Go Sweden!
Disaster averted.

No doubt the incident will help inform security at other power stations.

Wow Sweden was able to avert a potential domestic terrorist attack without needing to invade a third country!

What a novel concept!

Keeping the home secure by increasing the security at home.:hmm:

Brilliant!

Hey how could they keep their nuclear reactor safe without first infringing on the civil rights of the citizens?????

I thought that had to come first.

There was no intercepting of E-mails?
No tapping of phone calls?
Not even a single library informing to the federal government?

Pretty clever these swedes

And they just arrested them? Like it was a criminal act or something???

Sheesh, next thing these swedes will say is that these people will get a fair trial with all that evidence and burden of proof stuff

What a strange land :hmm:

Easy there Platapus, or we'll have to start the Pledge of Allegiance all over again.

Just could not resist. Stuck at home working on my first thesis and was feeling rebellious and revolutionary
