As Israel will probably call the positive reactions of now-released Hamas hostages Stockholm Syndrome, this post's caption has made me learn that Stockholm Syndrome WAS MADE UP TO COVER INCOMPETENT COPS AND GOVERNMENT!

Below is from Wikipedia with spaces put in for reading clarity

According to accounts by Kristin Enmark, one of the hostages, the police were acting incompetently, with little care for the hostages' safety. This forced the hostages to negotiate for their lives and releases with the robbers on their own. In the process, the hostages saw the robbers behaving more rationally than the police negotiators and subsequently developed a deep distrust towards the latter.[9] Enmark (hostage) had criticized Bejerot (psychiatrist who invented the term) specifically for endangering their lives by behaving aggressively and agitating the captors. She had criticized the police for pointing guns at the convicts while the hostages were in the line of fire, and she had told news outlets that one of the captors tried to protect the hostages from being caught in the crossfire. She was also critical of prime minister Olof Palme, as she had negotiated with the captors for freedom, but the prime minister told her that she would have to content herself with dying at her post rather than Palme giving in to the captors' demands.[10][11] Ultimately, Enmark explained she was more afraid of the police, whose attitude seemed to be a much larger, direct threat to her life than the robbers.[12] [Jess Hill, a journalist who criticized this in 2019] observed that not only was Bejerot's diagnosis of Enmark made without ever having spoken to her, it was in direct response to her public criticism of his actions during the siege.[9]

Bonus, here's what the captor/bank said lol:

Olsson later said in an interview that he could have easily killed the hostages in the beginning, but over time it became more difficult, as he developed an emotional bond with them:[12]

It was the hostages' fault. They did everything I told them to. If they hadn't, I might not be here now. Why didn't any of them attack me? They made it hard to kill. They made us go on living together day after day, like goats, in that filth. There was nothing to do but get to know each other.

Erin Bow:

"I just read -- in the book SEE WHAT YOU MADE ME DO by Jess Hill -- about the incident in Stockholm for which Stockholm Syndrome is named, and I am royally pissed off on behalf of all women, buckle up.

So, in 1973 there was this bank robbery In Stockholm. Two gunmen took four bank clerks hostage. This doesn't happen much in Sweden, and the police response can most charitably be described as inept. They surrounded the bank and kept it under siege for six days.

The public was rapt. The police probably felt they couldn't back down.

They got off to a bang up start when they sent their psychiatrist Nils Bejerot and a teenaged kid THOUGHT was the gunman's younger brother into the bank to negotiate. The kid was not in fact the younger brother and he got shot. Nils got out, though. Put a pin in that.

One of the hostages was a woman named Kristin Enmark. She strategically got close to the gunman who seemed more sane and more stable, because she thought that getting his protection was the best bet for getting out of there.

Definitely she didn't want to leave their lives in the hands of the police. She tried to talk to our friend Nils on the phone -- he refused to talk to her.

From inside the bank she gave a radio interview: "[The police] are playing with our lives. And they don't even want to talk to me, who is the one who will die if anything happens."

She was terrified the police would storm the bank and she and the other hostages would be killed in the cross fire. She even called the Swedish Prime Minister, proposing a plan where she and another hostage would leave the besieged bank with the two robbers.

The prime minister refused to agree, saying they couldn't give in to the demands of criminals. He told her: "Well, Kristin, you can't get out of the bank. You will have to content yourself that you will have died at your post."

When the police finally did teargas the place, they captured the gunmen and paraded them up and down the street. Enmark had had quite enough of theatre that would have cast her as "dead hero" and now wanted her to be "dazed victim."

She refused to get into a stretcher, walking out of the bank instead. She was not visibly traumatized in what the public considered the appropriate way. And she was critical of the police, especially their psychiatrist, our boy Nils.

It was at that point that he made up a syndrome -- Norrmalmstorg Syndrome, for the part of the city, later Stockholm Syndrome -- on the spot, and diagnosed her with it without ever talking to her personally.

Jess Hill writes: Stockholm Syndrome is a myth invented to discredit women victims of violence, created by a psychiatrist with an obvious conflict of interest, whose first instinct was to silence the woman questioning his authority.

The worst of it is this made-up disorder has been used to discredit (mostly but not exclusively) women who live with protracted danger and make strategic decisions about how and whether to resist.

In domestic abuse (a term author Hill prefers to domestic violence), Stockholm Syndrome is a tool for keeping the focus on the victim (“why didn’t she leave”) and not the perpetrator, or the system."

Scandinavia and Finland : Services and Fares leaflet : British Railways (Eastern Region) : 1960 by mikeyashworth Via Flickr: One of the series of leaflets issued by British Railways describing long-distance European rail travel using the then many ferry crossings to the Continent. Many of these steamer servces were at the time owned and operated by British Railways. Issued biannually, for Summer and Winter Seasons, the editions usually had different covers relating to the country or groups of countries the leaflet related to. At the time, prior to widespread air travel and the Channel Tunnel, the various ferry services, and allied train connections, were the main option for most travellers. These were commissioned from a range of artists and designers and this series, for Winter 1960/61, feature artworks by Reginald Lander (1930 - 1980) who undertook many commissions for British Railways and other clients. As well as the BR totem the covers also, unusually, feature the badge of the C.I.E.C., the European Railway Information Centre based in Rome who were the trans-national European railway organisation allied to the International Union of Railways. This leaflet gives details of a surprisingly varied number of routes including travel from London via Harwich to Germany and onwards to Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland; routes from Victoria station via Ostend, Brussels and onwards through Cologne; the Harwich to Esbjerg services using the Royal Danish Mail Services of Det Forenede Dampskibs-Selskab: London Tilbury and Gothenburg; Bergen Line sailings from Newcastle upon Tyne to Stavanger, Bergen and Oslo that included through trains from Kings Cross to Tyne Commission Quay; Newcastle to Oslo via Kristiansand and the Olsen Line; Associated Humber Lines services fromGoole to Copenhagen (Fridays with limited passenger accomodation), and the summer onlu Newcastle - Esbjerg/Copenhagen services of the Det Forenede Dampskibs-Selskab. At this date British Railways had an office in Stockholm at Norrmalmstorg 1.

Yesterday I was going to östasiatiska passing kungsträdgården and on the NK side there's lots of construction so I was just standing there waiting to pass the street for what felt like way too long when 3 young women, all dressed in long black coats passed me ignoring the gående hänvisas till andra sidan ↖️ sign and walking into traffic on the other side towards Norrmalmstorg, one of them with a neon yellow Birkin bag and another with an unlit cigarette in her hand that she was trying to light, so I just went in tow, following after then like let's go on an adventure girlies

Also love the inconsistencies in reports about the Norrmalmstorg Robbery. Like the Swedish version of the Wikipedia article simultaneously lists 0 injured and claims a cop was shot and injured his hand as well as claiming another was hit in both the face and hand by a gun. Are cops not people?

[ad_1] The bank robbery and hostage situation that led to the coining of the term "Stockholm syndrome" began on this day in history, Aug. 23, 1973. On that date, Jan-Erik Olsson, an escaped prisoner who was sentenced to three years in prison for grand larceny, burst into Sveriges Kreditbanken, located in Stockholm's Norrmalmstorg square, armed with a submachine gun. In an attempt to hide his identity as a native Swede, Olsson put on an American accent and said, in English, "The party has just begun," according to the website of the History Channel.ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY, AUGUST 22, 1851, SCHOONER AMERICA WINS FIRST AMERICA'S CUP TROPHYAs it turned out, the "party" had indeed just begun: After wounding a police officer, Olsson then held four employees of the bank hostage for five days. Olsson demanded roughly $700,000 in Swedish and foreign currency, access to a getaway car and the release of Clark Olofsson, a man Olsson had befriended while in prison.  Press photographers and police snipers crouch side by side on a roof opposite the Kreditbanken bank on Norrmalmstorg square in Stockholm on Aug. 24, 1973. The term "Stockholm syndrome" was coined after the hostages were freed. (ROLAND JANSSON/TT NEWS AGENCY/AFP via Getty Images)While these demands were met by the Swedish police — including a full tank of gas for the supplied Ford Mustang getaway car — Olsson did not release the four hostages nor did he agree to actually leave the bank, said the History Channel.The whole affair played out on television. The hostage situation was the first Swedish crime to be aired in real-time.  ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY, AUGUST 11, 1934, AMERICA'S MOST NOTORIOUS PRISONERS ARRIVE AT ALCATRAZOn August 28, the hostage situation finally ended after Swedish police fired tear gas into the bank. Olsson and Olofsson left the vault and were arrested. No physical harm was done to any of the four hostages, but their behavior throughout their ordeal intrigued mental health professionals.  Jan-Erik Olsson, seen here in handcuffs, burst into a Swedish bank and held four employees hostage on August 23, 1973.   (BENT O NORDIN BON/TT NEWS AGENCY/AFP via Getty Images)"The captives quickly forged a strange bond with their abductors," noted the History Channel. Olsson gave one of the hostages a wool jacket when she was cold, and "gave her a bullet from his gun as a keepsake," the same source noted.Another hostage, Elisabeth Oldgren, was allowed out of the bank vault, albeit attached to a rope, when she said she was experiencing claustrophobia. The hostages were on a first-name basis with their captors by the second day of their captivity.  "I remember thinking he was very kind to allow me to leave the vault," Oldgren told The New Yorker a year after she was freed.The hostages were on a first-name basis with their captors by the second day of their captivity — and were even concerned for their overall welfare. ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY, AUGUST 5, 1962, MARILYN MONROE IS FOUND DEAD IN LOS ANGELESHostage Kristin Enmark told Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme that she "fully trust(ed) Clark and the robber" and that she was "not desperate." "They haven’t done a thing to us. On the contrary, they have been very nice. But, you know, Olof, what I am scared of is that the police will attack and cause us to die," she said. Enmark also insisted that the police allow Olsson and Olofsson to leave the vault before any of the hostages. Gunnel Birgitta Lundbald (upper left), Kristin Enmark (upper right), Elisabeth Oldgren (lower left) and Sven Safstrom (lower right) were all held hostage by Jan-Erik Olsson for five days beginning on Aug. 23, 1973.
