Swedish Welfare State Collapses as Immigrants
Wage War
From the desk of Fjordman on Tue, 2006-03-28 22:49
The writer here has a huge chip on his shoulder. And he appear
quite callous with some of his statements as if he were not Swedish but looking
in a fishbowl where Swedes and Muslim insurgents fight it out. There are many
bad things brought up in this article – we need only mention the speed of the
descent of the whole of Europe is frightening – even though we prophesied what
was to befall Europe about three years ago – the outworking of this is
horrific.
Last year I wrote an article
about how Swedish society is disintegrating and is in danger of collapsing, at
least in certain areas and regions. The country that gave us Bergman, ABBA and
Volvo could become known as the Bosnia of northern Europe.
The “Swedish model” would no longer refer to a stable and peaceful state with
an advanced economy, but to a Eurabian horror story
of utopian multiculturalism, socialist mismanagement and runaway immigration. Some thought I was
exaggerating, and that talk of the possibility of a future civil war in Sweden was pure
paranoia. Was it?
In a new sociological survey (pdf in Swedish, with brief English
introduction) entitled “Vi krigar mot svenskarna” (“We’re waging a war
against the Swedes”), young (Muslim) immigrants in the troubled city of Malmö
have been interviewed about why they are involved in crime. Although it is not
stated, most of the immigrant perpetrators are Muslims. In one of the rare instances where the Swedish media actually revealed
the truth, the newspaper Aftonbladet reported
several years ago that 9 out of 10 of the most criminal ethnic groups in Sweden
came from Muslim countries. This must be borne in mind whilst reading the
following newspaper article:
Immigrants are “waging war” against Swedes through
robbery
The wave of robberies the city of Malmö has witnessed during this
past year is part of a “war against the Swedes.” This is the explanation given by
young robbers from immigrant backgrounds when questioned about why they only
rob native Swedes, in interviews with Petra
Åkesson for her thesis in sociology. “I read a report
about young robbers in Stockholm
and Malmö and wanted to know why they rob other
youths. It usually does not involve a lot of money,” she says. She interviewed
boys between 15 and 17 years old, both individually and in groups.
Almost 90% of all robberies reported to the police were committed by gangs,
not individuals. “When we are in the city and robbing we are waging a war,
waging a war against the Swedes.” This argument was repeated several
times. “Power for me means that the Swedes shall look at me, lie down on the
ground and kiss my feet.” The boys explain, laughingly, that “there is a
thrilling sensation in your body when you’re robbing, you feel satisfied and
happy, it feels as if you’ve succeeded, it simply
feels good.” “It’s so easy to rob Swedes, so easy.” “We rob every single day, as
often as we want to, whenever we want to.” The immigrant youth regard the
Swedes as stupid and cowardly: “The Swedes don’t do anything,
they just give us the stuff. They’re so wimpy.” The young robbers do not plan
their crimes: “No, we just see some Swedes that look rich or have nice mobile
phones and then we rob them.”
Why do they hate the Swedes so much? “Well, they hate us,” Petra Åkesson
reports them as answering. “When a Swede goes shopping, the lady behind the
counter gives him the money back into his hand, looks into his eyes and laughs.
When we go shopping, she puts the money on the counter and looks the other
way.” Åkesson, who is adopted from Sri Lanka and
hence does not look like a native Swede, says it was not difficult to get the
boys to talk about their crimes. Rather they were bragging about who had
committed the most robberies. Malin Åkerström,a professor in
sociology, sees only one solution to the problem: “Jobs for everybody. If this
entails a deregulation of the labor market to create more jobs, then we should
do so.”
It is interesting to note (Interesting?) that these Muslim immigrants
state quite openly that they are involved in a “war,” and see participation in
crime and harassment of the native population as such. This is completely in line with
what I have posited before. The number of rape charges in Sweden has quadrupled in just above twenty years. Rape cases involving children
under the age of 15 are six times as common today as they were a generation
ago. Most other
kinds of violent crime have rapidly increased, too. Instability is
spreading to most urban and suburban areas. Resident aliens from Algeria, Libya,
Morocco and Tunisia
dominate the group of rape suspects. Lawyer Ann
Christine Hjelm found that 85 per cent of the
convicted rapists were (Muslims) born on foreign soil or from (Muslim) foreign parents. The phenomenon is not restricted to Sweden. The number of
rapes committed by Muslim immigrants in Western nations is so extremely high
that it is difficult to view these rapes as merely random acts of individuals.
It resembles warfare. This is happening in most Western European countries, as well as in other
non muslim countries such as
India.
European jails are filling up with Muslims imprisoned for robberies and all
kinds of violent crimes, and Muslims bomb European
civilians. One can see the mainstream media are
struggling to make sense of all of this. That is because they cannot, or do not
want to, see the obvious: this is exactly how an invading army would behave:
rape, pillage and bombing. If many of the Muslim immigrants see themselves as
conquerors in a war, it all makes perfect sense.
Malmö in Sweden, set to become the first Scandinavian city with a Muslim
majority within a decade or two, has nine times as many reported robberies per
capita as Copenhagen, Denmark. Yet the number one priority for the political class in Sweden during this year’s national election
campaign seems to be demonizing neighboring Denmark for “xenophobia” and a
“brutal” debate about Muslim immigration. During last years Jihad riots in France, Sweden’s Social Democratic Prime Minister Göran Persson criticised the way the
French government handled the unrest in the country. “It feels like a very hard and
confrontational approach.” Persson
also rejected the idea of more local police as a “first step” in Sweden. “I
don’t believe that’s the way we would choose in Sweden. To start sending out
signals about strengthening the police is to break with the political line we
have chosen to follow,” he said. Meanwhile, as their
authorities have largely abandoned their third largest city to creeping
anarchy,
there is open talk among the native Swedes still remaining in Malmö of forming vigilante groups armed with baseball bats
out of concern for their children’s safety. As I argued in another essay: If Arnold
Schwarzenegger fails to get re-elected as Governor of California he may like to
do a sequel to “Conan the Barbarian.” He could shoot it in Malmö.
He will get the extras for free.
What happened to the famous Swedish nanny state, you say? Don’t Swedes pay
the highest tax rates in the world? Yes, they do. But tens of billions of kroner, some say several hundred
billions, are being spent every year on propping up rapidly growing communities
of Muslim immigrants. Sweden
has become the entire world’s welfare office, because the political elites have
decided that massive Muslim immigration is “good for the economy.” Soon Sweden’s “army” may
comprise no more than 5,000 men, five thousand troops to defend a nation more
than three times the area of England. Moreover, it may take up to
a year to assemble all of them, provided they are not on peacekeeping missions
abroad. That Sweden
might soon need a little peacekeeping at home seems to escape the
establishment. In 2006 the celebrated Swedish welfare state has become the
world’s largest pyramid scheme, an Enron with a national flag.
Although Sweden is an
extreme example, similar stories could be told about much of Western
Europe. As Mark Steyn points out, the
Jihad in the streets of France
looked like the early skirmishes of an impending Eurabian
civil war, brought on by massive Muslim immigration and Multicultural
stupidity. Law and order is slowly breaking down in
major and even minor cities across the European continent,
and the streets are ruled by aggressive gangs of Muslim youngsters. At the same time, Europeans
are paying some of the highest taxes in the world. We should remind our
authorities that the most important task of the state – some would even claim
it should be the only task of the state – is to uphold the rule of law in
exchange for taxation. Since it is becoming pretty obvious that this is no
longer the case in Eurabia, we should question
whether these taxes are still legitimate, or whether they are simply disguised Jizya paid in the form of welfare to Muslims and our new Eurocrat aristocracy. Although not exactly the Boston Tea
Party, perhaps the time has now come for a pan-European tax rebellion: We will
no longer pay taxes until our authorities restore law and order and close the
borders to Muslim immigration.
This is urgent. When enough people feel that the system is no longer
working and that the social contract has been breached, the entire fabric of
democratic society could unravel. What happens when the welfare
state system breaks down, and there is no longer enough money to “grease” the
increasing tensions between immigrants and native Europeans? And what happens when
people discover that their own leaders, through the EU networks and the
Euro-Arab Dialogue described by Bat Ye’or in her book
“Eurabia,” have been encouraging all these Muslims to settle here in the first
place? There will be massive unemployment, and tens of millions of people will
feel angry, scared and humiliated, betrayed by the system, by society and by
their own democratic leaders. This is a situation in some ways similar to the
Great Depression that led to the rise of the Nazis in the 1930s. Is this where
we are heading once again, with fear, rising Fascism and political
assassinations? The difference is that the “Jewish threat” in the 1930s was entirely
fictional, whereas the “Islamic threat” now is very real. However, it is
precisely the trauma caused by the events of 70 years ago that is clouding our judgment
this time, since any talk at all about the threat posed by Muslim immigration
or about preserving our own culture is being dismissed as “the same rhetoric as
the Nazis used against the Jews.” Europeans have been taught to be so scared of
our own shadows that we are incapable of seeing that darkness can come from the
outside, too. Maybe Europe will burn again, in part as
a belated reaction to the horrors of Auschwitz.
(Yes it shall indeed
and there shall be Warsaw ghetto’s set up
throughout Europe as well)
