Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Swedish Security Service: Number of jihadis has gone from hundreds to thousands in just a few years

Feb 22, 2018 11:27 am By Robert Spencer

“The number of people in so-called extremist environments is growing, and the figure has gone from hundreds to thousands in just a few years, according to Säpo.”

Why is that? Because of the immigration policies that the Swedish government is pursuing indefatigably, even at the expense of the safety and security of Swedish citizens. Will those policies be scrapped, or even reexamined? Of course not. That would be “Islamophobic.”

“Säpo: The threat to Sweden greater than in many years,” translated from “Säpo: Hotet mot Sverige större än på många år,” Fria Tider, February 22, 2018 (thanks to Denny):

Domestic. The threat to Sweden is greater today than it has been for many years. So writes former Säpo chief Anders Thornberg in the preamble to the Security Policy Yearbook. The biggest threat comes from violent Islamists.

According to the Swedish Security Service, the security situation in Sweden has deteriorated and the threats to the country are now greater than they have been for many years.

This is stated in the Security Policy Yearbook, released today.

“Today we have a new normality to relate to, which we share with the rest of Europe. It is a development that is worrying,” says deputy security police Charlotte von Essen in a press release.

The number of people in so-called extremist environments is growing, and the figure has gone from hundreds to thousands in just a few years, according to Säpo.

Every other day, authorities now handle tasks in which a person is identified who expressed “attack threats” against Sweden.

“At present, the threat is greatest from the violent Islamist extremists,” Säpo writes, pointing out that there are about 2,000 people who adhere to violent Islamist extremism.

“The analysis shows that the most likely attack threat in Sweden in 2018 is still from people with a violent Islamic ideology who act alone,” he continues….

    Säpo chief Anders Thornberg is bravely telling THE FACTS OF LIFE to Swedes and also to the RULING PARTY, the IDIOTIC, SELF-DESTRUCTIVE Swedish Social Democratic Party.

    Will Thomberg be PUNISHED for doing so? Or will Anders Thomberg become the ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE as in the famous play by Henrik Ibsen ???

    The Swedes wanted to show the world who BROADMINDED and LIBERAL they are by inviting the MOST ILLIBERAL and LEAST BROADMINDED culture ISLAM into their living rooms and bedrooms!

    HOW MANY NO-GO ZONES ARE THERE NOW IN SWEDEN, class? There 23 NO-GO zones that the police admit to. How many more will there be in 5 or 10 years? When will the civil war start?

      Civil war implies that there are two sides willing to fight to defend their interests.
      Abject surrender of a population to invasion is not civil war.
      There will be no civil war in Sweden, because there are no Swedes willing to fight to defend their own interests. That would be ‘racism’.
      They will simply surrender en mass at the next election by electing invaders to govern them, or emigrate if they can.

    SWEDISH PSYCHOTICS WOULD RATHER BE DEAD than called a ‘racist’… SUBMISSION WILL NOT PROTECT SWEDEN FROM THE JIHAD …

    There is no Swedish ‘security service’.
    There is the Swedish ‘Invasion Accommodation and Escort Service’.
    Same as all the other countries of Western Europe.
    This guy is off script, and should be looking for another job.

      All the places which I planned to visit on my Sweden travel itinerary.

      Now, I’ll have to scratch the trip.

      Maybe go visit Nigeria, instead?

    “The number of people in so-called extremist environments is growing…”.
    So what? What’s the point in even tracking it if absolutely piss-all is going to be done about it? And everyone knows nothing at all is going to be done about it.

    Yeah, they say these things every year now. And every year nothing improves.

    I wonder what the SSS does the rest of the year – except for stating the obvious. Checking white people for being islamophobic, right wing extremists etc.?

    Here is an ABBA-chant, updated by Swedish government for contemporary times:

    Gimme gimme gimme a mosque after midnight
    Won’t somebody help me chase the kaffirs away
    Gimme gimme gimme a mosque after midnight
    chasing infidels in the darkness to the break of Allah’s day
