'One dead' after Stockholm blasts
BBC ^ | 12-11-10 | staff

Posted on 12/11/2010 11:24:46 AM PST by atomic conspiracy

One person has been killed and at least one other hurt as two explosions rocked the centre of the Swedish capital, Stockholm, reports say. A car blew up near the busy shopping street of Drottninggatan, and another explosion hit nearby shortly afterwards, AP quoted police as saying. A man's body was discovered after the second blast, the agency reported. Swedish Aftonbladet newspaper showed images of a burning white car. The cause of the blasts is not yet known. Rescue services spokesman Roger Sverndal said the car which exploded had contained gas canisters, AP reported. A former AP worker, Gabriel Gabiro, was close to the second blast. "I saw some people crying, perhaps from the shock," he told the agency. "There was a man lying on the ground with blood coming out in the area of his belly, and with his personal belongings scattered around him."

Invite in mo-slimes and you get the predictable result.

Which other country is bringing in lots of mo-slimes?

My, my, my.

Not so fast. Biker gangs fighting for control of drugs have done this before in Stockholm and Copenhagen (Using grenade launchers). I’d wait for more info before placing blame, but that’s just me.

Yikes, I didn’t know the Swedes were so violent, they need to allow more Muslims in to show them how to live in peace.

Committing suicide by immigration. I suppose they are too busy enjoying their sensual pleasures to care about any children they don’t abort. Wearing blinders to the result of a foreign ideology that is incompatible with Western Civilization is so nihilistic. Proof AGAIN continues to splatter all over the world.

Wake up and resurrect Christian ideology as your foundation. THERE HAS TO BE A IDEOLOGICAL BASE and I don’t want it to be muslim or marxism. Christianity is the only ideology besides Judaism (which is a little too exclusive, IMHO, although I would be Jewish, if not Christian) which works for societies and freedom and equality. It is proven that it works, although not perfect....nothing on earth is.

The MSM are in full lock-down/denial mode. CNN:

A car explosion killed one person and injured two others Saturday in central Stockholm, Swedish police said.

Multiple blasts went off on the car in a major shopping district in the city, full of holiday shoppers, according to police spokeswoman Petra Sjolander.

"It is likely that this was some kind of gas tubes that have caused the car to explode multiple times," she said.

The victim was found a few hundred meters from the scene, she said, adding that the connection between the man and the explosion is not immediately known.

CNN apparently doesn't think there were completely separate explosions, even though the dead man was hundreds of meters away from the car.

Poor quality control at Volvo or just the usual contribution by the ROP?

Never was able to understand why the West is so enamored with the growth of this social cancer.

Ruh roh. I bet some Sweedish girl was mad because another sweedish girl had blonder hair.

Oh no wait, back in reality I bet it was a run-of-the-mill muslim doing a day’s work an Alla-land.

Odd. It mentioned that the man was bleeding from his midsection and that his clothing was scattered all around him. I wonder if it was a suicide vest that failed to detonate properly.

However, I suppose it could be anything from Eastern European mafia - to Muslim terrorists.

It’s a bit late in the year to be loading up the car with gas cannisters for the barbecue.

This is connected to Assange. Don’t think it is the muslims this time.
