Anyone got time & knowledge here?

The Swedish case against Assange needs to be written up, but I don't think I can do so neutrally.

My sympathies are entirely with Assange. As I see it, these two women both jumped into bed with him within a day or so of meeting, both were seen in public apparently on good terms with him afterward, and both bragged about their conquest. Any accusation of rape is absurd. The prosecutors first dropped the charges, then re-instated them. The whole thing strikes me as nonsense.

I'd say the Daily Mail story is the best summary I have seen. Sandy Harris 05:32, 9 December 2010 (UTC)
