Wikileaks founder Julian Assange's extradition to Sweden finally has been approved by Britain's Supreme Court -- but that doesn't mean he's headed there anytime soon. The court has granted Assange and his lawyers two weeks to apply to re-open the case on a technicality. If that effort fails, Assange's last hope would be an appeal to the European Court of Human Rights.

Assange is wanted for allegedly molesting and raping two women; he has claimed since 2010 that the sex was consensual, but that he won't get a fair trial in Sweden.
