Your narrative paints the two ladies as if they are as pure as the driven snow.

"....and seemed more than generous to him....."

Well, yes indeed, it appears they were.

Sorry, Poirot, I don't get your drift. Are you suggesting that the 'ladies', as you call them, (not 'sisters' ?) are not what they seem ? Yes, it certainly wasn't cricket for them to cast aspersions against our Hero of the People, to exploit his necessities and unfairly make him seem not to be the Hero that we know he is.

And we all know what Swedish women - 'ladies' (yuk, yuk) - are really like, we've seen the movies.

Yes, it's all an American plot, from even before Assange sought relief, a honey trap. Despicable Yanks ! And what is so cunning about it all is that there is not the slightest trace of evidence linking the US to those 'women' - devilishly clever ! That just goes to show how devious, and what utter b@stards, they are.

i.e. in the paranoid world of the faux left. Any comment, Poirot ?

Cheers,

Joe

No,

I'll leave you to your reasoning that "allegation" means "culpability" - and "questioning" means "charges". Seems to have about the same level of integrity as the Swedish conduct of this case.

Just one thing, Joe. and I know you think your sarcastic rejoinders are scintillating...but I really am over debating someone who "only" has recourse to such a low form of wit.

I won't be bothering anymore.

Cheers

Has anyone read Robert Manne's article about Assange. Although Assange required removal of some material, this article is still quite enlightening.

www.themonthly.com.au/julian-assange-cybher-punk-revolutionary-robert-manne-3081

My take is that Assange is extremely intelligent,has some good ideas, but is mentally undisciplined and, as with many very intelligent people, seems to lack common sense ... In addition, I suspect that others, who might have done the same, would have foreseen that Wikileaks as a vehicle for 'freedom on information' would have a very short life. Many did not find the revelations on Wikileaks surprising. The Pentagon Papers, which were released in June last year, were much more valuable.

Manne's article also showed that Assange has a very cavalier attitude towards women. Whether this would lead to rape in the right circumstances ...?

The full allegations again Assange are here:
