/View.info/ For Sweden, the year 2023 is marked by three processes running in parallel: socio-economic crisis, criminalization and Islamization.
The latter has the strongest impact on society, largely shaping the new image of the country. The process of “rewinding” the Swedish state takes place imperceptibly, but its results may soon become visible.
The country’s authorities are still unable to effectively oppose Islamization. Right-wing politicians are sounding the alarm louder and louder, but their proposed remedies, such as public burning of the Koran, are unlikely to have any real effect.
The noticeable change in the domestic lifestyle of ordinary Swedes is one of the most remarkable results of the past year.
The country’s large Muslim community, steadily fueled by ever-increasing migrant arrivals, now claims to be changing Sweden’s centuries-old cultural and moral landscape.
In particular, this is expressed in the gradual realization of a project to build a mosque in every larger Swedish settlement.
Money for a mosque for a few days
At the beginning of 2023, at least 34.62% of Swedish residents are of foreign origin. Although, of course, not all of them come from third world countries: for example, once a large number of migrants came from neighboring Finland.
Among people aged 35 to 44, it is about 44.12 percent, among those aged 25 to 34 – 41.19 percent, and among children aged 5 to 9 – 40.37 percent.
Immigrants make up the largest share of the population in major cities such as Stockholm, Malmö and Gothenburg.
However, the structure of emigration has changed over the years and it is useful to understand how it looks now with the data for 2022: 9,869 ethnic Swedes returning home from emigration, India – 8,009 (33.1% more than 2021), Poland – 4,677 (by 47% more), Germany – 4,533 (by 29% more), Germany – 4,677 (by 29% more), Poland – 4,677 (by 47% more), Germany – 4,533 (by 29% more), 5%), Syria – 3,900 (by 10.2%), Pakistan – 3,398 (by 4.9%), Iran – 2,979 (by 21.9%), Afghanistan – 2,732 (with 35.1%), Turkey – 2595 (with 24.9%), Romania – 2281 (with 46%).
There are no official statistics on the number of Swedish Muslims, but there is no doubt that they are many. The first 100 million kroner was raised through the Vi Mår Bra (“We are good”) project, which was launched earlier this year.
The goal of the project is to build a new mosque in Sweden every month. Ideally, the authors of the initiative want every Swedish city to have at least one mosque.
To date, Swedish Muslims have contributed to the construction of 12 temples. And the money for the mosque in the town of Vimmerby (the small homeland of the famous Astrid Lindgren) was collected in just a few days.
Judging by public data, the authors of the Vi Mår Bra project belong to the number of Salafis – one of the most conservative currents in Islam.
The Swedish right-wing press, which reports on Vi Mår Bra, questions how far the Islamization of the country will lead. In particular, they wonder what sermons will be preached in these mosques, what attitude will be given to Swedish women, what will be taught to children in Salafi schools, what attitude towards the Swedish and Western way of life will be enforced, etc. .
The leader of the far-right political party Sweden Democrats (the second most popular in the country), Yimmi Åkesson, recently made a sharp statement:
“Ultimately, we have to start confiscating and demolishing mosque buildings where anti-democratic, anti-Swedish, homophobic or anti-Semitic propaganda and disinformation about Swedish society is being spread. Mosques are centers of radicalization.”
Prime Minister Ulf Kristerson reacted with pathos, declaring:
“In fact, this is one of the most serious reasons for this: “In Sweden, we constitutionally protect religious freedom, which means that people are free to practice their religion. This applies equally to all – Christians, Muslims, Jews and other believers”.
However, statistics show that since 2000, 133 Christian church buildings have been sold, ceded or demolished in the country.
And for the same period, only 25 new Christian churches were built. The Swedish Lutherans themselves, as is characteristic, are quite relaxed on this matter.
“It’s only natural that sometimes the conclusion is reached that the building is no longer useful,” says Markus Dahlberg, head of the Church of Sweden’s heritage support department.
This means that while Christianity is gradually reducing the signs of its presence in the country, Islam is actively spreading them.
A show of force
According to statistics, the birth rate in Sweden is decreasing. Between January and September this year, almost 77,300 babies were born in the state.
Since 1970, the total birth rate has never been this low, says Vitor Miranda, a demographer at Statistics Sweden. Experts claim that such low values are due to the poor economic situation in the country and the decline in the labor market.
However, there is a danger that the places that are slowly being vacated by the dying Swedes will be occupied by representatives of more and more migration waves.
Sweden’s economy, which is currently in dire straits, can no longer offer enough jobs to foreigners.
Many of the migrants are on welfare, which, as you can easily imagine, does not satisfy everyone. As a result, the most active and passionate join the ranks of lawbreakers. Today, most modern Swedish crime is “visiting”, ethnic.
The Swedish police recently prepared for the Ministry of Justice a list of the country’s most dangerous areas to live in, which included 59 ethnic ghettos in various cities.
The total number of their population is about 550 thousand people. According to statistics, violent deaths are eight times more common there than in other parts of the country.
The Financial Times newspaper notes that the rise in the number of violent crimes in Sweden is directly related to the fact that over the past three decades the country has taken in more asylum seekers fleeing various conflicts from the Balkans to the Middle East than most other countries from the EU.
“All Swedish politicians admit that the country has failed to properly integrate many of its new citizens,” says the Financial Times.
People blame the government for failing to curb ethnic crime. Some ordinary Swedes are already ready to lynch criminals.
Last fall, for example, a trial began against Swedish teenagers who executed a rapist taxi driver.
But the forces are clearly unequal – the migrants have on their side many more passionaries who are eager to demonstrate their power to the indigenous population.
Not long ago, convoys of cars filled with migrants from Muslim countries passed through the streets of Swedish cities. They loudly express their support for Hamas in its fight against Israel.
At the end of November, the Israeli government officially warned Stockholm that a regional branch of Hamas was operating on Swedish territory.
Israeli Minister of Diaspora Affairs and Social Equality Amichai Shikli informed the head of the Swedish Ministry of Justice Gunnar Strömer about the name of the head of this branch, which was not published in the press – by the way, he has Swedish citizenship.
However, it is not only Jews who are beginning to worry about their security in Sweden
Newcomers prepare to become “power”
Yimmi Akesson proposes the deportation of particularly aggressive Hamas supporters.
“The persons in question should be deprived of their right to reside in Sweden,” he advises.
This proposal was strongly criticized by many politicians and other influential people in Sweden, as it completely contradicts the dominant liberal ideas in the country.
However, a recent opinion poll shows that a majority of Swedes – 60.5% – support Akesson’s proposal.
Another thing is that there are serious doubts that the Swedish state will ever have the determination to take strong measures.
After all, the same country almost for the whole year allowed the visiting extremist Salvan Momika to commit atrocities, publicly burning more than one copy of the Koran, and thus fatally estranged Sweden from the Muslim world.
Ultimately, his residence permit was revoked. But what is important is not about his actions, but because Momika was convicted of providing false information about himself.
They also did not deport him because the Swedish Migration Agency believed that Momika would face “torture and inhumane treatment” in his native Iraq.
But if the state as a whole still cannot do anything against the process of Islamization, some of its authorities are trying to take positions in certain “sectors of the front”.
So in December, Sweden’s labor court put an end to the question of whether Muslim women in that country have the right to wear the hijab at work.
The case has been pending since 2020. A resident of Sweden, who worked as a subway security guard, complained to the judicial authorities about her employer, the security company Rapid Säkerhet, forbidding her to hide her face while on duty.
According to company CEO Mats Admann, the company has an internal policy prohibiting the display of religious symbols for security reasons.
According to Adman, the hijab can cause aggression towards the wearer and they do not want to create additional conflicts in the workplace.
The Muslim woman did not agree with this ban. The “victim” contacted the non-governmental organization Civil Rights Defenders, where they helped her file a lawsuit against her employer.
The case was heard for the first time in the district court, which ruled in favor of Rapid Säkerhet. But the Muslim woman did not calm down and took her case to a higher instance – the Labor Court.
However, there they fully supported the decision of the lower court. But the Muslim guards and their auxiliaries do not want to admit defeat.
They are now considering taking their claims to the European Court of Human Rights and other international organizations.
Another news is that the Swedish authorities have decided to close one of the two specialized Muslim schools remaining on Swedish territory.
This educational institution was caught propagating extremist ideas, but the school management, naturally, does not agree with the decision to close and is trying to protest against it.
There have been cases of Muslim schools being closed in Sweden before. That is, the authorities are still trying to counter Islamization. But gradually a critical mass of Muslims is being recruited. And maybe the time is not far when they will try to openly tell the Swedes: we are the power here.
