Here we go again

Swedish foreign minister Anna Lindh has been murdered. She was stabbed yesterday afternoon while shopping in downtown Stockholm, and died early this morning after spending the entire night on the operating table.

The mind goes back to a morning a little over 17 years ago when my father came back inside after fetching the newspaper and exclaimed "They've shot Olof Palme!"

We'll see if they find the murderer this time. And if we get to have the same sad media circus all over again.
