Swedes Find Definitive Evidence of Submarine, Russians Call Them Unmanly

This is disturbing on several levels. The Swedes have traditionally been the last to join up in any conflict, preferring to stay neutral and just protect their own territory. Having lived there for a year I can say the average Swede has no interest in getting involved in any outside adventures, believing that "to each their own". The Russians seem bent on provoking anybody they possibly can for some silly reason, and that is really a scary thought. Vlad is not the most stable individual they could have, he has been around almost as long as Stalin was, and is bent on ensuring his domination of the scene until he falls over.

To whose propaganda arm does this site belong?

  It is hard to assume it is someones propaganda arm, their story is basically relating facts, there was a submarine and it belonged to someone and it didn't have any right or reason to be there. The fact the Russians called them "unmanly" apart from being a stupid, immature comment, shows that they hit a nerve with their statements. As propaganda I do not see any good service such an article could perform.

    Restarting a cold war, perhaps, when the elite are searching for new ways to instill fear.

      That would seem to be what is going on, there is a guy who has a think tank that is saying the global warming people are all wrong, and that we are heading into another Maunder Minimum as in the 1700's where for 30 years we were in a little ice age. His theory is Putin has been told this, and wants Ukraine back as it has been a warm weather producer of wheat, and he will need to feed the masses. As part of this, he needs to agitate in as many places as possible, to actually cover up the big agitation of taking Ukraine. Possible....

        And...despite my resistance to conspiracy theories that would make sense because this is what Russia has done for centuries,

        Mimi, actually I have become quite fond of conspiracy theories. I have seen so many lies, and their exponential increase in the last few years, that most conspiracy theories seem to have more of a "look at the truth" attitude than most "facts" that turn out to be lies crafted for some special interest group or the government. There is a video on youtube where a guy dug up the video of Kennedy arriving in Dallas, getting in the cars, and the 2 agents who were supposed to be back on the car being waved off by the head bozo, yelling at them, and making them get in the second car. You can clearly see one of them waving his arms in anger at the dude and he yells at him again, and they take off. A few minutes later Kennedy is dead...with at least one or two bullets coming in the way where they would have been blocked had the agents been there. Conspiracy? No one has ever explained why they deviated from a set procedure done for every other motorcade, only in Dallas. There are a few other things in the mix, but that's enough for me to believe they will lie to us anytime it suits them.
