Assange reveals GCHQ messages discussing Swedish extradition

[99th_Monkey]

7. Fair question, but as I understand it, the women involved never intended to file a complaint

and do not want charges brought against Assange for rape or for any other reason.
This certainly appears to be a classic "sexual smear" campaign, driven by Obama's
obsession with secrecy and determination to criminalize whistle-blowing.

I might be wrong, but that's how it looks to me.

It's fascinating googling around about this, you find the darndist things:

Green carefully leaves out that neither of the complainants made allegations of rape against Julian Assange.

The language is phrased to omit mitigating details. Omitted are:
>The fact that the complainants did not visit the police to report a crime, but to get advice.
>The fact that the police "treated their visit as the filing of complaints."
>Green's language sanitizes the record of the involuntary nature in which the complaints were made. Interviews of witnesses confirm that neither complainant intended to report crimes. SW's police statement records how she terminated the interview when she discovered that the police were treating it as the filing of a formal report for rape. AA's police statement clearly states that the sex described was consensual. The investigation continues today in part because of the politician Claes Borgström, who intervened in the case to have himself assigned as state attorney to the complainants. He claims that whether AA and SW believe they were wronged is irrelevant, because neither of them is a lawyer. These and numerous other mitigating details abound. Green expunges them, in favour of slogans calling for "justice for the two women."
