Naomi Wolf on rape, justice and Julian Assange

For those of us who felt uncomfortable with the cavalier attitude evinced by some Assange supporters in the matter of the Swedish sex-assault charge, but also smelled a rat at the drop-everything hustle demonstrated by Her Majesty's filth in getting Mr Assange behind bars, Naomi Wolf offers this nuanced analysis:

In other words: Never in twenty-three years of reporting on and supporting victims of sexual assault around the world have I ever heard of a case of a man sought by two nations, and held in solitary confinement without bail in advance of being questioned -- for any alleged rape, even the most brutal or easily proven. In terms of a case involving the kinds of ambiguities and complexities of the alleged victims' complaints -- sex that began consensually that allegedly became non-consensual when dispute arose around a condom -- please find me, anywhere in the world, another man in prison today without bail on charges of anything comparable.

Of course 'No means No', even after consent has been given, whether you are male or female; and of course condoms should always be used if agreed upon. As my fifteen-year-old would say: Duh.

But for all the tens of thousands of women who have been kidnapped and raped, raped at gunpoint, gang-raped, raped with sharp objects, beaten and raped, raped as children, raped by acquaintances -- who are still awaiting the least whisper of justice -- the highly unusual reaction of Sweden and Britain to this situation is a slap in the face. It seems to send the message to women in the UK and Sweden that if you ever want anyone to take sex crime against you seriously, you had better be sure the man you accuse of wrongdoing has also happened to embarrass the most powerful government on earth.

	Using theater mode i could notice that last elite´s foot armor had a soft red-violet shine, could someone add that the last elite is another zealot? the plot just tells me that it is just "another elite" while it tells you about all other elites ranks that appear on the cutsceene.

		+	== Secret Ending ==
		+
		+	I have been waiting to see if anybody could figure out the secret ending like me but you all took to long so I'll just tell you guys.
		+
		+	1) Start Lone Wolf on easy.
		+
		+	2) Find all of the dead Spartan bodies and teabag each one ten times each.
		+
		+	3) End the game and play through Reach Racer on ONI Swordbase.
		+
		+	4) Take out the game and put in Halo: Combat Evolved.
		+
		+	5) Play the entire campaign on any difficulty but every time you see Sgt Johnson you need to kill him with a magnum.
		+
		+	6) Leave your house and buy a PS3 from a suspisious man with sideburns.
		+
		+	7) Scream "seven".
		+
		+	8) Go into the nearest forrest with your brand new PS3 and destroy it in any way you see fit.
		+
		+	9) Punch yourself in the face until you become unconscious. The secret ending will appear in your dream.
		+
		+	Now if you don't want to hear the ending yet, stop reading. This is what happens:
		+
		+	The normal ending cutscene will play but instead of showing Six's helmet, (close your eyes at this part) it will show some wierd fetish stuff. You will then see the seven Elites walking untill they come across a DVD player. They'll take this into a ship and then into a room with only other Elites in it (hierarchy stuff). They'll hook it up to a pig plasma (ha) TV and then they will watch every single LOST episode. They think it is awsome so they get and Elite director to remake the series with all Elite actors. The show then becomes super popular tha every single Elite alive swears to join the humans in an epic alliance if the Brutes ever betray them. After this, you will wake up and realize you're an idiot for doing something you found on the internet. [[User talk:Admiralabnormal|Admiralabnormal]] 23:30, December 7, 2010 (UTC)
