Earlier today I mostly thought about World Trade Center and 9/11 and about what I was doing that afternoon two years and one day ago when the news reached us here in Sweden. Well, unfortunately later this afternoon we got a reminder that bad things really do happen in Sweden too. Our foreign minister Anna Lindh was stabbed while shopping at one of our biggest and most wellknown department stores here in Stockholm. TV-channels have sent news updates every hour for the rest of the evening and the latest news is that she is in very serious condition and have been in surgery for the last seven hours. Our prime minister almost cried when he talked on the press conference in TV.
