Another central point, is that if there is a state conspiracy to destroy Assange for his revealations and they are merely using 'rape' as an excuse for political persecution; then this pulls the rug away from under people's illusions about the bourgeois state being... democratic, where the law applies. This, would undermine virtually everything people think they know about democracy and the role of the state in it. That's an awful lot for liberals to swallow, and why haven't the journalists, the Guardian and the BBC told us about this stuff, are they all in on the conspiracy against Assange too? People have asked me this, and when I nod and say 'yes' they look uncomfortable and shake their heads in disbelief.
