Julian Assange, the director of WikiLeaks, recently revealed secret information about several world leaders such as Obama and Putin. While the revelations did not contain very important or secret information, authorities issued an arrest warrant for Assange related to sexual abuse charges in Sweden after he announced plans to reveal information about an American bank. Assange's lawyers are appealing his extradition to Sweden due to concerns that he could then be extradited to the United States to face charges from the White House in relation to WikiLeaks' publications exposing information about U.S. foreign activities and wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
