A car loaded with gas canisters detonated in a busy section of downtown Stockholm today, followed by another explosion 10 minutes later caused by a suicide bomber. After the explosions, the bomber was found dead lying about 300 yards away from the car bomb, reportedly wearing a suicide vest and a backpack full of nails and surrounded by the remains of pipe bombs. The bombs apparently were inexpertly crafted and failed to detonate to full capacity. Two people were wounded in the bombings, which took place in a street filled with Christmas shoppers.

Sweden: Progressive Shangri La
Update: R.I.P.
And I was so sure being nice to your enemies makes them love you.
Maybe not eh?
If you listen to the American Left and their leader the vapid Obama, you would have thought that it was only that evil Great Satan America that needed to make amends for exploiting the po’ Muslim world.
Turns out that bastion of running dog capitalism Sweden has been targeted as well. I hope they consider sending a few troops to help out in Afstan since they appear to have a dog in the fight too. Probably a toy poodle though.
No doubt the Swedes will try to be even nicer now and roll over again.
We are so lucky that the terrorists are even more inept at attacking us as we are defending ourselves. I am happy the PIRA are taking a break, those were some talented terrorists.
To the left – If they will attack Sweden, what do you think they’ll do if you coddle them to your breast. Is there a more left leaning democracy in the world?
But go ahead, clutch a viper to your chest, you pinkos. I pray you don’t take other more realistic folks with you.
That’ll teach those Swedes to invade other countries for their oil. Intolerant bigots all, Imperialists! and now they got their payback.
But Sweden has attacked the Muslim world. It has attacked the Muslim world by not being an Islamic theocracy with Sharia law. That’s how they think. There can be no appeasement.
I thought Sweden had sent troops to Afghanistan. Maybe not a lot, but according to jihadists, it’s the thought that counts.
Celebrate diversity!
Youths innocently setting off firecrackers and the Islamophobes are out in force.
Those friggin Baptist kicking up their heels again, hey wait a minute, didn’t you say moe?
The Swedes will sh!t their pants trying to figure out why oh why would the mussies do this to them?
After living over there years ago this is no surprize, while being nice folks, the Swedes are nothing more than full tilt millies, wimps, and pansies, meaning they will bend over for anything. When I lived there the left wing pinkos in the news media would pee themselves a column, over every decent Swedish MAN who would whack a mohammed over the head with a frying pan when they caught them doing bad things, well flying frying pans were mild compared with Swedes separated from their vital parts which is the result of MULTICULTURALISM folks, ||||Canada next eh.
Moderate Muslim: One who hasn’t been fully trained on how to load his backpack.
Just lovely.
Merry Christmas.
When/where do Christians detonate bombs on Muslim Holy Days? But Christianity and Islam are morally equivalent, aren’t they? All religions are equal, right?
Are these people seriously of the same stock as the Vikings of yore?
Kevin, the Vikings were Norwegians. The Swedes are Svend Robinsons ancestors. Check Mate. But Norway is full of just as many millies as Sweden so just wait and watch, then Canada will be next.
There were indeed Swedish Vikings. They tended to go east and south unlike their Norwegian and Danish cousins, but they did exist. The Rus, they were called.
The Swedes conquored much of what is now Belorussia and the Ukraine. They were noted for their bloodlust and cruelty.
Corrections Canada just hired their first female Muslim guard to work in a men’s prison.

I find this statement more interesting:
“The bombs apparently were inexpertly crafted and failed to detonate to full capacity.”
Running out of resources necessary to fully train their recruits?
KevinS and Zog have it right. The Swedish Vikings were known as Varangians and controlled the eastern Slav tribes all the way down to the Black Sea during the early middle ages. They were eventually kicked out during the late 10th century. Prince Rurik was invited back to Novgorod to be the leader and the city state known as Rus was established. Rus eventually became known as Russia.
There is a Viking museum in Stockholm.
Svend Robinson would not have fit in with this group.
The Swedes as well as other Scandinavians might well have to revive their warrior attributes to survive.
Louise,
That’s probably a bad thing. You’re likely not going to get an African embassy bombing but it’s worse if you have kids running around with homemade explosives just blowing up here and there. Or something like mall shootings which have happened before.
The Liberal Left must be jumping with joy.
Their Muslim friends are having a very Merry Christmas indeed.
This was not Muslims – It was the Liberal Left establishment that knew this would happen, and allowed it to continue.
In FACT they insisted.
Isn’t multiculturalism wonderful?
The damage was minimal. The work of amateurs. Not worth dying for! Now lets fly over a Taliban village with a B-52 full of Napalam and show those boys the meaning of retribution!
“Our actions will speak for themselves, as long as you do not end your war against Islam and humiliation of the Prophet and your stupid support for the pig Viks,” the speaker threatened on the tape, as reported by Swedish news agency TT.”
Ah,the solution is simple! Pull all your troops out of Afghanistan, and kill Lars Viks!
THEN,the Muslims will be the Swede’s friends!
Yup.
It sounds more and more every day that the projected image of the Swedes in that old poem line that said… “10 thousand Swedes ran through the weeds chased by one Norwegian” is true, except in this case it is the Muslims that are chasing, and if we do not smarten up someone is going to be writing a poem depicting Canada doing the same thing.
Some dumbass attempted to give first aid to the bomber. There’s appeasement for ya!
As for Swedes and Norwegians being pansies. That is true for a large part, having such huge amount of lefties. But the truly sad part is that most of Europe is worse. With GB being the pansiest of all. There would be violent riots in Norway over some of the $hit taking place there. And we had our last violent riot in 1647(or so, and that was by Laplanders so they weren’t technically Norwegian) until 2008 when we had riot over the war in Gaza by immigrants. However the lefties who are much, much smarter than us and are nowhere NEARLY as selfish assured me that this was regretful, but they acted in justified anger…

FROM THE CBC COMMENTS: Traveling hopefully,
as always…
“Its a little early to surmise what really happened.
It may have been a terrorist attack or not.”

These muzzies are unaware of who they are messing with….
The descendants of the vikings likely still have a potential berserker in their gene pool.
Raat Road….I know the Finns are a different mob but not that different….
First the rape gangs in Malmo…now this in Stockholme…..
Properly motivated these guys can punch over their weight. This may be the inspiration…….
Via Con Dios……..Deus Wult…..
I have to point this out:
Wikileaks d@ch3bag is conducting his own terror campaign on the web right now.
Trying to bully the Swedes into dropping the charges?
Sounds like a bomb built by his teenage internet sycophants to me.
IMHO as always
dwright
The big question here is whether the bomber is a candidate for the Darwin award? I mean how dumb does one have to be to mess up making a bomb? I played with explosives from age 12-16 and we used to make quite large bangs although we detonated our explosives in the woods and preferred to be a good distance away from the explosions when they occurred.
It helped that seismic crews would occasionally ditch partial boxes of dynamite on seismic lines and all that was necessary in this case was to improvise a detonator or put a bullet through a few sticks of dynamite.
This is one place where extensive inbreeding among the members of a pedophile worshiping religion is a good thing.
loki:
My friends and I had access to high grade gunpowder
when we were kids-
Likewise, some epic “cherrybombs” got built.
WE were smarter kids than the current “netgen”
IMHO
dwright
I will not be around to see it but unforunately my kids wil. Canada will be a muslim country within 50 yeas with sharia law and all the atrocities that go with it. thank you PET
Sweden: lot of blondes there, eh?
Not gonna happen willy
“progressives” are on the way out
at gunpoint if necessary
fleeing Australians, NZ’rs and Europeans fleeing the socialist wave can supply all the immigration we need. Remember we have the most conservative gov in the free world, and a majority Harper gov is in the works IMHO
Now CBC us reporting that the Swedes have called this a “Terror Crime”
This is followed by their exhortation that the story is closed to commenting.
What a bunch of friggin’ pansies!! As soon as it involves Muzzies, its see no..hear no…speak no…
Ah, CBC did what it does and closed the comments section on the story today, typical. Don’t want to criticize any one group….
You people just don’t understand! Bombing Xmas shoppers is the Jihadi way of building cultural bridges. They’re trying to ‘reach out’, they crave our acceptance. Suicide bombing is their way of saying ‘happy holidays’ to new neighbors. You guys are just too tough on foreign cultures.
Gosh, I hope the muslims leave us alone now that we are hiring them even as female prison guards, allowing them unidentified in their burquas onto our planes and our lefties along with business are doing everything they can to stop the use of the word “Christmas” and turning the Christmas Season into the Holiday Season. I am sure our wonderful politicians are seriously looking at Sharia law and maybe stoning to appease the “Religion of Peace”.
As the cowardly Swedes have shown not mentioning muslims even as they rape your women goes a long way to giving “Peace in our Time”. After all it worked for Chamberlain…oh, it didn’t…sorry I forgot.
Sasquatch said: “The descendants of the vikings likely still have a potential berserker in their gene pool.”
Oh. Yeah.
But you know, we really, really don’t want to let that sumb*tch off its chain, Sasquatch. It took a thousand years and more to civilize us, and I’d hate to see all that work wasted, know what I mean? That’s why I don’t like that narrow faced little pr*ck Geert Wilders. He’s a battlefield crow, that one.
I much prefer to see one of the blond destroyers offering first aid to the bomber. That’s not stupidity or dhimmitude, that right there is the adamantine strength of Western civilization, and it is that which allows us to always beat the barbarians.
The BBC refered to a ‘terrorist’ attack. Note the quotes, as if they were not certain whether a guy blowing up a car bomb and himself in the middle of downtown of a big city full of innocent Swedes was somehow a cross between the Swedish chef and Beaker i.e. it was just another episode of The Muppets.
Actually, it was another episode of “The Muhomets”
Phantom; that only works if you’re dealing with the rational.
Re the homemade pyrotechnics…ah, the good old days of popping down to the Garden Centre for 2 lb bags of saltpetre and Sulphur 🙂
The best of times!

One would hope you are being sarcastic..or your moniker is truly apt.
Daninvan said: “Phantom; that only works if you’re dealing with the rational.”
Nope. Read your history Dan, it -always- works. The Americans have made a science of it, but it worked all through the British Empire, and for the Romans.
Better by far than returning to barbarism ourselves, which is the path our good friends on the Left seem hellbent to follow.
No, CBC did not close this site! Always criticize with accuracy! Like I do!
Just a little wackyleak for you. The militant Islamist groups are the best thing that ever happened to America and its Allies. In so many ways that it would take a book to list them all. The success can easily be assessed by crappy attempts like this. The United States Military reads all these signs to determine how aggressive to be to maintain the present stability. When your are using gas cannisters, it quite indicates a poorly funded outfit. You going to need the multimillion dollar stuff to cause any problem for the rest of the World. Meanwhile the militants are advantages to us as a diversion. American intelligence and military progress has probably increased 1000 fold since being woke from their slumber.

I feel helpless against these attacks. What can I as one person do to fight back when I don’t have the support of the government, the media or the majority of the population? Unfortunately, most of my friends won’t get it until their daughters are forced to wear burquas to school.
So everyone with Facebook is reporting the hell out of that RIP group for supporting terrorism right? Let’s see if Facebook has the balls to actually do something anti-islamic.
You see, I have read the Koran
(that murderous manual for man).
It says paradise
for me will be nice;
I’ll get all the sex that I can.
I must slaughter paynim and Jews
(and apostates too, if I choose).
I can’t, though, eat ham,
say rules of Islam,
and have to stay clear of all booze.
For anarchist lads such as I
some Koranic rules will apply.

An explosive vest

says “nuts!” to the West,
as bolts send my nuts to the sky.
