Technically I think I am correct with that statement (or at least close). In regards to any other theories as of why the Swedish police is trying to extradite him to Sweden I have a hard time believing them. I know quite a lot of people believe them and of course there could be some truth in them (or not), but from what I know and believe they are not believable. I could be wrong. Debating this is to me like debating religion, you believe what you believe.

Regardless, I still say that he's trying to associate himself with people that have done far, far more good than he has done.

He probably helped give Snowden hope that actually leaking information without death was possible. The more this happens, the more people will do it.

Uh, John Walker anyone? The U.S. has executed a spy (even in the military) in decades.

Unfortunately for Assange and his character, the inaccurate part isn't "had forcible unprotected sexual intercourse with someone". His lawyer has stipulated to the victim's statements.

Source? What I have read, the only statement that the lawyer has stipulated is that Assange had sex. Not that it was forced.
