(not what we (men) would class as rape) but he has been charged, and he should face those charges. are the swedish courts trying to make a name for themselves, probably but if what the women says is true then he should under swedish law be charged whatever browny points the courts are are trying to win. if found guilty he should get a small fine and a short suspended sentence. (in my opinion) he would i think have a good chance of being found not guilty.I can see him doing what is alleged, the accusations are simply taking what he wants and doing what he wants without permission or any foresight of the consequences, look to wikileaks and it's the same story there.
The having sex with a woman while sleeping, in the absence of consent, is rape in the UK & US also as is the having sex if he was told to wear a condom but refused too, I cant see the Swedish authorities turning there back on centuries of impartiality and fairness just to assist the US with a smear campaign, after all Europe is a power in it's own right and to be fair trade to and from the US is minimal so the US really has nothing to force the Swedish authorities with, I just don't buy that there is a conspiracy involving 2 civilians the Swedish court system and prosecutors with the British authorities and courts and prosecution service aided by Euro-pole at the request of the US, it just seems a bit far fetched.
