team in the last few days there were almost identical scenes everywhere you see a flame i can swedish media say at least about one hundred cars are now burnt out pieces of metal police have made a number of arrests but basically the country still in the dark about who's behind the menace who was overthrown for it. you can. hear from there. in about three weeks swedes will be voting for their new parliament well now politicians there have more things to worry about than stuff like their election promos for the most any custom have the question has to be asked of those people and if there's no one to hack who are you doing what do you think you are a bomb if you destroy the whole area of the neighborhood for the children on their way to a free school you have to see turns out cause we're going to be hard response from society any of us are somewhat strong words but not as emotional as society which

5:39 pm
dark forces. they want the elections to be about arsons they want to fuel discussed and fear i hope the whole thing is not orchestrated by the dark forces that threaten our democracy and our independence. last night's events with my mom fled before the election were well organized would not surprise me if the extreme right were involved in some way a false flag by the extreme right version is popular among some journalists to. visit inside desperate to resteal explain the attacks including blaming them on rush in strength to for man to invest before the election in. sweden democrats sympathises of running around in the suburbs burning cars in a coordinated action to direct criticism of the suburbs population in the hope of favoring s.d. to make sure sweden can dodge any russian efforts to screw up its election

institutions that were once seen as being fair it just because of the law being questioned i think it's a good thing that they're being questioned because they haven't been fair and just but it's also very disruptive to the american system as. a military intelligence compound is being attacked in the afghan capital kabul two gunmen have been killed by security forces officers finally took control of the building from where the gunmen had been firing at the compound and it by university was also placed on lockdown a group yet claimed responsibility for the attack when this latest assault does come as the country's security services struggle to deal with the spike in terror attacks. which. my friends and i were sitting an exam in class the first period finished and
