Sardaukar Posted November 17, 2023 Posted November 17, 2023 https://yle.fi/a/74-20060816 Finland announced plans to close four border crossing points in the southeast from midnight on Friday, but four more will remain open further north along the country's frontier with Russia. Finland's government is prepared to take further action if Thursday's decision to close four crossing points on the border with Russia does not help to calm the situation on the eastern frontier, according to Finance Minister and Deputy PM Riikka Purra.

Ivanhoe Posted November 30, 2023 Posted November 30, 2023 Lumping Finland in with the Noords... https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-67564175 Quote Finland has closed the last crossing on its long Russian border, prompting the Kremlin to condemn an "absolutely redundant measure". The northern crossing at Raja-Jooseppi closed for two weeks at 14:00 (12:00 GMT) on Wednesday, after Helsinki accused Russia of channelling asylum seekers towards Finland. Finland says it has become the target of a Russian "hybrid operation". Some 900 asylum seekers have crossed the border this month. The influx is dramatically higher than the previous number of barely one a day and Finland's border guard says before August 2023 Russian authorities barred foreign citizens from travelling to the area without the necessary visas.
Stuart Galbraith Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 There is a side note to that. What do all the millionares actually contribute? For example, In the UK, all they do is buy up buildings they dont live in, cars that are imported from abroad, then spend most of the year abroad so they dont pay tax. Then they drive up the value of the pound, which makes it impossible to export anything. It is true Millionaires invest in the British economy. On present evidence, its the Indian and German ones, not the British ones. We have been getting dire warnings about our millionaires poking off abroad. To which I would say, good riddance. They have contributed nothing to the local economy for years. And I daresay the same is true of the Norwegian ones.
Ivanhoe Posted December 27, 2024 Posted December 27, 2024 I knew you bastards were up to no good; https://scitechdaily.com/baltic-herring-turn-predators-a-stunning-evolutionary-shift/ Quote A new study published today (December 23) in Nature Communications by researchers at Uppsala University (Sweden) has revealed a surprising discovery: the evolution of genetically distinct, fish-eating herring in the Baltic Sea. This unique population has emerged in the relatively young Baltic Sea, which has existed for only about 8,000 years since the end of the last glaciation. Instead of longboats, carnivorous herring. In 5 years, the Discovery Channel will be running Herring Week. In 10 years, Hollywood will release "Herringnado." In 20 years, Australian beaches will need to have anti-herring nets.
Murph Posted December 27, 2024 Posted December 27, 2024 You know when the Finns are really pissed when they speak like these guys speak. An angry Finn is pretty scary.
Murph Posted December 30, 2024 Posted December 30, 2024 I am so glad Finland at least is showing some balls.

Stefan Fredriksson Posted January 26 Posted January 26 https://euroweeklynews.com/2025/01/24/bomb-blasts-in-sweden/ Seems to have been a sale on explosives. Number is up since article. At least 1-2 eplosions 1-2 km from where I live. I agree with some comments on FB: "Someone needs to do something!" 👍

Stefan Fredriksson Posted February 5 Posted February 5 3 hours ago, JWB said: I didn't think that sort of thing ever happened up there. In terms of number of dead people, it hasn't before in Sweden afaik. I think Mattias Flink killing 7 people in -94 was worst before this.
Stuart Galbraith Posted February 5 Posted February 5 Im sorry for the loss. The only good news is how rare these seems to happen in European countries these days, but thats hardly a consolation.
Stefan Fredriksson Posted February 5 Posted February 5 Picture and name released on the suspected killer. Rickard Andersson, 35. Both name and face are very Swedish/Nordic looking. No manifesto found yet. He is said to have been a loner, possible psychiatric problems. 11 dead incl. suspected shooter (suicide), 4-6 in hospital. I think I have seen a list of victim names, a total mix, ie. not only foreign sounding names.
Yama Posted February 5 Author Posted February 5 Seems a classic school shooter, reportedly socially withdrawn. Probably developed psychological issues and was radicalized in the net in peer forums. At that point 'incelism' is an ideology nearly as deadly and dangerous as any religious or political fanaticism.

This whole "incel" thing seems like a psyop. Way too much media amplification to be a thing. The guy may have been on psychotropics, but then half the left is on happy pills. So let's come up with some other pejorative to distract the masses from the root cause.
Stuart Galbraith Posted February 6 Posted February 6 The reverse can also be true of course. That the narrative this has to be a 'plot' by leftism, when it was just a crazy freak doing what crazy freaks do. The same of course happened in Southport, where the right desperately tried to shoehorn it into being a muslim plot when it was not. People were doing mass shootings and murders, long before Wokeism became even fashioniable as a cause celebre.You dont need political inspiration or drugs to go off the reservation and start murdering innocent people. You just need to be batshit crazy, and that generally doesnt have political affiliation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleveland_Elementary_School_shooting_(San_Diego) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bath_School_disaster
PaulFormerlyinSaudi Posted February 6 Posted February 6 Remarkable how little coverage this mass killing has received.
Stuart Galbraith Posted February 6 Posted February 6 If he had been a Muslim or from Africa, you know full well every right wing podcast or news channel would be all over it. Its not a demographic they want to cover, because it doesnt fit the narrative. Sorry, I dont want to turn this into a political rant, what happened in Sweden was surely dreadful enough. At least they avoided the mayhem we had when our politicians desperately tried to turn the Southport murders into political theatre, and the ensuing riots.
