This is the 3rd strange thing to come out of Sweden recently. Recently we heard about "preparedness" material being sent to the population and now for the first time in 40 years they are activating their National Guard. By recent actions, we would have to assume that they know or suspect something is going down soon.

A few weeks back, the government of Sweden sent out a booklet to every household in the country urging citizens to prepare for war or other crises. A few months back, they told citizens that they should be prepared to last for at least a week without any help from the government. Last night, in the most unsettling move yet, they mobilized the entire Swedish Home Guard for an “unannounced preparedness exercise.” All 40 battalions have been activated, effective immediately.

Sweden has called up all of its army volunteers for the first time in more than four decades in a bid to bolster its military strength.

The country, which has a reputation for neutrality, last went to war more than two centuries ago.

It comes after the Swedish government dispatched brochures to its 4.8 million households on how to prepare for an attack.

The pamphlet, entitled If Crisis or War Comes, is meant to get residents ready for a range of scenarios, including military conflict.

Sweden, which last went to war in 1814 with Norway, has not sent such instructions to its citizens since the days of the Cold War.

It seems weird that Sweden is the only place that knows.

Is this like WWZ where only Israel knew what was going on because they were the only ones paying attention and brutally pragmatic enough to act?

You're on a roll. Thanks for the heads up.


Strange things are afoot.


General Micael Bydén, the supreme commander of Sweden’s Armed Forces, said it was first time the whole home guard had been tested like this since 1975.

“We are committed to strengthening Sweden's defense and increasing our operational capabilities,” said Gen Bydén. “This is a way to do it.”

The anti-immigrant Sweden Democrats (SD) were backed by 18.5 percent of potential voters, up 5.6 percentage points from the election in 2014, a closely watched biannual poll from the country’s statistics office showed on Tuesday.

Co-incidence be damned.

They damn well know what is about to happen and it looks as if it will be a world event.

Why do they need the whole military unless they expect a lot of danger.

Yes, I did read that it was only an exercise ... just like all of the others.

Maybe they are finally going to fight back against the foreign invaders that are pillaging their women and terrorizing their country.

One can hope.

Gearing up to bring on the police state against the growing anti-immigrant sentiment since that's rising in the face of the crime waves?
