I Have No Words... The Rape Threads Meet The Authoritarian Threads...

80. Why the hell should they?

Would you expect other police departments to go out of their legal jurisdiction even into another country's where they have no legal power whatsoever and couldn't make an arrest?

The British court has spoken... quite some time ago. It was ruled that he be extradited to Sweden to answer to the Swedish justice system just like any other alleged rapist, and instead he chose to evade justice by imprisoning himself in a foreign country's embassy. His claims that Sweden only wants him so they can hand him over to the US has been self-serving rubbish since he first opened his lying mouth. If the US actually did want him it would be our closest ally Britain that would have quietly handed him over, but the US doesn't fucking want him, and that's abundantly obvious after all this time though it should have been obvious from the first. He's already spent more time imprisoning himself in the embassy than he likely ever wouldn't have had to spend in a Swedish prison were he to even been found guilty, but hey, he's been getting free room and board all this time on Ecuador's dime. It never was prison or extradition to the US that he was worried about anyway... it's been all about his public reputation.

Might be a good idea to check out the source as well. Assange works for a Russian tv station that is syndicated by the government backed RT.

Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks, unveiled a new talk show on Tuesday with his own version of a sensational get: the Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah.

Mr. Assange, whose show is carried by RT, a Kremlin-backed news network and Web site, boasted that it was Mr. Nasrallah's first interview in the West since 2006. And the two wanted men had a cozy chat, even though they weren't on the same couch or even on the same continent.

Yet you want to believe that as ridiculous as it is that these two women are likely lying about their claims just because of who they made them against. How could it possibly be proven they lied anyway, and why on earth would he not WANT to clear his name? He admitted from the start that he had sex with both women on the dates in question, and no one else was there to witness or film it just like most every other rape incident.
