Swedish secret weapon of mass destruction.

A few weeks back, the government of Sweden sent out a booklet to every household in the country urging citizens to prepare for war or other crises. A few months back, they told citizens that they should be prepared to last for at least a week without any help from the government. Last night, in the most unsettling move yet, they mobilized the entire Swedish Home Guard for an “unannounced preparedness exercise.” All 40 battalions have been activated, effective immediately.
The report is on the Försvarsmakten website, which is the official website of the Swedish Armed Forces. Here’s the English translation:
For the first time since 1975, the Armed Forces carry out an unannounced emergency preparedness control of the entire Hemvärnet. All staff around Sweden who are part of one of the 40 home war battalions and who have the opportunity to attend the evening of 5 June and during the national day will be in charge of service. The alarm is ordered by the Armed Forces and participation in the exercise is voluntary.
“We are committed to strengthening Sweden’s defense and increasing our operational capabilities. This is a way to do it. This exercise is great in several ways. We are testing the emergency chain for almost half our intervention organization, we have not done since 1975, says Micael Bydén, the commander.
Initially, staff – from north to south – will be contacted and invited to stand for service. Thereafter, relations will begin to solve tasks, such as protection, guarding and patrolling. During the national day, home care personnel will be seen in many places around the country, from ports and airports to streets and squares. Since it is a voluntary exercise, the Armed Forces can not force anyone to settle, but the chief commander shows great confidence in his staff. (source)
The Hemvärnet is the Swedish equivalent of the American National Guard.
The Home Guard – National Security Forces (Swedish: Hemvärnet – Nationella Skyddsstyrkorna) is a military reserve force of the Swedish Armed Forces. It was formally established on May 29, 1940, during World War II upon popular demand. While originally composed of former militia groups, today it comprises half of the Swedish Army, thus constituting the basis of the territorial defense of Sweden.
The Swedish National Home Guard consists mainly of local rapid response units, numbering 17,000 of the 22,000 total Home Guard strength, organized in 40 battalions, with 23 associated auxiliary defense organizations. (source)
This “unannounced preparedness exercise” may be just that – a readiness drill. But there are a few things that ring some warning bells for me:
The Swedish website, The Local, reports:
The exercise is part of Sweden’s national effort to rebuild its Cold War Total Defence strategy in response to an increasingly belligerent Russia. The last time Sweden’s Armed Forces called up the entire Home Guard at once was in 1975 at the height of the Cold War.Just a week ago Sweden’s Civil Contingencies Agency sent out its “If Crisis or War Comes” brochure to more than four million Swedish households, advising them to stock up on water, tinned and dry food, and other essentials to increase Sweden’s resilience.The country also last month reestablished a regiment on the Baltic island of Gotland.In the event of an invasion, Sweden’s Home Guard is responsible for protecting the core functions of the Swedish state, guarding government agencies, airports, or ports, so that the professional army is free for front-line duties.

It would be wise to be on the lookout for something to happen soon. What that “something” might be, of course, is open to speculation.
Could they be preparing to quell a migrant uprising in the no-go zones? Back in January, the Swedish Prime Minister said he did not “rule out the use of the army to end gang violence.” Or are they truly concerned about a threat from Russia? Share your thoughts...
There is a reason for that.
Ten thousand Swedes run through the Weeds
Chased by One Norwegian
Ten thousand more run to the shore
In the battle of Copenhagen...
(I have no beef with the Swedes but I had to recite that poem at a "Sons of Norway" banquet.)

Are they tiring of Muslim migrants raping their daughters and sisters? I’ve long thought that Europe’s tolerance only goes so far until it snaps and they turn into murderous revengers. The question is “Has Sweden reached that level yet? Is Europe ready to repel the Muslim invaders? Historically Europe loves it’s purges.
They have been doing upgrades to their
CV-90 family of fighting vehicles, and their Strv-122 is a very capable tank. Then there is their Archer SPH which is an interesting system.
The Russians are not going to do anything to them simply because there will be 10,000+ Swedes hiding behind every tree and shrub with a Carl Gustav or AT-4.
Overall this call up sounds like what they did last year:
All 40 battalions... heh heh. Seriously.
Nope. They’re preparing the populace for a declaration of a “temporary national emergency”, aka martial law. Temporary, it won’t be.
Under martial law the regime can import as many Muslims as they want while brutally suppressing any resistance to the invasion. They can purge any resistance within the Swedish government, and confiscate whatever housing and resources are needed to facilitate the Muslim invasion and take-over.
Swedes in Sweden are in the same sinking boat as whites in South Africa.
Yeah, IKEA or Volvo!
Fascinating, thx.
I think you are right. The Muslim invaders will hit Europe’s “gag reflex” before much longer. Then look out.
Train like you fight. Fight like you train.
One “Alert” every 40 years will get you overran by muslems before the next one.
I don’t want to say it’s muslims but it’s muslims. I read something months ago that said they were going to expel 80,000 Muslims from the country.
That’s an excellent way to put it....Europe’s “gag reflex.”
Yes it’s coming and soon!
