OK, for the sake of not just swearing a lot and be amazed how apparently rational people can believe such idiot things
Shall we deal with these points one by one?

- his "assistant" is a serving member of the military and has been detained as such. Why? because they can. Personally, no, I don't like that, but what on earth has that to do with whether Assange raped someone or not?

- You know absolutely nothing (I am assuming, please correct me if I'm wrong) about Swedish judicial process, so how can you comment on this? And I seriously doubt any goverment regards Assange as a "threat". And even in the highly unlikely event these two women are "setting him up" (which isn't really the issue now, is it, becuase he's admitted to what he is accused of, via his lawyer) the Swedish judicial system clearly is not. So, he has nothing to fear from questioning if he isn't guilty. The Swedish legal system is widely held up as a model of fairness and honesty.

- you don't have the faintest idea when someone last pursued someone for rape like this because the newspapers don't bang on about it unless it is someone in the public eye. Extraditions for crimes much lesser than rape happen on almost daily basis.

I also forgot
he can't be extradited from Sweden or UK or anywhere fucking else in europe to face the death penalty. Not won't, or isn't likely, but CAN'T. given that "fear of facing the death penalty" is one of the legal bases of his spurious appeals against extradition to Sweden, he's at the very least a massive fucking liar.

Or an idiot. But probably both.
It concerns me that his lawyer went ahead with that one though, as it suggests he either doesn't understand the law himself, or is just parroting whatever Assange tells him to.

His lawyer "is just parroting whatever Assange tells him to"?
You know that lawyers have to follow their instructions right? That's sort of the basis of the whole thing.

Another fine legal mind.

not if they are fucking stupid, or involve breaking the law
I mean, they are supposed to follow instructions, but any half-decent lawyer would have told Assange the grounds for appeal were idiotic.

I dont agree with the 'death penalty' bit myself.
But I can see this is just an easy way to stop assange hooking up a PC with his wikileaks friends and continuing his project to expose the governments.

Its all a little bit too convenient.

Im not denying they had sex.. they did, they both admit that. But to come out and say he raped them, just hours after he was exposed as mr.wikileaks, is a tad rather suspicious.

Why didnt she exclaim at an earlier point? Why wait til the hour he is exposing the very people she was also working to expose?

how do you know when she reported it? you only know when the Swedish courts and press announced it
And it's not going to stop him being anywhere near a PC. This is Sweden. SWEDEN. not fucking China. He won't even be remanded in custody if he's charged, unless he demonstrated a massive flight risk. Oh, wait, the idiot fucker jumped bail and saught political asylum? Ah. bit of a problem there. Probably a flight risk after all. So, the only reason he'd be locked up awaiting trial is purely and totally down to his own stupidity. If that's a government seeking to silence someone they've got a seriously roundabout way of doing it.

What the actual fuck?
He'd been known as the founder of Wikileaks for fucking ages before this, and they can easily carry it on without him. It's not about stopping Wikileaks, it's about applying the justice system correctly because an accusation has been made.

He had
but the allegation came out at the peak of the wikileaks ability of headline hitting.

Im merely
showing you that his accomplice has already been arrested and silenced.

Which i believe is what is happening here. I think alot of people can also see it, hence his support.

It has nothing and everything to do with the rape.

Whether the Rape accusation is true or not... Assange will be held in jail... away from the press, wont be able to communicate, and any data he has will be destroyed whilst we wait for a trial.

They could of course kill him, but then - that attracts bad press, as we saw with that Russian guy with the radiation poisoning.

I agree, if has raped the girl - Then he is a massive dick.
(Dan dan dan They tik urh jerbs!!!, Tue 21 Aug 2012, 15:16, closed)

as I pointed out above
the only reason he would be held in jail is if he was a flight risk. Which he's just demonstrably shown he is. Making it a fairly odd conspiracy, don't you think, since it relies on him fucking everything up for himself?
