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:
