Breaking news! Julian Assange, the anti-American blockhead who's publishing hundreds of thousands of documents stolen from the US government, has been arrested in England on a Swedish warrant that accuses him of rape of some kind. Apparently he had consensual sex with someone without a condom. Apparently that's what passes for rape in Sweden. Oh well....
I do believe Assange's problem is that he just pushed things a little too far. One thing to try to embarrass the USA, but along with exposing private communications from US officials, Assange also embarrassed the people they communicated with -- officials from all over the world. And most countries in the world aren't anywhere near as tolerant as the USA. But the real kicker was Assange claiming "Look Ma! I'm king of the world!" No sorry, that was Jimmy Cagney in "White Heat"...
Actually, Assange made the public statement that if anyone came after him, well, he has 250,000 more private documents he's stolen that he could release if anyone threatened him.
Sorry, you silly-ass dingo, but you're dealing with actual governments here, and not many of them very mindful of your human rights. You draw a line in the sand -- they'll step over it and show you just exactly who is the boss. And the USA doesn't even have to be involved in that.
Assange is an idiot. The real question is, who would have consensual sex with him? I mean he's obviously the kiss-n-tell type.
Who knows, maybe he'll end up in Gitmo with his spiritual soulmates. I do believe if Assange is indicted here on espionage or something that he could be extradicted here for trial. And I suppose that means he'd have to submit to the final humiliation -- undergoing a "porn scan' or an "enhanced" pat-down by TSA people as he boards a plane for the USA. 'Course Assange would probably like that; he seems to be something of an exhibitionist.
Save the Republic.
