There will be no bail for Julian Assange, the Wikileaks founder who revealed the United States thinks Germany’s foreign minister Guido Westerwelle is a not-to-be-trusted “wild card,” who turned himself in to British authorities to face rape allegations. He’ll sit in a jail cell at least until his next extradition hearing Dec. 14. As if he can’t humiliate world leaders remotely.

Still not rape allegations. The charges are “sex by surprise”, a Swedish-only offense for promising to wear a condom and then failing to do so.
There is no assertion that the sex itself was non-consensual.

Tip: If “who turned himself in to British authorities” refers back to “Julian Assange”, don’t put a huge glob of language between the two.
The art of writing is dead nowadays.

He is a hero of democracy. The attempts to discredit his name are truly pathetic. He has already been cleared of these fake charges.
I think he should release EVERYTHING he knows.
It’s clear the world governments don’t give a shit about democracy. Fair enough, that’s hardly a surprise. But why do they get so offended when this is confirmed?
