Anyone know what security is like around Himeville/Underburg?

The interesting thing is whilst the message from the military is all about a potential attack from Russia, the actual threat is from within Sweden. But a lot of the preperation that ordinary citizens need to think about would be similar.

Russia won't be attacking Sweden. Sweden is now so well embedded in the EU that any attack on Sweden is an attack on all EU members. They have a similar regulation to NATO's article 5 in the EU treaties.

So why send a brochure to all households urging them to be prepared? It doesn't rime with the geopolitical situation in the Baltics nor with the internal politcal messaging about crime in Sweden.

Probably.

How about Jan Smuts?

He's got that bad a reputation. Wow.

I grew up in Durban. I can't remember hearing anything bad about him.

I remember my parents and their friends mentioning 1948 when Smuts lost the election - as in that was a bad thing. But then we were Brits so it makes sense.

Was that during WW1?

Yeah I've read about that, although I don't remember the names of the rebels.

Brutal

Do you guys have the link to the list of farms to be seized? (I'm late to this).

Thanks. This is incredibly sad.

How will the poor and unemployed masses react when they find out that the seized farms were not handed out to them but to large mining companies, some foreign owned?
