> The other alleged victim claims that she...woke up later in the night to find Assange having sex with her, without her consent and without a condom.

Please note that "having sex with [someone] without [their] consent" is the definition of rape.

Here are some facts:

1. Neither woman has stated Assange raped her.

2. Assange has not been charged with rape.

Here are some lies:

1. The women state that Assange raped them.

2. Assange has been charged with rape.

Here is the transcript of the interview referenced in the Naomi Wolf attack article that you have cited.

Fine. The truth is, it doesn't really matter. I would be ecstatic for the Swedish criminal justice system to carefully consider all the evidence and come to a fair outcome for everyone involved. My concern is that Julian Assange is obstructing this process out of either paranoid delusion or regular evasiveness, and his political supporters are all too eager to support his actions.
