Uncontrolled migration plagues Swedish cities because Muslim migrants oppose assimilation
Swedish police in the city of Malmö and in Örebro have in the past week encountered unruly crowds that attacked them with stones and damaged the taxpayers’ property. Sweden’s National Police Chief Jonas Hysing said when he spoke to reporters that 26 police officers and 14 people, including protesters, were injured.
The protesters, mostly immigrants and Muslims from West Asia and North Africa, among others, attacked the police after they claimed that their religious feelings were damaged after the Danish right-wing extremist politician Rasmus Paludan planned Koran burning all over the country.
Angry young people set fire to car tires, rubbish and rubbish bins in the Rosengard district and attacked police, who were then forced to respond by firing tear gas at the crowd, who also threw stones at police.
But Paludan is just an agent provocateur.
Europe is known for its true liberal values that allow freedom of speech and expression to be increasingly threatened by all political parties, and Sweden is no different.
Swedish society, which has stood up for multiculturalism and opposed racism, has also now become aware that there is a certain proportion of migrants in Sweden who are not interested in assimilation and threaten to impose their values on Swedish society.
Paludan’s actions deserve criticism when they were directed at the Muslim population in Sweden who celebrate Ramadan, but it is worth mentioning that the Swedish population is starting to get tired of the “political correctness” attitude that their liberal politicians have taken because they believe it undermines their basic rights.
It has also led to Swedes expressing their opposition to granting asylum to refugees and that those who think it is human to do so now feel that this is an issue that needs to be rethought.
Take the example of Swedish no-go zones, the segregated suburbs where the inhabitants are mostly Muslims and where criminals influence the local community.
The Swedish police officers told the Swedish news agency The Local that threats, stone-throwing or vandalism of their vehicles occur, but also pointed out that there are days when nothing remarkable happens.
What is worth highlighting is that the number of these areas has increased throughout Sweden and in its largest cities such as the capital Stockholm and Malmö. As of 2017, 5,000 criminal and 200 criminal networks in these vulnerable areas or no-go zones were active.
Many Swedes believe that Islamism is a threat to Sweden’s culture of openness and most say that they are not racists and understand that not all migrants are ungrateful for the hospitality they have received.
However, they oppose gender segregation, marriage practice and treatment of women in Islam, which is in sharp contrast to Swedish culture as gender equality.
Ayaan Hirsi Ali, writes for the alternative news agency UnHerd, in his article entitled ‘Sweden’s migrant rape crisis‘also pointed out that liberal commentators in Sweden are uncomfortable pointing out that the increase in violent crimes against women, including rape, is linked to uncontrolled migration because the perpetrators are those born outside Sweden (47.7%) and 34.5% of them were from western Asia and northern Africa.
A research article by Danielle Lee Tomson in Brookings.edu entitled ‘The rise of the Sweden Democrats: Islam, populism and the end of Swedish exceptionalism‘highlights the issue of “only for women” spa and sauna time in Sweden’s cities which has become a hot problem.
Swedish spas and saunas and their swimming pools are of mixed gender, but a local municipality had to “make certain times of the bathhouse” only women “to meet the cultural and religious needs of Muslim women.
Tomson interviewed a woman who chose not to wear any clothes in the sauna for hygienic reasons but who met the anger of a group of Muslim women who opposed her actions. “They said to me in the face: We are not listening to you. We do not care about you. We sit in the sauna with clothes on. And you can not do anything about it, says the interviewer to Tomson.
Incidents and statistics should be handled with caution and a few actions should not be used to stigmatize the whole group or society, but the policy of silence for the sake of political correctness may have led to new challenges for Sweden.
