Swedish Islamists riot

Wednesday, May 12th, 2010

Islamists in Sweden rioted to defend their right to attack an artist in the Swedish university town of Uppsala.

Artist Lars Vilks came to fame as the person who drew a controversial cartoon depicting the Muslim prophet Mohammed. Conservative Muslims insist Mohammed is not to be portrayed in images since they regard this as an insult to their religion. However, they see no contradiction between this position and the fact that conservative Muslims are among the most virulent portrayers of other religions in an insulting manner, in particular Hinduism, Christianity and Judaism.

Yesterday at a talk on free speech given by artist Lars Vilks – who is under police protection owing to previous death threats from Muslims – a number of Islamists attacked him with the breathtakingly simple explanation that it is their right to protect their honour.

Watch this film clip to see the attack and the way the rioters treat the long-suffering Swedish police. Hat tip to blogs Tundra Tabloids and Jihad i Malmö.

Now watch how the Muslim rioters behave outside as the police work to contain the threatening situation.

A number of rioters were arrested.

2010 is election year in Sweden. After hearing the blood-curdling chants of “Allah-u-akhbar” (Arabic for God is great) in a soundtrack reminiscent of the beheadings of countless Westerners broadcast on TV from the Islamic world, the police officers in attendance and their colleagues will no doubt be thinking particularly carefully about how they vote this September.

Swedish Islamist Mohammed Omar has started an “Anti-Zionist Party” – yes, in Sweden! – so law enforcement officers can expect more of the same should he gain a foothold in the upcoming elections. Omar is aided and abetted by a coalition of LabourRed and Green parties (read Red-Green Extremists) who are unconcerned about the welfare of Swedes but, like Swedish “Christian Aid” organisation Diakonia, show an unhealthy interest in aiding Islamic terrorists in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon. Swedish journalist Per Gudmundson writes about this, (some text is in Swedish, most is in English), while Lisa Abramowics and David Frankfurter wrote as far back as 2004 that Sweden is funding Islamic terrorism. Meantime, the News That Matters blog offers additional evidence of the Swedish penchant for using public funding to assist Islamic terrorism.

Where does Sweden stand today?

Wednesday, November 11th, 2009

What is happening in Sweden, that one-time haven of tranquility that despatched its White Buses to bring back Scandinavian survivors of the Nazi death camps as well as a large number of European Jews who somehow survived the Holocaust?

It was Sweden that once gave life and hope to thousands of tattered remnants of a vibrant Jewish community in Europe before the Nazis took over and changed the course of history for ever.

For an up-to-date perspective of Sweden’s current status and the way this country is now perceived abroad, read the speech given today by Tomas Sandell, Founding Director of the European Coalition for Israel, at a hearing in the Swedish Parliament in Stockholm and reprinted in the Jerusalem Post .

Sandell’s speech raises concerns about double standards, wilful blindness, political correctness in absurdum and a desperate unwillingness to confront savagery whenever it takes the guise of fanatical political Islamism.

In the aftermath of the massacre in Fort Hood carried out by a US Armed Forces officer of Palestinian Muslim descent crying “Allah u’Akhbar” (God is great) as he executed his victims, and the Obama administration’s knee-jerk response that whatever and whoever was responsible, it had nothing to do with Islam or any Muslims anywhere, Sandell’s words are driven home all the more forcefully.

Caroline Glick writes as follows of US President Barack Hussein Obama’s reaction (his middle name Hussein is a variant spelling of the terrorist’s surname Malik Nadal Hassan): “It hurts that Barack Hussein Obama’s first statement about the massacre at Fort Hood was so emotionally cut off from what happened. It hurts that he thought the most important thing to say about the massacre is that we mustn’t jump to conclusions about the motivations of the terrorist who killed his fellow soldiers despite the fact that he was screaming Allah Akhbar as he shot them.

Recently Swedish-born poet Mohammed Omar announced that he will form a new Swedish national party to fight the next elections, and that this party has just one single item on its agenda – anti-Zionism and the destruction of the State of Israel. The the trends are thus very worrying indeed. The more so since his party aims at uniting Far-Left, Far-Right and fanatical Islamist elements under one banner.

Next door in Norway, meantime, the racist hounding of the world’s sole Jewish nation continues unabated at the same time as grossly indecent human rights abuses in large swathes of the Muslim and Arab worlds are routinely disregarded. CAMERA reports on the latest drive to implement an academic boycott of Israel.

The attacks continue, on our doorstep, in our own backyard and on a global scale.

A few days ago, Iran’s latest shipment of 600 tonnes of rockets and other war materiel to terrorist organisation Hizbollah in the Lebanon was intercepted by Israel. This shipment and others like it are in breach of UN resolutions 1701 and 1747. In a rare move, the US condemned Iran’s flagrant breach of UN resolutions. Having in addition just reneged on all previous fledgling deals regarding its nuclear ambitions, Iran’s Ahmadinejad took a break from Holocaust denial to counter the US stance with the announcement that he has the key to world peace:

The US has to choose: support Iran, or support Israel. No other option is on the table.

I wonder if the US President reads the press.
