  • ‘SWEDISH SURGE’ WILL SAVE AFGHANISTAN: “Sweden wants to send more troops to Afghanistan after an assessment by the Armed Forces concluded that the current force of 500 soldiers is too small. The Swedish military wants instead to boost the number of troops on the ground in Afghanistan to 630 by 2011, according to Sveriges Television (SVT).” Boom, motherfuckers. [Washington Independent]

Yeah, but have you ever tried to put together a tank from ikea?

Angela Merkel’s win reassured the Swedes they won’t need those extra 130 guys at home to beat off German soldiers invading Sweden.

magic titty September 30, 2009 at 3:31 pm

Too bad the Finns are joining forces with the Taliban just to kill all the Swedes.

mardam422 September 30, 2009 at 3:31 pm

Is the Swedish Bikini Team part of this deployment?

Crank Tango September 30, 2009 at 3:33 pm

[re=423604]shadowMark[/re]: heh heh heh, you said “beat off German soldiers”

mardam422 September 30, 2009 at 3:33 pm

Now who’s gonna protect the Swedish border from the dirty fucking Norwegians coming to take their jobs making those delicious red fish?

bitchincamaro September 30, 2009 at 3:34 pm

Don’t the Red Wings have like 978 Swedes on their team this year? Maybe Detroit could give up a few. For the troops!!!111!1

Now where did I put that link about the Swedish female soldiers bras catching fire?

[re=423618]Crank Tango[/re]: I’m certain that he did actually mean that literally, if history tells us anything.

Clearly no need for the 40 thousand more troops McChrystal wants now.

[re=423601]Crank Tango[/re]: TENK you for that! (Some assembly required.)

Monsieur Grumpe September 30, 2009 at 3:41 pm

I had a Swedish Surge once. Well worth the $25.

OR

I can just see the Taliban getting together and discussing the ramifications of 130 more Swedes entering into their war.

Muhammad #1 “I heard 130 more Swedes are going to join the American pig dogs.”

Muhammad #2 “Meh.”

They are just sending a guy named Serge. He’s a French expatriate who makes the meatballs. It’s part of the heart, minds and bellies plan to win the war.

Paterlanger September 30, 2009 at 3:46 pm

[re=423601]Crank Tango[/re]: What if one of those little two way hex key thingys were to fall into the hands of the Taliban? What would they not be capable of then?

blinky_twinkie September 30, 2009 at 3:49 pm

The Swedes have an army??

Gorillionaire September 30, 2009 at 3:50 pm

Now all the news footage from Afghanistan will have to have a crude piece of tape on the front with the word “Sweded” written in sharpie on it.

SayItWithWookies September 30, 2009 at 3:50 pm

On a more troubling note, Denmark is sending a company of cartoonists over.

shortsshortsshorts September 30, 2009 at 3:51 pm

But when will we send Jonah Goldberg and Bill Kristol in to simultaneously restore freedom and kill the Taliban— EVERY ONE OF THEM. Jonah Goldberg wishes to be dropped from a plane onto the front lines. He’s going to create Democracy no matter what that mean old Barack Obama says. We will give him an AK47, a few grenades and a bullet proof vest. The rest is history. Screw Sweden. Jonah’s on the cause. To further the cause, we should throw a few of those “ideologues” out with him, because they love democracy so much more than the rest of us.

It’s not their great numbers or their huge gildafinkles that make them so formidable. It’s their special sauce.

Swedes are one thing, but you’ll know we’ve given up when we send in Norwegians.

Oh, ha ha, Wonkette. It’s only funny until they find some guy’s trussed up dead body in the mountains with the word “Swed” written on his chest.

The Swedes are just trying to outdo the Poles, who heroically won the Iraq war for us.

OK, so maybe when it comes to modern guerrilla warfare, the mental image of a thousand or so Volvo drivers doesn’t exactly stike fear into heart. But just you wait until they start laying down those clay tennis courts- That Taliban Davis Cup Team is toast!
