If JA had done what he did in Sweden with two women, would he have been charged with rape or would it have been considered rape at all?

Considering one can accidentally brush/bump into a bimbo in a crowded club here and be charge with "outraging the modesty of" I'd have to say probably yes.

And if he was in an embassy in Singapore, he could probably climb out the bathroom window and slip out of the country?

Rape Rape is what Whoppi Goldberg coined when she questioned a rape case sometime ago ...
she asked - "is it just rape or really 'rape... rape'"...

How is consensual sex "rape"? For example, Woman A had consensual sex with him, slept with him all night in the same bed, but alleges that the next morning, he put it in again without her consent. He also live in her flat from Aug 11 to Aug 19, having sex. This is rape?

What about the no-condom part? In most of the western world, a woman can withdraw consent mid-act and the man must oblige or it can be rape. If the woman said "you must use a
condom" and he didn't, sounds like no consent to me.
Of course, none of us know what really transpired in that room.

Agreed but it's the ladies against one man (which is why I think two honeypots were used). In Australia he would be guilty of rape for not stopping the absolute second he was told to, there was a very famous case of the '20 second rapist' who continued for 20 seconds to completion after being told 'stop!'. He was convicted and continued appealing - believe it or not he eventually found enough evidence to show that he had been set up by a former girlfriend/wife - she had convinced the woman he copulated with to cry rape. Of course the feminazis (99% of Aussie women) didn't bother writing PHD winning thesis on that one,

I'm not even saying I believe the women completely, but it's just so popular in the media today to completely lynch the male and canonize the female 'victim' in the media before even a shred of evidence is heard on either side that I have to be skeptical at all of the unflinching assumptions that an egotistical skumbag like Julian Assange must be innocent and that it's all a setup.

Aside from the alleged sexual assault, his other behaviours would cause him to be put in the slammer or tossed out.

In Singapore yes, because of course there is no free press nor real protection for whistle blowers.

The allegations against him (and what his Interpol warrant is for) are for sexual assault/rape in Sweden; they have nothing to do with any of his wiki-leaks activities.

All depends whether or not you believe he was the victim of a honey pot scheme.
