And Swedish media has conducted a nyhetsblackout the data including here at Mac and recently in the Daily Mail about the false evidence was fabricated in the Assange affair. They are obviously very uncomfortable with the information we have published.


That's so typically Swedish as it can be, it's also what makes our reputation is on the bottom. When we are under pressure jamsar we are, and when we are home free we point the finger! What a crappy mentality!

Play with the idea that another poor journo would be hanging somewhere, or maybe David Isaak for that matter. Have hard to see that it benefits his cause to take on Ethiopia in that case.

Talk about straining at gnats and swallow camels
