Swedish Jewish politician’s house burned in antisemitic attack

Sweden – becoming more like an Islamic state and/or Nazi Germany every day.

This is attack the second arson attack this year on the Jewish home of someone “active on Jewish issues.”

Swedish Jewish politician’s house burned in suspected anti-Semitic attack

Victim had been previously subject to hate crime; incident is the second arson attack this year on home of someone ‘active on Jewish issues’; no suspects arrested

The house of a Swedish politician who has been the target of anti-Semitic harassment was set on fire, in what his community is calling a hate crime.

The incident occurred on Tuesday night in the southern city of Lund, the Council of Swedish Jewish Communities wrote in a statement.

It did not name the person believed to have been targeted, describing him only as a lay politician with Jewish roots. The victim was able to extinguish the flames before the fire spread to other homes.

Police have no suspects in custody in connection with the incident, which resulted in extensive damage to the property.

The incident Tuesday, in which no one was hurt, follows an earlier arson in summer, wrote Aron Verstandig, the council’s president. In the earlier attack, the victim’s home also was targeted. Both homeowners have been “active on Jewish issues” over the past few years, Verstandig wrote.

Both victims wished to remain anonymous, Verstandig added.

“There is strong suspicion that these attacks are targeted against these people because they are Jews. The latest incident has the extra dimension of an attempt to intimidate a politician into silence,” Verstandig also wrote.

He called the arson “an attack on Swedish democracy.

In December, several men participated in riots during which a firebomb was hurled at the synagogue of Gothenburg in southern Sweden. Three of the culprits who were tried for the attack said it was payback for the United States’ recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.

In addition to Muslim extremist violence, which is common across Western Europe, Swedish Jews are exposed to violence and intimidation by far-right groups on a scale that is rare in that part of the world.

So maybe diversity is not all that it is cracked up to be? How very shocking and so …. unpredictable.

Oh man… This is just getting funny now.
You don’t even have to give Swedes rope to hang themselves with — they’ll make some of the finest rope you’ve ever seen!

The left will ignore this, because it is not “Islamophobia” and does not conveniently advance their political agendas.

So, Bill O’Reilly was right, and Sweden is “lost” to western civilization. Tell me again, why I should be for unfettered “immigration” & a TOTAL Lack of ASSIMILATION?

Sweden politicians just passed a law that there is total amnesty for using a hand grenade to kill a Swede! I wonder if this will become the weapon of choice by Muslims?

Sweden is a socialist paradise and an example for America, according to Democrats.

“The greatest responsibility lies upon the Muslims in America and the Western countries in the world,” he said.

“The Muslims inside the occupied land must kill every Jew and kuffar, by running him over, or stabbing him, or by using against him any weapon, or by burning their homes.”

Batarfi is a senior figure with Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), described by the US as the worldwide jihadist network’s most dangerous branch.

WAKE UP AMERICA

ISLAMOPHOBIA = fear of islam. The koran commands its followers to instill fear in those it wish’s to conquer.. All right thinking people have islamophobia as that is what islam demands!!!!

Wake up America !!!!!!!
“Farewell to England”
This is an interesting “Farewell to England” list of Islamic accomplishments in that country that I thought might give you a better understanding of the insidiousness of Hijrah; that’s the takeover of a nation without going to war. Don’t think for a moment that America is not a target or that there are no American cities where Islamic and Sharia victories and takeovers have already occurred. It’s time for border control, or start planning for a very big goodbye America party
Here’s what has already happened to England within a few years of opening their borders without entry control:
How the British have passively succumbed to the Muslim invasion:
Mayor of London .. MUSLIM
Mayor of Birmingham .. MUSLIM
Mayor of Leeds … MUSLIM
Mayor of Blackburn … MUSLIM
Mayor of Sheffield … MUSLim
Mayor of Oxford .. MUSLIM
Mayor of Luton …. MUSLIM
Mayor of Oldham … MUSLIM
Mayor of Rochdale … MUSLIM
All the following achieved by just 4 million Muslims out of the 66 million population:
Over 3,000 Muslim Mosque
Over 130 Muslim Sharia Courts
Over 50 Muslim Sharia Councils
Muslims Only No-Go Areas Across The UK
Muslim Women.. 78% don’t work and are on FREE benefits/housing
Muslim Men… 63% don’t work and are on FREE benefits/housing
Muslim Families… 6-8 children planning to go on FREE benefits/housing and now all UK schools are ONLY serving HALAL MEAT!
Check your groceries, if a product carries the halal symbol it means tribute has been paid to muslims as a jizya tax

This is a perfect example of the destructive influence the mindless muslim immigration
has in a formerly peaceful country. I grew up in Sweden and NEVER heard a bigoted or
anti-semitic word from my family, relatives or friends. It is not in the ethnic Swedes blood
to discriminate !!! This awful and horrendous behavior, burning someones home because of
ethnicity, is directly connected to the high number of muslim illegal and legal immigrants.
The Swedish Government is in a SELF-DESTRUCTIVE MODE and tha Swedish people
can not do anything about it because they have nothing to fall back on like a Constitution.
However there is always civil war and the Swedish people are on the brink of this last
resort.
There is a destructive infiltration of muslims/islam all over the world, hence the noted increase
of Anti-Semitism and crime against Christians and all non-muslims.
