Swedish synagogue firebombed amid Jerusalem protests

Three people have been arrested for allegedly throwing firebombs at a synagogue in the Swedish city of Goteborg, the second anti-Jewish attack in the Nordic nation in two days. Jewish groups condemned the attacks as “unconscionable” and demanded that authorities take action.

No one was injured in the attack late Saturday during a youth event at the synagogue and the adjacent Jewish center in Sweden’s second-largest city. Goteborg police spokesman Peter Nordengard said Sunday it is being investigated as an attempted arson.

The attack took place after some 200 people rallied late Friday in the southern city of Malmo, yelling anti-Jewish slogans and waving Palestinian flags to protest U.S. President Donald Trump’s decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.

Witness Allan Stutzinsky told the TT news agency he saw a dozen masked youths who threw what appeared to be firebombs into the garden surrounding the synagogue in Goteborg, but they failed to damage the building

Because Swedish Jews have so much influence over Donald Trump's decision-making process.

Must have been Lutherans. Because Islam is a religion of peace.

Any Jew who would live in Europe after the Holocaust is crazy to begin with.

Not to minimize, but the headline implies the synagogue was damaged. It was not.

Swedish Government thought their citizens were living the good life and welcomed some of the Middle Eastern Chaos

Sweden and their unassimulating Muslim refugees will be the death of western civilization across Europe. If they were smart, the Swedes would tit for tat and force the closure of a mosque every time their community vandalizes a church or temple. Then the perps go to jail, and or they and their family members are deported. It would stop if they got serious.

If they were smart, there wouldn’t even be one, small mosque anywhere.

Nice way to cover-up the origin of the perps.

All of the campus crazies, Muslim student associations, BDS nuts and hollyweird lefties keep telling us that opposition to Zionism, the state of Israel and its policies is NOT, I repeat NOT the same as anti-semitism.

That is a lie and it always has been. Incidents like this reveal the truth. Unfortunately, very many Jews in the West believe that if they dissociate themselves from the Zionist movement they will be accepted and left alone.
This is delusional.

I wonder if the Danes still have those yellow armbands they wore during the Nazi occupation. It would be worth rummaging around in the attics. The Swedes might want to borrow them.

And speaking of attics...

Liberals cultivate the holy martyr victimhood complex.

It lets them say they are are more moral than everyone else

They gain moral points with peers by shaming and shunning them for not being loving enough, kind enough, patient enough. Just shut up and take the abuse, don’t you dare cry, that hurts the feelings of the black nagging you about white privilege. Don’t you dare provoke them by defending your views, that’s bad, and it makes you bad. Just stand their stoically taking the abuse while they scream at you, hurt you, abuse you and your family. Just love them in your soul and they’ll magically change, while emulating a behavior no one in their right mind would want to mimic.

This is how you get rape victims in Europe, both men and women, feeling bad for the rapists going to jail or being deported.

Because they say that love and talk is the answer to everything, they refuse to admit there are people who choose evil for logical reasons. It lets them live as if their preferred solutions are the right solutions, though their silent enabling makes things worse.

Don’t slap the man beating his wife to stop him, just pray with her afterward and tend the bruises. Just smooth it all over afterward and we’ll pretend it is fine, so it is fine. Ignore Muslim rape gangs, the poor babies don’t know better, just comfort the victim and don’t go to the police, they won’t take the report because we don’t want to hurt the image of Islam.

Don’t provoke the peaceful Muslims by moving an embassy to Jerusalem. They may kill more people. Don’t admit they’re killing people and justifying it in the mosques. It is your fault for provoking the bully, anyway, they came sooner than they would have otherwise.

Swedes were more than happy to give Hitler iron ore during WWII.

What with all the “death to anything non islamic!” chants prevalent throughout the world, why hasn’t “open season” been declared on these malicious miscreants?

Of course it was by people who have no self control, no sense of peaceful protest & practice violence as easily as some people pour coffee.

I would suspect that with each move that puts the US closer to actually moving the embassy to Jerusalem, this will be the normal behavior in countries across Europe and elsewhere now. Europe pretty much invited the monsters in not giving a fig about protecting their native population. Now the Jews will be paying the cost yet again in Europe and who believes that it won’t happen here also?
