The ancestral hatreds among the various Scandinavians would be quaint if it didn’t make them more vulnerable to infiltration bya serious enemy. Many years ago someone taught me this ditty.

A thousand Swedes crawled through the weeds
to kill one lone Norwegian.
A thousnad more stood by and swore
it was a mighty battle.

Lighten up guys. Real bad people are trying to kill us.
