    "But Assange's most pressing headache is Sweden. Swedish prosecutors have issued an International and European Arrest Warrant (EAW) for him in connection with rape allegations..." I'm happy to accept the article got it wrong, but if so, can you please provide a reliable source for your assertion.

    It's time for the gloves to come off... These people don't care how many people die as a result of their rampages.

    Soldiers kill thousands of innocent civilians and you say "oh, it doesn't matter, it's just collateral damage". An organisation leaks some heavily redacted information, putting maybe a handful of informants in possible danger (although no deaths have been attributed), and suddenly you care about responsibility towards human life?!?

    I can't mod u up, so I gotta quote. GOOD POINT HERE! READ IT AGAIN!

    DON'T POINT FINGERS AT THE GUY CALLING YOU OUT. LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND FIX THE PROBLEM.

    SECRETS ARE ANTI-DEMOCRACY; YOU HAVE NO CONTROL AND WOULD NEVER HAVE APPROVED. HOW IS THAT JUSTIFIED?
