I wouldn't trust Sweden not to cave to US pressure to hand over Assange. The Corporatist Empire was badly affected by the Wikileaks revelations, and has yet to restore the kind of control over other nations that it once had. As North Korea recently proved, the kind of disclosure the US fears cannot be prevented, so making an extralegal example out of Assange must be achieved.
