#3 I read the subject as:
"U.S. Wants to Leash Swedish Submarine"

Sounds kinda kinky, I like it better. :-)

#7 What can we possible gain from the Swedes? They need to stick to their output of beautiful blonde women and very delicious meatball dishes and leave the "...excellent combat management systems" to us! There is nothing in Sweden Bin Laden would like to blow up!

#9 sweden historically is pretty good at building weapons - they built their own during the cold war - and has exported as well. Looks like their military is friendly, and the govt may cooperate - no need to blame all Swedes for the Greens looniness.
