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

Sweden: Muslim migrant ‘Swede of the Year’ found to have hounded Jews and gays online for years

Oct 18, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer 37 Comments

How does one distinguish from genuinely moderate Muslims who sincerely desire to integrate into Western society from Islamic supremacists and jihadists? No one has ever satisfactorily answered that question, as there is no institutional distinction between them in Muslim communities: there isn’t an “extremist mosque” on one corner and a “moderate mosque” on the next corner, like a Baptist church and a Catholic church on a street, and there are numerous instances of jihadis operating freely within Muslim communities without being put out of their mosques. After a Muslim who supported the Islamic State shot a police officer in Philadelphia, the local mosque leaders initially denied knowing him, but then it turned out they were lying, and the jihadi attended the mosque frequently. The same thing happened after jihadis attacked our free speech event in Garland, Texas: the mosque they attended in Phoenix denied knowing them, but it turned out they were regular members. And just recently, a Muslim migrant in Germany who was hailed as “Ambassador of Saxony” for being a successful model of integration beat a woman to death.

How can this sort of thing be prevented, and moderates welcomed while jihadis are kept out? This cannot be done, and so instead, those who ask the question are smeared as “bigots” and “Islamophobes.”

“‘Swede of the Year’ hounded Jews and gays online,” translated from “‘Schwede des Jahres’ hetzte im Netz gegen Juden und Schwule,” UnserTirol24, October 16, 2020 (thanks to Medforth):

The unanimous good reputation of Hamid Zafar, who was named “Swede of the Year” in 2018, seems to be crumbling. The Afghan, celebrated as a symbol of integration, is said to have hounded Jews and homosexuals online for years.

The reports about the supposed double life of Zafar have caused horror in the Swedish media ever since they were published. The Afghan is known nationwide and has campaigned for the integration of young people with a migrant background on various levels for several years. Hamid Zafar was also employed as an expert on extremist Islam.

In the meantime, Zafar showed his true colors under the supposed protection of anonymity. “Zionist donkey” or “Zionist dog” are terms that he used on a Twitter account. When he argued with a former member of the Social Democrats in the Swedish Parliament about the Breivik assassination attempt, he is said to have written to the politician: “Will we see you begging and praying on your poor Jewish knees?”

In order to spread his crude theories online, the “Swede of the Year” used several pseudonyms. The Muslim is also said to have run his own blogs, in which Jews and homosexuals were hounded. He also accused the Swedish Church there of being steeped in “sodomy”. Curiously, Zafar used to work as a religion teacher himself.

The revelations by the Swedish media did not come without consequences for Hamid Zafar. Several contracts were terminated and an already-planned TV appearance with him was canceled.

      To paraphrase a line from a Randy Newman song {‘rednecks’}which I prefer to title ‘Leftards’

      “Leftards:They don’t know their ass from a hole in the ground”

      Lefty governments in NZ/Australia/Canada,Sweden etc:it is ALWAYS the same.
      They are the ones responsible for allowing mass islamic immigration.
      The Leftist Swedish govt created this situation in Sweden.They are responsible for it.

      Treasonous Political Quislings ..and Quisling was from neighboring Norway.

      This price is political and intended to brainwash Swedes into thinking this Muslim is a Swede like everyone else instead of a muslim that hates Sweden.
      I csn see in your comment that you got tricked by Swedish government propaganda.

        Very true, a leopard cannot ever change its spots how ever much it tries to camoflage itself. Its the same with muslims as its ingrained into their pea brains from birth. That will never cease however much or how long they live in a free society. Its best expell them from Europe if there is to be peace in the future.

    “The Afghan, celebrated as a symbol of integration, is said to have hounded Jews and homosexuals online for years.” I’m interested in examples of the hounding the Swede of the year ’18 used. Would it be like antifa and blm making threats, doxxing, name calling, labeling, smearing, projecting or something more inventive?

    It is that SWEDES are full of WHITE GUILT even though they have NEVER:

    been an IMPERIALIST power.

    participated in the AFRICAN SLAVE TRADE.

    But the EASTERN European countries do Not Have that Ridiculous White Guilt.

    THE TURKS AGAIN

    From 1441-1783 there existed a TURKIC language country

    called the CRIMEAN KHANATE (along the Black Sea) which ENSLAVED MILLIONS (during that time period )( it could be as high as 3 MILLION ) of Eastern Europeans to sell to the Ottomans.

    Later it was conquered by Russia. Those people have No Regret.It makes Horrible Reading.

    According to this article:

    “10 Little-Known Facts From The Crimean Slave Trade”

    https://listverse.com/2018/06/06/10-little-known-facts-from-the-crimean-slave-trade/

    INFO 1

    “Author MICHAEL KHODARKOVSKY claims in his book Russia’s Steppe Frontier that

    150,000 to 200,000 ethnic Russians were taken into slavery in the first half of the 17th century alone.”

    INFO 2

    “Historian ALAN W FISHER has stated that TWO MILLION Russians, Ukrainians, and Poles were captured and sold into slavery by Muslims between 1468 and 1694.”

    INFO 3

    “According to author VLADIMIR SHLAPENTOKN, by 1666, the majority of the people on the island of Crimea were not Muslim Tatars but Christian Ukrainians. Invoking the Turkish chronicler EVLIA CHELEBI, Shlapentokh says that most of these 920,000 Ukrainians were SLAVES.”

    INFO 4

    “Before going back to Crimea, the Tatars laid waste to surrounding villages, killing thousands and enslaving many. One author says that 100,000 POLISH SLAVES were captured during the 1498 raid.”

    INFO 5

    Regarding the POLISH-LITHUANIAN COMMONWEALTH:

    “The Tatars attacked the Commonwealth again a year later. One historian has noted that the 1500–1501 raids netted the Crimean Muslims 50,000 SLAVIC Christian slaves.”

    INFO 6

    “One of the largest Tatar raids on Slavic territory occurred in the summer of 1521. ”

    “According to the Russian OSTROG CHRONICLE, Giray’s men carried off 300,000 SLAVES, while Sigismund von Herberstein,

    a diplomat from the Holy Roman Empire and an observer to the raid, claimed that 800,000 SLAVES were taken from Moscow. If true, this means that a majority of the city’s inhabitants were enslaved by the Tatars.”

    INFO 7

    “The Crimean Tatars continued to raid Christian lands until the 18th century. In that time, they took thousands of Slavic men and women captive,

    including 50,000 POLES in 1612,

    60,000 RUSSIANS in 1646,

    100,000 POLES in 1648,

    and 400,000 citizens of Valynia in 1676.”

      By the end of this century most Europeans will be coffee-coloured.

      At long last the “pestilential Aryan Race” said to have been the handsomest -looking race in the world, will be no more.

      It will be the most stupendous and significant population replacement to have taken place since the barbarian invasions of the Roman Empire.

        It seems likely that the “dilution” would work both ways unless both groups remain within their separate cultures. If the current non-integration continues, then it’s unlikely that native Europeans will change, though, with their low birth rates, they may become a minority.

        When the lefties scream about “racism and discrimination” they overlook the fact that their choice of an intimate mate always involves both race and some discrimination against other possible choices. This is human nature. Most native Europeans will still make “birds of a feather” choices.

        A danger for Europe is the possibility of forced marriages if the Muslim population becomes a significant proportion. In India and Pakistan some Hindu women find themselves forced into Islamic marriage as effectively as if they were booty from a conquest.

    tumult and oppression are worse than slaughter; but fight them not at the Sacred Mosque, unless they

    192. But if they cease, Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.

    No such thing as a moderate Muslim. And why is it a muslim can say and do anything and it has nothing todo with islam and the victims of their abuse have no right to call them out.

    Why are the liberal left and its media giving the muslim/islamic’s a free pass on their treatment of the LGBT persons and the abusive treatment of women and girls?

    Looks like the Swede of the year was not checked out vary well, or Sweden just doesn’t care about the rest of its population.

    These ideas come directly from Prophet Muhammad in the Quran.
    “Kill them wherever you find them” (Qur’an 2:191, 4:89); “Kill the idolaters wherever you find them” (Qur’an 9:5).
    Liberals and leftists in the West use the made up term “Islamophobia” to portray anyone who criticizes Islam as a racist.
    Terrorists all over the world carry out terror attacks “in the name of Allah”.
    They justify their violence by quoting verses from the Quran.
    Islamophobia is a made up word created specifically to silence debate.
    Liberals and leftists ignore the fact that it is an ideology that has nothing to do with race.

    As I have always held: A Muslim is the most happiest in Khafir society, only when he is acknowledged as TOP-DOG by the infidel society. And till that time he just spews hatred and plots destruction of the Khafir society., Appeasing the Peaceful, cools down this fire of hatred to some extent but the embers remain deep within the Muslim as glowing and red as ever. And this spews out from time2time in unexpected and unsuspected ways and this is what that has happened with this Koranimal here., And there are many such sordid examples in India where many such great Muslims habitually make fools of the same Hindus that champion them and put them on an undeserving high pedestal.

    Now that this Swede of the Year has not lost all honor in the infidel society, expect him to go back to his bitter Jehaadi ways .. SURELY..

    But just imagine… Had this creature not been detected for what he really is.. he would have risen to become a powerful politician in Sweden because political power is what is coveted by these creatures. And then the damage that he would have inflicted on Sweden would have been enormous.
