Best headline ever: Belarus expels Sweden’s envoy after teddy bear incident

The nation of Belarus, a leftover from the old Soviet Union, is all upset and in therapy because Swedish democracy activist types organized an invasion of paratrooper teddy bears, each one bearing a message of peace and human rights and such.

Here’s the story: Belarus expels Sweden’s envoy after teddy bear incident

Have you heard of a better prank? Putting a bunch of Crazy Glue on the toilet seat doesn’t compare.

Two small teddy bears

Is there video? Oh yes.

Teddy Bear paratrooper people of Sweden, I salute your creativity and courage. Belarus could have scrambled MiG‘s to shoot you out of the sky. But no, you flew low and steady, allowing the brave teddy bear paratroopers to successfully deploy their chutes and accomplish their mission of peace and tolerance. Well done.

  3. This is fifty shades of awesome. Some sorts of activists can be pretentious or annoying…but these folks here seem to practice what they preach. Yes, let’s spread joy through teddy bear paratroopers! :)
