That is already in the works. Sweden has a woman who have already made false statements that she has withdrawn but they are using the rape charges to get her to the US.

Imprison? Sure. I’ll even grant you "financially ruined" from lawsuits, but who wants her dead?

It may be my personal bias, but I'd imagine anyone whose role makes her their enemy would lack the moral fibre to care about the distinction.

Yeah but it feels is neither weird to be called or be paranoid in that situation. Some things that Assange has said definitely comes off as paranoid and perhaps completely off but he also has had more reasons than almost anyone to be paranoid.
When you have powerful enemies and know it you're probably not better at recognizing where they are lurking about than anyone else. So you end up lashing out at shadows. Who can blame you.

Kill her? What evidence is there of that?
There are powerful people who would be happy to imprison or kill her. It's weird to call a revolutionary who is in the spotlight paranoid. A couple of administration changes and a sex or bribery scandal in some place she's never even visited could set off a series of events where she ends up like Assange or worse.
