Sweden: New books for preschoolers promote polygamy and the niqab

Sep 30, 2017 12:02 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

Two new children’s books are released in Sweden….They are called “Grandfather has four wives” and “Grandmother is no ghost.”

Just when you thought it could not get any worse in Sweden. The new children’s books are being sold at the Gothenburg Book Fair, promoting polygamy and the wearing of the niqab to children as young as three. In other words, the sharia subjugation of women is being inculcated into preschoolers, and is coming to be tolerated in Sweden as a norm.

Last year, the “Gothenburg suburb accepted more unaccompanied refugee children than anywhere else in the country.” These child refugees need to assimilate, but instead these new books are teaching that it is perfectly fine to have four wives and for women to cover up like a “ghost.”

Books that deny the equality of women have no place in Sweden or any democracy, but Sweden continues its downward spiral. It was also announced last year that Sweden was “hit by huge number of child brides as young as 11.”

“Three-year-olds learn about Islam: ‘Grandfather has four wives,'” FriaTider, September 29 2017:

Now two new children’s books are released in Sweden, which include, among other things, multiply and muslim Somali culture. They are called “Grandfather has four wives” and “Grandmother is no ghost” and is aimed at very young children.

According to Social News , Somali Nordic Culture is selling the new children’s books at the Book Fair in Gothenburg.

The books are written by author Oscar Trimbel.

“Grandmother is no ghost” is about Omar who greets his grandmother who comes from Somalia.

Grandmother wears full dress but is no ghost.

“When it’s Halloween, Omar dresses like ghosts like any other child. He wants grandma to come along because it’s gonna be nasty”, the book is featured on Adlibris website.

The second children’s book, “Grandfather has four wives”, deals with polygamy. The front is adorned by a Muslim bearded man with his four wives in the background…….

The author Oscar Trimbel worked in the 1980s for Sida’s behalf in Somalia. He has, in the past, given out Somali folk songs and self-painted watercolors from his stay in the country.

The two books were published on the book publisher’s Book Machine in August this year. Appropriate reading age is reported to be 3-6 years.

    Polygamy is not sanctioned by God. For example God gave Adam one wife. Furthermore, in the New Testament Jesus taught “For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife…” Jesus said “wife.” Not “wives” Mathew 19:5. [K.J.V.] Likewise, in First Timothy 3:2. In instructs “A bishop the must be blameless, the husband on one wife.” Here again it’s “one wife” Nevertheless, there are some people who will act as apologists for polygamy by say the king David of Israel and then later his son ,who became King Solomon of Israel did practice polygamy. Such people aren’t taking into account both the time and place. For the only reason that God did tolerate this tradition was not because it was right or that He approved of it. It was because this practice of having many wives was such an entrenched custom in the ancient Middle East that God allowed it for the above mentioned Kings of Israel. This does not mean that this custom, of polygamy, was to keep on going in other times and places.

      It must be a powerful feeling to “Know” what “God” sanctions. Most of the biblical patriarchs and not just kings had harems of wives. In fact, many present-day Mormons have harems, even though the Mormon hierarchy forbids it. In fact, when that happened, many Mormons fled to Mexico with their wives and their descendants are happily living there practicing polygamy and coming back and forth across the US border with US citizenship. In fact, Mitt Romney’s father was born in Mexico because of this very hiatus. I don’t know how many “Grandmothers” Mitt Romney has..

      I would not wish to live in a country ruled by any religion, and that includes Christianity.

    Show me a society where polygamy (not to be mixed up with polyandry which is very rare and not germane here) exists and I will show you a society where women cannot possibly be equal to men under the law, socially, economically et al. Women should love monogamy because it is an imperative for equality between the sexes. It is impossible to have a society that permits polygamy and at the same time has gender equality.

    • Westman says

      Sep 30, 2017 at 12:47 pm

      It is so self-obvious that Muslimas who enter polygamy have been indoctrinated to make it acceptable and given no choice.

      The Mormons dumped polygamy under government pressure in the late 1800’s and the breakoff groups, that kept it, have “runaways” that write books about the personally experienced evils of polygamy. There is no upside to polygamy for women.

    • Peter Clemerson says

      A small point perhaps but lets get our vocabulary right. Polygamy means multiple unions or marriages and applies to men with multiple wives/concubines, common in many cultures, and women with multiple husbands, rare as Wellington says. What this book is normalising is polgygny, (“from poly- + -gyny, from Greek gunē a woman” – quote from dictionary.com).

      • Wellington says

        Sep 30, 2017 at 5:27 pm

        Noted. And I thank you for such specificity.

        It is only that when the word “polygamy” comes up, by custom most everywhere, it means a husband married to several women as opposed to polyandry. And, as you indicated, polygyny is the technically correct term for a man married to two or more women. The “gyny part” being the root of the word gynecology (woman), though I have long found it instructive and interesting, even amusing, that the term,”anthropology” (“anthropos” meaning man) has had nothing to do with a specialized field in medicine while the term “gynecology” has. Yet, if perfect logic were applied, it would.

        All this is an abstruse endeavor but I rather like abstruse endeavors from time to time, preferably while talking with friends while drinking a fine beer. But thank you again, Peter Clemerson.

        Oh, what an opportunity.

        A great point really : the Swedes promote polygamy so everyone must now in chip in on the media and promote Polyandry. Where are the feminists ? What happened to them? Scandinavia was supposed to be liberal enough to allow for almost anything – so why are females and their rights being discriminated against. This is absolute proof that Sweden has become Ultra Conservative in the Wahabi tradition.

        Call them out for Hypocrisy now – demand the right to have up to 5 husbands. With some men having 4+ wives there will be an excess of men and they should be easy picking. Unless they’re all she-men – then I’d give up too.

      Oct 1, 2017 at 12:03 pm

      Wellington, you are correct. If one studies all of the “Religions” which practice polygamy, you will find this to be true. Woman are devalued. Perhaps it is because if a man doesn’t like one, he is free to acquire many others, perhaps one he does like. Islam is actually founded on aberrant sexual practices. Mohammed was psychotic.

    Sweden is lost to the barbarian religion and ideology and Swedes of all backgrounds ought to be hanging their heads in shame that they allowed the stealth jihad to succeed.

    Any Swedes with an opinion other than the leftist one spouted by their government have been shamed and beaten down as Islamophobic.

    This is the result of allowing the word islamophobe to be used as a weapon against any criticism of Islam.

    Those who live in countries, like Canada, that is at a turning point MUST speak up and say NO to government sponsored censorship of free spech in the name of diversity.

    Speak now or forever lose your rights.

    Sweden: New books for preschoolers promote polygamy and the niqab
    …………………….

    *Just sickening*.

    More:

    The books are written by author Oscar Trimbel.
    …………………….

    Please note that Oscar Trimbel is *not* Muslim. He is a children’s book author who has also written on other subjects–he did a book, “Mother Theresa, a Saint of Calcutta” (Moder Teresa : ett helgon i Calcutta).

    That means that this is a dhimmi Infidel who is working to normalize the horrible dysfunction of Islam for children. *Ugh*.

    …and so, meanwhile, with the islamization of Sweden going into overdrive, a bunch of Swedish neo-nazis today thought it was about time they march on a synagogue and threaten Jews, in the city of Gotheborg.

    Boy. These neo-nazi types really are a bunch of useless idiots, aren’t they. Or – as one might also argue: very USEFUL idiots for those who desire more islamization and the demonizing of its critics…

      To me – reading the news from Sweden for last couple of years – the Swedish society is becoming an asylum run by its patients, or – from my European cultural perspective – an absurd drama. Beckett hand in hand with Kafka would not be able to create more absurd, sinister and depressing display of submission, better say – dhimmitude.

      The ramifications of this are far reaching, though. I cannot imagine Poland and Hungary joining this theater. Hence, borders to be reinforced in Europe again, end of Schengen imminent. Borders with strong military presence at that. Regions of Europe within (or rather outside of) these borders slipping into chronic eruptions of unrest and lawlessness. Add anything to this bleak picture of the continent … like jihadi fortresses in the Balkans.

      Generation of my children will see what we have not in our lives: civil-war-like conditions in Europe.

    I’m trying to picture a native Swedish couple with their kids, let’s say they have a boy and a girl and they’ve bought these books and are reading them to their little kids.

    They are educating their little girl to believe that she is suitable to become one, in a harem of women who was created to grow up and marry a man who she, along with the others in her harem, will spend their entire lives attempting to sexually please him, bear him however many children that their bodies can cope with and will obediently submit to him, his whims and whatever he chooses to dish out to her.

    Imagine facing your own little girl right now and telling her that this is her destiny.

    They are educating their little boy to believe that he will grow up and select a pool of women to gather around him who exist to spread their legs for him, breed children for him and submit readily to him. He will be raised thinking women exist to cook, clean the house, spread their legs and keep their mouth’s shut.

    Imagine facing your own little boy right now and telling him that his destiny is to become a sadistic despot who views women as sexual chattel and house-bound slaves who exist to pander to his whims.

    I couldn’t stomach the idea of raising children with these warped, sickening notions. Just how many Swede’s are now raising their kids to believe at least some of this stuff? Try explaining to a 10 year old why Westerners don’t believe in this – but Muslims do and then try to justify to a young, inexperienced child why they are being raised one way, while the other way is present front and centre – but that ultimately, ‘all culture’s are equal’ and that the other way still deserves to be respected.

    Its raising confused kids whose impressionable little minds are absorbing the blatant differences and inequalities, whist being forced to believe that everything is still equal and fair and respectable. That’s obscene.

    I would only buy those books and read them to a child, if I were using them to show a child just how obscenely warped Islam and Muslims are. And I can’t do that to a small child – they’re too young to grasp the differences – and its plain wrong to warp a child’s young mind; according to my Western cultural beliefs. But you can guarantee that these Muslims are raising their kids to see the differences in our respective values – and they’re being raised to despise ours and disrespect them – all the while being told to steal what they want from the West and its people, while laying in wait for the day they can rise up and take them over.

    The whole thing is sickening.

      Disagreed ! There’s nothing like starting them young because this one-way Islamic brainwashimg has been going on for too long in the Madrassas and kindergartens of the world. It is even happening to non-Muslim children in supposedly secular schools and colleges/universities.

      If you do not provide them with an early imprint on what evil looks like, they will become victims of today’s universal agenda of Islamic Indoctrination.

      • Kay says

        Oct 1, 2017 at 8:33 am

        These early images normalize things that are not normal. They normalize evil because there will be few places where adults are free to express the appropriate disgust and derision. There will be few adults who teach the appropriate emotional reaction so children will learn that these horrors are acceptable.

    In my work, I was introduced to a board book (same age group as here) about hijab. It was of course, lauding the practice and ended with the words: this is faith. I voiced a strong opinion against our program buying it. (How easy it is to inculcate the young! Schools were better when there was local community control. )

    Polygamy is OK in the islamic world but polyandry apparently isn’t.

    So a muslim man can have 4 wives but a muslim woman cannot have 4 husbands.

    Why?Maybe because{sarc on}that would be immoral for a woman to have so many husbands…

    Babies are 50% girls and 50% boys: one adult girl only for every adult boy. Bible is wise, Quran is stupid.
    Muhammad with his 13 wives and 59 sexual slaves (Hadith) impeached 71 mens to find one wife.
    You must understand:
    1 billion muslims mens must kill 3 billion non-muslims mens, and only then 1 billion muslims will have the 4 sexual slaves that Muhammad promised to every muslim man.
    Google: 669 million non-muslims massacred…

    Thank you Sweden for showing the world what happens when a civilized culture gives way to Marxism and then barbarism. You must be so proud. Rampant debasing of your culture and heritage by two sick evil forces.

    How are your stats. Wholesale rape, street violence, school violence, home invasions, arson, abuses of YOUR OWN children by the local neanderthals, widespread abuse of the welfare system, utter disrespect for authority, etc.

    In fact how long will it take for them to change your flag from a cross (just too offensive) to a crescent.

    These children:s school books along with advertising about a changing Swedish Society show that the SWEDES have given in long ago & are telling their people that their country will be an ISLAMIC one in a couple of generations,

    It is also true demographically that before the end of the Century Native Swedes will be the Minority in their own land !

    However this is no secret & yet there are actually no protests about this or the huge rise in Child & Women raping numbers rise ?

    Incredible Social Engineering actually & frightening to watch from outside the place !
