obby "A legal friend who has taken a lot of interest in this case has told me that this charge has never been proven in a Swedish Court."

Which may go some way towards explaining why the particular personalities in that country have gone out of their way to make this a highly public test case.  What better opportunity than a celebrity like Assange?

That country warrants a travel alert for men.

Australia has headed down the same radical feminist path led by ministers like Nicola Roxon.  Snuggle up to the wife and kiss her can be construed as sexual assault.  She using a popular and well proven way of waking you for your birthday could be deemed rape.

Few members of the public understand what changes the Nicola Roxons in government have been beavering away on and on their behalf.  

It is typical of the public to pooh pooh the effect of extensions of the law as most might have done in Sweden, until the radical feminist architects of the changes choose the timing for a test case.

What everyone has been silent on as well is the unfair and inevitable weighing of the odds against the man by naming and frequently shaming him.  That applies to any alleged sexual assault.  The media and the usual suspects among columnists laying his personal life and family up to public examination and scurrilous gossip.  Even where there a court says the man has no case to   answer the stain of the vile allegations last forever.  After all, it is impossible for a woman to lie about rape, or so the matra goes.

Jenny Brockie (Insight) and the ABC have never done a program about the lasting devastation a false or mistaken accusation of rape or sexual assault has on a man and his loved ones. 

I wonder though, how many of the serially outraged (against men) understand and can explain the changed definition/s of rape in Australia, let alone Sweden.  Some words about the trend towards sexual assault allegations against child 'offenders' could be included.

Robby , if only he would stop hiding behind the ecudorian embassy and come clean , you dont hide behind anather countrys doors if your inocent , and stop knocking the usa , yes they have plenty of bad points and so does most countries , but god help us if they wernt on our side , would you  Robby like to side up wih such countries  like iran or syria and the like , ill say again DEAL WITHTHE DEVIL YOU KNOW RATHER THAN THE ONE YOU DONT ,!!!!!!

hhnash47 , could you please inform me as to what crime Mr Assange has committed.

well auntie mabell i reallycant tell you yet but as im sure you know theres no smoke without fire , and i wont acuse any one without a fair trial , but if you read between the lines britain wants to extridite him ,sweeden wants him for sex crimes and the us for leaking top millarty docos , isent that enough to convince all of us , or do you want more , if so we all will just have to be paitaint and wacth how all this unfolds , in the meantime the media is making a matzo , and tell me please uniie mabell ,you sign of with a pici of the irion lady , ill tell you this much if you admired her so much , do you know what she would do if she was pm , shed go in there herself and get him out , cast your mind back to the falklands war and what she did , and so on and so forth , so you maybe now see why asage is hinding behind a spanish speaking nation , sit tight untie , the ride has just begun !!!!!

hhnash47, Auntie Mabel has asked a very legitimate question.  Assange is certainly dealing with the devil he knows.  He more than most humans still alive knows the American devil & how it acts.  Remember that he released 1,000s' of highly sensitive documents that are only an embarassment to America, because they prove what that devil is capable of.  He has nothing to answer in Sweden, otherwise they would have charged him.  If he goes to Sweden, he will be questioned for an hour then dismissed quite freely into the hands of agents of the CIA or Homeland Security & he will be doomed.  Under International Law, America cannot charge him with any offence against American Law, if he was not in residence at the time of the so called offence.  That's why they created places like Quantanamo Bay.  What happened to Jaime Roldos Aquilera when he upset the USA?  What happened to Omar Torrigos when he dared to argue with the Reagan over Panama Canal interests?  I am not knocking the USA, I am stating worries about some traits of the devil I know.  You should lift your blinkers & have a little read of Perkin's book,  "Confessions of an Economic Hit Man".  While you are at it, have a read of Psalm 149:7  of the New American Bible, which has been altered to now read "to execute vengeance on the Nations & punishment on the Peoples"!!!!  If JA goes to Sweden, he is doomed.  Even if he doesn't, I would not be taking any bets on his life expectancy.

MY god nobby you have certainaly got it in for the yanks ,why dont you have a look at manny other countries that dont do anything right in the way of democracy ect ect , also you seam a verry read man also intelergent educated al that goes in being a good back seat lawer , lets just all cool it and see how things turn out and then you can start trowing stones and the like , but if i may please add , if you had some secreat docos that you did not want any one to see , and i or whoever stole them and gave them out how would you react , ??????????

Robby is the name hhnash47.  You are talking unmitigated tripe.  I happen to love America & the American people, with the possible exception of some of the occupants of Washington DC.  You blindly go on & on.  Assange did not steal anything.  He legally bought information from an American Soldier at a time that he was not on American soil, therefore it was a legal contract.  Let me tell you that I have been robbed many times in my life in business dealings.  I have been able to identify many of the perps, BUT, I have never sent any of them to Quantanimo Bay or approved their torture,  nor have I waited until they & their innocent family & friends have been on a plane that I would blow out of the skies. I would expect nothing more in some of the Countries you list, but not in the land of the free.  As Auntie asked, what law did he break & what has he been charged with?

hnash says "and tell me please uniie mabell ,you sign of with a pici of the irion lady"

Whoa , you mean there is someone else that looks like me ?

Very true uniie, but don't worry, she is in dememtia & even you can't insult her any more

You have missunderstood seth.  Auntie is OK. (as far as women go)  It is the look alike in England that has started rambling a little.  Bear in mind that is a pic of Auntie NOW, whereas the English look alike hasn't looked like that for 25 years.  I trust that our old bird, on here, will update her pic every couple of years, just as a matter of honesty, at least until we see dementia setting in here too.  You will note that whilst she keeps on agreeing with me, there is no real problem.

Thanks for that robby, I feel a lot better, There is always trouble coming out of england, I hear there are boats filling up with refugees, along the English coast and will head for Australia as soon as nauru is filled.

I noticed that she was softening in her attitude to you, It seemed at first like mutual attraction, but on seeing you call her 'the 'old bird' I don't think it will last.

well robby if thats the case you must be a extreamly trustworthy,  fellow ,and for somone who loves the yanks you have only just said it , but you can please some of the peopole some of the time but not all the time , any way lets not start anather war ,you have your opinion and i have mine thats free speach , thank god for that , if you lived in rusia or iran they would proberly locked you and me up for this little chat so shall we give it a rest for now or do you want to make a freindly bet on the outcome of asage !

gee seth,  she looks old,  have I stuffed up?  Don't worry, if she is as old as she looks, she probably wont pick it up.
