'Hunt for Assange on, Sweden a tool of US'

Swedish authorities have declined Ecuador's invitation to question Julian Assange in its London embassy - without any meaningful explanation, according to Wikileaks' twitter feed. The whistleblower has been holed-up in the Latin American country's diplomatic mission for over six weeks now, seeking asylum. Assange is wanted in Sweden for questioning over sex crime allegations which he denies. He believes proceedings may be just a pretext to hand him over to the US - where he fears prosecution on espionage charges for a massive leak of secret diplomatic and military files. Anti-war activist and journalist Don DeBar says Washington is on an all-out hunt for Assange, and is willing to sidestep international law to get him.

assange stole secret documents of the fascist american government

the american government is supposed to be by and for the people therefore there should be no secrets kept from the american people

assange didnt rape those women, he simply removed a condom. it was consensual

eventually all the fascist bankers, politicians puppets, and retarded hillbilly supporters like you will be ARRESTED EN MASS AND PUT IN PRISON FOR LIFE when the 99% take back control. enjoy your freedom while you can

"'called ' , not 'calls " ? right , he said that before knowing he was dealing with a 'no justice needed when doing a razzia for america" "

He said that before he F*ed a sleeping girl and ran from the subsequent rape charges.

"they beat the kgb AND the gestappo "

Then why aren't you out there cheering on Sweden for being brave enough to stand up to the US by doing an armed takeover of one of their CIA rendition jets?

well dont play that emotional blackmail in your last sentence on me lady . first thing is , that she objected to sex after the occasion hapend , for any reason possible . that is no rape and it never will be . second is that the woman is questionable in her behaviour , third is that swedish gouverment want him in the country to give him to the usa devil , fourth is that according to the press the lady only pressed charges after wikileaks got big and the lovemaking was weeks if not months ago

[KarenRei]

Yeah, that's why according to Wikileaks they had their special forces in 2006 disguise themselves as airport workers in order to *sieze a CIA plane* in order to stop the US rendition program through their territory, willfully creating a diplomatic rift? That'd be why their extradition treaty with the US is the most restrictive in all of Europe, and why Assange called Sweden his "shield" and was applying for a residence permit there, right?

[KarenRei]

Sorry, that's not the rape charge (it's not any charge). The rape charge is that, concerning who had spent the entire evening refusing unprotected sex with him (who had never in her life had unprotected sex, even with her previous BF of 2 1/2 years), he waited until she fell asleep in order to F* her unprotected.

Which is F*ing rape, and any of you who try to play it down should be ashamed.

[isitcosimblack]

[KarenRei]

He's hiding because of charges relating to something relating to "being raped", but not a government...
