SNIPPET: "An al-Qaeda-linked extremist group in Somalia has recruited more than 20 young people from Sweden to fight in the war-torn African country, the Swedish Security Service (Säpo) fears.

Somali Islamic insurgency group Harakat al-Shabab Mujahideen ("Movement of Warrior Youth"), better known as Al-Shabab, which is linked to al-Qaeda, is thought to have recruited dozens of Swedish youth to engage in terrorist acts, according to Göteborgs-Tidningen."

SNIPPET: "Gothenburg was identified by several sources as the largest recruitment base in the country, the report said. Sweden is also a fundraising hub for the group, according to Svenska Dagbladet editorial writer Per Gudmundson, who has written extensively about the issue."

SNIPPET: ""There are no supporters of al-Shabab here," mosque spokesman Abdi Fatah Shidane told Göteborgs-Tidningen."

SNIPPET: "Young men in Sweden are brainwashed, trained and recruited by terrorists on Somali terrorist movement al-Shabab, according to an informant who spoke to the paper."

SNIPPET: "Inspector Per-Olof Hellqvist of Säpo in Gothenburg confirmed to Göteborgs-Tidningen that young men from the Gothenburg area have traveled to Somalia.

"However, we do not know what they are doing there," he told the paper."

SNIPPET: "According to Gudmundson, the UN's special group on the Horn of Africa made a report on recruitment and financing that singled out Sweden as a hub for both recruitment and financing."

SNIPPET: "In addition, Gothenburg is home to Al-Shabab's largest online community, alqimmah.net, which was established by a former Nazi who converted to Islam, with information mostly in Somali as well as Arabic and one sub-forum in English that picks up the newest translations, Gudmundson told The Local."

These aren't likely blonde haired, blue-eyed Svens or Lars. They are probably children of Somali immigrants.

Gothenburg has big Islamic problems. It is the city where the ambulance and fire drivers will drive varied, longer routes to respond to calls because "youths" drop boulders on their cars from the bridges.

[Cindy]

The recruits aka reverts are possibly white, just like some of the German jihadis, American jihadis, etc.

It’s a mix.

Jihad is jihad and it’s global.

I was worried about the Swedish Bikini Team. It's nice to know they're innocent.

[dennisw]

These are “Swedes in name only”. These are Somali yutes going back home to make righteous Jihad and hopefully get killed. At least that’s what I would be thinking if I was a Swede (a real one).

[Cindy]

I’m sorry to hear about the “youths” there, too.

Thanks for your feedback.
I do appreciate it.

Swedes? Real Swedes? Or Muslim invaders who live in Sweden?

[Does so]

I’m all for a “Flypaper Strategery”. :)

[riri]

Exactly, there is a large Somali population here in Sweden.

[riri]

Incidentally, there is a free public axcess TV station here in Stockholm and the Somalis are the only people who seem to utilize it. Though, I must say last time I checked it out, it looked like a Somali guy who was actually preaching the gospel was on there.

[RU88]

I've heard Sweden has a big muzzie problem. Some cities are practically no go zones for the police. Welcome to the wonderful world of muslim “assimilation.”

Inspector Per-Olof Hellqvist of Säpo in Gothenburg confirmed to Göteborgs-Tidningen that young men from the Gothenburg area have traveled to Somalia.

"However, we do not know what they are doing there," he told the paper.

I love it. Somalia is such a nice place to visit this time of year.

[Cindy]

LOL, thanks for picking that up.

I noticed it too right away and wondered if anyone else besides me was reading that.

[Islander7]

I wonder if any of them hitched a ride on that Russian freighter hijacked the other day?

[Enchante]

aw, c'mon, you don't think they were heading there for the beaches??? As one online travel site mentions, beach-going in Somalia could make for an "ideal destination" ....

"In other circumstances, the beach would make for an ideal destination; however, the general threat of banditry, armed conflict and especially piracy along the coast make this, along with every other option in the country, risky."
