OFFICIALS in the Swedish government have been accused of "covering up" migrant rape and refugee violence for the sake of appearing politically correct in a Fox News broadcast.

Journalist Ami Horowitz told Fox News people high up in the Swedish government are purposely covering up the prepretrators of rape crimes to protect "vulnerable" migrants.
During an explosive interview on Friday, Mr Horowitz claimed the refugee violence crisis was out-of-control but that "European virtues" had put a stop to any discussion on the statistics.

His claims sparked Donald Trump to tell a rally in Florida that migration in Europe was out of control.
Sweden accepted 160,000 asylum-seekers last year, with Fox News claiming only 500 have managed to gain employment - 0.3 per cent of those who arrived to claim refugee status.

"So they want to open up their borders up to everyone and anyone.
"From the onset of the refugee crisis, there was a surge in gun violence and rape - the statistics were clear.
"But locals were just said 'it was men, not refugees' so the majority in Sweden still want to have an open door policy. It’s confounding, really."
He added: "The Swedish government try to cover up refugee rapes.
"There were a spate of violent attacks and sexual assaults at a music festival but officials tried to cover up who the prepetrators were.
"The government has gone out of its way to cover up these figures."

The Swedish government try to cover up refugee rapes Ami Horowitz Tucker Carlson, an anchor at the US news station, called Sweden's response "grotesque" before adding that "Western masochism knows no bounds".
Express.co.uk has previously reported how Prime Minister Stefan Löfven implemented border controls in October 2016 and a study by think tank Demos this week found there had been an increasing use of the term "Swedish values" by all parties, since the beginning of 2015, as they began to recognise public concerns.
Many fear that the high levels of unemployment among migrants in Sweden means greater social unrest will be inevitable.
Later in the interview, Mr Horowitz warned if Sweden did not change its policy soon, then they will have to prepare for "social unrest and terrorism just like in France and Belgium".

The interview on Fox News was framed in a debate on 'What the US could learn from Sweden's refugee policy'.
This comes as Donald Trump revealed plans to roll out a new executive order on immigrant restrictions next week.
During a press conference on Thursday, the US President told the media: "We had a very smooth roll out of the travel ban - but we had a very bad court decision.
"So we're going to fix that."
Looking back, I see that your chart label says 2012. I got “2013” from the file name at the bottom “CTS2013_SexualViolence.xls”. The US number for rapes was much lower for 2012 (85,141) while Sweden was slightly higher (5,949), so in my calculation Sweden would have come out even worse for that year. For the last year listed at UNODC (2014), Sweden was considerably higher (6,294) than for 2013.
So, if a Swedish woman is impregnated as a result of a rape, can she abort the pregnancy or would that be considered a hate crime?
“So, if a Swedish woman is impregnated as a result of a rape, can she abort the pregnancy or would that be considered a hate crime?”
Very good question! Well, if the rapist was a Muslim “refugee”, to be consistent, the leftists should accuse her of being “islmaphobic”, right?
That’s what I was thinking. Obviously, if she is raped by a fellow Swede, then, yes, of course the baby must not be allowed to live. At the very least she should have to marry her rapist if he’s a mooselimb.
Those stats are from 2012. Pretty meaningless by now, I’d bet (and in a bad way). (And I wonder why South Africa isn’t listed - they must be in the triple digits.)
But perhaps the vast majority of migrants are rapists.
For the more sane citizens - but, like us with 2 terms of Obama, they get what they are willing to settle for.
Just read http://www.barenakedislam.com/ each day and you’ll know Trump is speaking the truth. Swedencide has been going on for at least two years. The country of my mom’s family is gone. It breaks my heart but these foolish naive people just didn’t understand the danger they were facing and when they did it was way too late. RIP Sweden.
Fair enough. Neither has had an election in a while, right?
I got confused, with the way some European govts have elections.
I need to go look it up.
You and me both....I know they have a sector of citizens who must equate to our "silent majority" but who haven't found a way to stop the insanity - the governments keep coming up with laws to criminalize anything that deals with common sense....
I have some friends from there, grew up in Mennonite colony, said it was terrible. Country is a hole. Cartels, crime, government, it’s all terrible.
Once again we see the “Trump Pattern” in play.
Trump says something that gets people all up in arms, and claim that he is not telling the truth.
Then they discover that indeed, Trump is right.
Lather. Rinse. Repeat.
I’ve heard far more recently that in Sweden it’s 1 in 4 being raped.
Here in Alberta, at west Edmonton mall there was a Syrian refugee who sexually assaulted six girls. The media is deafeningly silent on the matter.
There is not one can say about the leaders of a nation who let in animal who are free to rape the native citizens. Nations who deny the fact terrorism and Islam are synonymous. nations letting in thousands Muslims who will never support themselves and never assimilate into society.
Swedish immigrant problems bump for later...
1 in 4 sounds excessive, 1 in 40 I could believe. Which would still be way, way more (2.5%) than the number in that statistic.
My understanding is abortion is only allowed in Sweden if the woman was raped.
At least this was the case in the early 1990s.
Back then, I was stationed in far Southern Italy with a lot of magnificent beaches. I also did a lot of TDYs to Iraklion Air Station on the island of Crete in Greece.
Lots of pretty Swedish women went to those beaches. If they got pregnant, they would claim rape so they could get an abortion. They’d inevitably wait until they got back home before filing charges. We had quite a few airmen (and sailors) who were charged with after-the-fact rape. According to the rules of NATO, we’d have to hold them until such time as they were acquitted or found guilty. I never saw a single one found guilty, because if the accuser did not show up with six months for the trial, the charges were dismissed. She still got to get an abortion, however.
Lessons learned from this: NEVER, ever give your real name to a hot Swedish tourist if you did not want to go to jail! Back then, a lot of WJ Clintons, Willy Jeffersons, and Bill Clintoons (among other funny but phony names) were charged through our legal office, but the JAG could never find them in any roster!
BTW, the above might be scuttlebutt talk. I never actually knew personally of anyone getting charged, but it was always talked about—and the remedy (make up a fake name to tell her).
Santa Cruz is mostly sane but La Paz is just plain nuts.
