Swedish Moderate party leader Ulf Kristersson has called the situation in Sweden “extreme for a country that is not at war”. Kristersson was referring to gun violence…
Mats Löfving, head of the police’s national operational department Noa, commented on the shootings this year saying: “The development is unacceptable. In many cases, military automatic weapons are used. We see a reduction in the number of those injured in firearm violence, but the killing does not go down.”
Much of the crime in Sweden is linked to specific suburbs in large cities like Stockholm and Gothenburg that generally also have a high population of migrants….Swedish police have accounted for a total of 14 no-go areas in which they rarely venture outside of their heavily fortified police stations for fear of being attacked by locals.
Sweden welcomed in more refugees per capita than any other EU country, and its citizens have paid a price. Jihad Watch has long reported about the Muslim migrant catastrophe in Sweden, making the job of policing a living nightmare, and so dangerous that 80 percent of police want to quit their jobs. Some no go zones are like war zones. Since 2014, the “country of 10 million accepted more than 400,000 asylum-seekers and relatives of previous immigrants.” Migrants arrived primarily from Syria, Iraq, Eritrea, Afghanistan, and Somalia.
A “jihadist terror campaign also ravaged Malmo” in 2011 and by 2017, Malmo was so out of control that the Express reported: “the Sweden Democrats demanded soldiers should be sent to Malmo to reestablish law and order as violent thugs have turned the city into a ‘no-go zone’.
From all indications, the situation in Sweden is not improving and while Swedish party leader Ulf Kristersson warns that gun violence is “extreme for a country not at war”, the country is indeed at war with jihadist minded thugs. All Western nations are engaged in a war on jihad terror that is bombarding democracies from all sides; a war that was declared after 9-11 but being denied, not by jihadists but by Western Leftists.
“Swedish Party Leader: Gun Violence ‘Extreme for a Country Not at War’”, by Chris Tomlinson, Breitbart, July 3, 2019:
Swedish Moderate party leader Ulf Kristersson has slammed the surge of gun violence across the country as Prime Minister Stefan Löfven has vowed new measures to tackle gang crime.
Mr Kristersson made his comments in reaction to three shootings over the weekend in the Swedish capital of Stockholm saying the current situation in the country is “extreme for a country that is not at war”, Swedish broadcaster SVT reports.Mats Löfving, head of the police’s national operational department Noa, commented on the shootings this year saying: “The development is unacceptable. In many cases, military automatic weapons are used. We see a reduction in the number of those injured in firearm violence, but the killing does not go down.”
So far this year, the Stockholm area has seen 11 deaths as a result of shootings. Last year, Sweden saw a record number of shooting fatalities with Swedish police specialist Gunnar Appelgren making similar comments to Kristersson last December, stating that Sweden was akin to a “state at war”.
Shootings have not been limited to Stockholm either. Just before 1am Tuesday morning, police in central Växjö discovered a man who had been wounded as a result of gunfire. Officers say the man had to be rushed to a nearby hospital but so far no suspects have been arrested in the case…..

They must be the only people on the planet distracted by the women’s soccer world cup. But then, look at their politics!! But maybe we shouldn’t be surprised by them not noticing a war going on not only outside their front doors but in their front gardens – they managed to look the other way when the Nazis were causing total havoc next door.

Don Ameche says
BINGO !! You are so correct…. Sweden is at war.
Bill says
It is not” gun violence”, it is violence committed by people using guns or other tools. No gun anywhere is violent by itself. The false and deceptive language that places blame on inanimate objects is the design of evil politicians who want to confuse people about the true causes of violence.

**Immigration has been, and continues to be, good for Canada,” said Ahmed Hussen, Canada’s Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship. “We are an aging society. We have a growing economy that needs a lot of new workers.” **
With a man named after Muhammad as the Minister of Immigration, the doors are open no matter what the citizens want. And Dorota Blumczynska, executive director of the Immigrant and Refugee Community Organization of Manitoba, though an immigrant herself, is profoundly ignorant of the anti-unbeliever and built-in sedition of Islam.
O Canada!

True patriot love in all thy sons command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise,

From far and wide,

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahmed_Hussen
On October 31, 2018, Hussen announced that the Government of Canada had updated its multi-year immigration levels plan, which would see the number of new immigrants in Canada rise to 350,000 by 2021. This plan was to see immigration levels rise by 40,000 more than Canada’s target of 310,000 immigrants in 2018.[20] The planned increases were set to reflect needs in the economic class of immigration to aid with Canada’s labour shortages, as well as in humanitarian streams of immigration.[21]
In a 2018, Angus Reid Institute poll found that Hussen is one of the least popular ministers in Trudeau’s cabinet.[22][23]

What EU needs is another “Misopogon” tale to be written….
“Beard Hater” could be a light-hearted account of the modern clash with the Moslem inhabitants of the EU; of whom could be mocked for their beards not being the type of beards once worn when Gauls were Gauls and Huns were Huns, Vikings were Vikings and Russians were Rus. Europeans should give Muslims more of a show in how to wear real beards. A real demonstration of what real might looks like.
That could ignite a social civil war, akin to how metrosexual millennial EU-ros think and see themselves and conduct their cares, and thus appeal to their inner rage over how Moslem influence is messing with the authentic EU-ro look.

The craziness of the Swedish government, supported by its media elite, in allowing in 400,000 economic migrants, almost entirely Muslim, who are hostile to Sweden, have no interest in integrating with the “most vile of created beings,” despise the Infidels who have given them succour, but are determined to take advantage of every possible benefit the Swedish state can lavish upon them, is maddening., Now the Swedes are beginning to recognize the awful truth. Sweden had a good thing going for a long time. Perhaps too much, for too long. Now the Swedes are learning what they might learned earlier, with less pain, by reading the Qur’an and the most important hadith, by studying 1,400 years of Jihad, and by observing the behavior of Muslims over the past half century, in the Middle East and in Europe.
Now comes the moment to decide. Can they summon the strength to now undo what they have done, and remove from their midst those who do not, and cannot ever, wish them anything but harm?
James Lincoln says
Hugh Fitzgerald says,
Re: the Swedes
“Can they summon the strength to now undo what they have done…”
I have severe doubts – and it could be 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 definitely could have been prevented…
I think that the Swedish elites would rather lose their country to Islam that be called “racist Islamophobes.”
That leftist/Marxist/globalist mindset – with some feminist pathological altruism – thrown in for good measure, has been developed over decades. Not likely to change.
Could I possibly be wrong ?
PS: keep up your great work Mr. Fitzgerald!

James: I don’t believe the person who posts here as “Hugh Fitzgerald” without the cursor underneath the name is the same HF who regularly writes articles here at JW.
Don McKellar says
As always, you are a complete idiot, Wellington. If it were not him, the post would be removed. Or maybe you’re just here to cause “mischief”.
Wellington says
Well, Don McKellar, don’t sugarcoat things like you did. Next time just give it to me straight. I can take it. As for creating “mischief,” yes, you’ve brilliantly uncovered why I have posted here for years at JW, i.e. to create mischief. Actually, I’m an undercover Islamic jihadist posing as an opponent of Islam.
I do remember someone posting under the name, Robert Spencer, and when I assumed (incorrectly) that it was THE Robert Spencer, THE Robert Spencer replied to me and conveyed that I should have looked to see if there was a cursor under his name, which there was not. Take it from here, oh enlightened one.
James Lincoln says
Thank you for bringing that to my attention, Wellington.

Can there be two Hugh Fitzgeralds who are both erudite and perhaps a bit long-winded at times? It seems like the same fellow to me–of course, I suppose I could be wrong…
gravenimage says
Whether or not the post above is by Jihad Watch contributor Hugh Fitzgerald, this from Don McKellar is just calumny against Wellington, who is as staunch an Anti-Jihadist as anyone here.
And no–very few comments here are removed automatically, and Jihad Watch does not have the staff to comb though all comments threads,
Wellington says
I am certain, gravenimage, that when I responded sometime ago to a “Robert Spencer” here at JW, thinking him THE Robert Spencer, I received a response from THE Robert Spencer gently chastising me for not bothering to look for a cursor under the name, which would indicate that it was THE Robert Spencer—and which in that instance it was not.
I think that is what is going on here, irrespective of Don McKellar’s contention that I am a complete idiot (and, per McKellar, a complete idiot “as always”). Would very much appreciate if THE Hugh Fitzgerald would clear this up.
CRUSADER says

If there are enough Swedes who don’t convert, and convince Muslims in Sweden to give up on Islam, and if the Swedes halt migration policies, then there might be a chance at 10% MuzzieSweden demographic in the future. That’s still the same ratio of sociopaths, however, which plague many Western societies. (10% at least on highways. 1 in 10 driver, for sure!)
According to “SocioPath NextDoor”:
Could that amazing new person you or a loved one is dating actually be a sociopath? It’s not as far-fetched as you might imagine. Roughly one in 25 Americans is a sociopath, according to Harvard psychologist Dr. Martha Stout, author of “The Sociopath Next Door.” Of course, not all sociopaths are dangerous criminals. But they certainly can make life difficult, given that the defining characteristic of sociopathy is antisocial behavior.
Stout is saying that 1 in 25 people or 4% are sociopaths. Are there really that many sociopaths these days? In the older DSM-IV, the prevalence of Antisocial Personality Disorder in a community sample is about 3% for males and about 1% for females, and just because one has APD does not mean he or she is a sociopath. A sociopath is even more extreme than someone with APD. Are sociopaths growing among Americans or are we renaming many people as sociopaths? It’s a tough question to answer.

Well, some of the Swedish cookie cutter “solutions” for what ails society might get in the way of progress and innovation, and some of their socialist programs might be irritating, and the “Third Way” of fame would falter further, even though their economy has been strong due to varying taxation fixes, though the way they force labeling on citizens and genders is awkward…. Also, they are still a target for Russian menacing.

Yes–the Swedes would still have ridiculously high taxes and an absurd amount of “political correctness”–but without ravening Muslims taking advantage of this weakness, it would still make for a pretty civilized society.
CRUSADER says
I suppose a dark cloud of all that descending upon society is better than
the dark cloud becoming a ravenous cloud of crazed Muslims…
Apparently, a group of ravens is called an “unkindness” or “conspiracy,” which seems fitting, since ravens are traditionally considered creepy…

I imagine where America would be today if, instead of engaging in wars in Iran and Afghanistan, it had responded to the 9/11 Muslim attack on America by banning further Muslim immigration.

In Augusst 1914 the idiocy of a European war was clear to many, but still those armies marched off to war, unable to halt the juggernaut. it bled Europe white. Nearly 20 million dead, another 20 million wounded.
In the 1930s there were many intelligent people who warned about Hitler; he made no secret of his plans, anyone could see newsreels of the madman and see that he was indeed mad. You could read Mein Kampf; it had been in print since the early 1920. . You could learn about the Night of the Long Knives when Ernst Roehm and his Brownshirts were murdered, see newsreels of the German army in 1936 violating the Versailles Treaty as it re-entered and remilitarize the Rhineland, see the burned-out shops of Jews and destroyed synagogues (and learn, too, about the Jewish shopkeepers beaten to death) during Kristallnacht in 1938. No surprises. It was all clear for those with eyes to see. Churchill saw; he knew what was coming. He repeatedly tried, but failed, to have his warnings heeded.
In Asia there were those who knew exactly what the Japanese militarists had in mind. They saw what the Japanese occupiers had done in Manchuria, that is in the puppet state of Manchukuo. Books were written to warn the West of what Japan planned for its Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere. The only surprise is that Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor came as a surprise.
And now we have Europe, where a large part of the indigenous population cannot bear to think of what they have done to themselves, and whaat is to come, so it refuses to think at all. And those who see will also suffer from the blindness of some. Why don’t people read the Qur’an? Why don’t they study the 1,400 year history of Muslim conquest, and the subjugation of many lands and many peoples? Why don’t they try to head off disaster while there is still time?

Little by little, unconsciously, unintentionally….my whole framework loosened, and the sharp edges of my belief became blunted. The vagueness, the merely speculative character, of all this Occultism began to spread… I was soon “altering from ‘I BELIEVE’ to ‘one does feel’…”
And, oh the relief of it! From the tyrannous noon of revelation I passed into the cool evening twilight of ‘Higher Thought’ — where there was nothing to be obeyed, and nothing to be believed except what was either comforting or exciting.

“It’s the IDEOLOGY, stupid.”
The IDEOLOGY is called “AL WALAA WAL BARAA” (comradeship and cleansing).
All Muslims are required to be good ‘comrades’ with other Muslims and to hate and be hostile towards the dirty kufaar. When Swedes realize that practicing Muslims hate SWEDISH KAFIRS, then they will stop importing the so-called ‘gun problem’.
It’s an IDEOLOGICAL PROBLEM, you idiots.

Indiana Tom says
Learn from Sweden.
CRUSADER says
Guns are capable of harmful and fatal consequences; and gun laws are quite stringent in Sweden.
To be a gun owner requires a license, and this is tightly controlled by regulations. A potential gun owner needs to meet requirements to be granted a license. Various forms of self-defence weapons or deadly weapons such as pepper-spray to full-automatic machine guns are technically legal. However, most licenses for gun ownership are for hunters, as wild life hunting is highly in vogue in this country.
The weapons law is not applied to air guns and similar weapons with a projectile energy less than 10 joules at the end of barrel. Such minor weapons do not require a license and are available for purchase by anyone over the age of 18 years. This is also relevant for breech-loading rifles manufactured prior to 1890.
To apply and obtain a gun license, the perspective gun owner approaches the local police. The applicant must be in good standing and at least 18 years old. There may be exceptions for a younger aged applicant to be granted a license. The applicant must be a member of an approved shooting club for at least six months or have passed a hunting examination (jägarexamen). Being a member of a shooting club is the most utilized route to legally acquire pistols for sport shooting, while passing a hunting exam, is for hunting rifles. Note: a gun registered for sport shooting may not be used in hunting. However a licensed gun user is allowed to hunt without passing a hunting exam, if you are chaperoned (accompanied and guided) by someone that has passed that exam.
From the age of 15 years, one may take the hunting exam. It is lawful for a person with a gun license to lend his or her gun to a person at least 15 years and older, under supervision. A Swede may be given a license to own up to six hunting rifles, ten pistols or a combination of eight rifles and pistols. There would need to be a valid reason for ownership of more firearms. It is stipulated that all firearms are to be stored/kept in an approved gun safe.
It is illegal for a civilian in Sweden to carry a firearm, unless for a specific, legal purpose;such as hunting or attending shooting ranges. To transport firearms, there are rules to adhere to;the general regulations are that the gun must be unloaded, hidden and transported in a safe and secure way under supervision.
Besides hunting, another common reason for gun ownership in Sweden is collecting. The gun collector must have a clearly stated interest and may begin another collection if he or she has collected for several years and has shown a great interest in gun history. A collection of guns that can be of criminal interest, such as pistols or submachine guns, will lead the police to insist on a very high safety level on the storing of such guns (including security windows and vault doors). Gun ownership may also be granted for reasons of sentimental value or as decoration.
It is considered a privilege, rather than a right, to own a firearm in Sweden.
