'Islam Is Like Nazism': Top Sweden Democrat
The Local ^ | 22 Nov 12

Posted on 11/23/2012 4:45:35 PM PST by nickcarraway

The Sweden Democrats' new justice policy spokesman, unveiled on Thursday as part of a reshuffle in the wake of a racist video scandal, has already made headlines for his comparison of Islamism to Nazism.

“We’re presenting a new team today after what happened last week,” Jimmie Åkesson said at a press conference, referring to the scandal after the publication of a video showing three party members in a drunken and racist tirade from 2010.

Åkesson presented Richard Jomshof, a former high school teacher who was previously the editor in chief for the Sweden Democrat paper SD–Kuriren, as the replacement for former justice policy spokesman Kent Ekeroth who stepped down on Wednesday.

Jomshof has previously likened Islamism to Nazism in the publication, a view he showed no signs of abandoning on Thursday.

“I’ve also compared Islamism with National Socialism and Communism. I stand by that. I think it’s a completely reasonable comparison,” he told TT.

Jomshof was then asked whether he equates Islamism to the religion Islam.

“Islam is an ideology. That doesn't mean there is only one direction within Islam or that all Muslims think the same. There are different directions in all ideologies.”

Party leader Åkesson did not dismiss his colleague's statements.

“It depends on how you make the comparison. Now we’re seeing an example in Gaza and other conflicts where extreme Islamists are involved, sometimes using the same symbols that the Nazis used," he said.

"Such a comparison can in certain cases be relevant.”

Meanwhile, the party also announced a replacement for Erik Almqvist, who stepped down last week as the party's economic policy spokesman. Taking his place is 44-year-old Sven-Olof Sällström.

The publication of the now-infamous video sent the party into a tailspin.

Its youth wing leader Gustav Kasselström was discharged from his duties as parliamentary secretary on Wednesday after he defended his disgraced colleagues.

Apart from the damage to their political careers, the three politicians implicated by the video may not be out the woods yet.

On Tuesday, Chief Prosecutor Mats Åhlund launched a formal investigation into whether they are guilty of racial agitation (hets mot folkgrupp), a crime punishable by up to two years in prison.

Yeah, there's:

1) The murdering bastard wing, we're familiar with them>
2) The wife beating rank and file wing, who only kill a few people.
3. The "Oh my allah they're going to kill us" cowardly bastard wing, who only go through the motions, and pretend to be moslems.

I think that about covers it.

Sez is all about Muslim mental problems and aggression. Everything is about the clan and family and keeping wealth within it so no out-marraige

Yes, it is. Unfortunately, as with Germany in the Thirties, only a handful of very insightful souls recognize what is striding down the pike toward Mankind.

Two differences:
  1. The play a better class of music at Nazi rallies.
  2. Nazis produced more capable engineers.

..yet another difference.

Nazis sent their mental, emotional, and physical handicapped to camps to die. The Islamists (political Islam, sharia law advocates) use them as weapons delivery systems.

Danish psychologist Nicolai Sennels:

. . . close to ninety percent [of the suicide bombers were] suffering from severe illness such as blindness, cancer, missing limbs or leprosy. Many Muslim societies . . . have a low social acceptance of handicaps and severe illnesses . . . being physically handicapped or mentally retarded often leads to exclusion . . . and becoming a martyr might be the only chance of achieving social recognition and honour — if not just a way to end the pain of being socially isolated (which is especially traumatizing in collectivist cultures like Islam). Al Qaida’s use of people with Down’s syndrome might be another unpleasant side effect of the many chromosomal illnesses resulting from inbreeding between first cousins. People with low intelligence (because of inbreeding) might also be easier to brainwash with fundamentalist Islam

My emphasis.

Today’s Radical Islamists ARE NAZIs - there is no “like” about it.

The Muslim Brotherhood grew out of Hitler’s SS troops in Northern Africa under Amin Al-Husseini. The current jihadists are the result of decades of spreading a hateful ideology into the minds of their children and grand-children.

Better late than never, I guess, Islam will never stop until they have complete control, once they have the numbers, characters like Anders Behring Breivik will become the norm or the countries governments will conspire against Islam in a similar manner.

The Crusaders learned that Islam will only relent once it has a boot to its’ collective throats! The reason Democrats, socialists embrace Islam is because they are united in their hatred of the Jews and Christians. With regards to socialists, they hate anyone who doesn’t put their faith in the government and its’ role as protector of the collective citizenry.

Islam will never stop until they have complete control . . .

Not even then. The bloodiest time in Islamic history was the century or so after Mad Mo went room temperature. With no outside threat, they concentrated on killing each other for not being sufficiently Islamic as they defined it.

The Sunni-Shiite rift originated from this era. Other splits in Islamic brands followed thereafter. The most brutal equivalent in the Christian world was probably the Thirty Years War and it was not only shorter by a third but produced a body count of less than one-third.

Humanity has reached a new low of degradation and decay.

Yes, it has. The pool of infidels/dhimmis is much larger than the pool of jews but also includes the pool of jews.

The universalism of Islam, in its all-embracing creed, is imposed on the believers as a continuous process of warfare, psychological and political, if not strictly military. . . . The Jihad, accordingly, may be stated as a doctrine of a permanent state of war, not continuous fighting.”2 — Majid Khadduri...
