Different strokes for different folks. Over 8% of Sweden's population identify as Muslim. Sweden had better learn to live with the sensibilities that come with it.

@luminon9635 You'll find that Sweden's neighbours aren't enthused by the idea that Sweden uses them as shields. In the interest of continued Nordic co-operation, Sweden needs to pull its weight.

@cyberfunk3793 You're dealing with a Krembot day-dreaming about NATO's demise. It's a survival technique after those nightmares about Putin's downfall started.

@GorgeGeorg It's only natural for observers to put two and two together. It's as if Sweden doesn't want to join NATO after all.

@themasterMi7 Don't be so sure. A great many were born in Sweden to Swedish nationals. That said, we are all of immigrant stock. It's human nature to wander and settle in far-off new places, and we've done so exceedingly. Some of my ancestors were Swedish immigrants, ever since the early Middle Ages. Should I detest myself on account of my Swedish immigrant genes?

@firefly4907 You must have your head stuck firmly in the sand. Russia would like to threaten Finland and Sweden much more, but even the Kremlin's Comical Alis -- Lavrov first and foremost -- realise that Russia's threats sound very hollow after its Ukrainian debacle.
