You're getting down voted because you're focusing on the wrong thing.

Assange may have tweaked the eagle's beak, but publishing the leaks is the least of his worries and he actually does have strong protection here and could very well fight that thanks to Ellsberg.

The truth is that if Assange isn't paranoid, then there is some merit to the claim he assisted Manning, which is an illegal act.
