(1,934 posts)and it shames the alleged victims and indeed all victims by not clearing up this matter asap by traveling the short distance to London to interview Assange just as investigators do so in a routine matter around the world.
I know a detective who investigate sex crimes and the victim id foremost in his minds and he will never extend the matter longer than necessary.
But any morsel is snatched up by Assange's detractors to weave a simple framework and deny the bigger picture.
so the fact he has already been interviewed and the claims dismissed by Sweden's chief prosecutor,
the fact Ecuador has every right and duty to investigate his fears and has concluded they are genuine at great diplomatic risk to them (but done lawfully) means naught.
the fact Bradley Manning has been basically mentally tortured for going on 2 years is an indication of nothing to Assange's detractors.
