If Governments were really after the truth it is clear that they would prosecute all the crimes shown in the leaks, not just the person who helped the leaks come out
Except that the crimes are only in your own head.
Sweden is an ally of the US and if they wanted they could have protested for the crimes.
The was no crime.
No, the non-prosecution for a non-crime by soldiers from a country other than Sweden has zero to do with Sweden wanting to prosecute Assange for allegedly committing a crime in Sweden. If you can't understand this basic fact then we are going nowhere fast.
Completely irrelevant.
Sweden is an ally of the US
Sweden could have protested
Protested about what? The US not prosecuting soldiers for not committing a crime?
There is the moral requirement
So all countries should now stop their courts from doing anything because some other country hasn't prosecuted someone else? That's what you are saying.
Ridiculous.
They did as shooting to civilians is a crime
No it's not ridiculous, it's the law. Shooting civilians during a military engagement is not always a crime no matter how much you want it to be. It is a crime to deliberately shoot civilians who you have identified as civilians. That is not what occurred in this case.
The law on this is pretty simple. ALL armed forces must be in uniform, must have visible insignia, and must not operate in a way to deliberately endanger civilians. The militants broke the law by dressing like civilians and operating in civilian areas, thus putting them in danger. They are the ones that put the civilians in the line of fire, they are the ones that are responsible. It's that simple.
In this case the militants were dropped off by a van that was similar to the one that arrived shortly after the firing and attempted to evacuate the militants. The helicopter crew had no way of determining civilian from militant. Nor did they have any way of determining who in the group was militant and who was a reporter. The militants created this confusion deliberately, hiding in the general population against the rules of war. They were the ones breaking the law, and the deaths that resulted were entirely their fault. You might not like that, but it is what the International Laws of War say, and that is what determines if a crime occurred or not. The Law says it didn't.
Since when Governments care about what is written in the laws?
You better hope that they do, else you have no security at all. What stops your government taking your house and belongings without compensation? What stops the police kicking in your door and searching your home for no reason? What stops the Tax department draining your bank accounts? What stops the Government having you arrested and thrown into jail if not the Law?
You say this as you trust very naively the legal system of both Sweden and the US.
So we should let out all the people currently held in jail because you don't trust the legal system?
You are saying that "has nothing to do".
How do you know that it has nothing to do?
Why do you trust Governments so naively?
It has zero to do with trusting governments, it has to do with evidence, and so far not one person who has given an opinion that the prosecution is political has been able to back up that opinion with any solid evidence that can be investigated. A million opinions equals nothing but speculation, and speculation is worthless. Give us something real and not just a bunch of opinions.
We have been over this multiple times, you don't acknowledge it, you don't change your mind on it, you don't even seem to understand it.
Let me say it again. The allegations have nothing to do with a broken condom.
Let me say it again so you understand. The allegations have nothing to do with a broken condom.
The allegations are that Assange took advantage of woman's condition to start sexual intercourse with her in a way that he knew she had already stated was unacceptable. You even agreed that the scenario of which Assange is accused would be rape.
Let me say it again so you understand. The allegations have nothing to do with a broken condom. They have to do with Assange committing a rape.
Once again here is the evidence:
Sadly no, what you are about to do is give us a heap of opinion. Opinion is not evidence.
if the Swedish Government were really after the truth and against crimes, why they did not produce a formal complain when her ally the US had some of their soldiers commit atrocities?
Opinion and irrelevant and incorrect opinion at that
Why they did not severe their military alliance or at least issue a strong complain when no WMDs were found in Iraq?
Not even opinion, this is a question. Opinions aren't evidence and questions certainly aren't. I suggest you buy yourself a dictionary and look up the word "evidence" because you keep using this word and I know it doesn't mean what you think it means.
If they did not, it means that they are not after justice and truth and it is all politics, therefore the suspect that they are after Assange, who has commit way minor crimes in comparison, for the leaks and not for the rapes, stands.
Opinion, jumping to conclusions, speculation at its worst, apart from that, it’s also a total non-sequencer.
If you really believe wwhat your Governments tell you no matter what, then I have a bridge in Sahara desert to sell you.
Good price.
Did you believe your Government when they told you that you had paid your taxes last year?
