The Lost (and Retained) Honour of JULIAN ASSANGE

At the end of a day that started with WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange being accused of rape and molestation in Sweden, Sweden's Chief Prosecutor, Eva Finne has now stated, "I don't think there is reason to suspect that he has committed rape." Prior to this withdrawal of an arrest warrant, Assange had stated, "The charges are without basis and their issue at this moment is deeply disturbing" and "We were warned to expect 'dirty tricks'. Now we have the first one."

So this leads one to ask the obvious question: Who was behind these allegations?

Here's another interview with Julian Assange:
