      So Assange is going to grace the world and address common minions from the balcony like Evita Peron? #CircusSideshow

      @bmaz While stupid, people are coming out for him and acknowledging and speaking to them is not scummy.

      @bmaz No. He shouldn't. Sorry. The second Sweden swears not to extradite him, he'll lose almost all support. Till then, No.

      @iwelsh That is a completely disingenuous sham position because under multiple treaties+compacts Sweden cant make promise w/o US consent.

      @bmaz Then he doesn't go there. Sorry. I don't trust Sweden or the US, neither does he and if you do you're being foolish.

      @iwelsh So, do all international criminals+fugitives get this novel excuse, or just the Great Assange? A law for only one is a law for none

      @bmaz While you're talking about law, remind me of the law that allows the govt to launch DNS attacks against media outlets w/no warrant.

      @emptywheel There is no such law; but one crime does not absolve another.

      @bmaz I see. So you agree the government has already illegally attacked Wikileaks?

          @emptywheel Yes, so stipulated. Not that such was part of my original point, but sure. And never intimated otherwise despite your inference.

          @bmaz If the government has already illegally persecuted Wikileaks, is it not reasonable to assume they intend to do so going forward?

          Replying to @emptywheel

          @emptywheel Yes. Again, though, that is not really germane to valid on its face legal process from Sweden on rape allegations.

          @bmaz @emptywheel Sweden did illegal extrajudicial renditions for the US in the past. No one has been punished. Why won't they do it again?

          @iwelsh @emptywheel So has the UK, which was just hunky dory for Assange; this is just another impertinent excuse.
