I think it was a smart move - to keep SD out of power - its like in the early 1930s - when Hitlers NSDAP got a taste for the power they would be given - by Hindenburg no less (who then was dement - and should not have been in the office as President for Germany at all, he should had been denied the presidency - and let him go with some dignety...

Even though SD are not like NSDAP - it does have some straits from the 1980s and 1990s - who is far from cleaned up - as SD was a rather neo-nazi party back in the days... But did a lot to clean itself when they came into the swedish parliament to make themself more tastefully for the other parties - who dosen't even then wanted to have mutch with SD...
