Julian Assange is a spoilt child who craves attention, and doesn’t care how much damage he does as long as he gets it.

Whatever your issue is you really need to deal with it and stop intentionally derailing threads...
Internet trolling
Well, I recall we had news from wiki on Benghazi, Clinton's email server, Pedophilia in Europe and America. But we didn't get any arrests yet on some of these.
If we are to ever have a government which does not lie to its people, and manipulate stories to gain favorable support for wars and new legislation that puts us in harm's way, then we will need many more people just like Julian Assange.
When Corporations get into bed with the Government you have a fascist state.

You didn't get arrests on any. Because no wrongdoing has been demonstrated.
Wikileaks is about accusation, not proof.
Assange exhausted all legal avenues regarding his extradition to Sweden and has chosen to sit in the Equadorian consulate.

The rape investigation is a cover story, to discredit Assange and wikileaks and cover up they want to punish Assange, not for rape but for exposing state corruption.

Crap. He knows as soon as he sets foot outside the embassy he will be subjected to extraordinary rendition (kidnapping) by US government to face charges of Treason (whistleblowing) in a Kangaroo court setting, a show trial with the verdict already determined and punishment fixed.

Stop it! the last piece of decent journalism exposed Watergate, the government haven't grown wings and become angels since then. They have become so corrupt that any one who is a threat is killed. When Corporations get into bed with the Government you have a fascist state. Which will inevitably end badly.

Your stand on US practices of 'legality' and 'due process'... tell that to millions dead and displaced in ME nations.
You have no clue as to my standpoint on US actions, or inactions...
That's rubbish, and you know it. It's a fantasy. Such an act would infuriate the UK and the rest of the developed world, and would probably invalidate legal process in the States.
Assange has been afforded more opportunities to challenge the warrant for his arrest than almost any other defendant in English legal history. This is hardly "persecution" or a "witch-hunt".
