I dont speak swedish natively, but the translation looks good and Dagens 
Nyheter is a major swedish newspaper. I am not surprised really, the first 
reports about looting from my own newssources was reported as "The People of 
Iraq Raises Against the Iraqi Regime". It's only "natural" that the americans 
soldiers wanted the buildings of the old regime to be looted, in other words; 
"spoiled". Americans are just not too smart and things got expectedly out of 
hand.
