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

Sweden: 95% think Islam is incompatible with human rights

Jun 30, 2019 8:12 am By Robert Spencer

Instead of the honest and realistic public discussion about the compatibility of Sharia with Western secular norms that Sweden and all Western countries need to have, this will likely lead to a great deal of public handwringing about “Islamophobia,” and new initiatives against the freedom of speech and the resistance to Islamization.

“Over 90 Percent of Swedes think Islam is incompatible with human rights,” Voice of Europe, June 30, 2019:

The University of Gävle in Sweden every year releases a “Diverity barometer” where people in Sweden are asked about their attitudes towards diversity. In the latest barometer they conclude that Swedes’ attitudes towards giving immigrants their cultural rights have become more negative, at the same time more people have positive experiences of having an immigrant colleague at work.

In the question about which religions have negative values that clash with for instance human rights, 95% think Islam, 35% think Judaism, 31% think Hinduism, 26% think Buddhism and 26% think Christianity. Islam once again stands out in the yearly survey.

Moreover, 66 percent of the people in the survey also agree on the statement that Muslim women in Sweden are more opressed [sic] than other women in Sweden, 26 percent don’t know and 8 percent says no.

87 percent thinks that people with foreign background have a duty to adapt to Swedish culture, 7 percent don’t know and 6 percent says no.

Among the people who participated in the survey, 88 percent are born in Sweden, 8 percent in a nation in Europe, and 5 percent in a nation outside Europe….

    Islam and Sharia will ALWAYS be in conflict with the Bill of Human Rights as practically all in the quran is by “Devine Order”….

      As Fouad Belkacem of Sharia4Belgium explained, Islam is Sharia, and Sharia is Islam.
      The 95% of Swedes are in accord with the European Court, who said in 2003 (Welfare Party case):

      “Sharia is incompatible with the fundamental principles of democracy”

    It would be interesting to have breakdown by religion. A lot of muslims fear their more coercive fellow muslims (it would be reasonable to call them muslim Islamophobes) because they know them well. To be a moderate muslim is difficult because if you talk to an infidel about your ‘moderation’ the infidel will be at least polite but the same words said to a radical muslim may get your cursed or worse.

      Would these moslems then be considered Saracenphobic? Perhaps.

    This poll suggests that only 5% of Swedes are mentally ill, but all of those who know that Islam is incompatible with western civilization but are afraid to advocate banning further Muslim immigration aren’t rational.

      Lol!!! Unfortunately, often that tiny minority of mentally ill people succeeds in ramming their agenda down the throats of the majority by playing on guilt and through bullying.

        Oh my. True. The evil ideology of Mohammedanism using civilization jihad will win in the end as long as th EU has a strangle hold of said governments.

    • Jayell says

      Jun 30, 2019 at 9:30 am

      So they’re asking the person in the Swedish street for their opinions, which means that this 5% might not have been ‘Swedes’ as we prefer to know them?

      • Giacomo Latta says

        Jul 1, 2019 at 10:36 am

        The survey specified that 5% of respondents were born outside Sweden. It also specified that 5% do not consider that the practice of Islam clashes with human rights. Hmm. Double hmm. What a coincidence! 100% of Swedes consider Islam to be incompatible with human rights and yet they do nothing such as vet immigrants for compatibility with Swedish culture? What is with this country?

          Spot On! The truth of this doesn’t matter, the brain trust in Brussels has a plan to follow.
          Ditch the (EU) bitch! England’s Brexit can’t happen soon enough. Others (Italy, Poland, Czech Republic, and maybe sensible Sweden & Denmark) will remember their own citizens and follow England’s lead.

    The problems caused by Islam ain’t going away. The “Manana” approach will not help.

    95% of Swedes are thinking without blinders on.

    Too bad the remaining 5% seem to be the Swedes who make policy.

    • Spiro says

      Jun 30, 2019 at 9:44 am

      Soviet Union was controlled by only 10% so sure the 5% could set policy if the majority allow it

    • Rufolino says

      Jul 1, 2019 at 3:42 am

      Yes mccode, this continually strikes me as incredible:

      W European governments are foisting policies on their peoples which the People DO NOT WANT. Most Europeans DO NOT WANT mass immigration.

    Jun 30, 2019 at 9:31 am

    What is taking place there is just a hint of what the ruling 5% would do to the remaining 95% if they were to succeed.

    A shame that the 5% are in charge…

    I work with some muslims and a while back we were having a discussion about Jesus and how he was a respectful “profit” and the statement came up that we all worship the same God. They asked me if I agreed. I said, ” Jesus said of himself that He is the Way, the Truth and the Life and no one comes to the Father accept through Him. I asked if they believed that. After an awkward pause, they said no… I said there’s your answer. Religious discussion rarely comes up anymore.

    If you have trouble seeing the wickedness of an all encompassing way of life that promotes the oppression of everyone around you that doesn’t agree with you, even going to the extreme measure of killing to get your point across, you have a serious problem and the world has a problem because it’s afraid to point out the obvious. It reminds me of the story, The Emperor’s New Clothes”.

      Jun 30, 2019 at 10:53 am

      Actually muslims do NOT worship the same God as Christians.
      {although “pope” francis would have you believe otherwise}

      The koran CURSES christians for believing in Jesus Christ k9:30{is that even logical or reasonable?No!}
      k4:157 the koran denies Jesus was even crucified{thus negating Christianity}
      k4:171 Al Lah tells muslims NOT TO BELIEVE in God’s Holy Spirit of Wisdom{it isn’t just Jesus Christ that is denied because when allah says “cease”say not “three” that includes God’s Holy Spirit:one of the 3.Of course muslims think the Trinity is polytheistic }
      “It is better for you” says al lah:so it is better for muslims they don’t believe in Jesus.. or God’s Wisdom!
      In k10:92 al lah tells muslims to consult the “scripture that was before you” the Bible.But if they did that they would see how wrong the koran is{and that explains WHY the Bible is banned in many islamic countries}

      In I Kings 18 v 21
      Elijah gives the choice
      “If the Lord is God,follow Him.
      But if baal be your god,follow him”
      PATHA Jews and christians actually follow this path{the LAW is the same=the 2 chief+ten Exodus 20 commands}
      PATH B muslims think they are on PATH A but in fact are on PATH B following LAH the “BEST OF DECEIVERS” k3:54 and his “prophet” muhammed{who admits to being false!..al tabari 6;111}; a god who admits to being a champion deceiver and a “prophet” who admits to being a fake:The way of baal.

      The Lord God=the God of Israel,Moses,the commandments,Torah+Gospel etc
      baal=all that is in revolt against God and that teaches disobedience to His Commandments.

      Al Lah is the pagan Arab god{LAH} who evolved out of the pagan Arab god of the kaaba,hu BAAL:these are pagan gods.
      Lah with his 3 daughters: Al lat,al ‘uzza,manat

      If Al Lah was the SAME as the Judeo-Christian God then

      1.the LAW in the koran would be the SAME
      {I.e the 2 chief+ten Exodus 20 laws}
      It isn’t!
      Just look at what the koran teaches:ok with murdering infidels k2:191,sexual slavery of women k4:24{even if they are married which is STILL ADULTERY}bearing false witness to promote islam etc.
      The 2 chief laws are missing in islam,the 2nd one contradicted and denied in k5:51:so there is no concept of “love thy neighbor” in islam,no Golden Rule.

      2 LOVE (revealed via the 2 chief commandments}plus the Gospel would be present but instead islam has a Doctrine of HATE{al walaa wal baraa}

      Also,the koranic separation of muslims versus infidels is totally at odds with the 2nd chief law

      3 The essential role of the Jews would be understood instead of being denied.
      {the koran even denies Moses and Abraham were Jewish:ludicrous!}
      It is as if the author of the koran wanted to replace the Jews with an Arab Supremacy.

      It is NOT as if al lah is simply an Arab reinterpretation of the SAME GOD as the Biblical version.

      Al lah is a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT god
      Al lah is NOT the Judeo-Christian Biblical God.

      Al Lah is to the Judeo-Christian God what baal is to the God of Israel.

      Consider too that allah’s greatest enemy is a man called Malik Al Amlak{sahih muslim vol 5 hadith 5611}
      The “King of kings”:Revs 19:16.
      And this Al Lah wants to take over the world through war,violence and deceit,killing christians:that makes islam the antichrist religion.{which if you know Biblical prophecy has only a limited future}

      Think of the upside. While it is true that Islam is hell on earth, if you are a male who gets killed while engaged in Jihad you go straight to a carnal paradise where you have a permanent erection and access to 72 virgins.

      • FYI says

        Jun 30, 2019 at 11:33 am

        But the jihadist islamic assumption seems to be that al lah will be able to resurrect the body and the male part would be in the right place.

        But what if allah gets it wrong?
        After all allah has one leg and TWO RIGHT HANDS{See Christian Prince on You Tube}
        i meann if allah doesn’t understand Anatomy{as he misunderstands Astronomy and Theology}…

        Besides it may be merely RAISINS the lusty Abdools get{it depends on the translation}

        72 juicy,full breasted,sultry,mouth-wateringly delicious RAISINS…

    • don vito says

      Jun 30, 2019 at 12:55 pm

      my curan, states the that allah is God’s proper name. This is of course totally false

    By various definition of Islamophobia, 90% of Swedes are Islamophobic, since they dislike Islam’s totalitarianism. This shows that the Leftarded Swedish bureaucrats are failing to brainwash Swedes.

    The bureaucrats have tried to convince the Swedes that they do not actually see what they in fact do see… namely, that Islam is incompatible with human rights.

    Swedish Leftards are complete failures.

    • Terry Gain says

      Jun 30, 2019 at 11:21 am

      It is most unfortunate that there are no men in Sweden.

    Their opinion doesn’t matter. The people they elect to government office are making decisions that will hurt Sweden badly.

  11. Tom says

    Jun 30, 2019 at 6:06 pm

    Sweden is a country that is confused and politically left wing. Because of that they keep voting in politicians and governments that are not aligned with their views.

    Yet the Swedes don’t complain and just accept whatever their government tells them.

    Sweden: 95% think Islam is incompatible with human rights
    ………………..

    *Good*. Now the Swedes need to act.

  13. James Lincoln says

    Jun 30, 2019 at 8:53 pm

    I think that it’s game over for Sweden.

    The demographics…

    According to Pew Research, in 2050 – with just a medium migration scenario – Sweden will have a 20.5% Muslim population. With a high migration scenario, that number rises to 30.6%.

    So, in 30 years – without fierce pushback – Sweden will become a Islamic Republic – with sharia law throughout.

    All that will be left of the “old Sweden” will be newsreels from the 1950s and 1960s.

    A horrific outcome that could have been prevented…

    I think that the Swedish elites would rather lose their country to Islam that be called “racist Islamophobes.”

    Could I possibly be wrong ?

    “Human rights”….the “rights of a human.” We have these “rights” because we were created by God to have the freedom to speak and to make personal decisions as free moral agents, needing to acknowledge each choice has consequences, either good or bad.

    A very important “human right” is the freedom to spake one’s mind, to ask questions, to disagree. islam was designed by satan to deny that “right.”

    The “human right” to make personal choices is also paramount. islam was designed by satan to deny that “right” and force every human to worship that demon.

  15. patriotliz says

    Jul 1, 2019 at 11:20 am

    Too little too late for Sweden and the rest of Western countries who may come to revelation that Islam is incompatible with human rights. They made their bed and now they are forcing ALL of us to lie in it and to keep our mouths shut about allowing Muslims to populate our countries and stupidly elect Muslims to political office.

    The rise and fall of Western Civilization:
    Paganism->Christianity->Basic Human Rights->Anti-Christian Secularism->Multicultural Tolerance of Islam->No Basic Human Rights.
