Well assuming that Assange really did have any skeletons in the closet, now would be the time that they'd start coming out with all his recent time in the media spotlight. Of course it's also highly convenient for the people Assange has been embarrassing lately (namely the US government). I suppose maybe this lies in that I don't instantly translate making the government look bad as a sign of positive moral character.
Though Assange is certainly not going to be able to defend himself if doesn't subject himself to arrest in Sweden. |

We still don't really know what the specifics of the case was. If this really was extreme inept CIA bungling, I must wonder why Swedish law enforcement even had the warrant out for any length of time.

The douchebag has reached Al Gore and Kobe Bryant status.
*EDIT* To the numbskull who commented/repped the following: "Not reading the follow-up news, I see. Smear job 101." Kobe and Al Gore were found to not be responsible for what they were accused of or there was insufficient evidence. Apparently you have no clue what you're talking about...Idiot. No difference from the case of the douche bag propagandist. Last edited by Hage-bai; 2010-08-27 at 23:30. |

I'm waiting for the one-sided human rights psychos who are likely to complain of the police action on the gunman yet remain strangely silent for the lives of the people he gunned down.
We've been having a lot of those people in this country for years. It's such a shame really.

Edit: Though reading that article, I'm not sure why it's even relevant. The police didn't seem to do anything out of the ordinary. Surround the bus, negotiate, when the hostages seemed to be in danger move in. Looks like a by the book operation.

It only becomes an issue when the rights of the criminal override the rights of the victims and the debate switches to defending the criminals right's over that of the victims whose rights he has infringed upon. In the end the issue becomes muddled and while the criminals (dead or alive) and their defenders get their shot in the limelight, even the law and the media forget to focus on those who have really suffered in the tragedy because in the end, no amount of personal grievances justifies taking innocent lives. Honestly one has to live in this country to see the amount of pro-human rights whackjobs who gives human rights a bad name. Human rights of the innocent should always be taken into consideration first before a criminal's.
