Sweden distributes 'be prepared for war' leaflet to all 4.8m homes

from the article:

The Swedish government has begun sending all 4.8m of the country's households a public information leaflet telling the population, for the first time in more than half a century, what to do in the event of a war.

Om krisen eller kriget kommer (If crisis or war comes) explains how people can secure basic needs such as food, water and heat, what warning signals mean, where to find bomb shelters and how to contribute to Sweden's "total defence".

The 20-page pamphlet, illustrated with pictures of sirens, warplanes and families fleeing their homes, also prepares the population for dangers such as cyber and terror attacks and climate change, and includes a page on identifying fake news.

"Although Sweden is safer than many other countries, there are still threats to our security and independence," the brochure says. "If you are prepared, you are contributing to improving the ability of the country to cope with a major strain."

Similar leaflets were first distributed in neutral Sweden in 1943, at the height of the second world war. Updates were issued regularly to the general public until 1961, and then to local and national government officials until 1991.

"Society is vulnerable, so we need to prepare ourselves as individuals," said Dan Eliasson of the Swedish civil contingencies agency, which is in charge of the project. "There's also an information deficit in terms of concrete advice, which we aim to provide."


The English version of the leaflet:

I downloaded the English version. It's interesting to look at their perspective on SHTF preps. I will glom a few things from it.
 
I haven't read it yet, but the first question that comes to mind - do they say anything about getting armed? Trained? Or is it all run, hide, hide, run, hide?
 
Clouds have been state side for a few years now...never got no stinking leaflet though...computers/info going to state controlled messages soon. DA COMRADE

Hmm the ages of 16 - 70 expected for conscript if Sweden is attacked.

Guess they are looking for ways to make that huge influx of refugees useful in a more "positive" light :^)
 

I thought that their pamphlet asking Swedes to prepare was light, AND they don't really say what is going on. interesting piece of the puzzle, need to put it aside for a bit as I have no idea where it fits. I don't believe anything the news reports any more, they are thinking Russia is threatening them? WTF? How stupid do they think we are?
 
IKEA should be more than capable of providing every slingshot in their country with enough meatballs to repel any and all invaders....
.... all while being safely sheltered behind quickly assembled particleboard fortresses.

Quickly assembled and IKEA don't belong in the same sentence.
 
'It's not about going around and being worried. It's about being conscious of what is happening and trying to understand it, taking in as much information as possible,' he said. 'We're doing our part here in the Swedish Armed Forces, and you should see this as a completely natural step. An important step.'

What is happening is an invasion of "migrants" from Africa and the Middle East, and an epidemic of crime and rape.
