Magda Hassan Wrote:Not yet sure what to make of this judge. Assange was rightly aghast that a Swedish appeals court judge would travel to Australia to discuss his case. It was noted by local legal beagles as 'highly unusual'. Is he sent by Sweden as a way to extricate themselves from an awkward situation they no longer wish to participate in? Is he sent by Sweden (and/or others) to create a false sense of security that the case is now in tatters and Assange really has nothing to worry about so that more pressure can be brought to bare on his extradition there to deal with a formality only to be rendered to the US for some secret grand jury trial? Will this change any thing?
Personally, I don't think the US will ever take its foot off the pedal of revenge, so I'm concluding it's a "false sense" of security in order to draw him out...
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.
