#JulianAssange SHOULD be protected from extradition under the very treaty the extradition case against him is being brought - Article 4 (1). Charged in the US under 18 USC Chapter 37 titled Espionage And Censorship, he is not legally elligible for extradition.
1. Espionage, a crime against the state, is a political offense.
