Facing death chants and hate crimes, Sweden’s Jews live in a climate of fear
Times of Israel ^ | 12/22 | Josefin Dolsten

‘A lot of Jews are scared’ in this Nordic community of 15,000, as lines blur between criticism of Israel and anti-Semitism

On a chilly fall day, passersby on a central street in Sweden’s third largest city, Malmö, were greeted with chants in Arabic urging the killing of Jews.

“Death to the Jews,’ and ‘More stabbings,’ the protesters screamed,” recalls Jehoshua Kaufman, head of communications for Malmö’s Jewish community. The protesters at the October pro-Palestinian rally were referring to the near-daily stabbings of Jews by Arab assailants over the past couple of months in Israel.

Swedish politicians, including two parliament members, were present at the protest. However, after Israel’s ambassador to Sweden, Isaac Bachman, condemned the event, they distanced themselves, claiming they had not understood the meaning of the Arabic slogans.

Kaufman questions how such an event had been permitted to take place, and why the politicians had not demanded a translation of the chants.

“The politicians could have left and said, ‘We don’t know what you are saying, but we won’t participate unless we know what you are saying,’” he says.

That’s because the left is the enemy of civil society.

If the Swedes left Sweden en toto, and gave the entire place to the invaders, what would it look like in 10 years?

Dear Jewish people,

Get the hell our of Dodge City - now!

What are you thinking? Do you need another holocaust to convince you that Europe is no place for you?

Get to Israel - NOW!

Even America is no longer safe. America is no longer safe for Americans. Go where you have btothers and sisters and wait for the Messiah.

This is the late 1930’s . . .

Christians and Jews need to get out of Sweden, its ruling elite’s sold it out to the islamonazis. (Although why they’d want to swap their beautiful lovely camels for those infamously plain-jane prudish Swedish girls ? Must be they’ve developed a taste for lutefisk? Yum yum yum! Salty shingles Rule!) /s

The left uses muslims as their shock troops. They believe somehow the crocodile will eat them last.

It’s time to leave if you’re a Jew. Don’t wait around, salvage your business for what you can get, tomorrow it will be worthless. Christians, protect yourselves and stand against Islamization. It won’t be easy or peaceful.

If the Jews are smart they will flee to Japan. That seems to be about the only country on the planet that isn’t infested with these Muslim vermin.

Not to worry....The left wing “Jewish Organizations” will react immediately! They will, of course, caution everyone to be vigilant against Islamophobia.

It will also increase attacks on Europeans .
Every single time you side with islam on anything they view it as weakness and attack you. The more Europe coddles them the more they will rape and murder the Europeans.
