Priorities, priorities. The Swedes know who their new masters are.
“Swedish Diplomats Move National Holiday to Avoid Clash With Ramadan,” by Kieran Corcoran, Heat Street, May 19, 2017 (thanks to Lookmann):
A group of Swedish diplomats moved the celebration of their national holiday forward an entire month to stop the date clashing with Ramadan.
Officials at the Swedish consulate in Jerusalem had a party for the National Day of Sweden on May 6th. The actual date of the celebration is June 6th.
A recent social media post shared photos of the event, which took place at a hotel in Ramallah, the de facto capital of the Palestinian territories:
When asked why the event had been held weeks before the proper date, the consulate responded: “Yes – the national day is on 6 June – we’re looking forward to it! But celebrations coincided with Ramadan, so we chose to bring them forward this year.”
Sweden is known for being one of the least patriotic nations in the world.
Its national day – which only became a public holiday in 2005 – is one of the few occasions when it is deemed acceptable to be overly proud to be Swedish….

If you hate your culture you won’t protect it. It’s why nationalism and patriotism are kryptonite to leftists.
TheDane says
The Swedes have always been known to be cowards, here in Scandinavia. During WWII, Danish fishermen risked their lives in order to sail Jews to safety in Sweden, and they sometimes had to literally club and beat the Swedes in order to force the wimps to take the Jews ashore in Sweden. I am starting to regard Swedes as a retarded people; they lack brains and bravery!

Please explore ISKCON and keep your roots intact.
James says
June 6 ought to be a day of enjoying pork, alcohol, walking the dog, buying in Koran loo-roll, naming Teddy bears Mohammed, burning Korans, and drawing Mo-themed cartoons.

Charlie in NY says
Who knew the Swedes celebrated D-Day as their national holiday? After pretending to be neutral, but in fact bartering “neutrality” for supplying the Nazi war machine, the Swedes eventually chose sides once it was clear to them who was going to win. Do they imagine that Islam is the “strong horse” today and that they are making a similar choice?
Brian Hoff says
Alot of useful intel about nazie germa ny came by way of Sweden about the nazie haveing a V2 rocket.

Doesn’t Brian Hoff love the Nazis? Most Muslims do.
Alarmed Pig Farmer says
First it was “Tiny Minority” Bush hosting an Eid al-Fitr gala at the White House to celebrate Islam. Now we have national holidays being moved so as to not to offend Moslems. What percentage of Sweden’s population is Moslem? The trigger threshold for takeover appears to be even lower than I had feared.
billybob says
Speaking of which, do you suppose will Trump carry on the ‘traditional’ Iftar dinner at the White House that Obama promoted during his years in office?
Loppan says
Roughly 10% of the population are muslims. The past 3-4 years more than 400.000 muslims has entered the country of unlimited well fare.
Jaladhi says
So, if Ramadan happens to fall around Christmas, Swedes will stop Christmas celebration or move it to a month or two later. How stupid and cowards these Swedes or Europeans can be?? Why don’t they just convert to Islam and get it over with and after that they can join Muslims in their jihad to attack USA. Morons!!
Bill W. says
If I was rhere I would be cooking pork sausge and ham every day of Ramadom served with either strong red wine or beer in my front steps of my house. I would walk my very big black dog all around the mosque, singing beer drinking songs.
TheDane says
hehe! You would probably loose your head, though. These scumbags are sick and dangerous as snakes.
Steve Brown says
I think this is minor. I wouldn’t care if a local Canada Day party celebration was held two weeks later to accommodate a local tradition. It’s the celebration NOT the day that’s important.
Now IF this starts to happen in Sweden, which is VERY probable in the future, I would agree with the sentiments in this article.
gravenimage says
“Local tradition”–this happened in Israel, which is *not* a Muslim country–not yet, anyway.
Custos Custodum says
In fairness, some 20% of the population of Israel proper are “Arabs.”
Of these, about 85% are Muslim.
In substance, you are, of course, right – the Swedish Leftists would probably not have moved their national holiday celebration to, e.g. accommodate a Jewish or even Christian holiday.
(Note that technically, Sweden still has an “established” protestant state church.)
Technically, Ramadan should not be a serious problem. Muslim Ramadan rules permit eating after sunset. Sunset is around 7:30 pm in Israel. Counting sunset by Mecca time gives a slightly earlier time to start the nightly feast.
Many Muslims happily drink alcohol and violate other rules of Islam so long as they can do so unobserved by other Muslims. (Go to the hotel bar of the nearest high-class hotel near you to gather first-hand evidence.)
Only the prohibition against eating pork is observed to some degree even in private. Many Muslims are unused to the smell of pork and do not find it appetizing.
RationalVoice says
The Swedes are the weakest willed nation on Earth and have now dropped the charge of rape against Assange who is hiding in an embassy in London.
Have they no shame or respect left for themselves ????
TheDane says
The Swedes are morons, yes, and Assange is a very nasty traitor and should be imprisoned for leaking classified info, but I have never believed the rape-charges against him. I think it was a plot. Why were these women in his hotel-room to begin with? I don’t buy it. But he should be charged and imprisoned for revealing the docs.
Brian Hoff says
There is mostly like than MI 5 and CIA hit squad waiting outside waiting for him to leave. His mistake all diplomacy is done in secret behind closed door he make alot of enemy around the world.

“Brian Hoff” is mistaking civilized people with his own savage coreligionists again…
abad says
Islam does NOT belong in Sweden nor anywhere else in Europe outside of Turkey.
Round them all up and deport them to their Islamic Paradise of Syria(TM).
John A. Marre says
You see that flag? See the cross on it? It will be gone within 5 years. So as not to offend their new masters. Same for Norway, Denmark and Finland. Can’t anger your new owners! They might just get mad and cut your head off.
TheDane says
Yes, I fear that you are right, but I believe it will be an order from the depraved institution called the EU. Those bastards suck, I can tell you!! It is Germany’s, France’s and the ‘politicians’ in Bruxelles that are driving all of Europe into havoc, and it is the same three that mass-import the moslem scum! You should see what it looks like over here. I went on a bus today, and I thought to myself that I might as well had been riding a bus in Africa or an Arab state; it was a mix, and almost no ‘whities’. It is nasty.
marina says
Appeasement at its finest.
marina says
In the year 2023 the Ramadan will coincide with Easter. By that time the West would probably move the Easter holiday.
Guest says
Sweden has no shame.
Kiki says
Their government has no shame….but I imagine a lot of Swedish civilians aren’t going to listen to them….we just never hear about that because lately, world media’s equate national pride with racism or xenophobia.
But I don’t doubt there are still people in Sweden resisting the tide of events, and they need support.
David M says
Swedes are a lost cause, I’ve been pointing this out to a Swedish woman online, her only defense is to call me a “racist.” She is obviously trained to say this,they deserve everything they are getting.
TheDane says
You are wrong! I live next to Sweden and can see the blasted country from the shore, and I can assure you that there will never be an uprising in Sweden. A few young Swedes tried to limit the number of asylum centres, but they live very dangerously and risk many, many years in prison.
Sweden is a nation of Dummies!!
just pass'n thru says

…………………
Preemptive dhimmitude…
Dawn says
Stop it don’t change for them
Kiki says
I feel bad for Swedish citizens….it’s got to be so frustrating that their government is allowing someone else to dictate when their own holidays should be!
I bet that, even if it’s not reported, a lot of Swedish people will be celebrating their holiday on the correct date…..I don’t know of specific anti-jihad/anit-sharia/pro-Sweden groups, but I imagine they’ll be pushing back on this.
I encourage everyone, no matter what country you are from, DON’T give up your culture. Celebrate what holidays you want. Don’t be afraid to say “Merry Christmas” or “Happy Easter” or whatever. The more people who do this, hopefully it’ll encourage others as well.
BLC says
I think this is proof positive that women should not be allowed to be in charge of anything. Let the men run society…and this comment is coming from a woman.

What–you mean like Obama, Trudeau, and the Pope? There are as many dhimmi males as females.
If you *really* want a world where women won’t be allowed to run anything, why don’t you just convert to Islam?

Dan King says
The swedish nationality is gone. Soon it will law there to behead all apostates, special high rise execution stages for throwing off homosexuals, non-muslim taxes, and a requirement that every islamic of middle eastern genes have 2-3 white sex slaves to play with until they are sold to the brothels. And these socialist wimp nation will gladly walk start to the death camps because they are afraid to offend their murderers.
Rob says
Yes, and I think you’d better set aside a few more hundred virgins to sacrifice to the god of political correctness. They’ll be plenty of “refugee” servants of Allah who will need to be placated.
David Barrett says
The Swedes lost it ages ago. This latest move just proves it . Wonder how many Muslims will celebrate their moved National Day? Lucky if a handful . Stupidity is now a simile for Swede [ sorry for insulting the vegetable ]
berserker says
Please remove the cross from your flag Sweden. Your new pets might find it offensive.
Jeanette says
The elites probably already have artists working on a new flag. With a sword on it, undoubtedly.
praneeth says
Never elect Left Communist anti national governments that don’t have nationalism at heart and also beware of media funded by radical sources, these entities are the core reason why Islamic terrorism is spreading.
