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

98,000 mostly Muslim migrants given permanent Swedish residency

Jun 13, 2020 9:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

“A total of 98,867 asylum seekers have been given permanent residency in Sweden since the height of the migrant crisis, out of 163,456 who applied for asylum that year.”

The majority of refugees in Sweden are from Muslim countries, predominantly Syria, Iran and Iraq. While Sweden continues to welcome uncontrolled masses of Muslim migrants, it is descending into chaos: no-go zones, gangs, bombings, and the threat of jihad, reflecting the same problems of the countries the refugees are coming from. This is all thanks to the Leftist authorities who have implemented mass-migration policies.

Leaked documents from Sweden’s Justice Ministry also “revealed that the costs of mass migration are far higher than figures currently expressed by the government.”

“98,000 Migrant-Crisis Asylum Seeker Arrivals Given Permanent Swedish Residency,” by Chris Tomlinson, Breitbart, June 10, 2020:

A total of 98,867 asylum seekers have been given permanent residency in Sweden since the height of the migrant crisis, out of 163,456 who applied for asylum that year.

During the height of the European migrant crisis in 2015, Sweden took in over 163,000 asylum seekers, the highest per capita in Europe and one of the highest total numbers, despite the country’s comparatively small population. Some 80,000 entered the country in two months before the government enacted border controls in November of that year.

According to a report from Swedish broadcaster Sveriges Radio, 60 per cent of the asylum seekers who arrived that year were granted permanent residency in Sweden, while the rest were granted temporary residency.

Mikael Ribbenvik, Director General of the Migration Board, spoke to the broadcaster, saying: “We had desk lawyers standing in ports and at stations in yellow vests. We arranged 64,000 accommodation places during these months. We got everyone in the system, which was important.”

“Since many people were granted residence permits during those years, this results in increases in applications for family reunification. And then, about five years later, there will also be an increase in the number of citizenship cases,” he added.

Family unification has been a major source of new migrants in the years since 2015, according to several annual migration reports released by the Swedish Migration board.

Between 2010 and 2020, Sweden granted 1.2 million residency permits, with around a quarter being granted for family reunification or 365,000 in total. Asylum permits over the same period amounted to 295,000, while work permits totalled 300,000.

The influx of new people to Sweden has been so dramatic in recent years — and heavily impacting a national population that was comparatively small to start with — over one in five of all people in the country is now born abroad, with 1.9 million residing in the country. 73 per cent of Sweden’s population growth is down to mass migration, and the country has the second-highest rate of growth in the EU….

    Common sense asks. Why would a person whose religion regards outsiders as worthless and deserving death ever want to live among them? So they can be eliminated and their country taken over. Stay out of my country!

      Take comfort mortimer in the fact that now that these idiot swedes are letting hundreds of thousands of muslims in to their midst we wont have to listen to their bs for much longer. And they shouldn’t come asking for outside help because as they say, who cares.

      • gravenimage says

        Jun 14, 2020 at 1:54 am

        I don’t “take comfort” in Muslims taking over the civilized West, tgusa.

          The world is once again dividing in to camps. We are heading towards another conflagration but with each world war the conflict grows the players change. A reshuffling of the deck. WWI, fairly big. WWII bigger yet. WWIII even bigger.

          What do you propose? Do you think it will all just go away. Do you think we have any chance to win with people such as we see in the videos among us? I know it sucks, I know it is a really uncomfortable thing to contemplate but you better do just that.

        • gravenimage says

          Jun 15, 2020 at 2:15 am

          How is my not taking comfort in this insanity a sign that I think it will just go away?

          I think that more people *are* slowly grasping that Islam is a threat–but no, I don’t expect most of the far Left to every understand this. But those rioting in the streets are, as awful as this is, a fairly small part of the population. If we lived in sane times, this rioting would have been shut down as soon as it started. This appeasement is just emboldening them.

    • James Lincoln says

      Jun 14, 2020 at 4:58 am

      Maybe the native Swedes should just get it over with:

      Buy all the muslims in Sweden a machete, and asked them, nicely, to please cut their head off. (sarc off)

    As these insane racial replacements occur in countries, with liberal exhuberance and a lot of misinformation about why this happens, the citizens are silence about their concerns….the imams and jihades must be laughing at the ease of this war front of conquest. Do the citizens count at all or just have to submit to the ignnorance of this subversive end that is driving the population movement increase to overwhelm.

    ……………..

    What suicidal insanity is this, especially in a nation of only 10 million?

    immigrants are offered asylum in the asylum of Sweden in which the inmates run the asylum.

  16. OLD GUY says

    Jun 14, 2020 at 4:51 pm

    Well there goes tourism to Sweden. 98,000 migrant invaders is a large army entering your society with one thing in mind and that is the overthrow of your culture and country. Sweden is headed for islamic dictatorship with a loss of their freedoms to a “religious” ideology that is based on violence.
