Scandal: Jews not invited to Swedish Kristallnacht commemoration
Arutz Sheva ^ | 11/9/2015 | Tova Dvorin

The organizers of an anti-Nazi event in Sweden face controversy Monday, after declining to invite the Jewish community to the event.

"Umeå against Nazism" will run in the city of Umeå on Tuesday and Wednesday, commemorating Kirstallnacht, or the "Night of Broken Glass," the massive 1938 pogrom against Austrian and German Jews which is seen as marking the start of the holocaust.

But, absurdly, Jews will not be invited.

The organizers claim that inviting the Jewish community presents a security risk, nt.se reports, citing anti-Semitic and anti-Israel protests present at past events.

Because the muslim organizers said, “This is a celebration of Kristalnacht, not a sad thing!”

They should let them attend so long as they wear little yellow stars or something.

Sweden is already lost to islam. I was listening to the radio yesterday and that subject came up. It is too late to reverse what has been done. Other nations need to strongly consider before they take anymore muzzies.

Right you are. This is not a case of stupidity, or even cowardliness. It's one of complete, abject surrender.

Well since Sweden is so anti-Jewish/Israel I wouldn’t want to attend anyway, plus it happened in Germany.

Weird since Sweden is so anti-Israel. Having a commemorative for that event is ludicrous. Plus it happened in Germany. Can’t be hurting those mussie’s feelings now can we?

Umea is a stronghold for the political left. In general, the left in Sweden is very anti-Israel and pro-Palestinian. Why? Israel is backed by the US. Simple as that.

The opposition found the invitations to the event a shameful disgrace and held a ceremony with the Jewish community. Anders Agren, mentioned in the full article, is a member of the moderate party (center-right).

Guests of honor at the first one. Perhaps it's not a commemoration, rather a reinactment.

The Allies defeated Nazi Germany militarily...but we did not defeat the idea of anti-Semitic fascism —that lives on into the present day.
