Russian Response to WikiLeaks

While the world is finding that the United States may not be such an imperialist power seeking world domination after all, WikiLeaks has announced new plans. I'm pretty sure that the people who want to believe the U.S. is an evil entity will continue to believe so, regardless of the pleas by Bahrain and Saudi Arabia to "deal" with Iran. Sweden is taking more action than the U.S. with a warrant for the arrest of Julian Assange. Whether the allegations in Sweden are bogus are disputed. But what I personally find interesting is the Russian dynamic. The Russians have a history of dealing with these kinds of things with swiftness and brutality. Consider all of the journalists that have died in Russia over the last few years. My recommendation for Mr. Assange is that if he survives the Russians, he should go after the Mexican cartels next.
