He hacked into a US company and gave information about US citizens to an unfriendly power for the express purpose of hunting these people down and killing them. Kosovo was apparently content to let him keep flitting back and forth between there and KL indefinitely. The Malaysian authorities apparently weren't. He should be grateful to them for turning him over to the Americans. This means he'll very likely get to live to go home again eventually, instead of doing so in a casket, following an impromptu necktie party.
Why do you feel the need to make excuses for this character, anyhow?
You can actually rent a flat in Malmö? Or do you mean "rent" as in "pay SEK 250 a year to be on a waiting list for ten years"? The latter is why I bought a flat in Stockholm...
I'd really like to see what factual basis you're employing for this argument, because I'm not seeing one. In fact, I come to exactly the opposite conclusion, maybe because (a) I live in Sweden, (b) I know what a washing machine costs here, and (c) I can do simple maths.
Washing machine X costs the same regardless of your income. (Yes, if you make more, you can buy a more expensive machine, in which case it's a different machine.)
If I make 100000 SEK a year and spend 10000 of it on that washing machine, that's 10% of my income. If I spend 5000 to repair it, that's 5%. If I get back 2500 of that on my taxes, that's 2.5%.
If I make 200000 SEK a year and spend 10000 of it on a washing machine, that's 5% of my income. If I spend 5000 to repair it, that's 2.5%. If I get back 2500 of that on my taxes, that's 1.25%.
So, if anything, the tax cut actually benefits low-income folks *more* than it does the wealthy since it returns a greater proportion of their income. What's your evidence to the contrary, other than grand pronouncements?
And I'm equally sure that you're quite possibly a complete moron and that you're very definitely someone who's never, ever had to deal with actual security issues for important visitors of any sort, much less for heads of state and their families.

Whaddaya know. Problem solved.
Personally, I'm crying like there's still no port of Eternal Champions to Linux. Dammit, I miss my Genesis sometimes.
Yet she still had time to write the Realm-Jumper Chronicles, 5 volumes and counting. Colour me impressed.
And you shouldn't be able to yank someone from another part of the world anyway. That's unethical.
So... After I rob your house, if I can make it to the Canadian border without getting caught, I'm home free, and this is entirely ethical, right?
Kuala Lumpur. I thought the context should have made it clear. Sorry if it wasn't so obvious.
And of course the proper response to such crimes is to commit more crimes against more innocents in retaliation.

I didn't say "US", now, did I? No, I did not. I said "GOP".
I'm sorry you don't understand that these are two different things.
What did you expect from the Express?—makes the Metro look like an actual newspaper.
You linked to the Express. But I'm willing to bet that you thought you were linking to a news site.
Mitt fel. Förlåt mig.

THRUSH isn't an acronym. It's the name of the organisation. Attempts to make it one came later, in some of the novelisations, I think.
Hej Johan,

Fortunately, Sweden cares very little about what the GOP thinks, of this I can assure you.
Native speakers of English, perhaps?
You guys are like Amway salespeople in reverse: "Have you heard the bad news about George Soros?"
There are some who say "free" means "your time has no value".
Good sign of a product that no-one is using: No bug reports.

Let me be the first (of undoubtedly many) to say, "LOLWHUT?"
