Hard to believe you are completely unaware of the Rove connection in this case. It was certainly widely covered at the time.

Btw, whatever happened to Rove's subpoenas from Congress? Did he ever show up? We know he traveled to Sweden during that time as he tried to avoid those subpoenas.

Rove Might Be Trying To "Pull A Siegelman" With Julian Assange

Karl Rove was an adviser to his old friend and Swedish PM at the time Assange was in Sweden when these allegations first surface, naturally in one of Sweden's most rightwing news publications. After all charges were dropped, it seems someone wasn't happy.

The Rove allegations were all over the Swedish Media, which made poor Karl very angry along with his friend the PM. But if it looks like a duck, as the old saying goes.

What on earth was Rove doing in Sweden at that time?
