Tell him about the great facilities in Guantanimo Bay.

Clean beds, lots of America haters, he will love it.

I would too.

I reckon he's afraid of Vendor should he be extradicted back to the neutral land

I think there must be some substance to these charges or why would he fight so hard against extradition?

I highly dislike the guy, but will play devils advocate for a moment.

They could never get Al Capone on raqueteering, bootlegging, and murder. But they got him on tax evasion. ( Devils advocate over)

He is oppertunistic (sp) scum, please don't take this the wrong way.
Once again. I see the guy as a foreign agitator. Throwing gasoline on an already massive fire that he has no right to agitate. Let our citizens deal with American problems.
We got OWS and the tea party, whatever your flavor, both think something is wrong. We don't need you Julian. He only makes things worse.

Why is it he won't go back to his homeland of Australia? Now that's a question. What did he do there?

I'm honestly not sure if he is wanted there but don't forget....Australia is already a penal colony/prison

I think it's the good tasting high quality inexpensive beer.

I'd like to see him put on a flight and accidentally have it diverted to the US, someplace like Texas would be good. We could show him some southern hospitality, feed em a good meal, have a few brews, then give him a right proper hanging.

I don't see your point here dude. What does one have to do with the other?

I am saying he can be prosecuted for "whatever they can get on him" simply because he can't be charged for leaking the documents.

As I said, when the murder and raqueteering charges wouldn't stick on Capone, they went with tax evasion. Then gave him an over the top sentence, that tax evaders of the day typically did not get.

When you can't drag him back to the US and charge Assange with some kind of charge for leaking secret docs (espionage), then you get him for rape in an allied country.

I am not saying that is how it is, I was playing devils advocate.

I will say again. I dislike the guy, he is a weasel, and suffers from unwarranted self importance. He should marry Kim Kardashian.

Hmmm, well I find it difficult to believe that the Swedish government would have invented these charges just because the Obama administration ordered it.

Agreed....if charges have been brought and extradition requested he must go back to where the alleged crime or crimes took place to be tried by said countries judicial system.

I'm in no way making a judgement on his guilt or otherwise.

nevermind

Jimbuna · 11-17-11, 09:07 AM

He reckons he may not have the money to pay for further legal representation now

Jimbuna · 09-29-12, 01:50 PM

Ecuador asks whether Assange can leave their embassy to receive medical treatment, if he keeps his fingers crossed so it doesn't count...
