First exploded a car at the busy shopping street Drottninggatan in central Stockholm. Then came another explosion some distance away and one man died. According to news agency TT, the man had blown himself to death. There was a bag on the ground filled with nails, according to newspaper Expressen.
Alarm calls poured in to the Emergency Services from concerned residents about the explosions in central Stockholm on Saturday afternoon. But the initial info from the police was extremely unclear. First there was talk of two cars that exploded, later it proved to be just one...
At Bryggargatan a man was found dead. According to news agency TT the police assume that the man was not damaged in the car explosion, but that he somehow blasted himself.
According to the police there was a bag at the site, but that is unconfirmed information. According to newspaper Expressen the bag will be filled with nails. Witnesses have seen how the police bomb squad robot has been taking care of the bag. There is also information that the bomb squad continues to look for explosives at the deceased man.
At least four ambulances were sent to the scene. Two people were taken to hospital with minor injuries, they were in the vicinity of the explosions. The adjacent streets are cordoned off....
After the explosions in central Stockholm, the Security Service and the Stockholm Police are in a meeting. There is still much confusion after the explosions. The Security Service do not want to make any statement in the current situation, and neither want to go out with information about if safety measures have been increased in Stockholm.
Have they said anything about the nationality of the bomber? I'm guessing a Bavarian Catholic still mad at Sweden because of King Gustavus Adolphus' intervention in the Thirty Years' War.
What are Somalians doing in the West? Why don’t they emigrate to Saudi or Iran, where there are more jobs and more money.
This whole migration process from 3rd world hell-holes to the West is a typical evil scheme of the UN that is mostly run by 3rd worlders but financially supported by the West.
Notice that China does not accept immigrants. They’re smart — they’ll survive.
Mogadishu is great.
Let’s create that utopia from Black Hawk down in every western town.
That’s seems to be the policy of politicians from both the right and the left.
Well f. them.
China has Muslim separatists in its west, especially Muslim Urguyrs.
Why the hell Napolitano doesn't mandate that every American airline flight carry a 5 gallon jug of pig fat in the baggage compartment is beyond me.
Advertise that an explosion will surely coat all the debris, including human, with pig fat. It might work one hell of a lot less confrontationally than TSA putting their hands down every ones pants.
Hey it worked for Col. "BlackJack" Pershing in the Phillipines in 1907.....worth a try.
We should make that a tradition for all muslim graveyards.
Colonizing.
They do not assimilate. They expect the natives to assimilate to them.
The below are “quick” English translations from the newspaper Aftonbladet from several articles: Videos are also at the link...(You can clearly see/hear two different explosions in the car)...
SAPO was terror alert - before blasting
http://www.aftonbladet.se/nyheter/article8265933.ab
SAPO: “We have good control of the situation”
About ten minutes before the explosions sent an email to TT, also addressed to the Security Service, where a man turns to “Sweden and Swedish people.” He refers to the Swedish silence on Lars Vilks paintings, the Swedish soldiers in Afghanistan, saying that “now to your children, daughters and sisters to die like that our brothers and sisters and children are dying. “
- Our actions will speak for themselves. As long as you do not stop your war against Islam and degrading to the Prophet and your stupid support for the pig Vilks, “says the man.
“Do not fear death”
Then the man calls all Muslims in Sweden to “stop suck up and humiliate you.” He ends the message with yet another call for “all the mujahideen in Europe and Sweden”: - Now it’s time to turn to, wait no longer. Come up with whatever you are although it is a knife and I know you have more than one knife to come by. Fear not, fear not a prison, do not fear death.
Security Service does not comment
SAPO has not wanted to comment on the content of TT or confirm if you received the email, which contains audio files where both Swedish and Arabic are spoken. TT has not been confirmed that the mail has to break to make.
Where in the Middle East
There is nothing in the audio files of the man who speaks belong to any organization. However, he said he had been in the Middle East and he would ask his family for forgiveness because he lied to them. - I never went to the Middle East to work or earn money, I went there for jihad, “said the man.
The same e-mail
The Security Service now confirms to Aftonbladet that they have the same email also sent to TT. - It was added to our registry. It is submitted for verification to our administrators, “said Michael Gunn, officer in charge of SAPO. He would not comment on the content or who signed the email, but admits that it is the same email. - I can see on the mailing list that, among other things have gone for us and to TT.
No one had time to see the email
None of the Security Police had time to see the email before the explosion in central Stockholm, just over two months ago, raised its terror preparedness SAPO. - There is a specific threat in Sweden. But we are now at high levels means that we have good control over the situation. We say that there is no immediate threat, said SAPO Head Anders Danielsson then.
SAPO following investigation
Is this attack, coupled with the increase in the contingency that you did then? - The interconnection unfortunately, I can not answer. The preliminary investigation is still pending before the Stockholm police. SAPO follow the investigation, “said Gunn.
“Bomb The man did not act alone ‘
http://www.aftonbladet.se/nyheter/article8266091.ab
Terrorism expert Magnus Ranstorp: He has probably had the support of groups abroad
The suicide bomber did not act alone. According to terrorism expert Magnus Ranstorp, he probably had the support of groups abroad. - It is extremely worrying that the terror directed indiscriminately against civilians in Sweden. There is a new trend, “he says.
If the suicide bomber involved in any of these networks is too early to tell, says terrorism expert Magnus Ranstorp. But he has not acted alone. - You do not sit at home and engaged himself to a video of the assault in Afghanistan or Iraq and think enough is enough, I go to the inner city of Stockholm and blow me in the air. There are other individuals who have assisted in the process. This individual is not acting himself. You also need a psychological support to carry out a suicide attack. - In my experience it would have been one thing if it’s only been one car fires. But the self-assembling pipe bombs and sacrifice your life - I would be very surprised if he was not in contact with other individuals.

Coming to Minnesota? Lots of them there, I understand.
Minnesota and Maine.
They go were the liberal welfare policies are the most generous/stupid
Hence there are tons of them in Scandinavia.
But does China cuddle them or put on the kneepads as we do for our muzzies? And do they allow Muslim immigration as we do?
He blowed up real good!
Nobody is safe from murderous scum like this. If you don’t submit to them, it’s death. The world needs to understand this simple rule.
GREAT post.
The bomber was an Iraqi.
Of course we are safe now.
The great George Bush and Rumsfeld told us as much.
Allah Akbar multi-culturists.
The Swedes have let way, way too many of them into their country.
“... the man had blown himself to death.”
Pervert.
. . . and in the Malaren . . . and in the Sodermalm . . . I don't see a problem with that, especially because he's going to "Allah" in fire and brimstone land without taking anyone with him.
