What Wikileaks did is probably the tip of the iceberg. I think that in the future there will be even more leaks, and bigger than this. One of these days somebody will release encryption keys for the Pentagon, the CIA, MI5, etc. Then entire networks will be compromised. All it takes is somebody who does not agree with the system. Going after the Wikileaks people will probably just make it worse. Now people will see the system as oppressive and controlling. It might just make things worse.

rod03801: They tried that in WWII.. The French resistance is an example of those who would be tortured in the collecting/sending of info the Germans.

.... When a certain Chinese pilot (think I remember his nationality right) landed a MIG and through that action divulged USSR top secret technical data... was he handed back?

.. As a matter of observation. If the UK courts via an application by the likes of the MOD thought Assange was really causing major concerns to UK security. He'd be up on charges of treason.

... He ain't.
