Sweden video: Muslims fire rockets at crowds and police on New Year’s Eve in Malmo

Jan 4, 2017 9:45 am By Robert Spencer

Malmo is overwhelmingly Muslim, but the perpetrators are not identified in this story. We can’t have people thinking that Muslim immigration might pose any problems, now, can we?

“Battlefield Sweden: Police admit Malmo isn’t safe as thugs send fireworks into crowds,” by Lizzie Stromme, Express, January 3, 2017:

SWEDISH police have admitted the city of Malmo, which was been described as a “battlefield”, is not safe as they failed to stop thugs from sending fireworks into the crowd on New Year’s Eve.

On December 31, police struggled to cope with rowdy crowds wreaking havoc across the Scandinavian nation as more than 50 incidents of people sending rockets at police, public transport and rescue services were reported in west Sweden alone.

In one shocking clip from Malmo – Sweden’s third largest city – the destructive youths can be seen revelling in the chaos as they launch fireworks into the crowd gathered outside to see in the new year.

The rampage at Mollevang square was filmed by Jash Doweyko-Jurkowski, who described it as a battlefield.

Speaking to thelocal.se, he said: “Where I stood in the square I’d estimate around 20-25 people were shooting rockets, but it’s important to point out I was mostly standing in one place. There were several other places in the square where it was happening.

“When I moved to Malmo I always heard that ‘Mollevangen’ is a bit like a battlefield on New Year’s Eve, that it’s standard there and more or less a tradition.”

Police confirmed the area was taken over by thugs each year and no guarantees for safety could be given despite officers being present.

Admitting it is not safe to enter the Malmo square on NYE, police spokesman Nils Norling said: “It’s known that you can’t guarantee your own safety if you’re there on New Year’s Eve. There’s a risk you could be hit with a rocket.

“We had a number of police patrols in place there to make sure no one was injured and move anyone if necessary.

“It’s also the case that when police are there they can be a target for someone who wants to shoot a rocket at them, so it’s difficult for them to police. No arrests were made and no police reports filed however.”

In the early hours of the morning, Malmo police were also forced to shoot a 28-year-old man in the leg twice after a short stand off.

Officers were called out at around 5.30am after someone was “feeling ill”, however at the scene they found an axe and knife-wielding male.

“When the patrol arrived they found the man intimidating, which led to one of the officers firing shots,” Fredrik Bratt, of the Malmo police, said.

Malmo was far from the only Swedish city to be hit by rampaging thugs as a police station in Katrineholm, in the south-west of the country, had a suspected hand grenade hurled at the building.

Luckily none was injured in the sick stunt, but the station’s entry door and a window was shattered, in addition to four cars being damaged by the blast.

The incidents are far from unique as Sweden has been hit with a huge surge in violent incidents and crime since 2015.

In 2016, police placed more than 50 areas on a “no-go zone” list as the force is reaching breaking point.

    This is not jihad. Just a sample of the wild, uncivilized and irresponsible. Generations of distance and yet among us there are also savages … and not a few.
    It is the same thing that happens after a bombing or when there are shots .. the scene is full of children, then something happens to some child and they use him as martyr, showing his corpse in the crowd. Islam + overpopulation + lack of education = weapon of mass destruction.
    Poor Sweden, wonderful country, kind and edgy people … they are allowing their society to be destroyed … also the rest of Europe .. we are going to fuck. We have opened the doors to the barbarians … and having to hear that Islam is a religion (society) of peace … is absurd.

    If Muslim’s shoot fireworks respond with grenade launchers. This is war and the response should be overwhelming. Burning a car should be met with deadly force. This is the only language the savages understand. If they want to go see allah kakbar lets help them on their way, immediately.

    Right now they are using fireworks. It is a dry run. Training. Learning about police response. Eventually it will be weapons and RPGs.

    Sweden, you wanted it, you have it, you own it. You have no excuses.

    Everytime I see crap like this it makes me angry!!! I’ve always thought the police will be cracking heads and dragging people off to jail for rioting and that is what this is, when dangerous and destructive behavior is done by a mob! Everytime I see this and nothing is done about these animals, they just get bolder and see how weak their host country, peoples are, people better confront this madness or they’ll end up ruled by it! If government too weak and stupid, then the people better organize!

      The real problem is, Thomas, that in such a muslim – riot situation, the police, ordered presumably by the politicos, arrest not the rioting Muslims, but rather the locals trying to oppose the rioters At least, that’s how matters stand in the UK..

    “A suspected hand grenade…sick stunt…” Hurling a hand grenade at a police station is not a “sick stunt.” it is an act of guerrilla warfare….

    Did anyone read the article?

    “When I moved to Malmo I always heard that ‘Mollevangen’ is a bit like a battlefield on New Year’s Eve, that it’s standard there and more or less a tradition.”

    Has this been going on for years, decades?

    Is it just Muslims doing this?

      Good question. From the video is seems some of the perpetrators, near a falafel shop, aren’t exactly blond, blue-eyed white Swedes though.

    This is becoming a ritual in European cities. During New Year’s Eve they test if they can conquer the public space.

    Have King Gustav and his family been to Malmo in the last 15 years? 20 years?? What’s the point of having royal families then if they don’t lift a finger to halt the destruction of their nation that their ancestors fought to build and defend??? You only see them at the Peace Prize dinner or at a Swiss ski resort or getting married to some other elite person.

    Then again, Queen Elizabeth II has not even bothered to honor her late and brave father, King George VI, by giving a “Speech” to rally her subjects and point out the spiral of destruction certain malefactors have wrought to their green and pleasant land. Nope, just ribbon cuttings at various brutalistic-concrete “Community Centers” in random towns and horse racing at Ascot. They lost the “Great” in Great Britain in the 1980s after Thatcher….

      My disappointment in Queen Elizabeth matches your own. I once admired her but no longer. Her nation is being transformed for the worst and losing freedom rapidly and she has said and done virtually nothing.

      What good is any office if you can’t lay it on the line from time to time when your nation is in peril? And those aridly stating constitutional technicalities about the role of the British monarch in order to exculpate the Queen are part of the problem too.

    Damn barbarians.

    ………………………………..

    Actually, Malmö is only about 20% Muslim–but that is enough to make it a violent Muslim “No Go Zone”.

    ………………………………..

    This is not a “tradition”, anymore than New Year’s car burnings by Muslims are a “tradition” in France. Instead, it is admitted surrender.

    Now I know even our brutal police (Kenya) can have some extremely useful purpose under certain circumstances. Generally unless a mob is agitating peacefully and for a recognized purpose and preferably led by a public figure, as soon as a riotous mob confronts our police, bones would be broken and live shots fired. Our police is very “cowardly” in that they don’t entertain the slightest injuries among themselves in the name of duty. They would rather shoot first. It is generally accepted that when the riot police is over whelmed and the paramilitary police is called in, there is only one and only one purpose; break as many bones as possible indiscriminately. It is unlawful and dangerous as very many innocent people become victims, but somehow it works miracles.

    The thugs are Muslims?
    Muslims are wasted on Allah like an addict is wasted on heroin, whiskey etc, except that the Islamic infusion starts at birth which is then another wheel ever spinning for Allah.
    These are not simply boys being naughty, i surmise, they are part of the Muslim majority.
    No mention of Islãm then?

    Swedes / Sweden: Round up the Muslims and deport them. All of them. Close the Mosques. You owe Islam/Muslims nothing.
    .
    Absolutely nothing.
    .
    Comprehensive deportation. In detail.
