Yes, in -86 I think. Olof Palme was assassinated on the street on his way home late at night. His murderer has not been caught so far.

His murderer has severe memory problems, as well as a drug/alcohol addict and a genepool partly consisting of wild boar.

Well, they could never prove that he actually committed the murder.
Btw, he sure looks like he took style lessons from Albert Speer

You kept that picture on your hard drive, didn't you?

The assasination of Palme to place in a dark alley after they, he and his wife, had left the cinema. The weapon was a revolver. This was in the middle of the day in the most posh store in the capitol of sweden. The first one could have been planed by professionals. Even if it's hard to think of Christer as a professional anything. This seems like more of a freak incident. Also, I don't think that Lindh in any way is as hated as Palme was by a minority of the population.

The knife helps, though.

Try stabbing someone with your fist and see how far you get. (my my that sounds rather dirty)

I never liked her very much, but I was nowhere near the crime spot.

The latest news is that one stab hit the liver and that the surgery operation is now in it's 5th hour.

They have to close the bleeding sufaces microsurgery which is VERY time consuming. This makes me

Two years ago, I was sitting one meter from communist party leader Gudrun Schyman in an airport lounge. I had a sharp knife in my wallet (this was before 9/11). She had no body guards.

I thought about how easy (technically, not morally) it would be for me to cut her throath and get my 15 minutes of (in)fame, but I'm not a lunatic. She resigned in a tax scandal this spring anyway.

OK, me too. Just wondered in case you might have had some first hand info on the situation in stockholm.

Jesus christ. We were doing a student radio show on the referendum and weren't sure what to do with the incident, in the end we ended up not mentioning it at all. I feel a bit bad about it 'cause I was kinda campaigning (well, being interviewed) as the suspenison had been placed.

Can this somehow be related to the upcoming euro referendum, even in the twisted mind of the attacker?

When it happened I was enjoying my whiskey on the flight from Helsinki. I did not find out until seven when I got home and turned on the TV.

Apart from some of the parties in the parliament, there are neo-nazis, ultra-communists and anarchists opposing the Euro. Those groups are not afraid of using political violence. I doubt it was a planned attack, but someone from one of those groups might have seen her, followed her and taken the opportunity when it walked by.
