You may be right, but IF there are political motivations, then I think it's fair to say it will not end with his trial in Sweden.

To be honest, prior to these allegations - or rather, his response to these allegations - I tended to believe Assange was providing a useful service to the world by founding Wikileaks. However, I certainly don't think that Wikileaks is a reason to confer sainthood on him, nor is it sufficient grounds in itself to assume that any criminal allegation made against him must necessarily be politically motivated.
