    The Swedes won't extradite on a capital charge.
    Can they extradite on a non-capital one & upgrade? #
  • .@EmmaK67 @GrahamTrigg @davidallengreen
    Were I the US Govt and wanted #Assange
    I would extradite him from .se on a easy charge #fryhimlater #
  • Have heard so much about "The Swedes will not extradite a man on a capital charge" – surely a workaround can't be that hard? #
  • @DarthNull Totally, though were I a non-US citizen in a non-US location, breaking no local laws, I'd resist extradition too. #
  • @DarthNull ("on principle" if for no other reason) #
  • @DarthNull Yeah, we just prefer to do it to our own. 🙂 #
  • @DarthNull Noriega. #
  • @DarthNull Actually, imagine the stink that would be caused if the .UK extradited A to the .US without first dealing with the .SE charges. #
  • .@spyblog @EmmaK67 @GrahamTrigg @davidallengreen
    So the EAW prevents the UK extraditing Assange to anywhere but Sweden? #interesting #
  • .@spyblog But from my reading that still allows Sweden to then extradite him to the USA on a non-capital charge; upgrade once in Leavenworth #
  • @DarthNull Quite. See other thread with @spyblog and http://t.co/kia8I8Wy
    apparently the EAW inhibits the UK from sending him to the US. #
  • @spyblog Do both. Party for all. "9/10ths of the law" and all that. #
  • Was just pointed at this by @fjmd1

    "Extraordinary rendition provoked [] crisis between the US and Sweden in 2006…" #
  • @DrJennyWoods cheese? #
  • @DrJennyWoods "part liberal democrat, part mouse" 🙂 #
  • Apparently there are things which you can Google but which you can't say/hear on TV. I wonder why I don't watch TV any more? #
  • @PaulbernalUK I saw about 30 seconds of it and trust me, you don't want to bother. #
