Interesting. Now the nazi swedish government, a bunch of lackeys/accomplices of the US nazis, looks slightly less bad. Good for Assange I guess.

So now that he's no longer being prosecuted by the Swedes, he's available for extradition to the US -

Oh, so it's a case of "out of the frying pan, into the fire" ? That would make sense, too, I suppose.

wonder if that Grand Jury has recently finished putting its case together?

Wait and see then...

Not as long as he remains under diplomatic immunity/ in the Ecuadorian consulate (of course) (presumably ...)

- wonder if that Grand Jury has recently finished putting its case together?

I believe that's not relevant to the USA extraditing Assange - the USA prosecutor only has to "allege" some "national security threat" with the evidence being wikileaks.org "Helicopter Gunship" publication, and once extradicted then jailed "on remand" for as many years as they choose to use to "finish putting its case together". Australian "government" is also not averse to retrospective "criminal" laws opportunistically used to stop dissidents or popular uprisings (Pauline Hanson jailed on retrospective criminal charge for not having the required number of members to "legally" form a political party, escept she did, and they changed the law to make the previous number not enough, thus screwing her over and ultimately jailing her to stop her political movement...), and so I imagine the USA "government" is likely to do the same. I.e.: flagrant and repeated violations of the rule of law, abhorrent destruction of anything even remotely resembling "democracy" and so ultimately nothing but sheer thuggery power dressed up as The State! John Pilger lays it all out succinctly (version at The Duran adds their own short commentary to Pilger): http://theduran.com/john-pilger-speaks-out-on-julian-assange-and-sweden/ http://johnpilger.com/articles/getting-julian-assange-the-untold-story
