Is this how they flirt in Australia? Assange wont back off from teenage girl.

This is another piece that will be used by those who have decided that Assange can do no right, to assail him.

But if left liberals can suddenly turn and stand with Palin and talk about sometimes being right, then the thesis is wrong: Assange can do right, just as he can do wrong. It behooves us to examine what he's done, what he's accused of, and assess it not as a lump but in pieces.

Jumping on the hate wagon is playing into the hands of powers that believe in oppression more than rights. Making a blanket defense is jumping on the wagon of the anarchists. Neither is healthy, nor helpful.

When you believe America can do no wrong, how can you really call yourself a serious person? Palin isn't serious, except maybe to white trash and right wing lunatics.

Guess what? Any time you side with the USA, no matter what the issue is, you're siding with Palin.

The story clearly has many angles and possibilities.

"We understand that both complainants admit to having initiated consensual sexual relations with Mr Assange. They do not complain of any physical injury. The first complainant did not make a complaint for six days (in which she hosted the respondent in her flat [actually her bed] and spoke in the warmest terms about him to her friends) until she discovered he had spent the night with the other complainant.

"The second complainant, too, failed to complain for several days until she found out about the first complainant: she claimed that after several acts of consensual sexual intercourse, she fell half asleep and thinks that he ejaculated without using a condom – a possibility about which she says they joked afterwards.

"Both complainants say they did not report him to the police for prosecution but only to require him to have an STD test. However, his Swedish lawyer has been shown evidence of their text messages which indicate that they were concerned to obtain money by going to a tabloid newspaper and were motivated by other matters including a desire for revenge."

Okay.

OTOH, one has to look at the reasoning involved, and the way things are expressed. When it descends into the same black/white blanket condemnation, it's more than just "siding with the USA".

On the one hand, it's hard not to cheer for Assange.

OTOH, even for a geek he's clueless.

It isn't a blanket condemnation. I, from the beginning, have written in favor of the leakings relating to the misinformation we were fed. I can't do a full search now on my phone, but I think I was the one who made the thread about the AP reporter being killed in Iraq by trigger happy soldiers.

The more though that comes out, I realize that this graying bastard gets some type of sick enjoyment out of this. Frankly it is creepy like an uncle hugging you for a second too long.

Yep. It was me that posted the original Wikileaks thread. http://www.justusboys.com/forum/showthread.php?t=302392&highlight=Iraq

And who was the first one here to support the original leak?

Now who's making blanket condemnations of people?

uh, sorry but a 19-year-old is NOT a "teenage girl"
fail

"Teen" is an abbreviation for those numbers with "teen" at the end.

Spell it: nine TEEN.

Poor Julian doesn't like it when people bring up the fact that he likes to hold down young girls and have sex with them against their will.

You're gone for a while, and come back and start out with two lies?

Not good for your credibility.
