He'll still end up going to the US. Because the US will offer much more in return.

US: Heres some money and military equipment and trade.
Sweden: Ummm...let me ask the EU.

What have the CIA got do this with? lol

They are the US's foreign intelligence agency. This is a domestic crime and they already charged him.

You should stop reading RT.

Then one of the other dozen or so agencies will do it, it’s irrelevant.

He made a fool of their military and establishment, he’ll pay a price. We’ll just have to wait and see what the next chapter in this pointless story is.

What's to stop him going to Sweden first, doing time for rape then being extradited from Sweden to the US?

I'm sure the US would be happy enough with that.

Swedish law, they don't extradite people for what Assange is accused of by the USA (this has been mentioned many times since he entered the embassy spamming his fake USA out to get him claims). In fact they have previously refused to send the USA much bigger fish than Assange for this very reason.

Naa, the US will most likely get him and Sweden will then have to try and get him off the US. Or from Australia after he gets released and deported.

The max sentence he can get for hacking in the US is 5 years. He could get up to 12 for rape in Sweden I think (and then be labelled a rapist for the rest of his life). He should have just handed himself in to the US years ago, he might have got 2-4 years and been released long ago.

Why do you think the CIA would give a ****? They’ll do it for fun and as a message.

Yes, violating international law and their treaty obligations to the UK would be nothing to the mighty CIA! :rolleyes:

Assange won't get tortured. In fact, he probably won't get extradited to the US at all (precedent suggests that the UK would refuse to extradite for what he is accused of) it'll just drag on for a few years during which - since he's proven he can't be trusted - he'll probably be incarcerated. That's assuming he isn't sent to Sweden.

Pfft as if the UK cares anymore and black sites exist for a reason.

Panting like a fiend
Assange is not going to a black site. He's being extradited. You clearly have not the slightest idea what that means.
Aye if the US were going to do that to him, they'd have probably done it whilst he was running around with the rich friends who he convinced to pay his bail, before he then threw their money in the bin and went to do his Hikkomori impression that turned into a dirty protest at the embassy.
