‘Roman Polanski Has a Rival as the World’s Most Notorious Fugitive Pervert’

Posted on | November 30, 2010 | 11 Comments

That was a friend’s reaction on Twitter to the news that Interpol has issued a warrant for Julian Assange on sex-crimes charges:

The WikiLeaks founder, Julian Assange, is tonight facing growing legal problems around the world, with the US announcing that it was investigating whether he had violated its espionage laws.
Assange’s details were also added to Interpol’s worldwide wanted list. Dated 30 November, the entry reads: “sex crimes” and says the warrant has been issued by the international public prosecution office in Gothenburg, Sweden. “If you have any information contact your national or local police.” It reads: “Wanted: Assange, Julian Paul,” and gives his birthplace as Townsville, Australia. . . .
In contrast to previous WikiLeaks releases, Assange has, on this occasion, kept a relatively low profile. His attempt to give an interview to Sky News via Skype was thwarted today by a faulty internet connection.
Assange’s reluctance to emerge in public is understandable. It comes amid a rapid narrowing of his options. Several countries are currently either taking – or actively considering – aggressive legal moves against him. This lengthening list includes Sweden, Australia and now the US – but so far as can be made out, not Britain.

(Hat-tip: Yid With Lid.) How nice of the Guardian to describe Assange’s “reluctance to emerge in public” as “understandable.” What part of “fugitive sex criminal” is so hard for these people to comprehend?

UPDATE: Maybe this explains something:

TIME: Hillary Clinton ‘Should Resign’

Lesson to fugitive perverts: Don’t f*** with Hillary.
