A British judge has ruled that WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange can be extradited to Sweden for questioning over allegations of sexual misconduct.    Assange later said to send him to a foreign land where he does not speak the language or understand the judicial system "is a very grave matter", though he moved to England from Sweden when authorities wanted to question him so why it is suddenly a 'foreign land' to him is unclear.

Assange is from Australia and virtually every Swede speaks English so they should be able to understand each other.   One of Assange's attorneys said he will appeal the decision.

In throwing out all of the defense motions, Judge Howard Riddell ruled that the warrant was valid and contentions that Assange would not be able to obtain a fair trial in Sweden or that Swedish prosecutors had not made any effort to promptly interview Assange before he left Sweden last year were not valid.
