True, but the process of revoking the diplomatic status would be (as far as I know) unprecedented.

You seem to be sarcastically implying that you consider rape to be a 'minor incident', or is that definition just reserved for 'darlings' of the left(eg Strauss-Khan, Polanski)?

I'm not sure what political leaning has to do with anything. I've already stated that I think that Assange is an irresponsible moron. I have absolutely no time for the man. However, in the greater scheme of things, I think that rape (especially in the loose Swedish definition) is a minor offence that does not justify the steps that the UK govenment is suggesting it's considering.
