   down completely'.   
      
   'Here the parapsychologists have something in which to sink their teeth', wrote   
   the correspondent [in New York City, the USA] of Sydsvenska Dagbladet, Malmö,   
   the only paper - as far as I know - that brought the information about this in   
   Europe. In fact all who read it must have understood what it clearly pointed   
   to. But nobody else but we Marx adherents ever referred again to the 'strange   
   coincidence' of this story told one week in advance."   
      
   The background of that story in fact could only have been one of two things:   
   Either it was a "warning shot" in advance against a manipulation of that TMI   
   reactor which some people in the USA had gotten to know was being planned and   
   wanted to prevent. Or else it was a scare story planted in advance by people   
   who intended to manipulate precisely that reactor precisely a week later and   
   wanted to make people in its vicinity believe that its core indeed was to be   
   made to melt down completely - with then perhaps "a serious release of   
   radioactive substances" - and thus "hopefully" create a public panic in that   
   area (which in the actual event did not occur anyway).   
      
   On the results of the US "Harrisburg" manipulation here in Sweden, where it did   
   "succeed" even more dramatically than in any other country,  I wrote in the   
   same Info part:   
      
   "In several European countries, the 'Harrisburg accident' had considerable   
   repercussions, and in particular here in Sweden. On 4 April, a day later called   
   "Mad Wednesday", several politicians made a complete turnabout - it's known   
   that in the days before, a person employed by the US government had made   
   statements here about how they 'obviously didn't know what significance this   
   event had in the USA and were unable to draw the correct conclusions from it' -   
   and decided on a so-called 'referendum on nuclear power' in Sweden. This took   
   place a year later, on 23.03.1980, and was not just any 'referendum' either.   
   All three 'proposals' in favour of which you were allowed to 'vote' said   
   squarely 'no' to nuclear energy, which according to these 'proposals' was to be   
   curtailed and eventually banned completely in this country - which was then and   
   which in fact is still the one with the largest amount of all of electricity   
   from nuclear power plants per inhabitant (10 GW of installed effect for   
   somewhat less than 9 million people). And to this day, all politicians in   
   Sweden do 'stand by' the 'result' of this 'referendum', the 'democracy' of   
   which you must admit beats even the one of the so-called 'elections' in, for   
   instance, Brezhnev's Soviet Union."   
      
   In fact, in late 1978, a congress of the most important bourgeois political   
   party here in Sweden  the Social-Democratic party, had decided, in view of a   
   certain campaign by others for a "referendum" on nuclear energy then, that that   
   party would oppose any such proposal, as not liable to result in any genuinely   
   democratic referendum, holding instead that the nuclear-energy question should   
   be decided on in the usual parliamentary way. That party, thus, was not yet   
   prepared to kowtow completely to the US imperialists and other extreme   
   perpetrators of the anti-nuclear-energy campaign, on that question. But when I,   
   for instance, after the "Mad Wednesday" asked for a copy of the particular   
   pamphlet that congress's decision on this, I was told by a functionary at the   
   Social Democratic local office that those pamphlets "had all been thrown into   
   the waste basket", not because of any new official party decision on this but   
   simply "because there had now been the Harrisburg accident in the USA".   
      
   This small thing in itself speaks volumes about who it really was that was   
   calling the shots in the "Social-Democratic Workers' Party" here in Sweden,   
   when certain things would come to a crunch - none other than the US   
   imperialists. And the same thing it, basically, was with the other bourgeois   
   parties here too, which remains the case very much still today.   
      
   On "Mad Wednesday" here in Sweden, 04.04.1979, not only Palme was bowled over   
   completely by the US imperialists and their mass medias' "Harrisburg" howling   
   to high heaven - according to later reports, his wife Lisbet, who was later to   
   help protect his (Soviet military intelligence) assassins (in 1986) from   
   getting exposed too, had a certain hand in this - but also, for instance, the   
   leader of the Liberal party (Folkpartiet), Ola Ullsten, who at the time was   
   also the prime minister of this country.   
      
   Jointly, the "leading" politicians here on that day decided on such a   
   "referendum" in 1980 about which several of them already earlier had said,   
   quite correctly, that it would be nothing but a fraud, and further they   
   decided, in part quite illegally as they themselves admitted publicly, to keep   
   suspending the start of operation for two nuclear power reactors which had   
   already been completed one year respectively two years earlier, and to suspend   
   that start for two more, the application for which had been put on the   
   government's desk on 27.03.1979, immediately before the "Harrisburg"   
   manipulation in the USA began. No less than four recently-built nuclear power   
   reactors here were to stand paralyzed, as so much scrap, up until that   
   "referendum". This meant that values corresponding to many millions of dollars   
   were just "thrown into the lake", and had as its purpose to put pressure on the   
   "voters" in the coming "referendum" to "accept" at least one of the two   
   somewhat less extreme "No" propositions which they were to be given as   
   "choices" in that criminal (also according to the existing bourgeois laws at   
   the time) "referendum", because these propositions called  for the utilization   
   in Sweden of "no more than 12 nuclear power reactors" (the politicians here   
   also hoping that people would not notice, or would forget, the "no more than"   
   part here), while the third and very most extreme proposition  among other   
   things said that "no more than 6" such were ever to be allowed to operate, and   
   thus that the other 4, recently built, were to be scrapped at once.   
      
   As I've noted in an Info in Swedish, #276se (of 23.03.2007) on the fantastic   
   and historic "referendum on nuclear power" in this country in 1980, reproducing   
   a 10-page leaflet which I published before it in 1980 and which exposed in   
   detail that record-setting, seemingly mad, fraud attempt and explained the   
   background to it, it was not only one direct representative of the US   
   imperialists but several such persons, all employed by the US government, that   
   were invited to Sweden at that time, in order to "provide support for" the   
   "People's Campaign against Nuclear Power" and for Fälldin in that "referendum",   
   as one newspaper here openly wrote.
