Maybe Russia hasn't changed but the USA sure has.

Half of you point a finger at Putin whilst ignoring the US stance on Assange.

Did Assange not exercise his right to freedom of speech and expression just like Pussy Riot?

All the made up crap about him putting lives at risk is turning out to be just that, crap.

If Russia or China did a Guantanamo The UN would be up in arms.

Hypocrisy on all levels.

The stance that rapists should see trial?

Outside that there isn't any offical stance on Assange.

1) The man is ACCUSED of rape in Sweden. Could be fabricated rubbish claims or could be true. You don't know.

2) What are you talking about? The USA want's Assange extradiated from the UK not for being accused of rape but for "spying", which carry a death penalty.

1) Any claims could be fabricated rubish claims, I don't see your point.  He should stand trial, and the evidence seems VERY strong.

2) Untrue.  There are no extradision claims for Assange to the US.

Furthermore, the claim that they are waiting for him to be transfered to sweden is the DEFINITION of fabricated rubbish claims because the United States has a stronger extradition treaty with the UK then it does Sweeden.

If the US wanted him extradited.  He would of already been extradited.

"The evidence against Assange is very strong". Funny that, a whole lot of lawyers in Europe don't think that way but you are entitled to your opinion. He won't stand trial because of extradition to the US fears. The Swedish government have given him no guarantees. They can't because they know the US wants him contrary to what the US tell the public. Why can't the Swedish govenrmnet simply say "come back, face charges and we won't extradite you"?

The evidence that the US wants Assange was revealed the same way that all the other stuff on wikileaks was leaked. All the other stuff so far seem to be true so why not this? Just because the US publically deny they don't want him doesn't make it so.

Why would Sweden make a statemnet saying they would not extradite him to the US if faced with the death penalty if all this US extradition talk is nonsense?

Euro law states that if a person faces the death penalty they do not have to extradite him to the USA so your claim of "If the US wanted him extradited.  He would of already been extradited" is ... not factual.
