Sweden: Muslim migrant-linked gang violence increases despite coronavirus

May 2, 2020 3:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

“While some crime has gone down significantly since the start of the coronavirus outbreak in Sweden, gang shootings have actually increased.”

This should come as no surprise. Bombings by Muslim migrants have long turned many areas of Sweden into a war zone. Sweden saw some 230 bombings in 2019 alone. The majority of shooting suspects were from Africa and the Middle East, and some Swedish politicians have also blamed the large flows of immigrants who arrived in Sweden during the 2015 migration crisis.

However, whistle-blowers  (among them a police officer) were “met with heavy criticism for suggesting that migrants and those from migrant-backgrounds were behind the vast majority of serious crime in the country.” In 2017, a “police officer who broke ranks to reveal that migrants are to blame for the vast majority of serious crime in Sweden” was put “under investigation for incitement to racial hatred.”

Silence has become the norm in Sweden when it comes to Muslim gang violence — which includes not just bombings, but also rapes. Less than two years ago, the Daily Mail reported that 8 out of 10 “stranger” rapes in Sweden were carried out by migrants, prompting Tomas Tobé, shadow Minister for Justice, to warn: “We must also dare to acknowledge that there are cultural and normative problems, such as with some young guys from Afghanistan, with whom we need to deal with.”

Unfortunately, such discussions have been virtually silenced. Few dare to discuss the lack of assimilation by Muslims who exalt jihad, see infidel women as sex slaves, and infidels as inferiors. This silence enables globalists to permit more unvetted migrants to flow in with no accountability and no consideration for the security of Swedish citizens.

“Shootings in Sweden Increasing Despite Coronavirus, Police Operations,” by Chris Tomlinson, Breitbart, April 29, 2020:

While some crime has gone down significantly since the start of the coronavirus outbreak in Sweden, gang shootings have actually increased since last year.

Between January 1st and April 15th of 2020, Sweden has seen 86 shootings in total, an increase from the same period in 2019. While the number of deaths as a result of shootings has decreased to 15, the number of injured has risen to 32.

The rise in the number of shootings comes despite the implementation of Operation Rimfrost, a police operation designed to target gang crime and to confiscate weapons and explosives used in Sweden’s many bombing attacks over the last year.

Police have managed to seize 545 weapons and around 100 kilos of explosives since the start of Operation Rimfrost, and 200 individuals have been arrested, broadcaster SVT reports.

Stefan Hector, National Commanding Officer for Operation Rimfrost, claimed it has been successful. He said: “I can say with certainty that we have prevented serious violent crimes, so I say that we have reduced the deadly violence.”

At least 100 officers were involved in an anti-gang operation in the Araby/Dalbo district of Växjö, making several arrests and claiming a large number of drugs were also seized.

On this past New Year’s Eve, a mob of youths armed with Molotov cocktails attacked police officers in Växjö.

The Swedish organised crime scene has also been mostly unaffected by the Wuhan coronavirus outbreak, unlike other countries like France where gangs are struggling with a lack of supply of illegal drugs…..

        Suicide has been known to be rampant in an earlier version of Sweden when it was socialized to the hilt and thus, seemingly, not a place for depression or other negative thoughts. A new form of suicide has replaced the traditional but it continues all the same.

          Soldiers only, no civilians counted. Sep 26, 2019 · In August, the Pentagon released a more limited report that listed the total number of suicides for 2018. The 325 suicide deaths recorded for the year represented an increase of 40 compared with 2017.

    Remember that Sweden is a small country. If the number was in the USA, it might not sound so large. I am sorry I can´t refere to the source, but I think it was during 2019 or even a limeted time, we had more bombings per capita than Afganistan! A woman carriying a baby in her arms, were shot to death on the middle of the day in bright light. Sweden used to be a country where murder was something that happened vary rarely. It was big head lines and when it happened the swedish people were shocked. Now it happens almost every week. Shooting and bombings have become the “normal” in Sweden. And as in most countrys, mentioning that migrants and even worse – muslims were/are behind these horrific actions, you are a racist and who has not heard islamophob! If that is bad to mention that a certain group is behind the crimes in most western countrys, Sweden is by far nr 1! If you have to pick one country where you “can´t” talk about that, Sweden is the worst of the worst.

    As a result of all this, that many people after all, start to add 1+1, the political party – “The swedish democrates” have grown to pend being the largest politacal party. But now during Corona, the goverment party is growing again. But that is only in my opinion be cause we don´t hear anything elsethe but about Corona on the news and our Minister takes the role of leading the country safe and sound. But when this blows over, I mean the virus, the debate will hopefully come on with a strong force and all this that the article describes, the facts that are told, will shift the power. I know The Swedish Democrates, they have a stragegi for sure to force these facts up on the agenda again.

      Yes–Sweden used to be one of the most civilized nations on the face of the earth, with a *very* low crime rate. Now with the huge influx of ravening Muslims this is anything but the case. A tragedy.

      Yes, Sweden is a small country and if you compare it to the USA… the 2019, 256 bombings, compared to the USA, would make 8.500 bombing attacks. The 2019 sex crimes of 45.000 would make…
      If You are a victim, the officials press you into silence… ‘shut you up, NOBODY wants to hear your story!’ Girls, boys, women,… going to the police to report, get even harassed and treated so badly, that they feel sorry for the attacker and blame themselves for being attacked. It is sickening… but yes be thankful for the enriching.

      I’m curious, when was Sweden’s last war? To me Swedes look like the people who grew up in a bubble, never having experienced a single difficulty in their lives and therefore believe that evil doesn’t exist anywhere in the world. By that logic, no matter what they do (like inviting a bunch of strangers in their home, for example), they think nothing bad will happen to them. And when something bad (inevitably) happens, they refuse to believe it’s bad and choose to ignore objective reality in order to maintain their delusion.

      Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying Sweden should engage in wars or get a war declared on them; far from it. War is never a good thing. But as the saying goes “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger”, as well as “broken bones build character”; it would appear that it’s been a very long time since Swedes were in any sort of threatening situation.

        LB,

        Yes, the current crop of Swedes grew up in a bubble – and are very soft. Think “pathological altruism.”

        If one compares them with the very hearty Poles, the difference is striking. The Swedes have welcomed in muslim invaders, the Poles have keep them out.

        1945 was the beginning of the end for Europe and all European natives. Stop fighting it and it will be less painful and quick. If you want to blame some one blame your parents, grandparents, great grandparents. Blame the leaders of the past we call our heroes. Whitey be gone and take your culture, or what is left of it, with you.

      Sweden is being touted by the anti lock down gang as being a shining example of freedom!. However if we compare Sweden to Finland which has a lock down of sorts. No police to be seen as is usual.
      With Finland having half the population of Sweden and a similar culture, logic would suggest that Sweden would have about the same or even better figures than Finland. The numbers show quite a large difference. Sweden currently has 22,082 cases, nearly four and a half times the Finnish cases and 2669 deaths which is more than twelve times the Finnish number
      Sweden also has a 24%+ migrant pop. which is notoriously uncooperative with authority so I foresee much worse numbers when the final tally is made

    Sweden is run by a permanent ruling class of traitors. They are the officers on the bridge of the Titanic heading full-speed towards the iceberg.

    All the passengers can see what’s going to happen. They’re telling the captain and first mate to change course. And they are resolutely not changing course.

    And the Swedish ruling elites are arresting the passengers. So … what else can you call them, but ‘the traitor class’? They know what’s going on. They know how people feel about it. They are cracking down on their own population.

    The Muslim jihadists are delighted by the fact that they are shielded from criticism and no one may oppose them.

      But there is no way the Swedes can be saved. Their country has gone too far into the Islamic trap. There are whole areas of urban Sweden which are now moslem no-go areas. Still, too many Swedes do not realise how Islamic their country has become. The left-wing Swedes are aiding and abetting the invasion of their own country. What will happen when the Islamic/Moslem party gets enough votes to become a political force? Good-bye democracy. Will the Swedes even notice?

        Muslims make up about 1.6% of the population in Sweden. Why are you preaching surrender?

          Gravenimage,

          According to Pew Research Center the Muslim population in Sweden as of 2016 was 8.1%. Likely higher in 2020. Also, it’s projected growth rate under various scenarios is very disturbing.

          The native Swedes need to take back their country – NOW.

          James, even if the Muslim population *is* 8%, I don’t think that Swedes should cede their nation to these invaders.

    Sweden: Muslim migrant-linked gang violence increases despite coronavirus
    ……………………

    More deadly than the Coronavirus…

  7. Walter Sieruk says

    May 3, 2020 at 12:26 am

    That migrant Muslim gang violence is on the rise despite the danger of the coronavirus further shows the simple minded and unintelligent mindset of those Muslim thugs.

    Maybe those Muslim hooligans believe that their god,Allah, will keep them safe from the virus so that they may engage in more Islamic violence against people who are not Muslims ?

    Nevertheless evil gangs of malice-fulled lawless ruffians are nothing original. Such wicked malicious violent gangs have a history that goes back to even ancient times.

    For example, in the Bible such vicious gangs are described in Proverbs 4 :16,17. Which reads “For they do not sleep unless they have done evil ; and their sleep is taken away unless they make someone fall.
    For they eat the bread of wickedness, and drink the wine of violence. [N.K.J.V.]

    It’s also true that the police as well as other enforcement authorities do have every right to come down hard on those Islamic thugs, this statement,is upheld in the Bible, as seen in Romans 13:1-4. For strong brute force is the only language that those heinous villains will understand.

    It maybe a “religion” of peace but islamic politics is an ideology of violence and you can’t separate one from the other. When you allow islam into your country you are allowing the enemy of freedom to migrate their army of hate into your society. Make no mistake muslim/islamic migrants will rape, kill and pillage their way across your country the same as an out of control invading army.
