It does beg the question that if he is innocent, then why not just go to Sweden to face the charges? They only want to bloody question him anyway. I know he fears extradition to the US, but surely he knew the risks when leaking Top Secret info, whether it was perceived to be for the greater good or not. If he had dealt with this like a grown up, instead of playing cat and mouse, he could have got guarantees from the Swedes.
even if Assange is granted asylum, which he has not been

So lets get this straight, he did not rape the girl, he just lied about using a jimmy hat? If thats breaking the law i have been guilty a good few times myself and im sure there's a few million other people out there in the same boat!
I hope he somehow gets away, i would harbour him in an instant. This mans only crime is letting us know what "They" dont want you too!edit on 15-8-2012 by andy06shake because: (no reason given)

Julian Assange: UK issues 'threat' to arrest Wikileaks founder

The UK has issued a "threat" to enter the Ecuadorian embassy in London to arrest Julian Assange, Ecuador's foreign minister has said.
"If the measure announced in the British official communication is enacted, it will be interpreted by Ecuador as an unacceptable, unfriendly and hostile act and as an attempt against our sovereignty. It would force us to respond," he said.

He was, and this is why they are issuing this threat. He was granted immunity just recently.

Jesus, if this was a kiddy fiddler or he hadn't released some embarrassing cables, none of you would be defending him at all. It's only because he's seen to be some folk-hero (and he isn't) that you're all jumping up and down screaming "nazi's" and other BS...
