#2 With only alittle more than a 5,000 man army* to alert, I can see why Sweden is on edge!! Full out, and it would be 'Man to Man' in the streets; and everyone prolly would have to fend for themselves! How draconian!! *CIA Factbook

#3 Only 5k in uniform? I think the Tennessee Defense Force has a higher head count. What happens when the muzzys decide to make a grab for the big ~~enchilada~~lutefisk, and overwhelm the police?

The sweedes are skr_wed.

#5 Wikipedia says: At present Sweden can mobilise 59,500 men and women. This force includes 4,500 officers, 18,000 conscripts and 37,000 Homeguards (a voluntary militia service). But mobilisation is assumed to take one year (although no mobilisation readiness exists), and the formations assumed are of battalion level. In a couple of months, 2,700 officers and 7,000 conscripts are available, with the state militias being available within hours

Though the Swedes don't want to mention their standing manpower, it sounds like 22,500. But then it has to go mention the Swedes can mobilize less than 10,000 men, excluding militia, in several months. Really screwy.

#6 The situation should not be "diffused". The situation should be escalated. You threaten us, we smash a mosque. You threaten us again, we deport one thousand of your fellow orcs. That cartoon should be plastered to the doors of every muslim in Sweden.

#7 Heck, that's nothing to be bothered with in Sweden. How do the muzzies feel about the traditional Christmas meal in Sweden? Its ham, like in smoked pork! How come we don't hear about that? If I was a Swede, I would bury the hatchet with my muzzie neighbor and invite him and family over for Christmas dinner.

You're exactly right.

The problem is *ISLAM*. The problem has always been Islam.
