A few weeks back, the government of Sweden sent out a booklet to every household in the country urging citizens to prepare for war or other crises. A few months back, they told citizens that they should be prepared to last for at least a week without any help from the government. Last night, in the most unsettling move yet, they mobilized the entire Swedish Home Guard for an “unannounced preparedness exercise.” All 40 battalions have been activated, effective immediately.
The report is on the Försvarsmakten website, which is the official website of the Swedish Armed Forces. Here’s the English translation:
For the first time since 1975, the Armed Forces carry out an unannounced emergency preparedness control of the entire Hemvärnet. All staff around Sweden who are part of one of the 40 home war battalions and who have the opportunity to attend the evening of 5 June and during the national day will be in charge of service. The alarm is ordered by the Armed Forces and participation in the exercise is voluntary.
“We are committed to strengthening Sweden’s defense and increasing our operational capabilities. This is a way to do it. This exercise is great in several ways. We are testing the emergency chain for almost half our intervention organization, we have not done since 1975, says Micael Bydén, the commander.
Initially, staff – from north to south – will be contacted and invited to stand for service. Thereafter, relations will begin to solve tasks, such as protection, guarding and patrolling. During the national day, home care personnel will be seen in many places around the country, from ports and airports to streets and squares. Since it is a voluntary exercise, the Armed Forces can not force anyone to settle, but the chief commander shows great confidence in his staff. (source)
What this means
The Hemvärnet is the Swedish equivalent of the American National Guard.
The Home Guard – National Security Forces (Swedish: Hemvärnet – Nationella Skyddsstyrkorna) is a military reserve force of the Swedish Armed Forces. It was formally established on May 29, 1940, during World War II upon popular demand. While originally composed of former militia groups, today it comprises half of the Swedish Army, thus constituting the basis of the territorial defense of Sweden.
The Swedish National Home Guard consists mainly of local rapid response units, numbering 17,000 of the 22,000 total Home Guard strength, organized in 40 battalions, with 23 associated auxiliary defense organizations. (source)
This “unannounced preparedness exercise” may be just that – a readiness drill. But there are a few things that ring some warning bells for me:
- A “drill” of this magnitude hasn’t happened since 1975 at the height of the Cold War
- It’s occurring on the heels of two other warnings of looming war or crises
- And keep in mind that the war preparedness book that was recently sent out mentioned the possibility of re-establishing conscription (the draft), too.
The Swedish website, The Local, reports:
The exercise is part of Sweden’s national effort to rebuild its Cold War Total Defence strategy in response to an increasingly belligerent Russia. The last time Sweden’s Armed Forces called up the entire Home Guard at once was in 1975 at the height of the Cold War.Just a week ago Sweden’s Civil Contingencies Agency sent out its “If Crisis or War Comes” brochure to more than four million Swedish households, advising them to stock up on water, tinned and dry food, and other essentials to increase Sweden’s resilience.The country also last month reestablished a regiment on the Baltic island of Gotland.In the event of an invasion, Sweden’s Home Guard is responsible for protecting the core functions of the Swedish state, guarding government agencies, airports, or ports, so that the professional army is free for front-line duties.

It would be wise to be on the lookout for something to happen soon. What that “something” might be, of course, is open to speculation.
What do you think is going on?
Could they be preparing to quell a migrant uprising in the no-go zones or are they truly concerned about a threat from Russia? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
They know something that we are not being told. It is going to hit the fan big time.
They are stocking up on meatballs.
Even the chef is stocking up on dough dough dough. Frank Oz.

LOL !
I don’t get it, the Zio-jews run the place, whats the game?
“…..Could they be preparing to quell a migrant uprising in the no-go zones or are they truly concerned about a threat from Russia? Share your thoughts in the comments below……”
Well thank you, Miss Daisy. I think I’ll do just that.
It would be nice if they developed the sense to rid themselves of the rape militia recently arrived from Africa, but unfortunately, as JoeSTP said (above), the country is run by Zio-Jews, so they’re selling the “evil Russian” package to their citizenry in preparation for WW3
fyi,
this is nato sponsored propaganda. if finland mobilizes their forces, then you have to worry.
for any who don’t know about finlands recent history regarding russia, look up “the winter war”.
all finns know about it. and so should folks on this site.
Sweden is heading for a national election and the ruling Leftist parties are lagging way behind in the polls. I think this is a means of distracting from years of dismal fiscal results and public outcries against immigration policies. Something that’s mirrored by elections across Europe with the rise of the national, traditional right.
BINGO!
I believe it’s the buildup to a false flag on Israel and SHTF. Do you feel it?
Good video by Adam Green showing the set up. Scary, realistic. If it goes down, maybe the “commies” will take EU? At the behest of Israel, that is. After all, it’s those evil white Europeans that booted them 109 times.
