@Daniel, still waiting "Oh and there are clear examples of Sweden doing what the USA wants in other cases.".
The Mohammed El Zari and Ahmed Agiza event did occur in 2001 after the 9/11 attacks. I am not making excuses for the Swedish government(they fucked up, I don't think I could find a government which hasn't) but context is important.
After what happened with David Hicks, I would not trust the US government to treat Australians fairly and our government(Australia) to protect are citizens human rights while in US hands.
