Vad tror ni om detta, kan det finnas någon substans i det hela.
Texten är på engelska så jag gör en summarisk sammanfattning på svenska.
Kontentan att Svenska staten och Palme hamnat i problem med vapensmuggling till bland annat Iran och Irak och när det började gå på tok var det försent att stoppa.
Obs, detta är min tolkning av det hela .
Man kopplar också samman
DA Costa , Algernon och Palme med att deras dödsfall hängde samman med vapenaffärer speciellt
Bofors.

''We were so naive,'' said one important Swedish official, who said his career could be ruined if it were known that we were meeting.
''We thought we could interfere anywhere in the world without taking sides. Palme decided to take a higher profile, and now we are paying the price.''
''The truth about the murder?'' said another Swedish official familiar with Cabinet discussions, who also insisted on anonymity.
''Most of the people in the Government don't want it. It would be disastrous for the Foreign Ministry if people knew how stupid we have been in the [ Persian ] Gulf. The roots of the killing go back to Iran and Iraq. It is hard to say which one. Both had reasons. But the feeling is definitely not to find out.'' I. CHAOS IN STOCKHOLM"
"Olof was un-Swedish,'' said one of his closest friends, Harry Schein, who fled Austria in 1938 and made a life as one of Sweden's richest men, president of the national Investment Bank and chairman of the Swedish Broadcasting Corporation. ''He was too international, too fast. And he was in love with his own language, which made him go too far.
''The hate added to the trauma,'' Schein continued. ''So many people hated him, and they thought the killing must have come from their hate. The guilt. The guilt.''
"But Sweden is also a country that maintains its high standard of living (per capita income is 25 percent higher than in the United States) through foreign trade. Arms sales are part of that prosperity.
Weapons may account for 5 percent or more of Sweden's annual exports of about $45 billion, which is more than a third of its gross national product. The Government has been known to look the other way on weapons sales, liberally granting export permits that certified that materiel was not headed for war zones."
"Palme, facing re-election in 1985, appointed a special prosecutor to investigate the sales. And he stopped the shipments - at least for a time. Specifically, he blocked the 200 additional RBS-70's that Iran had ordered. Also, according to sources in the French Foreign Ministry, the Swedish Prime Minister ordered a ship loaded with 155-millimeter howitzers stopped as it was leaving the port of Malmo bound for Dubai and then, it is believed, Iran.
An Iranian military delegation came to Stockholm to protest the stopping of deliveries. That was on Feb. 4, 1986, three weeks before Palme's murder.
The Iraqis, of course, had protested the sales when they became public. They were also enraged by a program that the Swedes considered an act of humanitarian neutrality: Iranian war wounded were being treated in Swedish hospitals for what the Iranians said were the effects of poison-gas attacks launched by Iraq."
