Talking Swedish sub travels up Mississippi River into Canada

All this talk about Swedish military juggernaut I thought you all should hear about this, its amazing!!!!!

Swedish sub "HMS Gotland" enters the Mississippi River from the Gulf of Mexico and travels over 3900 miles north up the Mississippi River and Red River into Winnipeg Canada and surfaces in the middle of Winnipeg (in the Red River).

Surprised on lookers cheered and threw flowers to the Swedish sailors.

USA and Canadian governments and militarizes are enraged and embarrassed.

Swedish government and military laugh at the Canadian and USA incompetence.

Apparently the first information to be gained by USA and Canadian military is that the sub went up the Red & Mississippi River submerged during day light hours and surfaced during night. The HMS Gotland was hidden electronically by a Swedish SAAB 340B which was using "Swedish stealth technology" and long range fuel tanks. The SAAB 340B was escorted by a squadron of Swedish Gripen also using "Swedish stealth technology" and long range fuel tanks.

I have attached a few pics of the HMS Gotland (as well as the people cheering) on the Red River in Winnipeg. I even went down to the docks to see it for myself!!!!

Go Sweden GO Sweden GO Sweden GO !!!!!!! Sweden Rocks!!!! Sweden Rules!! The entire world should fear Sweden!!! USA look out Sweden is the new Super Power!!!

Is that Swedish sub story real? That's pretty cool, doesnt say much for the US though.

Of course not. Remember the story of the canoe and bow, Les? Hmmm... I might have a better ending to this story. hehe
