SWEDEN
Ingrid Carlqvist
"Since the millennium, we have taken in almost 1 million people to this country, and the Swedish population has decreased [by] 25,000. 

So, now, 30% of the people living in Sweden have some kind of different background.

So we are fast becoming a minority in our own country."

  • 1975 - 400 rapes
  • 1975 - same year Swedish parliament decided that Sweden would become 'multicultural', without telling anyone.
  • 2015 - 7000 rapes
  • Last rape study involving demographics and rapes 2005.
(figures available to researchers, rather than ordinarily available data)
Rape increase since:
  • is not talked about.
  • no further study done.
  • journalists do not report on this, as they claim that it has no relevance.


Ingrid Carlqvist says it definitely has relevance, especially with these young girls that have been brainwashed with the idea that all people are the same and that there is no difference between Swedish guys and [third world males].
Example given:

So, a lot of young girls think that they can, for example, go to the residence of a [third world male] to have a cup of tea, and where the young girls then say, "Sorry, I've changed my mind, I don't want to have sex", expecting the same [passive / accepting  / civilised] response as that ordinarily forthcoming from Swedish males.

However, young Swedish girls end up getting raped in those circumstances.

But the victims don't know this, because the authorities and the journalists have hidden facts from people, and Carlqvist thinks that's a crime.


Politicians and journalists are hiding the fact that foreigners are grossly over-represented in rapes, murders and violent crime against native Swedes.

Gad Saad

Two problems West is facing:

1.  solve problem now peacefully; OR
2.  solve problem down the line with a lot of violence.



Gad Saad
who knows house-to-house fighting (escaped Lebanon civil war) conveyed:
the world is not static and that people come of their stupor, and when they do, the things that the authorities and the media, that is covering up, and does not want to happen (or don't believe will happen) will happen.

Ingrid Carlqvist conveys:  for so many years, the voices opposed to effects of mass immigration, who speak their minds about mass immigration and Islam, and how it is taking away democracy and free speech from Sweden, have been called 'racist' by the establishment, that the accusation no longer has impact.

Ingrid Carlqvist says if the authorities go on filling Sweden with these dangerous people, and if they go on giving taxpayer money to these foreigners and their organisations who are working on having Sweden Islamised while assuming [political and social] power in Sweden, one day all Swedes will come to the conclusion that they do not want foreigners, and that the policy of the Swedish authorities is in fact creating what the authorities claim they don't want.

Ingrid Carlqvist refers to the bowl of M&Ms analogy:  here's a bowl of M&Ms; only a few are poisoned; would you like to partake?

Gad Saad says:  as clear as the existence of gravity, Islam has tenets that are incompatible with Western values, despite the numerous examples of peaceful, tolerant, kind Muslims.

However, many people fall victim to cognitive bias [and do not see the incompatibility].

What is of concern tends to be the radical minority, and the peaceful majority does not matter. 

Ingrid Carlqvist

The radical minority receive money, have the ear of the government and [are public representatives of the community].

There are no public calls for reformation of the religion [ie tenets incompatible with Western liberal secular democracy].

Concern is what will happen when these groups have their own politicians elected.


Gad Saad

Of the immigrant masses, a small percentage will be dangerous radicals / linked to ISIS.

However, that percentage is not as important as the percentage of the many thousands who arrive with values that could not be any more different than the foundational values that are dearest to us.

Fourteen hundred years of history suggests it is a large majority of arrivals from those countries who abhor those values.

The larger problem is that the majority referred to above will undeniably change the character of our societies, if they hold those opposing values.  However, there is now way of determining whether arrivals support liberal values.  That, according to Gad Saad, is the fundamental problem.


Ingrid Carlqvist

Being caught lying is the one thing that can cost a politician his job.  Swedes don't like lying.  It's a very deep value for Scandinavians.

According to Ingid Carlqvist, her conversations with Imams and other Islamic persons indicate that this demographic holds an entirely different attitude to the telling of truth. 

Truth is considered valuable and is dependent upon other considerations, such as overall motivations and desired outcomes, if I understand correctly.

Gad Saad points out that there is the Muslim religious scripture that permits lies in the furtherance of the aims of the religion.


33:48
Gad Saad considers Tariq Ramadan much more dangerous than Osama bin Laden, because he is sophisticated and is a professor at a distinguished university.  If I understand correctly, what Tariq Ramadan says in Arabic would be hair-raising, if understood by those that are taken in by his polished French and English academic talks.


EDIT: sorry, my mistake. What Gad Saad said is:
"... and when he speaks from this side of his mouth in French or English, and then turns and speaks from this side of his mouth in Arabic [gestures] - and I speak Arabic, so you can't say I don't understand ... it's misquoted, it's mistranslated - it's not pretty.
And there's a million of these examples.
There are organisations that do nothing but translate these things, and usually when I share these things with people, what do you think is the first reaction? Well, of course, "this organisation is run by Jews", it's "run by Zionists", so it's an impenetrable wall of irrationality ..."

Ingrid Carlqvist mentions the Muslims above non-Muslims social attitude, and there is a prejudice against all sorts of other religions groups as well as Jews.

Ingrid Carlqvist

"The big problem, I think, is that there are big Jewish organisations working together with the government to have more and more mass immigration.  When Jews say, you have to be tolerant, remember [the] holocaust, people listen; the Swedish government listens; the authorities listen; the organisations listen.  And that is really a big problem ..."

Gad Saad
has a theory in relation to that position:

A dhimmi is not a second-class citizen, but a third-class citizen under Islamic rule, whereby, typically, people of the book (Ahl al-Kitab) - Jews and Christians (with earlier monotheistic traditions) - could under certain circumstances be not forced to convert and not be killed, and allowed to live under Islamic protection.  But, of course, there is a price (depending on the context, nasty or not).  But the rules are very clear, as codified in the religious text.

Includes paying a protection tax (ie. 'jizya' - a tribute).

Gad Saad says that a lot of folks from those countries refer to the generous social welfare system as the contemporary jizya.

Gad Saad thinks that perhaps the Jewish [groups that support the mass immigration] take on the defeated dhimmi status, of lying low and not rocking the boat (if I understand correctly); and that this is like [an ingratiating] behaviour in the face of future threat.  Note:  he did not say that specifically, it is my understanding of what he said as an explanation for the Jewish groups that promote mass immigration, or that's what I got out of it.

Ingrid Carlqvist asks what will happen if we carry on being a dhimmi, and states we will lose everything.

Ingrid Carlqvist states that when Swedes wake up to their country being destroyed by mass immigration, who are they going to turn on, and lists:  the politicians, the media and the Jews.

Gad Saad conveys that the Jews are an easy target.

Gad Saad then asks how do we navigate through the realities that we are talking about.

Is there a way to maintain humanity, have reasonably open borders and recognise these fears.

Ingrid Carlqvist says as long as there is welfare states, such states will be a magnet.

Carlqvist says this is not fair, because Swedes have paid very high taxes towards a welfare system with the intent that senior citizens would be taken care of in future and that their children would receive a good education.  But their families are not receiving the care that they need.

eg.  Swedish woman in labour; no beds in hospital; sent home overnight; returns next day & baby had died, in the absence of medical attention (which could not be provided because resources have been overstretched as a result of immigration).

Carlqvist says this is an example of happening in Sweden because of mass immigration.

Carlqvist suggestion is to put pressure on the neighbouring countries:  Saudi Arabia, Qaatar, Dubai - enormously rich countries, who can take refugees.  Carlqvist says that if there is a crisis in Norway or Denmark, Sweden could gladly take all of them.


Gad Saad 

Currently, these Middle Eastern states have not taken co-religionist Ummah refugees (Arabic 'community', ie collective Islamic community), that share the same culture, speak the same language and share the same religion.

But a complete different culture, with different values, thousands of kilometres away (meaning Sweden), somehow it is incumbent upon them to exhibit endless empathy and nurturance.



Gad Saad wants to introduce an evolutionary/biological argument to what is being discussed.

Gad Saad is an evolutionary-behavioural scientist.

Two Darwinian modules:

1.  Kin Selection:  genes extended not only by directly reproducing, but by investing in extended family.
    *this type of relationship attunement is evident across species and organisms

2.  Reciprocity:  
give-and-receive (social investment) behaviour of social species
    eg.  if one saves another from drowning would expect to be saved in event of future threat

Gad Saad thinks both of these mechanisms are completely violated in the context of mass immigration.

1.  It is not natural for people to exhibit infinite empathy to people that are thousands of miles away that are as removed as possible from their in-group mindset.
[comment:  it is not merely a matter of in-group 'mindset'; it is a matter of biological heritage, group development, group psychology, social/historic heritage, kinship etc, and it affects every aspect of the social and political order in the present and the future.]

Gad Saad says:  that's just not how human nature is built.

Gad Saad says, you are therefore forcing a reality that is not consistent with human nature.

2.  The idea of reciprocity:  Gad Saad uses Syria as an example and says he looks forward to the day that Syrian society will reciprocate to Swedes, and concludes that this is not going to happen.

Gad Saad therefore contends that the [mass immigration mechanism] is therefore always unidirectional and refers to:  "the West, the white man".

In his case, he came from Lebanon (Jewish), and he says he hopes he has done a lot to reciprocate in terms of his Canadian identity and defence of Canadian values.

Gad Saad says the reality is that most of the mass immigration from these cultures will never be in a position to reciprocate and, hence, you have a breakdown of the relationship.
[comment:  reciprocation does not matter in terms of mass immigration.  mass immigration is dissolution of one's society and there is no giving back what is destroyed by mass immigration, irrespective of where the mass immigration is from. Mass immigration to European societies is damaging to European people.  It amounts to illegitimate transfer of spacial, social and political rights and heritage of European peoples, to those that have no right to same.  Obviously, this is from the European perspective.  However, the same principles apply to any other society that is potentially demographically altered by mass immigration. ]

Mounting the Effeminate, Submissive West

Gad Saad informs us that those from this culture view Western society as a female to be mounted, so a lot of the values that the Swedes would consider to be the marks of a wonderful person, are detested and viewed as weak and submissive by the outside culture with different values.


Ingrid Carlqvist

The problem is that there are so many still in denial.

Governments, politicians, journalists are caught up in denial and refusal to listen, citing 'racism', declaring that everyone is the same and denying that culture is important.

Gad Saad

In many places in Europe, we are starting to see people waking up.

In some cases, it is bad discourse.  But in most cases, it is hardly far-right.

They pretend that Geert Wilders is a 'Nazi', while he embraces all that is liberal. 

Ingrid Carlqvist

There are no 'right-wing' parties in Sweden, although some may call themselves 'right'.

Everyone was saying that the Sweden Democrats are 'Nazis', 'fascist', 'racist', but now - after last year, after 163,000 asylum seekers and not a village in Sweden that doesn't have an asylum house - everybody sees the problem and everybody gets affected.  Everybody knows someone who has been raped, abused or beaten up.

In November, the Swedish authorities suddenly decided to introduce border controls, and just the other week, they took the decision on much stricter asylum rules.

The authorities are now implementing the policies of the 'Nazi' Sweden Democrats, and in so doing they have potentially detracted from the Sweden Democrats possible attraction to voters, as many people have been appeased by what little the Swedish authorities have subsequently done (after 10 years of Sweden Democrats lobbying against mass immigration), and the voters may be happy with this status quo (versus turning to Sweden Democrats), as many people have been led to believe that the Sweden Democrats are 'Nazis'.

Ingrid Carlqvist suggests:

Talk about feelings to your family and people you know.  For so long, dissenting voices have talked statistics and facts, while the left has exploited feelings.
  • How does it feel that your old mother cannot afford to buy food because the pension is so low?
  • How does it feel when your children speak Swedish with a foreign accent?
It's horrible.  What happened to my Sweden, my country?

That is the beginning.  After that, you can start filling them in on facts, statistics and everything, and then they will wake up.

Go to Gatestone and read about her articles on the Islamisation of Sweden, says Ingrid Carlqvist.

COMMENT

I feel rather smug because I'm awake.  LOL ... wake up, dummies.
Once that feeling dissipates, what you are left with is a sense of horror and a conviction that there is no refuge, no remaining intact European society or safety left anywhere for Europeans.
Relief  that there is still some normal people out there, and that they've produced this video, also fades.
Mass immigration facilitated on the scale that establishes settlements of  non-European aliens from backward, and often extremely violent and chaotic societies, that have inexplicably been introduced to European societies, is a crime. 

In my opinion, the issue is not merely confined to absence of support for 'liberal values'.  The cultural and other issues are way broader and deeper, and much more serious and complex than merely being opposed to what is referred to as 'liberal values', which nonetheless must be addressed urgently by those that are in denial and in danger.
However, when it comes to mass immigration and significant demographic change, the nature of one's values is rendered irrelevant by virtue of large-scale alien demographic transfer itself. 
Whatever the nature of mass immigration and its originating source, mass immigration is a demographic, political and social problem that arises from what is, in fact, invasion and existential threat.
Look at what has happened to the devastated European demographic in America, and look at the social costs to Europeans in American society.   Examine the very model of mass immigration and the costs to European man.  Examine the sadism of inter-racial crime, examine brutal murders of Europeans, examine exceedingly violent crime and the scale of such crime, examine race riots, examine the danger to police, and examine statistics of rape committed against white women in America, to see the results of 'multicultural' and multiracial settlements that have evolved from capitalism's profiteering and/or from liberal ideology later adopted by capitalism and its intelligentsia; disaster and danger manifested in the absence of mitigation by common sense and common sense policy.
Any significant demographic change is a change in social composition and a change that has more immediate, as well as far-reaching and serious consequences; consequences that can only become more acute with the progression of time and with inevitable ongoing progression of demographic change.

Any sizeable demographic change in European society is a threat to European vital interests and a threat to Europeans. 
Obviously, the same principles apply to any other society.

Where arrangements the result of mass immigration or large-scale population transfer are unsatisfactory and dangerous even in circumstances where there is no breakdown in law and order, imagine the danger that awaits the public in societies of disparate peoples when there is civil unrest, or in the event of war.

Brussels raids: Paris attack suspect Abdeslam arrested

19 March 2016


Paris attacks suspect Salah Abdeslam has been wounded and arrested in a dramatic raid in Brussels after four months on the run.

Another man arrested, Monir Ahmed Alaaj, was also on a wanted list, Belgian prosecutors said.

Three members of a family accused of harbouring Abdeslam have also been detained.

...

Abdeslam, a 26-year-old French national born in Brussels, had lived in Molenbeek before the Paris attacks.
  •     Is Molenbeek a haven for Belgian jihadis?
  •     What happened during the Paris attacks?
  •     Who were the Paris attackers?
He is believed to have returned to Belgium immediately after the attacks, in which his brother Brahim blew himself up.
In January, police said they may have found a bomb factory in the Schaerbeek district of Brussels used as a hideout by Abdeslam.

Police found traces of explosives, three handmade belts and a fingerprint of the suspect.

...

Abdeslam has been the subject of a massive manhunt since the attacks, claimed by militants from the so-called Islamic State (IS) group.

...

A number of suspected attackers lived in the Belgian capital, and police have carried out a series of raids.

Missiles thrown at police in Molenbeek by Salah Abdeslam 'supporters' - their sick 'HERO'

TENSE scenes have broken out between locals and security forces in Molenbeek following the arrest of Salah Abdeslam with some residents reportedly “praising” the evil Paris terrorist.

By Selina Sykes

PUBLISHED: 00:01, Sat, Mar 19, 2016 | UPDATED: 11:32, Sat, Mar 19, 2016


Riot police were called in to disperse the crowds who gathered in the Brussels suburb after missiles were thrown at the Belgian authorities.

Tensions were sparked after young people from the troubled area started declaring their support for their “hero” Abdeslam, according to a witness.

An eyewitness posted on Twitter: “Great tension in Molenbeek with young people from the area praising their ‘hero’ Salah Abdeslam."

Police officers were targeted by locals, many of which were young people, who threw objects including bottles, according Belgian newspaper La Libre.

Video footage of the incident shows large crowds in the road where the dramatic terror raid took place, with shouts heard before objects are thrown at officers.

Other journalists at the scene confirmed the tense scenes, with officers using police dogs to get people to leave the area.

Stones were also reportedly thrown at police, according to French media.

Police dogs are heard barking at locals shouting and hurling objects while officers attempt to push the crowd back.

...

Riot police armed with batons and shields move into the area, while several young men appear reluctant to leave the scene.

The presence of riot police at the scene suggests authorities were concerned about potential riots, according to some Belgian media.

The authorities had the tough task of managing the tense and nervous atmosphere among locals on the streets while a dramatic raid was still underway.
Many exasperated locals who left their houses after hearing rumours of Abdeslam's capture gathered by the security cordons blocking off the area.

Tensions have been running high in Molenbeek since the Brussels suburb was linked to the murder of 130 people by Islamic State (ISIS) jihadis in November last year.

Several of the Paris attackers, including Abdeslam and ringleader Abdelhamid Abaaoud, came from the troubled area which has been dubbed Europe’s ‘jihadi haven’.
The Brussels district, where some areas are up to 80 per cent Muslim, was also searched as part of anti-terror operations in the wake of the Charlie Hebdo attacks in January 2015.

In January three journalists were attacked when they tried to interview family members of Chakib Akrouh, the suicide bomber who blew himself during a police raid in Saint-Denis, Paris, after the November attacks.

The Belgian government has vowed to crack down on extremism in Molenbeek which has been thrust into the international spotlight after the atrocities in Paris.

Many Molenbeek residents, particularly young people, are suspicious and hostile towards authorities, who they believe are infringing their liberty with patrols and surveillance.

Earlier this year clashes broke out between young people and soldiers who were patrolling a metro station in Molenbeek, according to Belgian media.

Abdeslam has been captured alive by Belgian terror police after a dramatic raid in which two suspects were shot.

The three suspects arrested at the scene are all linked to the atrocities that happened in Paris on November 13 last year.

No surprise here.

The politicians that have made decades worth of moronic decisions are responsible for this.

Europe had better:

1)  Put its police and what's left of its military on steroids, asap.

2) If there's any sense of self-preservation left in Europe, all of Europe's heirs should immediately be conscripted as a civil force, armed and fully trained for urban warfare.

European authorities need to recognise that they've lost control of the their nations.

Where there's no-go zones and non-indigenous inhabitants of those regions violently challenge the police and even the military forces of the nations they have been permitted to occupy, it's time to wake up.

European people need to be trained to defend themselves and their nations.

And the morons that have spent decades facilitating the destruction of their own nations need to take immediate steps towards reversal.

Balkans Reel as Number of Migrants Hits Record

By BARBARA SURK and RICK LYMANOCT. 
27, 2015

Groups of refugees and migrants waited in a Slovenian border town, a stopping point for most on their journey to northern Europe. 
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS on Publish Date October 27, 2015.

SENTILJ, Slovenia — The small Balkan nations on the path of the human migration through Europe are seeing record numbers of asylum-seekers cross their borders, and are overwhelmed in their ability to manage the human flow.

Despite hopes that plummeting temperatures and treacherous seas would finally slow the tide of refugees flowing into the heart of Europe, fresh fighting in Syria and growing fears of border closings are driving more migrants to undertake the treacherous trek.

At the moment, the biggest crunch appears to be on the southern border of Slovenia, a small Alpine nation on the Adriatic Sea that has become the gateway to Europe for migrants since Hungary closed its border with Croatia on Oct. 16.

In recent days, fights have broken out over blankets and in the line of migrants waiting in this northern Slovenian border town to cross the frontier into Austria. There were also growing signs of tension between refugees from Syria, fleeing a growing war in their homeland, and migrants from other nations.

In the past 10 days, 83,600 migrants have crossed into Slovenia, government officials said, while 57,981 have crossed from Slovenia into Austria, and 14,000 are waiting in government reception centers.

The remaining 12,000 or so are at government registration centers, stuck on trains or buses, or simply in the open, roughing it in the increasingly cold fields and forests of the ragged foothills.

“When Hungary closed its border, the Slovenian politicians said, ‘Oh, we are prepared,’ ” said Natasa Pirc Musar, president of the Slovenian Red Cross. “They said Slovenia could handle 2,500 people a day. The problem is, we are getting 10,000 a day and hearing reports that it will soon grow to 13,000. This is something Slovenia cannot cope with anymore.”

On Sunday, European Union officials approved a 17-point plan that may not see fruition for months. It includes more accommodations in Greece, the European Union country the migrants usually enter first, as well as along the entire migrant trail through the Balkans, plus fresh reserves of border guards and injections of cash to help financially struggling Balkan nations pay for all of this.

Slovenia’s foreign minister, Karl Erjavec,
said his country would welcome the support of other European countries, including 400 new police officers. But he warned that Slovenia could not accommodate the growing number of people in need for long without outside support. If help does not come soon, he said, the country will take unilateral measures, including potentially building its own fence along the Croatian border and deploying additional troops to guard the frontier.

“All plans remain on the table if promises from the Brussels summit are not fulfilled,” Mr. Erjavec said.

Refugee officials worry that it is too little too late, and that the new plan will suffer the same fate as all of the previous, ineffectual European Union efforts to manage and cope with the largest movement of people across Europe since World War II.

“This should have been done months ago,” said Babar Baloch, spokesman in Hungary for the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.

Mrs. Pirc Musar, the Slovenian Red Cross president, said, “We are trying to use a small fire extinguisher to kill a giant fire.”

Meanwhile, migrants — exhausted, cold and frequently forced to stop — are growing impatient, crossing one border after another.

In recent months European nations have worked to block the main route taken by migrants fleeing war and upheaval.

Groups of young men from Afghanistan and other countries, noticeably more aggressive toward the police than the terrified families traveling with them, are becoming a challenge for the authorities and other refugees.

COMMENT


It is estimated that only 20% of the unstoppable tide that has descended upon Europe are Syrian refugees, according to multiple recent mainstream sources. 
As a Sweden source has indicated (today) that Sweden's getting 'less than one in three' Syrians making their way through to Sweden, the guess is that the overall figure of Syrian refugees among the throng is actually significantly lower than that reported.
Sweden, taking the Multikulti-R-Us crown, as US-serving neoliberal 'Marxist' EU immigration-destination (with Germany in hot pursuit for the honour), is also -- unsurprisingly -- the 'liberal'-fascist press suppression capital, a press that's heavily taxpayer subsidised.  
So the Swedish taxpayers get screwed twice over, but who's keeping count.  The magnanimous state of Sweden sure ain't.
Germany, with her own heavy-duty state interest in media & therefore no doubt decades long experience in spinning state propaganda, since Goebbels handed over the baton, is the political dissent suppression Meccca of Europe, alongside its Swedish counterpart.
Sweden and Germany:  the evil EU twins.   Who would have guessed?  lol
Germany also has the dubious distinction of appointing an ex-Stasi  East German snitch as the Fourth Reich social-media-suppressing Facebook censorship snitch, and, of course, Facebook is more than happy to oblige, because Mutti Merkel and Mark Zuckerberg know what's best for all Germans -- especially the jacked off ordinary Germans.
Mutti Merkel's Fourth Reich also resorts to press blackouts to keep the German sheeple ignorant and therefore in line.
As Sweden's not to be relied upon for provision of straight immigration figures, and as Sweden is as dodgy as all f*ck (see Julian Assange, detained on trumped up 'allegations' 5 years, no charge), I'd be inclined to conclude Europe's migrant deluge comprises perhaps as little as 10% Syrian refugees landing in Europe.
But who'd know?  Germany and Sweden sure as hell don't.  EU doesn't.  There's no medicals.  There's no quarantine.  There's no papers.  But, hey, there's false papers.  Oh, and there's even 700 freshly minted German refugees that have just gone missing in Germany.  Uh-oh! 
Most are physically capable young men from demolished, chaotic and/or impoverished surrounding countries. 
'Syrian refugees' is the mainstream media sound-bite, often an anti-al-Assad propaganda 'blame card', and also a convenient narrative for this largely Western intervention-induced mass non-European migration frenzy.

Judging by previous statements made by politicians, it's safe to ignore anything European politicians have to say:  the European sheeple need to be pacified.  And talk is cheap. 
It's plain that Europe's politicians have got no plan and, sadly, no balls
National sovereignty is dead in Europe.
Nothing will come of warnings and 'threats' to restore territorial and social order.  And, in terms of social order, the horse has already bolted.  So whatever 'remedies' are eventually taken, the problem remains.

Immigration avoidance strategists take note:  Mutti Merkel's German Open Haus immigration overland march from Greece and Turkey is, of course, making a b-line for the generous, soft, easy policy marks:  Mutti's most accommodating (but disgruntled) Germany, and Sweden's 'feminist foreign policy'  schizo neoliberal-'Marxist' cultural integration Nordic play-pen involving:  knife-wielding maniacs, shootings, frequent grenade tossing, rioting, and fire-setting ... to start with.
'Human traffickers' on a mission to make a fast buck, kindly supplying discarded life vests to many, many thousands of Middle Eastern would-be permanent European residents per day -- every day, is an incongruity nobody's bothered to question or explain. 
Screw you, ideologically sold out, deceitful, complicit, and useless elite and corporate fascist serving mainstream press. 
The cynic in me sees this Great Migration as a highly organised (and highly expensive), adept feat of logistics ... and, therefore, not so legit.  
Of course, the deceitful, lying, double-dealing politicians who have aided and abetted aggressive US-led foreign policy (and have also clearly sold out their own nations and peoples, as US-servile war strategy secondary 'weapons' and their societies as ill-fitting receptacles for displaced Middle Eastern and African migration) knew what to expect from well before 2011, when they partnered in the US-led murder of Gaddafi, plunging Libya into destruction and civil war, before moving right along to:  training, arming, and otherwise supporting terrorist proxies that the West has set upon beleaguered Syria.
So, looking past the razzle-dazzle of theatre of state and military (and past the state and media propaganda), Syria is yet another attempted regime change in the Middle East -- in the service of nothing but corporate fascism.  I honestly believe that's the bottom line -- always. 
I should probably point out here that it cannot just be the West alone responsible for everything, although, yes, there's masses of interference that is wrong (including an illegal war).  But big, bad US-led allies cannot force proxies in the region do what they don't want to do, or force them to fight among themselves.  So the people in the region -- including Arab players in the region -- also play a part in the destruction and displacement from the region.
From my point of view, the domestic public bears no responsibility whatsoever for taking on the blowback problems (including refugees and immigrants) created by the politician shills for corporate fascism, when the crap eventually hits the fan and world populations start moving.  To my way of thinking, nobody is obligated to self-destruct, and certainly not because of decisions made by lying, cheating, con artist politicians that don't even really represent or hear the public.
There's indication that Bashar al-Assad has been targeted by the US and its allies since 2006 (mentioned by WikiLeaks), so this European apocalypse is a long time in the making.

Yet these servants of corporate fascism did no forward planning?  I don't think so.  The ugly truth is that they do not care about their suffering domestic populations -- they do not care about their own blood or their own land -- and they do not care about the future of Europe itself.

The massive displacement of inhabitants from Libya, Eritrea, Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and beyond, is predictable once you know the pattern to look for:  intervention/regime-change/war/civil-war, displacement, refugees, immigration (or something like that).
As I think I may have said before, any experienced politics observer would have predicted this 'catastrophe', let alone governments who have prior experience with exactly this sort of displacement, and as first world governments who have no shortage of experts and advisers on hand.

The highly predictable results of multiple US-led military actions, terrorist proxy destabilisations, and economic sanction assaults on the Middle East, that have been aided and abetted by key European players, would have been very plain to corporate fascist serving lying and scheming European politicians.

So these treasonous politicians have squandered an opportunity of at least six years (if not more) to plan, to take control and to take appropriate action to avert what amounts to foreign civilian invasion of Europe.
Lying, scheming, cheating, treacherous, European politicians could have made arrangements for in-situ humanitarian assistance for the eligible among those that have been consistently migrating into Europe from Africa and the Middle East for years now, well before Mutti Merkel unleashed mayhem upon Europe.
The actions of these European politicians are a gross breach of duty of care to their domestic populations and are, in my opinion, undemocratic and incalculably costly acts of colluding criminal politicians that have placed European nations' long-term social welfare and national security in ongoing and permanent peril.

Angela Merkel declares death of German multiculturalism

Chancellor's remarks, which claimed multiculturalism had 'failed utterly', interpreted as a shift rightwards from previous views

Kate Connolly in Berlin

Monday 18 October 2010 06.27 AEDT


Chancellor Angela Merkel has declared the death of multiculturalism in Germany, saying that it had "failed utterly" , in what has been interpreted as a startling shift from her previous views. The German leader said it had been an illusion to think that Germans and foreign workers could "live happily side by side".

"We kidded ourselves for a while that they wouldn't stay, but that's not the reality," she said at a conference of the youth wing of her Christian Democratic Union party at the weekend, referring to the gastarbeiters, or guest workers, who arrived in Germany to fill a labour shortage during the economic boom of the 1960s.

"Of course the tendency had been to say, 'let's adopt the multicultural concept and live happily side by side, and be happy to be living with each other'. But this concept has failed, and failed utterly," she said, without elaborating on the nature and causes of this failure.

Merkel's verdict marks a shift in her previously liberal line on immigration which had always put her at odds with the more conservative wing of the party.

While she stressed in the same speech that immigrants were welcome in Germany and that Islam was a part of the nation's modern-day culture, her remarks positioned her closer to Horst Seehofer, the Bavarian state premier of the Christian Social Union, who last week called for an end to immigration from Turkey and Arab countries.

They also align her with Thilo Sarrazin, the former Bundesbank member whose book on how the failure of many of Germany's 16 million immigrants to integrate was contributing to Germany's decline led to his dismissal.

Sharing the same podium as Merkel in Potsdam, Seehofer also said "multiculturalism is dead" and that both the rightwing parties were committed to a "dominant German culture". If Germany did not revise its immigration policies, he said, it was in danger of becoming "the world's welfare office".

Seehofer insisted his statement was "an attempt to stop rightwing lunatics" but Jürgen Trittin, for the Greens, called the comments "shabby" and in danger of "lending social acceptability to views similar to those of rightwing extremists". There is a labour shortage in Germany. The chamber of industry and commerce has said Germany is short of 400,000 skilled workers and the gap costs €25bn a year, equivalent to 1% of growth annually.

While industrialists have called on the government to remove obstacles stopping more skilled workers entering Germany, citing lengthy bureaucratic procedures as well as unrealistic thresholds, others say that long-term unemployed German workers should be given more of a chance first. Merkel insisted in her speech that immigrant workers should not be considered "until we have done all we can to help our own people to become qualified and give them a chance".

The issue has caused tension within Merkel's year-old coalition with the pro-business Free Democrats.

...

What they said

"At the start of the 60s we invited the guest-workers to Germany. We kidded ourselves for a while that they wouldn't stay, that one day they'd go home. That isn't what happened. And of course the tendency was to say: let's be 'multikulti' and live next to each other and enjoy being together, [but] this concept has failed, failed utterly."

Angela Merkel, German chancellor

"Germany should … get tougher on those who refuse to integrate before opening itself up to further immigration."

Horst Seehofer, Bavarian state premier

"Integration is the achievement of one who has integrated … I don't have to recognise anyone who lives from the state, rejects that state, refuses to ensure his children receive an education and continues to produce little headscarfed girls."

"A large number of the Arabs and Turks living in this city (Berlin) has no productive function other than selling fruit and vegetables".

"Turks are conquering Germany in the same way as Kosovars conquered Kosovo – with a high birth rate."

Thilo Sarrazin, former Bundesbank board member

Sweden: It Is Considered Racism Only If the Victims Are Not White

--------------------
I'm half anticipating a civil war in Europe.  But I think that might be stretching things too far at this point in time, as the only Europeans armed and willing to stand their ground and fight for their land, and their identity, are the people of Novorossiya.

Sweden's Competing Political Agendas





GATESTONE INSTITUTE
Sweden's Christmas Present: New Laws Curbing Free Speech

by Timon Dias

http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/4972/sweden-free-speech

    The problem is that within the extremely politically correct culture of Sweden, questions, insults and criticism are often viewed as one and the same.

    "Swedes who disagree... risk being labeled racist, fascist, even Nazi." — Mikael Jalving, Author of Absolute Sweden.

    One might well ask how Swedes would react if other countries decided to determine their borders.

    Furthermore, no one seems to have asked what kind of place this new state of Palestine might be: a free, democratic and transparent society like Sweden, or another rogue state, or eventually even another Islamist state.

    Apart from South Africa, Sweden now has the highest number of rapes (that are reported); based on unofficial accounts from policemen and social workers, about 75% of them are committed by Muslims.
Sweden, during its September 2014 parliamentary election, voted in a new government. But whom exactly did the people of Sweden elect to run their new government? In a recent (albeit un-sourced) blog, Ilya Meyer, the deputy chair of the Sweden-Israel Friendship Association, shed some light on the backgrounds and motivations of some of Sweden's new cabinet ministers. A few individuals stand out.

The Minister for Housing and Urban Development is the Turkish Swede Mehmet Kaplan, who was aboard the Turkish vessel Mavi Marmara, of the Turkish extremist Humanitarian Relief Foundation, when it tried to break through the legal Israeli naval blockade of the Gaza coastline. Israel had established the naval blockade in 2007 in response to the smuggling of weapons into Gaza to arm the terrorist group Hamas, which is outspokenly dedicated to exterminating Israel.

Kaplan has also stated that young European Muslims who are joining the "Islamic State" [IS] in Syria and Iraq are nothing to worry about, and are just similar to Swedish fighters who joined the Finns in WW2 to fight the Soviet Union. He has also claimed at the same time that the main reason young European Muslims are joining the Islamic State is "Western Islamophobia."

Sweden's Minister of Education, Gustav Fridolin, was arrested in Israel in 2003 for allegedly blocking the construction of Israel's security barrier in the West Bank, where he has engaged in protests alongside the International Solidarity Movement – an organization that "recognizes armed struggle as the right of Palestinian Arabs."

Sweden's Minister of Interior, Ardalan Shekarabi, who is also responsible for Domestic Law and Order, is a former illegal immigrant from Iran who defied a Swedish deportation order in 1989 by going into hiding. Shekarabi is also known for embezzling state funds for an integration project to aid in his reelection as leader of the Social-Democratic Youth Party.

Sweden's Minister for Culture and Democracy, Alice Bah Kuhnke is a hard-line feminist known for threatening to cut off funds to organizations that oppose honor killings if any of those funds went to men working against honor killings. As a feminist, it seems as if she wants only women to receive these funds.

These are not merely parliamentarians, these are ministers.

Not surprisingly, one of the first actions of this new government was the recognition of the Palestinian State, a move considered as illegal as it was odd: the Palestinians do not yet meet the requirements for statehood, and seem not even to have agreed on even what the borders of their state should be.

Furthermore, no one seems to have asked what kind of place this new state would be: a free, democratic and transparent society like Sweden, or one that might, in fact, be another rogue state, or eventually even another Islamist state. Nonetheless, Swedish MP Hillevi Larsson, as opposed to the Palestinians themselves, seems to have no doubt about what the borders of "Palestine" should be. One might well ask how Swedes would react if other countries decided to determine their borders.

In just two months, this government fell — new elections take place this March — but not before bestowing on the people of Sweden a second measure, far less publicized, and that will come into effect this Christmas. The new measure is designed to make it easier to prosecute those who offend immigrants, immigration policies, LGBT people and politicians online.

As Swedish MP Andreas Norlén, initiator and driving force behind the law, stated: "I do not think it takes very many prosecutions before a signal is transmitted in the community that the Internet is not a lawless country — the sheriff is back in town."

A multitude of online sources reported on this new law as one that "criminalizes online criticism of immigrants," and as such, the news went viral on European immigration critical websites. But is this a correct assessment of this new law?

According to the Swedish parliament, the new law will effectively abolish existing barriers that prevented people from pressing charges if their alleged defamation occurred online instead of in real life. It will facilitate and improve Sweden's ability to participate in international legal cooperation on matters covered by the Freedom of the Press and Freedom of Speech, and it enables people to avoid having to pay for the other party's legal costs.

On paper, this might sound reasonable, and there is a chance the practical results will remain reasonable as well. The problem is that within the extremely politically correct culture of Sweden, questions, insults and criticism are often viewed as one and the same. Mikael Jalving, the Danish journalist and author of the book "Absolute Sweden" stated: "Sweden's leftist establishment and media believe a cornerstone of their perfect society is multiculturalism — large-scale immigration from some of the poorest, most backward nations on Earth — and Swedes who disagree with that plan risk being labeled racist, fascist, even Nazi."

Even the immigrants themselves do not seem to be allowed to challenge immigration policy or immigrant culture. Last year, a Somali-born female journalist, critical of immigrant culture, was intimidated to such an extent by the Swedish journalistic establishment that she decided Mogadishu was a safer place for her than Sweden.

The ambivalence of Swedish courts toward free speech already became apparent when in 2002 a district court sentenced the white native Swedish neo-Nazi Fredrik Sandberg to six months in prison for publishing a Nazi pamphlet, "The Jewish Question." Four years later, however, the same official who initiated the case against Sandberg — Chancellor of Justice Göran Lambertzchose to discontinue an investigation into the Stockholm Central Mosque, after it distributed audiotapes that encouraged Muslims to kill Jews, described in them as "brothers of apes and pigs." He justified the discrepancy by saying that the distribution of the tapes should be judged in a geo-political context. Swedish society seems to be increasingly known for its bias in wanting to criminalize supposed racism by native Swedes against immigrants, while wanting to rationalize Muslim racism against native Swedes, and Jews in particular.

Sweden's third largest newspaper, Expressen, has used hackers affiliated with the left-wing extremist Anti-Fascist-Action group to obtain the addresses of individuals commenting on websites critical of mass immigration. The newspaper then visited their homes and in some instances, published their pictures and addresses. The Swedish TV station TV3 announced that the TV-show "troll-hunters," would visit online commentators in their homes — in a sort of 21st century televised witch-hunt.

The Swedish newspaper Expressen hacked databases of website commenters, targeted critics of immigration, and confronted them at home. The above screenshot is taken from a video on the Expressen website, published under the headline "Jim Olsson writes on hate sites."
This new law has the potential to carry that witch-hunt to the next level. Not only is the political-journalistic establishment intimidating critics of online immigration by knocking on their front doors and shaming them, but under this new law, they could even charge a perceived critic with committing a crime.

Economist Dr. Jan Tullburg published a book in which he states that annually, immigration costs Sweden 7% of its GDP. Sweden is also home to sizeable Muslim enclaves that have become off-limits to Swedish police. The multitude of violent riots that erupt in these enclaves not only cost millions of Krona but are undermining the fabric of Swedish society. Sweden apparently enjoys tolerating the intolerable.

In the meantime, apart from South Africa, Sweden now has the highest number of rapes (that are reported) in the world per capita (see UN "Statistics on Crime, Sexual Violence"). However, this number should be nuanced, as the term "rape" in Sweden is defined broadly and includes more than just forced, non-consensual intercourse. There are, however, rapes that are not being reported to the police at all. A significant percentage of these "rapes" are apparently committed by immigrants from a Muslim background. The Swedish government has refused to keep track of these numbers, which by definition cannot be exact, but multiple reports, based on unofficial accounts from policemen and social workers, put the percentage at around 75%. It must be emphasized that these numbers come from unofficial sources and cannot be verified since there aren't any official Swedish numbers on what percentage of rapes are committed by Muslim immigrants. But, Mohammed, for example, a 27-year-old illegal immigrant from Syria, who arrived in Sweden in September, has thus far sexually molested 21 girls and women between the ages of 4 and 69. According to a police report in neighboring Norway, a country politically similar to Sweden, 100% of all rapes in Oslo over the last five years were committed by Muslim immigrants. [Oslo figure seems improbable, but the figure is said to come from a 'police report', so it is presumably correct?]

It will be illuminating to see what impact this new law has on Sweden's citizenry and their free speech once it goes into effect this Christmas.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^



Article grabbed my attention because of the reference to Expressen newspaper being involved in hacking databases of commenters, which is rather an unusual activity for a news outlet (I think?).
By my estimation, from other material I'd looked at, Gatestone Institute is a pro Israel NGO.  So that's worthwhile bearing in mind when looking at the article.  On the other hand, it's all relative, I guess.  For the pro Israel supporters, the arrest for blocking construction of a security barrier in Israel would not be seen in a positive light.  For Palestinian supporters, this would be seen as a positive form of protest.  

However, facts are facts and presumably Expressen was involved in hacking databases, or Gatestone would have been compelled not to disseminate this information.

There's a number of hot issues and conflicting political forces in Sweden.

Generalising from the contents of this article and from what I've read so far elsewhere:  there's a totalitarian quality to Sweden's liberalism, it would seem:  incursions into freedom of speech and media-led witch-hunts against those with opposing views; labelling of those with opposing views as extremists of one kind or another:  'nazi' or 'fascist'; a politically correct approach to crimes statistics gathering and, it would seem, a parallel justice system; physical no-go areas to police (which I found astounding); violence; and from what I've previously read, issues regarding cultural integration.

Find this stuff fascinating, but I haven't read enough to get a handle on what's really going on.  Looks to be very interesting competing political interests in Sweden.
Maybe I'm strange, but the most shocking thing for me was Expressen involved in hacking of databases.  I'm still spun out by that.
Thought the bit about 'free', 'democratic' and 'transparent' Sweden was quite a giggle. But I guess even freedom etc is relative?

PS  Forgot to do a look-up regarding the Somali-born female journalist that was 'run out of town'.  Sounds an interesting story to check out, given this has occurred in 'feminist Sweden'.
