Former Swedish judge Sundberg-Weitman seems to me to have her act together
[quote]It follows from these provisions, says Sundberg-Weitman, that Ny was required to consult the National Prosecutor General prior to issuing the European Arrest Warrant against Assange, and that the National Prosecutor General, in turn, "must have presented the matter before the Minister of Foreign Affairs." Yet an Expressen interview with National Prosecutor General Anders Perklev indicates otherwise. In the interview, says Sundberg-Weitman, he gives the impression that Marianne Ny has been acting totally independently in the Assange case: "Every prosecutor dealing with the case makes an independent evaluation. It is not the Prosecution Authority as such that makes a decision, it is the individual prosecutor who decides in his or her own name. This, according to Sundberg-Weitman , "seems odd".[/quote]
(my bolding) This surely is pol-speak - the senior pols dodging responsibility and making sure the poo will land squarely on the head of Ny in case the strategy goes belly-up.

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
