Sweden’s Far Right Gaining Ground As Social Problems Mounts
Global Risk Insights ^ | 3-10-2017 | Hans Mathias Moeller

Sweden’s immigration policy is honourable but has not come without social problems — which in turn herald a political shakeup.

Sweden has accepted more refugees per capita than any other European country. At the height of the European refugee crisis in 2015, Sweden accepted 10,000 refugees per week. Sweden’s liberal immigration policy is honourable, but it does not come without problems. As social problems increase, Sweden’s far right party, the Sweden Democrats (SD) are gaining territory and will likely be the major winner in the next election.

Sweden has 53 areas defined as particularly vulnerable areas, vulnerable areas, and risk areas. 15 of these areas are particularly vulnerable and are primarily located in the suburbs of Stockholm, Gothenburg, and Malmo. The National Operations Department (NOA), part of the Swedish police, defines particularly vulnerable areas as areas where the safety and security situation is difficult or impossible to control. Attacks against police officers are common, particularly during arrests. The most notable outbreak of violence occurred in 2013 when hundreds of cars and schools were set on fire and police were attacked in Stockholm’s poorer suburbs. Intimidation of witnesses to crimes that could testify in court is common, which undermines the legal system.

NOA also mentions that particularly vulnerable areas in Sweden have parallel society structures, or their own norms, economies, and legal systems. Violence is a regular occurrence and can happen during the day and put innocent bystanders at risk. The level of violence is increasingly deadly, particularly between different criminal constellations. Religious extremism is present in a third of these areas with intolerance against moderate Muslims and individuals travelling to join foreign terrorist groups.

“We got something like that here, we call it “Congress”.” As well as “Judicial Activists”.

My mother was of Scandinavian descent, so I had a big chunk of such folk as relatives. I noticed a tendency towards conformity with the notion of going along to get along, an excessively stolid, long enduring patience, and a point at which abuse could no longer be ignored and they they would go to total war footing. An icey anger, bolstered by the certain knowledge that they had been the party wronged, repeatedly.

I see the dissolution of the Post WWII order, and the idiot ideologies of progressivism, socialism and elitism that created it. Damnation to the NWO.

"YOU can’t unscramble an Egg. Sweden is ruined."

Yup. I'll never be put back together again.

Say Goodbye Sweden.

My son who takes a vacation there every two years for about the last 20 says he has gone there for the last time, last year.

Swedes have largely adopted a posture of passive reliance on govern ment, which they tend to see as a body of people smarter than they are, and who will take care of them. Like parents will take care of children. Many resist anything which rattles this comfortable world view. Government's failure to protect them from savage aliens will have a traumatic effect on the people when it sinks in.
The backlash could be severe.

And so it should be.
Remember Sweden let the Nazis use their railways to occupy Norway. The Swedes are reaping what they've sown.

ALL true.

Amen.
