Swedish municipality plans to integrate former ISIS-fighters returning home from the battlefield

In the municipality of Örebro the ruling body have highlighted the problem of IS-sympathizers. According to Councillor Rasmus Persson (C), they municipality will try to help the IS-warriors who returns to Orebro getting a job and get psychological help for their traumatic experiences.

- We have discussed how we should work for these guys who have come back, to make them not go back, and that they should be helped to process the traumatic experiences they have been through, says Rasmus Persson (C) to SVT Tvärsnytt.

The City Council has also reasoned regarding the possibility of offering the returning men jobs, to reduce the effects of social exclusion, which they see as being a part of the reason why the men choose to take part in the fighting in Iraq and Syria.

However, it is something that does not come to fruition at all. SVT Tvärsnytt talked to one of them who is upset by this. He wants to remain anonymous because it has previously been death threats against persons spoken critically of the Islamic State in the media.

- People who have fled from Syria and Iraq and have lost their children arrive at Örebro and are told that some of those who have been down and fought to get psychological counseling and job. I think it's absurd, he says.

Jonas Millard (SD), District of Örebro County, according to Rasmus Persson thinking wrong.

- Persson has the wrong starting point. Our starting point is to choose a person to leave Sweden for war abroad for IS, that person can also stay there. But to get other hand, knowing that there are people in Sweden who have been fighting for IS, you have to provide some form of assistance. It can be therapy or similar to help them enter society, said Millard. "Do not criticize"

Opposition Council in Örebro, Anders Ahrlin (M), says the directions: - I do not want to criticize the proposal. We at the municipality must do something to meet up with young people adhering to these kinds of organizations. What I lack now is an overview of how the municipality's operations are working with the problem. There I will require the municipal government, says Ahrlin.

SVT Tvärsnytt have been in contact with Justice and Migration Morgan Johansson (S) and Interior Minister Anders Ygeman (S). None of them want to comment on the news.

The subtleties of this idiomatic Swedish expression may not be familiar to me, but the point of it is clear.

If Swedes are this deluded, I guess their fate is sealed.

Where do you think "dumb blonds" came from originally?

Vad kan inte gå fel? Har du läst SVTs andra artikel om Örebro. Islamisterna har stadsdelen Vivalla i sådant grepp att folk inte ens vågar julpynta.

2nd generation Swede here and all I can do is hang my head...

Oh how the mighty have fallen to their knees in worship of PC.

Not a one of them should be “coming back”...or “getting assistance” of any kind other than 7.62.
