While an fellow Australian, I am against Juilian Assange. There stuff that people shouldn't know, if there were no serects the fabric of global society would collapse into chaos. So releasing military documents from the US, UK ect are going to have alot of stuff on on China, Russia vice versa. and this is how wars can start people, i dont think Julian was thinking that leaking serect miltary documents could start some unwanted tenison between global super powers.
So overall He should not be executed because that is not an harsh punishment, but instead locking in an room with no communication with tonnes of serect documents and when he does talk to someone they turn around and say " are you man". He will then go into insanity because no one beleives him.
Of Course That's Just My Opinion, I Could Be Wrong
