Compare the pictures in these Swedish rags, both full of anti-Palin rethoric, but not as inventive as the Daily Telegraph:

Yes, the first paper you linked seems to have added rings (the second one is so faint I can’t tell). Between them and the English paper, hat’s two instances of news orgs flagrantly doctoring the facts. I wonder how many Europeans realize how propagandized they are.

There is a video at one of the papers about a candlelight vigil the Swedes are holding for Gifford. That’s kind of a nice gesture except that I know (or strongly suspect) they wouldn’t be doing it if not for the Palin/Tea Party aspect. As a victim of the American right (so the bogus narrative goes), Gifford has now entered into that special kind of victim status that can compel this kind of public display from Europeans. She is a victim of backwards nationalism, the common devil in secular postmodern Europe. Thus they can light candles and wear sad faces and all of that.
