But I doubt that Iceland would permit her extradition to the United States.
The government would risk the population turning against it if they allowed that to happen.

Iceland is a very small country with a tiny population, but their parliament holds a great deal of respect.
It is the oldest functioning democratic parliament on the planet, having been in continuous operation for 1080 years, since 930 A.D.

The American imperialistic attitude and high-handedness pisses a lot of people off. In Iceland just as elsewhere.

the Icelandic MP is quoted here as saying

"USA government wants to know about all my tweets and more since 1 November 2009. Do they realise I am a member of parliament in Iceland?"

, that was the funniest thing I've read for sometime..............
