So, It's The Swedish National Day...


... and we don't really give much of a damn because - as most of the old countries in the world - it's not really a big deal here.

Sure since 2005 we get a day off from work, because the politicians thought we should celebrate it more, and our royalties are busy handing out Swedish flags to various deserving organisations all day.

But nah, we still don't think its anything to celebrate. Swedes aren't big on nationalism. We certainly like our country but it's not at all a big deal as with some other nations.

If we heard somebody try to launch political slogans as "Sweden First" or "Make Sweden Great Again" most of us would probably laugh our asses off until we peed in our pants.

Deep Sorrow, Frustration & Anger

The horrible news from London yesterday fills me with deep sorrow, frustration and anger.
My thoughts go to the families of the innocent victims and their families. This was yet an outrageous attack on a western democratic state to create havoc and incite hatred.

Do not for a moment let yourself be lured into believing that this has anything whatsoever to do with religious beliefs or cultural norms. It has as little to do with Islam and Muslims as the Crusades once had to do with fighting for Christianity or Christians.

No, these horrendous and vile acts of terror are all orchestrated to intimidate and disrupt the people of the western democracies as a part of a struggle for power, influence and money. The puppeteers behind this unprovoked violence are more likely to be found in Moscow, Peking and Pyongyang than in Baghdad, Beirut or Tehran.
