Is this new? It doesn't seem to say on the page when this was issued.

I hope they get inundated by "information" about this criminal. Here, look, he gave an interview to Forbes just yesterday.

I know that it is easy to dismiss this case as having political motives, but the facts at the moment are that two women have complained of sexual assault and have named Assange as the perpetrator.

Until we hear or learn more or he faces these charges it should be taken at face value and justice should be allowed to prevail and run its course.

The right thing for him to do would be to go back to Sweden and face the charges, otherwise this issue will be continuously used to denigrate wikileaks and the information.

Imagine the media with each instance of 'Julian Assange, Wikileaks spokesperson' suddenly being replaced with 'International Fugitive, Julian Assange, Wikileaks spokesperson'

I think he would like that.

With nearly every country that Assange has ties with being pressured by the US and other mighty powers affected by Wikileaks, do you think the real truth would come out? Justice departments and public prosecutors are run by the state, after all. If they can find two women to accuse Assange for rape, can they not find a jury to convict him?

This case would appeared a little less staged if the alleged rape had occurred in Assange's past. Isn't it the least bit suspicious that the alleged rape occurred soon after the Collateral Damage video leak? Assange doesn't strike me as an idiot... do you really think he would go about raping someone when he expects trouble?

Whatever event actually occurred, the fact remains that governments are making fools of themselves by trying to suppress Wikileaks through these heavy-handed measures to arrest Assange. In that regard alone, I support him.

i think its important to stress that Assange is just the public face of the wikileaks organization. Bringing him down wont stop the leaks in any way.
