The Russians

It is cheap to take a country that does not believe anyone wants it.

At nine o'clock on a September morning a bomb goes off at Reykjavík Airport, and three other airports, simultaneously. Sixty men who entered the country as tourists pick up weapons that were already waiting for them. Iceland has no army. It has never had one. In less than three days a nation discovers how cheap it has always been to take.

Það er ódýrt að taka land sem trúir því ekki að neinn vilji það.

Klukkan níu að morgni septemberdags springur sprengja á Reykjavíkurflugvelli og þremur öðrum flugvöllum samtímis. Sextíu menn sem komu inn í landið sem ferðamenn taka upp vopn sem þegar biðu þeirra.
