Assange turned out to be a coward

147. Well

in terms of Drug policy, Sweden is the "prostitute" (to quote your word) of US and in many aspect worse than the master. Swedish drug policy is not based on facts and reality, but turned into collective hysteria, state religion and police state that does not tolerate differing views. And it is causing lots of unnecessary suffering.

Cooperation with CIA renditions and Rove connection to the ruling party have been mentioned enough times so I'm sure you are aware of them.

There are suspicions that one of the woman involved - with former CIA connections - may have been a honey trap, but of course we don't really know. That does not say anything general about Swedish women. It has been established that the many of the Swedish legal officials that have taken over the case have close connections to US, which has created reasonable suspicions over their motives and intentions.

Swedish legal system has been criticized in general - as it deserves - as well as the sexist and chauvinist man-hating branch of "feminism" that has become quite common in Sweden many of the Swedish officials involved in this case represent, starting from Minister of Justice.

I live in Finland, next to Sweden. I don't know what is your connection to Sweden, but you give the appearance that you are some how participant to Swedish national collective ego, which is very frail and touchy and currently even more unstable as usual.

I've seen that there are many DUers critical of Assange, for personal dislike and/or critical of his journalistic work, but count as "Assange's supporters" in the regard that they don't think that he deserves to end up tortured by US. And that as long as there is reasonable doubt that Sweden could turn him over to US custody and Sweden does not give guarantees otherwise, consider that Assange has every right to avoid Sweden and seek asylum in Ecuador, and that Ecuador's decision to grant asylum is humane and responsible. If that makes Sweden look bad, tough. Sweden makes it own bed and my advice is to get of the high horse, take a reality check and good look in the mirror.
