One of four troopers? OK, that's 25% of their total forces. Pretty devastating, but I'm surprise the lame stream media didn't lead with "ONE QUARTER OF SWEDISH ARMED FORCES WIPED OUT IN SINGLE ATTACK!" Perhaps I'd best not be forwarding this thought in an open forum. It will most likely appear in the NYT tomorrow, and they won't even need to use a spell checker if they even bother doing that these days.

I'm sorry for the family of the lost soldier. No one deserves that kind of news. Perhaps if the Swedish government had deployed a large enough forces to actually provide some amount of security without relying on other groups this might have been prevented? Who can say...

"There are about 100 troops from Sweden with ISAF."

reading is good...
