schestowitz"@Markus Döbele the stated reason Assange does not want to go to Sweden is he believes that when he arrives he will be deported to the US. His lawyer has apparently offered for him to go to Sweden of his own volition if the Swedish government will publicly commit to not extraditing him to the US. "Mar 25 05:09
qu1j0t3:|Mar 25 05:10
oiaohmqu1j0t3 and schestowitz the interesting thing is the case in england is currently time limited.Mar 25 07:07
oiaohmAgainst assangeMar 25 07:07
oiaohmMost people are not aware Assange will be running for the Australian senent that will give him diplomatic protection if he gets in and maybe just because he is running.Mar 25 07:08
oiaohmSo when that opens the case in england may be forced to end and him allowed to return to australia.Mar 25 07:08
qu1j0t3hehMar 25 07:16
qu1j0t3nice tryMar 25 07:16
oiaohmqu1j0t3: its a historic thing between australia and england at times people being reps of Australia had convitions in England.Mar 25 07:24
oiaohmOld historic things can cause warped legal things to happen.Mar 25 07:25
qu1j0t3i can't see any legal benefit whatsoeverMar 25 07:26
qu1j0t3besides, the USA has no legal beef with him.Mar 25 07:26
qu1j0t3they just want to shut him downMar 25 07:26
qu1j0t3law isn't involvedMar 25 07:26
oiaohmqu1j0t3: USA wants him to find out how exactly he got the docs.Mar 25 07:26
qu1j0t3you, uh, don't think they care about the lawMar 25 07:27
oiaohmqu1j0t3: and how he is still getting docs.Mar 25 07:27
qu1j0t3their objective is far simpler. they just don't want anyone publishing anything, and he's going to be the example.Mar 25 07:27
qu1j0t3and then after him, someone else.Mar 25 07:27
qu1j0t3ad infinitumMar 25 07:27
oiaohmYep if they can get hands on him.Mar 25 07:27
oiaohmUnder Australian law Assange has done nothing wrong.Mar 25 07:28
oiaohmSo if he can get back to Australia he is safe.Mar 25 07:28
qu1j0t3it's not clear he's done anything wrong under anyone's law, but that's irrelevant.Mar 25 07:28
oiaohmqu1j0t3: there is a case in Sweden that is not completed.Mar 25 07:28
oiaohmBut by Australian law it would have to be tried here first.Mar 25 07:28
oiaohmAnd would most likely fail big time.Mar 25 07:29
qu1j0t3no, he's no more safe there than any of the brits who are under the shadow of extradition on purely arbitrary grounds.Mar 25 07:29
qu1j0t3there's only one reason he's not deadMar 25 07:29
qu1j0t3and that's because public attention is focused on himMar 25 07:29
oiaohmqu1j0t3: if he becomes a Senator of Australia he gets diplomatic protection from the UK case. Mar 25 07:29
qu1j0t3however, this hasn't proved a true deterrent - ask JFKMar 25 07:29
oiaohmSo the UK case ends at that point.Mar 25 07:29
qu1j0t3oiaohm: is there a case in UK?Mar 25 07:29
qu1j0t3and do senators get retrospective immunity>?Mar 25 07:30
oiaohmThe case to send him to Sweden.Mar 25 07:30
qu1j0t3or any immunity?Mar 25 07:30
qu1j0t3oiaohm: far fetched.Mar 25 07:30
oiaohmWith Australian and UK use.Mar 25 07:30
oiaohmYesMar 25 07:30
qu1j0t3oiaohm: i don't see any of that working out.Mar 25 07:30
oiaohmThat goes back to historic of us being a prison for england.Mar 25 07:30
qu1j0t3all that's off the table, because USA wants him shut down.Mar 25 07:30
qu1j0t3and USA controls Australian government in every detail.Mar 25 07:31
qu1j0t3so...Mar 25 07:31
qu1j0t3besides, he can just have an accidentMar 25 07:31
oiaohmAn Australian rep cannot be held in england no matter what charge or what england wishes todo them.Mar 25 07:31
qu1j0t3how does that matterMar 25 07:31
qu1j0t3that's why they'll have him moved to sweden firstMar 25 07:31
oiaohmThey only have to middle of this year todo that.Mar 25 07:32
oiaohmBefore the run for senentors starts here.Mar 25 07:32
qu1j0t3if he returns to australia he's equally done forMar 25 07:32
oiaohmNo he is not.Mar 25 07:32
qu1j0t3heheMar 25 07:32
qu1j0t3well, wait and see :)Mar 25 07:32
qu1j0t3you forget who we're dealing withMar 25 07:32
oiaohmI have not.Mar 25 07:32
oiaohmAll I am saying is they are on a really limited time frame.Mar 25 07:33
qu1j0t3if they can install a republican in 2012 they can de-install an aussie senator.Mar 25 07:33
oiaohmbefore some nice old laws.Mar 25 07:33
qu1j0t3they have all the time in the worldMar 25 07:33
oiaohmKick in.Mar 25 07:33
qu1j0t3laws are irrelevantMar 25 07:33
qu1j0t3that lesson has been proven time and againMar 25 07:33
oiaohmTechically running for the Australian senent gives  the protection at that point.Mar 25 07:33
oiaohmSo he does not even have to win.Mar 25 07:33
qu1j0t3protection against what?Mar 25 07:34
qu1j0t3it makes him bulletproof?Mar 25 07:34
qu1j0t3extraditions from australia to USA occur frequently.Mar 25 07:34
qu1j0t3and USA runs AUstralia, so...Mar 25 07:34
qu1j0t3pretty weak protectionMar 25 07:34
oiaohmHe has to be allowed to return to Australia so he can run for his Senator seatMar 25 07:34
qu1j0t3dude, they shoot their own citizensMar 25 07:34
qu1j0t3he's NOT SAFE in Australia (or anywhere)Mar 25 07:35
qu1j0t3sadlyMar 25 07:35
oiaohmReally there is a issue.Mar 25 07:35
qu1j0t3it would be lovely if the law matteredMar 25 07:35
oiaohmWho commands half of the USA fleet.Mar 25 07:35
oiaohmThe big com base in AustraliaMar 25 07:36
oiaohmAustralia and USA are on far more level terms.Mar 25 07:36
qu1j0t3yes, i'm quite aware. Australia is a puppet state.Mar 25 07:36
oiaohmNoMar 25 07:36
qu1j0t3of strategic necessity.Mar 25 07:36
qu1j0t3it would be nice if that weren't so, sure.Mar 25 07:36
oiaohmUSA plays it that way.Mar 25 07:37
oiaohmAustralia is not that simple.Mar 25 07:37
oiaohmHere is the fun thing about Australian laws stealing data from usa that is in Australias best interest is not against the law.Mar 25 07:38
oiaohmAustralia is less of a puppet that an lot think qu1j0t3Mar 25 07:38
oiaohmOur media is allowed to enter more countries than usa media due to requirements to report correctly.   If they don't who ever has not can charge them here.Mar 25 07:39
qu1j0t3Iraq nailed thatMar 25 07:40
qu1j0t3game overMar 25 07:41
oiaohmAustralia not a puppet reasons why Australia does things might not seam clear.  Biggest producer of legal Opium poppy is AustraliaMar 25 07:41
qu1j0t3pity, but at least we knowMar 25 07:41
oiaohmSo Afghanistan is removing competition in the market to one of Australia exports. Mar 25 07:42
oiaohmUSA does not grow Opium poppy.Mar 25 07:42
oiaohmIRAQ australia was paid in arms.  qu1j0t3Mar 25 07:42
oiaohmNeither war did Australia enter for free.Mar 25 07:43
oiaohmqu1j0t3: of course you forget east temor where USA told Australia to stay out.Mar 25 07:45
oiaohmqu1j0t3: that did not happen.Mar 25 07:45
oiaohmqu1j0t3: but to protect our region we needs more arms.Mar 25 07:46
oiaohmqu1j0t3: So its not Australia obeying USA is just USA having good timing to be able to provide what Australia required.Mar 25 07:47
