I appreciate your well-put-together response.

"And unlike the UK, which have repeatedly frustrated US authorities by allowing lengthy court proceedings over extraditions, Sweden has kidnapped and black bagged political asylum seekers to illegally hand them over to the CIA, knowing they'd be handed over to the regime they were seeking asylum from."

I've commented on this elsewhere in the thread. To be fair, this is one incident we're talking about. It's not like it's some common occurance, nor is it in this particular case clear-cut that they wouldn't have been extradited even if they weren't handed over to the CIA. The methods used however were of course very questionable; which is why both of the men involved have received financial reparations afterwards.
