I'm sorry, but you don't get to apply US laws to foreign reporters. Holder's incompetence was in trying to get him jailed in the first place, instead of dealing with low military morale and leftards in the military.
If the English think they can charge him with endangering British troops, that is their business, not ours.
Kristopher beat me to it. You can nail his American co-horts but just like Iran can't have our gays hung because it's their law, we can't go to another country and tag someone with our laws.
We can, however, have the little fucker shot. And if we had a president with balls we would have...
We most certainly can charge and extradite him.

Seems to me, the barracks lawyer, that non US citizen Assange has no First Amendment or any other US Constitutional rights.
And that if Great Britain or any other country with which we have an extradition treaty wants to give him to us, we can damn sure try him under our laws once he is here. Suppose he had robbed $10 million from a bank in NYC and murdered a cop and some hostages in the process, then fled to Sweden? Surely he could be prosecuted here if we could extradite him. No different than stealing or posessing US government property and harming the national security of the US by distributing that property.
Prosecute him, imprison him, pour encourager les autres. If his deed proves to be patriotic by revealing criminalty, incompetence or treason on the part of State Department employees, and is aimed at just that and not wholesale revelation of State secrets, then the whistleblower statute will protect him.
Same for that PFC who stole the docs. He'd make a good bitch for somebody in Leavenworth.
