A 25-year-old Palestinian who stabbed a police officer at an asylum centre in Denmark this week is the same man who attacked a Swedish minister earlier in the year, Danish officials have said.
Sweden's Minister for Justice and Migration, Morgan Johansson, was uninjured in the attack in March this year, which took place as he visited a housing project for refugees in southern Sweden.
He was leaving the building when a man grabbed a fire extinguisher and sprayed foam over the minister, regional newspaper Kristianstadsbladet reported at the time.
The Danish Security and Intelligence Service (PET) said in a press release on Wednesday that the Palestinian was the same man who is currently accused of stabbing and seriously wounding a police officer at Sandholm asylum centre in Denmark, on Tuesday.
PET said that it had been warned about the man’s mental health and potential loyalty to the terror group Isis, alternately known as ISIL, Daesh or the Islamic State.
“PET received information from other Danish authorities that the suspect may be psychologically unstable, have a wish to travel to Syria or Iraq, that the person in question might have been radicalized and symphathize with ISIL and that the person in question had said that he previously attacked a Swedish minister in Sweden,” an agency statement read.
Danish broadcaster TV2 reported that the Swedish incident in question was the March attack on Johansson at the refugee housing project in Broby, near Kristianstad in southern Sweden.
The PET statement did not mention the Swedish minister by name, but Swedish authorities confirmed that the suspect in the Sandholm stabbing was the same person involved in the attack on Johansson.
“Yes, it's the same person. I can confirm that information,” Fredrik Milder, press secretary for the Swedish security police, Säpo, told Swedish tabloid Aftonbladet on Wednesday and added that the agency had been in contact with its Danish counterpart.
PET also said that the suspect had previously been cited for threatening a police officer.
In Tuesday’s attack at Sandholm a 56-year-old officer with the North Zealand Police was left seriously injured after being stabbed three times.
The suspect’s asylum application had been rejected by Danish authorities and he was scheduled to be deported. He had been held at Udrejsecenter Sjælsmark, a centre for rejected asylum seekers, since July. The centre is operated by the Danish Prison and Probation Service (Kriminalforsorgen) and is located just a few kilometres from Sandholm, where the attack took place.
The centre is Denmark's largest institution for asylum seekers and currently houses around 600 people. The former military barracks lie around 20 kilometres (12 miles) northwest of Copenhagen.
Importing Islamic Nightmares -- While Denying Them
The horror caused by mass Third World Muslim immigration will not go away by censorship and self-delusion.
April 1, 2013
Fjordman
A report prepared by groups in the various Nordic countries has proposed instituting a legal ban on anti-Feminist “hatred,” comparing this to “racism.” Representing the left-wing coalition government in Norway, Ahmad Ghanizadeh from the Socialist Left Party (SV), the State Secretary in the Ministry of Children, Equality and Social Inclusion, was positive towards the proposal, and promised that the government would look into it.
My initial thought upon hearing this is that Leftism is now officially a religion, and that its proponents desire a “blasphemy statute” to ban any serious discussion of left-wing doctrines and their consequences as “hate speech.”
Writer and fellow online dissident Takuan Seiyo commented that not even George Orwell could have come up with anything that tops this scenario. Yes, there is a serious proposal afoot in Norway to ban “anti-Feminist hatred”. Yes, the ministry really has the Orwellian name of Ministry of Children, Equality and Social Inclusion. And yes, this State Secretary in Norway really is called Ahmad Ghanizadeh, originally from Iran.
In 2013, Norway’s Minister of Culture is Hadia Tajik, whose Muslim family came from Pakistan. One must assume that Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg of the Labour Party appointed her partly to remind the native population that they no longer have a culture, only “Multiculture,” but mainly in order to appeal to the Muslim and other Third World immigrant voters whose support his left-wing coalition depends upon in order to stay in power.
PM Stoltenberg in his prestigious New Year’s Speech for 2013promised that his government would seek to ban “hateful utterances” on the Internet. The year before, Stoltenberg used his New Year’s Speech, always broadcasted on prime-time national TV and watched by a large proportion of his countrymen, to launch a frontal attack on alleged “totalitarian seducers” who use the Internet to spread unfounded “hatred.”
I was shortly afterwards contacted by the journalist Ragnhild Sleire Øyen from the state broadcaster NRK, the local equivalent of the BBC, who considered it obvious that the Prime Minister was referring to me personally. I’m sure many other citizens got the same message, and that may well have been intentional.
The PM didn’t mention any names explicitly, but then he didn’t have to, since so many others had done that dirty job for him. His right-hand man in Labour, Party Secretary Raymond Johansen, has singled me out for public attack by name several times, both before and after the Prime Minister gave this speech, as one of the individuals spreading irrational “hate” against Islam and therefore holding me partly responsible for the mental climate that allegedly createdAnders Behring Breivik. I wasn’t the only name on that short list, but I usually topped it.
Norway is a small country, but I still find it unhealthy that a sitting political head of state uses his most prestigious annual speech addressing the nation to launch a thinly veiled attack on individual citizens who have done nothing criminal. An analogy for Americans would be if the President of the United States used his State of the Union speech to launch a thinly veiled attack on writers who use the Internet to publish ideas he dislikes, for instance the conservative author Michelle Malkin, or Glenn Reynolds with his major blog Instapundit. Even Obama hasn’t gone that far, at least not yet. The Social Democratic Prime Minister of Norway has.
Who gets to define “hate,” and do negative feelings always come out of nowhere?What if public anger, assuming it exists, actually has a cause that needs to be addressed? For example, being displaced in one’s own country by often hostile tribes? Should we simply ban any real discussions of this problem instead of dealing with the actual cause of public frustration? If so, what will be the long-term results of such a policy?
Elisabeth Skarsbø Moen is the debate editor and a regular columnist in VG, one of Norway’s two largest newspapers, and the largest one with a truly national readership. She writes in positive terms about Feminism, while at the same time championing the continued mass immigration of people from cultures that are extremely hostile to women. Like most other Western Feminists of her ilk, she sees no contradiction in this.
In October 2012, Skarsbø Moenwrote a deeply emotional column in VG entitled “Our children”, where she lamented that her society sometimes makes a distinction between “our” children and “other” children, that is, people born in other countries. She chastised her own country for not treating all children born anywhere on the entire planet as equally ours. The occasion concerned two young male Muslim asylum seekers from Afghanistan.
I don’t know these specific individuals, but it’s a fact that quite a few of the young asylum seekers who come to Europe from Afghanistan are actually young adults who lie about their age; so they are in fact neither children, nor are they “ours.” Skarsbø Moen thereby managed to tell two blatant falsehoods in just two words.
It also must be mentioned that these “children” usually bring with them an Islamic culture that is often violent and usually extremely hostile to women’s liberties. Yet this self-appointed Feminist does not seem to care much about that, or worry about the future consequences of allowing such a culture gain a foothold in her own country. Skarsbø Moen’s column was pure emotional pornography about how cruel and evil we are for not allowing potentially violent and generally hostile Muslims into our countries.
Neighboring Sweden has in little more than three decades metamorphosed from a safe country into being flooded by street crime and having one of the world’s highest recorded rape rates. Young blond girls in Stockholm suburbs are getting used to being called “whores” on a daily basis, and sometimes dye their hair in an attempt to avoid sexual harassment in the streets of what once was their own country.
Coincidentally, this transformation all took place at the same time as the largest wave of mass immigration in recorded history, much of it from brutal and repressivemale-dominated cultures. Yet most of the left-wing or Marxist Feminist activists and journalists in Scandinavia strenuously deny that there is any connection between these two phenomena, and will aggressively attack as “racists” those who dare to suggest that the mass immigration they support has caused any of this.
In December 2011 a Swedish mother-of-two was subjected to a brutal gang-rape by perhaps a dozen young male asylum seekers from Afghanistan in a refugee camp in Mariannelund, Sweden — although only seven of them were convicted for this gruesome crime. Swedish newspapers such as Aftonbladetsystematically conceal the ethnic identity of the perpetrators in cases involving immigrants, though, and only show photos featuring white criminals.
Reports stated that “The rape was oral, anal and vaginal sometimes with three rapists inside her at the same time while everybody was cheering and clapping. The gruesome rape marathon lasted for 7 hours. 11 suspects may have been involved, taking turns while drinking and getting high on drugs. The asylum seekers were cheering and clapping their hands during the rape marathon while calling the victim ‘whore’ and ‘slut’.”
The Swedish victim went into shock and has naturally become heavily traumatized. She is now subject to panic attacks and lives in a psychiatric clinic. She is also bound to a wheelchair due to the damage to her abdomen. The main perpetrator – Rafi Bahaduri, 25 – had already committed four other rapes in Sweden that we know of.
Despite this, Elina Gustafsson, a local member of the Swedish Social Democratic Youth League (SSU) who defines herself as a “proud Feminist,” thought it would be “racist” to expel these convicted Muslim criminals.
I’m reminded of another left-wing politician from Sweden. The Marxist Feminist Gudrun Schyman, then the leader of the “reformed” Communist party, in a speech in 2002 suggested that Swedish men are just like the Taliban.Fredrik Virtanen, a male columnist for the national newspaper Aftonbladet, immediately agreed with her that yes, Western men are just like the brutal Taliban regime and other Muslims from Afghanistan.
The young woman from Mariannelund, Sweden who just had her life ruined might disagree with this claim.Even native-born psychopaths rarely behave in this manner, yet such a treatment of women is unfortunately not rare in the most repressive parts of the Islamic world, whose primitive tribal cultures Western authorities insist on mass-importing to our cities.
Gang rapes and certain other types of violent crime were exceedingly rare in the Nordic countries a few decades ago, but are currently in the process of becoming routine. In Trondheim, Norway, on the 28th of May 2011, a young girl named Eva Helgetun took her own life. She was just 14 years old, and had been gang-raped by immigrants a few weeks before. Too many others share her fate.
In the 1960s when the so-called Second Wave of Feminism began, often with strong Marxist inspirations, Western women were relatively safe compared to women in other parts of the world. Half a century later, Western women have never had more Feminism, yet they and their children have also never been less safe.
Perhaps pointing out this fact constitutes “hate” in the eyes of some people, but that doesn’t make it any less true.
The problems caused by Third World mass immigration will not go away if we ban people from speaking truthfully about them. How hard can it be for members of the ruling elites to grasp this simple fact?
Swedish minister Margot Wallstrom: shaking up the world with words
Annie Maccoby Berglof
Towering over a busy roundabout in downtown Stockholm is a bronze statue of King Gustav II Adolph on his horse. Almost 400 years after Gustav II conquered northern Europe, Sweden’s foreign minister,Margot Wallstrom, is shaking up the world not with weapons, but words, in an ornate yellow building just across the street. Since taking her post in October last year, the veteran Social Democratic politician has recognised the Palestinian state, denounced Saudi Arabia’s “medieval” floggings and adopted a “feminist foreign policy” that includes calling for a halt to sexual violence against women in war. [Comment: But is fine with importing barbarity and rape to Sweden.]
Now, as desperate migrants trek towards Sweden, and neighbouring EU countries balk at accepting refugees, Wallstrom, a former EU commissioner, insists that the rest of Europe must join Sweden and Germany in shouldering the burden. “We have to find solidarity and help each other out. We have to share responsibility for the refugees based on our shared values . . . If one country is putting up a fence, and another is opening up, this is not sustainable,” she says. Comment: Wallstrom also used the holocaust and the WWII dead in propaganda (here) urging Europe to relinquish national sovereignty & accept of the 'European Constitution', so Wallstrom urging absorption of Medieval emirates imports, is more of the same official neocon-serving propaganda ... the consequences of which Wallstrom herself doesn't have to live with.]
There is little hint of the crisis on a sunny afternoon in the rooms of the foreign ministry, which looks on to the Royal Opera, bridges and blue waters beyond. Wallstrom, 60, who is softly spoken in person, greets visitors at the door of a red-silk-themed room of the Prince Royal’s Palace. “It’s an old palace from the 1600s . . . Sophia Albertina, sister of Gustav III, bought it in 1783,” says Wallstrom, leading the way into the Blue Salon with its display of 18th-century furniture. “They’ve tried to restore the covers with the original patterns,” she says, noting that the royal bedroom where she keeps her desk was the princess’s sewing room. “She would sit with her maids, and make the wall tapestries. I can well imagine that she’s sitting sewing when I am at my desk.”
Today, rolls of fine silk on the gilded, Gustavian-style desk have given way to urgent reports from the wars in Syria and Iraq. Swedenhas taken in more migrants per capita than any European country. “This year we’ve had over 80,000 asylum-seekers,” says Wallstrom, “And we’ve given asylum to over 80,000 Syrians since 2011.” [Comment: Iraq which was invaded illegally & Syria that has been destabilised by the West and its allies funding and arming terrorists.]
Wallstrom — a mother of two sons, Viktor, 30, and Erik, 22 — has been married to her husband, Hakan, for 34 years. She got her political start protesting strife in Vietnam and Chile from the town of Skelleftea, on the edge of Lapland. “A neighbour whose children I babysat asked me if I wanted to be one of the young people to start a Social Democratic youth club,” she says. “It was a political time. It started with international solidarity.” She also discovered power in local politics, and was writing newspaper articles at 17. “I learnt we could change things; get an extra bus [scheduled] at midnight.”
The ministry’s Blue Salon
At 25, she was elected to parliament and, by 34, was minister of consumer affairs, with two other ministerial posts (culture, social affairs) between 1988 and 1998. Regularly topping popularity polls and tipped as a future Social Democratic leader, in 1999 she left for Brussels to become EU commissioner for the environment until 2004 and then EU communications commissioner until 2009. In 2010 she became the first UN special representative on sexual violence in conflict. She returned last year to run the foreign ministry. [Comment: Who knew babysitting & a spot of political protest could lead to such a distinguished career in European politics? -- here]
“We have meals for foreign guests in here,” says Wallstrom, heading through a gallery and pausing in front of Napoleonic-era portraits of noble ministers with necklaces of medals and elaborate oiled curls. “This is interesting. Sometimes people live with the impression men are not vain,” she notes wryly, turning into another reception room. [Comment: Yeah, the question of apportioning vanity to gender is the really pressing big issue in Sweden.]
Lined up around the room, which is fitted with red-checked drapes, are portraits of previous foreign ministers. On the far wall is a giant, 17th-century oil painting of a bewigged count, Chancellor Axel Oxenstierna. “He tried to introduce modern administration. He was a powerful guy,” she says.
To the left are portraits of more recent foreign ministers, including one of Wallstrom’s close colleague Anna Lindh, who was assassinated in Stockholm’s NK store in 2003 by Mijailo Mijailovic, a mentally ill Swede of Serbian descent. “It took away all the joy of being politically active,” says Wallstrom, “She was not a confrontational person. She was kind. I’ve tried to learn from that.” [Comment: Does anyone in Sweden ever actually get killed by a native Swede?]
“It’s my favourite thing because when I started as a minister of foreign affairs, I got it from my two sons,” says Wallstrom, of a silver necklace with a charm. “It’s a horseshoe, for good luck.”
She then plucks out a small paperback from her bag and hands it over to me. “It’s How to Cure a Fanatic, by Amos Oz. I love this book. It has ways to fight fanaticism and extremism.” [Comment: LOL ... it looks like the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is reduced to a battle over 'real estate' and the author urges: compromise. Good luck with the peace mission.]
She leads the way into more modest personal quarters that include a small kitchen, where she pours coffee. “It may be too strong,” she warns, turning into a simple private room brightened by orange woven blankets brought in to make the space more cosy. Here, she reads briefings and ebooks on her iPad at the end of the day. “I’ve told my sons that in life they should always read books. And do something unselfish.”
The migrant crisis has prompted Wallstrom to increase calls for global action to halt the violence generating the exodus to Europe. “How do you fight rape as an ideology?” she says, referring to the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant. “When women are sold on a modern slave market as pieces of meat it’s time that the international community reacts at the highest level, shows it has the means and strength and tools to stop it . . . Violence against women must be defined as a peace and security issue.” [Comment: What a load of garbage this is. The West promotes sectarian violence and funds and arms proxy destabilisation of the Middle East, and is responsible for illegal wars ... but these politicians pretend to be the saviours of foreign women getting raped & sold by terrorists --- the same terrorists West has been supporting and arming, in the quest for control of the Middle East. With politician endorsed and forced immigration to Europe, not only are women being raped in foreign sh*tholes, they're been raped and otherwise assaulted by foreigners in their European homelands ... thanks to these vapid neocon puppet politicians.]
Clock in the drawing room
Wallstrom’s stance on human rights sparked criticism this spring. Her remarks on abuse in Saudi Arabia prompted a diplomatic spat: she was barred from giving a speech to the Arab League, the Saudis recalled their ambassador and the Swedish government cancelled a Saudi security agreement, risking $1bn of arms sales, and creating a backlash from Swedish industrialists arguing for free trade.
Yet Wallstrom says she received thanks for her outspokenness from around the world. “Every day flowers arrived. People long for those who stand up for their values,” she says, noting that Swedish-Saudi relations have been normalised, with both ambassador and trade restored. [Comment: Oh, what a heroine: imports a stunning assortment of Medieval savages, terrorists, killers, head choppers, and rapists to assault the domestic population. But, hey, the Saudi agreement's supposedly cancelled, or so we're *told* ... so Sweden's the centre of wholesome values (never mind those rapes & IKEA killings). LOL ... And what's the bet that there's a leak in several years' time that indicates there's been no such cancellation of arming Saudi Arabia (top Western ally), which now insists on entering into *secret* arms agreements (see Canada).]
A statue by Johan Tobias Sergel
Her frankness extends to migrants. Asked about the proliferation of temporary migrants of Roma origin begging on the streets of Stockholm, she says, “We have to act in a humane way but they have to go back to Bulgaria and Romania.” She adds that both EU countries have received substantial Swedish aid and should take care of their citizens. “The children must go to school.”[Comment: Good luck keeping the beggars at bay, when you've got open borders, an EU three ringed circus, plus Soros promoting European-wide Bedlam.]
Now, Wallstrom must help convince her EU counterparts to offer homes to tens of thousands of refugees. “We have to show that we are capable of dealing with these numbers,” she says. Can Sweden cope? “We’ve done it before, in the 1990s with the Balkans. It will be a strain on our systems — education, housing — but we can do it with help. If we shared responsibility between 28 [EU] countries, it would not be a strain.” [Comment: Save for defeated and utterly co-opted Germany, they're not interested in sharing any such 'responsibility', you ditzy muppet.]
Our time is almost up. She glances at the fine weather outside, but will have to wait to enjoy it. When not travelling, Wallstrom, who owns a small Stockholm flat, spends weekends at her home in Varmland in western Sweden with her husband, whom she credits for supporting her political life. “You have to choose the right husband. Why not choose a carpenter who can do all the practical work and is a smart guy, handsome and the best father?” she says, passing back into the staterooms — once filled with maids at embroidery and bewigged counts plotting war. [Comment: Take it that's not real estate in the immigrant ghettos of Sweden ... the ones that emergency workers and police cannot enter without back-up.]
The reception room in the ministry
For the war-weary who reach Sweden, an outpouring of sympathy has temporarily quieted the anti-immigrant party, Sweden Democrats, now polling at up to 27 per cent. “It has been very moving. We now have to manage that engagement in a wise way,” says Wallstrom, who acknowledges a possible extremist backlash. But as the exhausted masses trudge towards northern Europe, Wallstrom says she will keep pressing EU leaders on their common values. “Our humanity trumps all." [Comment: Oh, sure. But apparently not humanity towards your own kind. Yep, 'humanity' is sooooooo plausible, under the circumstances. LOL]
All asylum seekers have the right to a health screening to
determine whether they need medical care and to detect contagious
diseases like tuberculosis. The check-up is also a chance to inform
asylum seekers about how Sweden's health and welfare systems work.
But Swedish Radio News found that four out of 10 applicants were not
tested last year. Mohammed Sharkan was one of them and said none of his
fellow asylum seekers living in Varberg, southwestern Sweden, received
any medical examination.
"No one has asked me if I want to see a doctor, no one here has been asked," he said.
Robert Jonzon, of Sweden's Public Health Agency, is leading a project
to encourage more applicants to medical exam. He said the Migration
Board and local counties need to do a better job telling applicants
about the purpose of the medical examination.
'Right' to health checks? 'Encourage' applicants? Jesus, have the Swedes no balls at all?
Shouldn't this be a mandatory OBLIGATION and a precaution to protect the population of Sweden?
2013 Sweden -- clearly nobody in authority gives two sh*ts.
Europe's an effing nightmare.

COMMENT
Got to be kidding. And Europe is voluntarily opening itself up to this?
The IKEA murders were for the same reason: denied asylum.
But sometimes the trigger for crime is also granted asylum: a Swedish social worker was raped by an immigrant freshly granted asylum, as he knew (and plainly stated) he would not be deported to the Middle East.
Looking for that story (which I cannot locate the link to at the moment), I came across the marathon rape article (above).
What the political elite (and the media that suppresses information from general public awareness) is doing to Europe is criminal.
I feel physically ill reading these stories and cannot comprehend how any country can allow their own people to be subjected to this savagery and tyranny, let alone take pride in facilitating it.

Western Sahara: The Historical Commitment Sweden Should Remember
Friday 2 October 2015 - 18:51
EXTRACT
Sweden among the signatories of the Treaty of Algeciras
Yet there exists a solid historical and legal argument that has to be brandished in the face of the Swedish government to show them that by siding with the Polisario, they fail to respect the commitment they made over a century ago with regards to Moroccan territorial integrity. This argument will demonstrate to Swedish politicians and its public opinion that their position on the conflict over the years is based on a false historical assumption.
Not only did the SADR not exist before 1976, but Sweden signed an international treaty with respect to Morocco in which it committed along with all Western powers to preserve Moroccan territorial integrity.
By virtue of the Treaty of Algeciras of April 7, 1906, all Western powers, including Sweden, committed to preserving Moroccan territorial integrity.
Was the so-called Western Sahara part of Moroccan sovereignty at the time? The answers is yes.
The spirit of the Treaty of Algeciras was based on the international agreements signed between Morocco and some Western powers, mainly the United Kingdom, which recognized that this territory was an integral part of Morocco.
According to Frank E. Trout, author of the book Moroccan Saharan Frontier, in accordance with the agreement signed between Morocco and the UK in March 1895, the British government recognized that the territory between Cap Juby (the area near Tarfaya) and Cap Bojador (present day so-called Western Sahara), belonged to Morocco.
Since then until 1904, when the UK signed an agreement with France, the British, as well as the French and Spanish recognized that this territory was under Moroccan sovereignty.
The premise on which the Swedish government bases its position is that the so-called Western Sahara never belonged to Morocco before 1975, and as such Morocco can lay no claim of sovereignty over this territory.
However, this premise itself is false. Contrary to common belief in the West, Spanishoccupation of the territory was in total violation of international law at the time.
When the British government accepted the principle of a French and Spanish protectorate over Morocco, it clearly insisted in article 3 of the secret accord signed between Paris and London in April 1904 that Spain could not undertake any action that would alienate the sovereignty of territory of its sphere of influence.
This British position was based on the understanding that the so-called Western Sahara belonged to Morocco and was not to be alienated by any Western power.
However, in accordance with the French-Spanish accord of October 1904, Spain was given possession, but not sphere of influence, of the disputed territory, without informing Morocco or seeking the approval of the British, who had signed an agreement recognizing Morocco’s sovereignty over the territory.
The arrangements made between Western powers were carried out without consulting with Morocco, which was the main party in interest in the agreements signed between France and Spain on the one hand and the France and the UK on the other hand.
Without a renunciation of the agreement signed between the UK and Morocco in 1895, the agreement signed between Western powers in 1904 by virtue of which they defined their spheres of influence in Moroccocontravened international law.
According to Frank E. Trout, even in the event London gave its formal approval and recognition that Seguia El Hamra (present-day so-calledWestern Sahara) was to become Spanish territory outside of the limits of Spanish sphere of influence in Southern Morocco, ”it would have meant a unilateral — and presumably secret — renunciation of the agreement signed with Morocco in 1859, [which would have been meaningless since Morocco was not informed of the renunciation.”
Additionally, Spain was given possession of the Sahara based on a secret accord of which neither Morocco nor the other Western powers were informed.
Based on the foregoing, it is evident that the Swedish government is taking a stance against Morocco, without taking cognizance of the historical fact that it was among the signatories of the Treaty of Algeciras, which committed those signatory countries to preserving Morocco’s territorial integrity.
Instead, as a signatory of the treaty, the Swedishgovernment should seek to help Morocco secure its historical and legal rights over the territory. That the predominant narrative on the conflict omits mention of this fact gives no license to the Swedish to dismiss the fact that they have failed to fulfill their commitment to preserving Moroccan territorial integrity.
Morocco was the victim ofWestern colonialism and Moroccanshave paid a costly price to regain the independence of their country and restore its territorial integrity. By going down this path, Swedendeepens the wound and turns its back on the commitment it made to the Moroccan people over a century ago.
On the other hand, the Swedish government should not disregard the growing consensus among both diplomats and scholars in recent years that the concept of self-determination as it was perceived in the 1960’s is not a one-size fit-it all approach that can be applied to every territorial conflict, and that the UNsettlement plan of 1991 has proved to be unworkable.
Sweden’s Erik Jensen, who served as Head of MINURSO between 1994-1998 said in his book that the 1991 settlement plan has showed its limits, and there is a need to find an alternative likely to help the parties to reach a settlement.
According to Jensen, Javier Pérez de Cuellar and Boutros Ghali, the two former UN Secretary Generals, were intimately convinced that the settlement plan was unworkable, and called on the Security Council to explore other ways.
“Perez De Cuellar’s memoirs show that he had doubts about certain aspects of the settlement plan, and Boutros Ghali repeatedly hinted to the Security Council that it might consider an alternative way forward,” said Jensen.
Therefore, rather than taking sides with one of the parties, it would be wiser for Sweden to help the parties explore the possibility of working out a middle ground solution where none of the parties would come out as loser.

Morocco weighs boycott of Swedish firms
REUTERS
RABAT
Morocco said it was considering a boycott of Swedish companies operating in the North African kingdom because of Sweden's position on the conflict over Western Sahara.
The territory has been disputed since a war two decades ago. The government said Swedenhas been campaigning to boycott products from Western Sahara and international companies with a presence there.
Morocco has controlled most of Western Sahara since 1975 and claims the sparsely populated stretch of desert, which has offshore fishing, phosphate reserves and oilfield potential, as its own. However, the Algeria-backed Polisario Front seeks independence, and a United Nations mission was formed more than 20 years ago anticipating a referendum, which has never taken place, on Western Sahara's political future.
Sweden and other Scandinavian countries have backed Western Saharan self-determination, while France and Spain have been accused by activists and human rights organisations of supporting the Moroccan line.
Moroccan authorities have already blocked the opening of IKEA's first store this week, citing a lack of permits.
A United Nations 'mission' was formed over 20 years ago, on the basis that a referendum would take place ... but it hasn't.
Why not?
It looks like there's been a UN 20-year military presence and, apparently, the parties are no closer to resolving this dispute.
Check out what is spent on interfering in the Western Sahara region. Nearly $56-million in a mere 6-months was approved.
If that's chewed up in 6-months, imagine how much money's gone down the tubes since 1991.
Taxpayer funds of these countries are being spent on this:

Article Detailing The Involvement Of The Un In Western Sahara And Morocco.

(United Nations Mission for the Referendum in Western Sahara)
The UN operation in Western Sahara between 1991 and 1997 was so ineffectual that it became one of the main symbols of UN waste and inefficiency for a hostile US Congress. It cost more than five million dollars a month yet did little useful work. UN staff were paid inflated salaries due to the 'hardship' conditions. It is claimed that some UN staff would overstay their tour of duty by a day so as to qualify for a second tranche of 'hardship' money.
Clinton Foundation is reportedly getting cash from 'one of the world's most controversial mining companies'
Colin Campbell May 8, 2015, 1:19 AM
Another one of the Clinton Foundation’s major donors is drawing new scrutiny amid former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.
A joint investigation by ABC News and Yahoo published Wednesday accuses the Clinton Foundation’s Global Initiative of “being hosted this week at a five-star luxury hotel in Morocco by one of the world’s most controversial mining companies.”
According to the report, the Moroccangovernment-owned mining company Office Cherifien des Phosphates (OCP) has been criticised for “serious human rights violations” by the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Justice. The company reportedly operates in Western Sahara, disputed territory the Moroccan government seized after Spain withdrew in 1975.
The Washington Post reported that both human rights activists and US lawmakers have slammed OCP’s mining operation because it “does not have the consent of the indigenous population there.” ABC reported that OCP is “criticised for removing the resources without adequately compensating the impoverished people who live there.”
David McKean, a Kennedy Center official, said the inhabitants of Western Sahara are being “systematically suppressed.”
“OCP’s operations in Western Sahara are only appropriate under international law if they are acting in the best interests of the people of Western Sahara, and right now they are not,” McKeon told The Post. “The fact that OCP carries out its operations in Western Sahara so publicly seems intended to send the message that they feel they can do so with impunity.”
Accordingly, OCP’s financial support for the Clinton Foundationraises questions about whether it is trying to curry favour with the US government. Rep. Joe Pitts (R-Pennsylvania) called the arrangement a “blatant conflict of interest.”
“Morocco would like nothing more than having a possible future First Family condone its illegal exploitation of natural resources,” Pitt told The Post.
Indeed, according to ABC, OCP has has “sharply accelerated its lobbying of US government officials in recent years — more than quadrupling its spending — as the Moroccan government was pressing its case for sovereignty over Western Sahara.”
For its part, OCP defended both its operations in West Africa and its support for the Clinton Foundation. The firm told ABC that, despite its critics’ claims, it actually reinvests money into Western Sahara. OCP executives also reportedly said “their involvement in the Clinton Foundation was intended to help make phosphate-based fertiliser available to needy farmers in Africa — work the foundation has helped make possible.”
“We have good spots and bad spots, and when we have a bad spot we try and improve it as much as we can,” said the company’s spokesman. “That’s all I can say, I guess.”
The foundation also defended its connections to OCP by touting the nonprofit’s projects around the world.
“Our sponsors made it possible for hundreds of CGI members to come together in Morocco to launch new programs designed to help hundreds of thousands of people,” a foundation spokesman told ABC.
OCP is just the latest in a series of controversies related to the Clinton Foundation, some of which were spurred by a new book by conservative author Peter Schweizer, “Clinton Cash.” Schweizer accuses Hillary Clinton of trading State Department favours for money to her family foundation. Her campaign has aggressively dismissed Schweizer’s work as a unsubstantiated partisan smear.
However, as Schweizer himself likes to point out, a number of mainstream news organisations have investigated the foundation based on information in his book. Notably, The New York Times published an in-depth story linking undisclosed donations to the Clinton Foundation to the sale of US uranium production to a Russian government agency.
German police call for segregated refugee shelters
After fights in emergency accommodation police seek separation on religious lines

German police have called for refugees to be housed along religious and ethnic lines after a series of mass brawls in emergency accommodation.
Last week, a fight between up to 200 Syrians and Afghans in a Leipzig shelter turned into a running battle with residents using table legs as clubs. In Lower Saxony, police reported about 100 Syrians and Albanians fighting each other with bits of bicycles and other objects. Last month, meanwhile, police arrested 14 people after a melee at a shelter in the eastern city of Suhl, with other incidents recorded in Bonn, Dresden and Trier.
With Germany’s forecast of 800,000 refugees this year likely to be rounded up to one million, police have warned politicians in Berlin to intervene before a tragedy takes place.
“I think housing separated according to religion makes perfect sense,” said Jörg Radek, deputy head of the German police union, to Die Welt daily. “Our members have reached breaking point.”
Among the many reasons for the violence, police representatives and refugee groups see overcrowding, exhaustion, post-traumatic stress as well as cultural and religious misunderstandings. “When more than 1,000 people from 18 nations live together it has potential for a certain level of escalation, that’s clear to me,” said Maik Mackewitz, mayor of Calden in Kassel.
On Sunday, two separate incidents took place at a shelter there, leaving 14 injured. The first fight, a lunchtime canteen dispute, involved about 60, police said, while a second spat in the evening saw more than 350 involved.
But check out what the scumbag press has to say on the subject of protest against turning Europe into a sh*thole:
"Dresden, the capital of Saxony, last year became the center of a noxious movement against "the Islamization of the West," known by its German acronym, Pegida."
Leonid Bershidsky is a Bloomberg View columnist. He is a Berlin-based writer.
"Members of a xenophobic movement calling itself PEGIDA, short for “Patriotic Europeans against the Islamisation of the Occident”, have been marching through the state capital of Dresden every Monday for the past year." Oct 3rd 2015 - Economist
In the demented liberal-left mindset, Europeans are presumably expected to welcome the destruction of their social, ethnic, cultural, and national heritage.
By my calculations, just under 6 million will enter Europe in a 12-month period, at the rate they're entering at the moment, based on only a 12-hour figure of those passing through Macedonia, which means that even more non-Europeans could arrive on Europe's shores.
Placing one's particular ethnic, cultural, and national interests ahead of the interests of unrelated and inassimilable (non-ethnic, non-cultural, non-national, and irreconcilably alien entities), is indicative of social, political and psychological propensity within the range of normal, rather than abnormal. It is what one would (and should) expect of normal identification with one's own people, tribe or nation.
But in the leftist liberal ideologue's world, foremost concern and investment in the well-being and perpetuation of one's ethnic, cultural, and national group (ie one's tribe and one's nation) has been rebranded as negative, and it's spin-doctored as 'noxious' and 'xenophobic,' in an effort to sell an agenda that is as self-destructive as it is futile.
If these ideologues had their way, what we now know as nations would become grimy, chaotic, international transit stations.
You don't have to be Nostradamus to predict the future.
You go to cities like Malmö, Sweden's third city.
They are 20 years ahead demographically.
That's what the rest of Sweden is going to be, and Sweden is taking more immigrants -- more refugees -- than UK, France and all the other Nordic country combined.
0:22
And at the same time, Sweden has in the OECD the largest gap in employment between natives and immigrants.
It is literally the worst country in the world in terms of getting immigrants integrated into the labour market.
The central problem of Sweden is that these facts are not openly discussed.
0:43
The right -- the political right, the left, and the media, they have formed an iron cartel to basically censor negative facts of immigration and to, sort of, highlight positive spin on this issue.
And, you know, for a Swedish academic or a politician or a reporter go on TV and say the figures I have reported, that could destroy their career and, at any case, that would cause a huge amount of social reprisal.
1:19
Interviewer
Before you continue, why, if they're facts?
Tino Sanandaji
This has deep historical reasons.
And the historical issue I would argue is that when immigration -- refugee immigration -- for Sweden started in the late 1980s in large numbers, there was huge race -- violent -- aggressive racist backlash.
So, you know, this is another paradox about Scandinavia.
The Scandinavian countries are quite peaceful, but in terms of racist murders, they top the world.
And the Swedish elite -- again, the left, the right, and the media -- they formed a counter-movement to quell racism.
And if the politicians and the media can claim that immigration is good for the economy, that it's not causing unemployment, it's not causing social problems, then they easily win the debate, right?
So then they cheat.
2:15
Then they just create this, basically, public lie that things are going great, we have minor problems, but it is basically beneficial.
So the sort of spin has become a reality to them.
And given that they believe that, when they hear someone say these negative pessimistic numbers, they assume it can't be true because it that were true, why isn't everybody saying it on TV.
You know, the social truth wins over the factual truth.
7:07
But I would understand this if there was a plan.
So, OK, let's lie for a -- or white lies for a while -- until we solve this problem.
The thing is though, the problem isn't solving itself.
It's just slowly becoming bigger and bigger.
And I have to say that the level of speech oppression that they have achieved to completely [censor?] without any real laws -- at least it's not Iran, they don't put you in prison if you say these numbers.
[ Economic & Social Consequences of Addressing Facts]
What they do is, you may get fired or half your friends are going to remove you on Facebook.
It works.
So academics -- you know, these facts are well known by economists, for example.
But economists are generally silent.
What benefit is it for you if you're a blonde, blue-eyed Swede to go and say, yeah, immigration is really bad for the economy.
Then you're saying the same thing as those skinheads, right?
So then maybe you're one of them? Maybe you're racist? Why else would you be saying that?
I mean, even in New York Time, had an article where it was shocked about the so-called 'consensus' in Sweden; how there was a sort of wet blanket over the debate.
3:56
Interviewer
It's like an irrational immigration cult.
Tino Sanandaji
Yes, I would say it is sort of an anti-racist cult. That's what it is, so you know--
If you want to sort of 'psychologise', Sweden is one of the most secular countries in the world, OK?
They've lost their moral grounding -- and they're elitist, in particular -- are aggressively anti-religion, right.
But people, of course, need some sort of spirituality, morality, some values.
And, instead, their values are 'anti-racism,' so they created this alternative reality for themselves where it's the 1930s and they're the guys fighting Hitler.
And, you know, if somebody says 'immigrants have high unemployment' -- some of them genuinely think, yeah, that's what Hitler said.
They don't know what Hitler said. They don't understand that.
And, if you want, you can perhaps find an explanation in the lack of values and people fill it up, then, with something else.
5:01
Interviewer
It's a religious substitute.
Tino Sanandaji
Yes. That's what it is.
It's a quasi-religion, yes.
It's a secular religion.
5:09
Interviewer
So what is the future of all this?
Tino Sanandaji
In the short-term, they're just going to continue.
And we have the projections, that the record levels that we have now are going to accelerate even further.
In the long-run, my guess is that this is going to collapse.
Interviewer
When you say 'collapse,' what comes to your mind? Economic collapse--
Tino Sanandaji
[interjects]
-- in Sweden?
Interviewer
[cross-talk]
--social unrest? Yeah.
Tino Sanandaji
Adam Smith said that there's a lot of ruin in a nation.
By that he meant that nations can take a lot of beating without collapsing.
Sweden will never collapse, OK.
What's going to happen if this continues is just a gradual deterioration in social-economic outcomes, mostly [??].
5:53
Interviewer
So what is the mentality? Is it NIMBY -- 'not in my backyard' -- that as leaders of Sweden we're going to bring all these immigrants in because it makes us feel better, but they won't be going to our kids' schools?
Tino Sanandaji
Yes.
So among Swedish politicians there was -- one of the Swedish newspapers had a survey -- one percent (1%) of them live in the areas where there is a lot of immigrants, and those [ie resident 1%] are typically immigrants.
I mean, that just tells you -- you know, that just tells you something about those people, right, the elite -- which is this is multiculturalism for voters, but not for me and my kids.
If you really think multiculturalism is good, why don't you go and live there?
The fact that you don't live there, that almost none of them live there, almost none of them send their kids to school there, shows that at the human level, at some level, they understand that it is not working.
And these politicians -- some of them -- know.
I mean, I talk to high-ranking politicians sometimes.
Some of them know what's going on, that this is unsustainable, and that basically, Sweden is slowly going towards a cliff.
Sweden's third largest city, Malmö, sits just across the water from Copenhagen, Denmark.
To visitors, Malmö seems quiet, nice, maybe a little boring. In other words, quintessentially Swedish.
But under the surface, Malmö has serious problems.
On Saturday when Israel played Sweden in a Davis Cup tennis match in Malmö, an estimated 6,000 (six thousand) leftists, Arabs, Muslims and anarchists protested the Israeli presence in the city, and many attacked police.
Almost no fans were allowed inside to watch the tennis series because authorities feared disruptions or violence.
Massive immigration has made Malmö today one-quarter Muslim and stands to transform it into a Muslim majority city within a few decades.
One of the most popular baby names is not Sven, but Mohammed.
Pork has been taken off some school menus.
Want to learn to drive? Here's Malmö's own Jihad Driving School.
And despite Malmö's usually placid appearance, this experiment in multiculturalism has not gone well.
This is the Rosengård area of Malmö: a housing project where the radicalisation and crime have exploded, and fire and emergency workers will no longer enter without police protection.
[Rosengård built between 1967 and 1972 as a part of Million Program. White flight since 1974. Inhabitants of immigrant background -- 86% (2012) - hereMillion Program -- public housing programme implemented by Swedish Social Democratic Party 1965-1974 -- appears to be high-density public housing -- here]
1:17
Immigrant unemployment in Rosengård is reported to be 70% (seventy percent).
An immigrant-fuelled crime wave affects 1 (one) of every 3 (three) Malmö families each year.
The number of rapes has tripped in 20 (twenty) years.
And the crime wave has only accelerated a Swedish version of white flight from the city.
Malmö has been so accommodating toward immigrant Muslims that a local Muslim politician and Imam has even declared that the best Islamic state is Sweden.
But don't ask Malmö's Jews to give the city the same glowing assessment.
Jews who dare walk the streets wearing their yamulkas risk being beaten up.

Lars Hedegaard International Free Press Society
And it's true, Jews cannot walk in the streets of Malmö and show that they're Jews.
Narrator
Lars Hedegaard lives across the water from Malmö in Copenhagen, where he was a columnist for one of Denmark's largest newspapers.
He says peaceful pro-Israeli demonstrations in Malmö, like the ones during the Gaza war earlier this year [2009], were met with rocks, bottles and pipe-bombs from Arabs and leftists.
2:22
Lars Hedegaard International Free Press Society
I was there for a demonstration -- a pro-Israeli demonstration with four (4) or five (5) hundred people; Jews [and] non-Jews -- and I came over to cover it.
The police allowed these, say, one hundred (100) Palestinians or Arabs, to shout and threaten, and throw bombs and rockets at us.
A home-made bomb landed about ten (10) yards from me, went off with a big bang, and I thought: well, now the police, of course, was going to jump these guys to get them out of the way
They didn't.
They just let them stand there.
2:57
Ted Erkeroth Swedish Democrats Interl Adviser
I filmed the Police Chief and asked him why are they not reacting to this, why they're not doing anything.
And he simply answered: it's their right according to the Swedish Constitution to be there.
We apparently did not have the same right because we were first [???]
Narrator
Swede, Ted Erkeroth, helped film the Arab-left counter demonstrations.
He saw Arabs throwing rocks at a 90 year old holocaust survivor.
Hopefully, you can show some of the clips from our manifestation for Israel, which is always peaceful and always with a message of peace, and theirs, always the quite opposite: death, hate, and killing of Jews.
Narrator
And like all over the Western world, Arab and Muslim immigrants, along with some leftists and anarchists, have formed a political alliance against Israel and Jews.
They demonstrate together, and in Sweden they vote together.
Muslims and Arabs are a core constituency of the left.
The immigrant issue is a big reason the right-wing Swedish Democrats are the fastest growing political party in the country.
Matthias Karlsson is the Swedish Democrats press secretary.

In may parts of Sweden people are, as I said, fed up and they're getting pushed too far and they want to make a stand.
Narrator
But the Swedish Democrats who stand for traditional Christian values and limits on immigration have been stigmatised by the Swedish media as fascists and bigoted.
Erik Almqvist
Swedish Democrats
The media has tried to portray us as extremists, racists -- we're almost inhuman.
Narrator
Erik Almqvist, national youth leader for the Swedish Democrats, faces regular death threats and was almost killed recently in a left-wing knife attack.
Erik Almqvist Swedish Democrats
The multicultural system in Sweden has polarised the society.
We have an ethnic polarisation. We have, also, a political polarisation.
Narrator
Hedegaard says, as Malmö goes, so goes Sweden.
Lars Hedegaard International Free Press Society
I think the best prediction is that Sweden will have a Muslim majority by 2049.
So we know where that country's going.
Narrator
CBN news was unable to get a response from Malmö's mayor Ilmar Reepalu, but he told a Swedish publication he does not think anti-Semitism is greater in Malmö than in other Swedish cities and said that harassment of Jews is 'not good'.
[Other: March 2012 -- Ilmar Reepalu claimed the Jewish community in Malmö was infiltrated by the Sweden Democrats. His statement was characterized as anti-Semitic by, among other things, Lena Posner Körösi, leader of the Jewish Central Council, and Hannah Rosenthal, White House special envoy to monitor and combat anti-Semitism. Wikipedia / Swedish to English translated]
CBN News asked a number of Jewish leaders to appear on camera to discuss anti-Semitism, they all declined, with one saying it would only make the situation worse.
Sweden could be paying a tough price on its policies on immigrants and multiculturalism.
A Stockholm suburb erupted into violence for a few hours, as crowds of angry massed youths from migrant families burned cars, smashed windows, and hurled stones at police officers.
What's believed to have fuelled the riot was the death of a sixty-nine year old, allegedly shot by police in the area last week.
So to discuss how the mood might be changing in the heart of Scandinavia, we're now joined live from the Swedish capital by Marc Abramsson, who's Chairman of the National Democrats party.
Mr Abramsson, thanks so much for joining us here on RT to discuss this.
Well, we normally have, you know, the image in our minds the image of Stockholm as a very calm, placid city.
So how surprised were you to see those riots? I mean, angry youths setting cars and buildings ablaze?
0:55
Marc Abramsson National Democratic Party
Thank you.
Well, I was not that surprised anymore.
But this is fairly new to Sweden and this is a clear consequence of this multiculturalism politics that Sweden adopted around the 80s, and increased it in the 90s, and we are now seeing these problems; that this politics is not working.
And we have seen this -- this is not a unique one single occasion, we have seen this in Gothenburg, in Malmo, several times, and even in the city where I am an elected councillor in Södertälje, in Rona [municipality in Stockholm County, east central Sweden], we have these ethnic-based riots against Swedish authorities.
So this -- I wasn't surprised, but we have seen this in Western Europe.
It's very sad, and I think we'll see more of this if we don't change the politics in the future.
5:43
Reporter
Well, let's take a look at this particular neighbourhood, and it's 80% (eighty percent), immigrant residents.
And the trouble flared after police killed an elderly man there.
I mean, obviously, these people feel they're not protected by the police. Don't they have a right to be heard?
Marc Abramsson National Democratic Party
Well, I think that the problem beneath this -- it can be different things -- this time it was this man that was arrested and resisted and was killed.
We have other things that happened in other places.
But the main reason is that they don't identify themselves with the Swedish society or as Swedes, but their own ethnic group, they live in their own area, and they feel the area is their own, and when the police arrive, they feel that the police are intruding into their, sort of, country, if you would like.
Reporter
So how did that happen? I mean, what led to that?
Sorry for interrupting you.
But what led to that, I mean, how did they -- sort of their neighbourhood or the community where they live turn into a sort of ghetto type dwelling there.
I mean, what about the integration policies, is the government doing anything at all to integrate the immigrants?
Marc Abramsson National Democratic Party
Yes, I think that Sweden has been trying harder than any other country in Europe to try to push for integration, where we invested virtually billions into it of taxpayers' money.
We've tried everything that the scientists have presented and, still, it's not working.
And the problem -- the core here -- is that these people don't identify themselves as-- they identify themselves as their own ethnic group, and accede to the interests of their group.
And with the second generation, it's even worse, because they are between the Swedish society and their parents' society, if you would like to.
And it's clearly not working.
It's not working in Sweden, it's in France, or in the United States.
This is something we'll see more of, and I don't think it's solvable to integrate this huge influx.
If it was just a couple of people, of course.
But what we have in Sweden today is an immigration stream that is so huge that we have no roof, where there's nothing that says we'll accept this many, or we can accept ten thousand (10,000) or a thousand (1,000), but it is unlimited.
And that is basically -- I think this is really why this is escalating, because they want to live with their own people, their own ethnic group.
They seek actively to live with their own group.
So they concentrate themselves to these areas, and then they feel like their have their own little town in Sweden and they don't accept or identify with the Swedish authorities and this is just getting--
We have seen this for several years coming up with police cars: when they do work in these areas they have to be two cars, one protecting the other, when they're working in these areas.
People are trying to maintain builds, have to have guards -- security guards.
The fire department can't work.
We've seen this in Malmo when they get attacked by angry immigrant youths that feel like they're intruding into their own area, even when they're trying to help.
And this is basically-- it's not about bad or good people. It's just a consequence of this politics.
And what we would like to see, instead, is safe havens. That we help people their own countries or in neighbouring countries--
5:28 Reporter
[interrupting]
I understand, Marc, unfortunately we're running out of time.
We have to leave it there, but thanks for talking to us here at RT and letting us know what you think on this issue.'
That was Marc Abramsson, the Chairman of the National Democrats party [Sweden].
