(edit title) Spinning the Spin on Wikileaks. Lets talk about what wikileaks uncovered. Options

[William Sachsen-Coburg-Go...]

I only knew it because I read the treaty and the amendment last night.

I really shouldnt do this ....
But you have my attention.

If the US were to request extradition on this minimum 2 year sentence agreement, any guesses as what it could be?

Accessory to murder?
Terrorism?
Copyright infringement (that would show a great sense of humor)
Banner ad revenue from stolen property (ala megaupload)
Fencing

[William Sachsen-Coburg-Go...]

Tax evasion should do it.

[Yorkshireman]

Extradition teaties list what crimes the treaty covers. I am not so sure that Tax Evasion is actually listed in the Sweden-USA treaty?

[William Sachsen-Coburg-Go...]

I thought that was the only crime in Sweden which carried a substantial custodial sentence

I dont want to drag up a dead horse in regards to speculation.

But it would appear that there may be something brewing under the surface.
I believe that maybe a new piece of information may be coming to light and negotiations or attempts to broker a political standoff may bare fruit soon. (Between Sweden and Assange).

/Oooh I feel sneaky.
