Breaking into an Embassy would indeed be an act of war, however i am sure England is capable of generating enough pressure to finally make Ecuador kick Assange out. And if not, some bully will find a way to deport or abduct him later, or plain kill Mr. Assange. Certainly, he is now well-known, so they have to make him a villain first.

A bit OT:

I stilll wonder where the outcry is, about what has leaked out. I mean there is enough stuff to fire high brass and topple governments, from atrocities against international law to secret plans violating everything a "democracy" stands for.
Instead it has become a man hunt trying to shoot the messenger

Also if you speak the truth because you think you have to, they will call that treason, and for them it certainly is. But most whistleblowers did not want to speak out against America, but for the America they think it should be, based on law and own national claim, following the constitution.

This witchhunt against anyone daring to say that a government uses illegal methods violating international law, is just the bullying reaction of a bunch of criminals caught in the act, red-handed, and has not much to do with military secrets. "Retaliatory punishment" itself would also be illegal b.t.w..
