Yebiga, Killarney,

So, because the narcissist has exposed the machinations of world capitalism, he should get off any rape charges ?

They used to call that 'opportunism'.

Oh, for goodness sake! Do you honesty believe that the political players in this game of sacrificial whistleblower-burning could give a flying rubber duck about whether or not two Swedish women were raped?

All the indications are that the women were initially only concerned with contacting Assange to obtain an STD test. Once the rape hysteria took on a life of its own, one of the women tried to withdraw, but was intimidated into continuing (shades of Monica Lewinsky, who was similarly intimidated).

Their lives and their personal safety and integrity have been brutally compromised. They receive death and rape threats on a continual basis. How they can ever live normal lives after this is anyone's guess.

So don't give me all your fake hand-wringing about Assange avoiding rape charges. This has never been about rape. It's just the same old story of men using women as disposable tools in their power struggles with other men.

Hi Killarney,

What's wrong with this sentence ?

'It's just the same old story of men using women as disposable tools in their power struggles with other men.'

Isn't that the point ?

Do the crime, do the time. IF, of course. How to know that ? Face a fair trial. And please don't give us any rubbish about how the evil Swedes will hand the narcissist over to the Yanks as soon as they get the chance.

Constance,

"....I am hearing more and more weird and sinister stuff daily."

That's bad, voices in the head could have some nasty clinical cause.
