STOCKHOLM – Swedish prosecutors said they will seek an international arrest warrant for WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange after a court approved their request Thursday to detain him for questioning in a rape case.
The Australian is suspected of rape, sexual molestation and unlawful coercion in an investigation that stems from his encounters with two women during a visit to Sweden in August.
He has denied the allegations and insisted his sexual relations with the women were consensual.
His lawyers lashed out at Swedish investigators Thursday, saying Assange had offered to be questioned before he left Sweden and later in Britain, in person or by phone, videoconferencing, e-mail, or to make a sworn statement.
"All of these offers have been flatly refused by a prosecutor who is abusing her powers by insisting that he return to Sweden," said Mark Stephens, Assange's British lawyer. He added that the allegations were "false and without basis."

If we can't catch his ass, lets pay Sweden a shiton of money and fabricate a rape story to get people's sympathy.
Fucking genius. :thumbsup:
Gotta love the fucking U.S.
This is what happens when you leak top secret information. I hope he dies in prison. Fuck that faggot.
Why? It puts the war effort in danger. When people end up dead because Assange just had to make a point will you still support it?
By 2020 our government will go bankrupt, and I am happy about that. It's time for a change: it's quite obvious that a representative democracy doesn't work. We need a direct democracy, in where the people vote on every law. When our country was founded that wasn't possible, but now we have the internet. With that comes instant online polls. Simply send a poll to every registered voter and boom; a government actually run by the people for the people. Not just a charade.
Direct democracy would fail harder than almost any form of government. The majority of the American people are stupid as shit so I wouldn't want them having that kind of power. It would be no better than mob rule. To me representative democracy or a single party state is the only route that works.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA! Is our government not proof enough it doesn't?
Introduce an IQ test in order to serve at any level of government. If your IQ is below 110, you cannot hold public office. Say goodbye to stupid politicians.
Politicians are far from stupid. It's the greed that corrupts them, that filthy green note.
Then because there wouldn't really be any checks balances since theres so senators or congress what would prevent this from becoming a really weird oligarchy type thing where the intelligent can rule and pass laws as they please while everyone else has no say?
Aye. Ben Franklin once remarked, "Democracy is the tyranny of a majority".
Still support Wikileaks all the same.
Very true. Without checks and balances Tyranny is unavoidable.
