No tie in Stockholm

The hope of a Davis Cup tie open to the general public did not last long,I guess the authorities in Stockholm folded under pressure from the Islamists and the extreme left. I have previously posted about this tie.

Stockholm wants to host Davis Cup tie

According to Swedish Channel 4 local authorities in Stockholm now declare their willingness to host a Davis Cup tie between Sweden and Israel which will be open to the public. The Swedish Tennis Federation and the Davis Cup team are of course delighted, and so am I. That would really show the spineless Hamas appeasers in Malmö!

The closed-door Davis Cup Tie

A Davis Cup tie between Sweden and Israel has been closed to spectators by local Swedish authorities. This should come as no surprise for those of you who follow what is going on in Malmö.

For the rest of you, here's a quick run-down:

Malmö, Sweden's third biggest city, has a growing and not so well integrated muslim immigrant population. The city is run by a coalition of political parties consisting of social democrats, former communists, and left-leaning environmentalists.

The social democrats are citing the security risk as the reason for closing the doors to the Sweden Israel Davis Cup Tie, but according to spokespersons for the former communists, with whom the social democrats share power in Malmö, the reason is Israel's alleged human rights violations in Gaza.

According to Sweden's Channel 8, the Malmö police claims it would have no problems guaranteeing the security at the tie (Judging by the fact that they weren't able to protect a pro-Israel demonstration against an angry mob of muslim immigrants and left-wing extremists earlier this year, I would not implicitly trust them.). But if we are assuming that the authorities trust the ability of the police to enforce the law, this only leaves us with one alternative. Apparently the social democrats are speaking with a forked tongue. Behold the strategy that will get the mayor of Malmö, Ilmar Reepalu reelected:

Pandering to Islamists and left-wing extremists who either deny the Holocaust or equate Israel with Hitler's Third Reich. It is a brave new world.

Or maybe Reepalu is just a coward.

Shoe throwing attack in Stockholm

Indeed the Swedish autonomous left is at it again with their Islamist neo-buddies. This time the Israeli ambassador was at the receiving end of what apparently was a planned attack. The attacks on supporters of Israel in particular and on people dissenting with the radical left in general are part of a disturbing trend in Sweden and the rest of Europe. When Islamists murder or attack people, the established news media in Sweden stay silent, even when the attacks take place at home. The political left also does not protest the violence of their autonomous friends, on the contrary they defend it as excusable excesses. The established radical left in Sweden is in a symbiotic relationship with these perpetrators of political violence, just as the basque terrorists of ETA were in cahoots with Herri Batasuna, and IRA was in cahoots with Sinn Fein. This relationship is not exposed because a majority of Swedish journalists belong to the radical left.

Pro-israeli demonstration attacked by mob in Sweden

A pro-Israeli demonstration in Malmö, Sweden on the 25th of January was attacked by a mob consisting mostly of immigrants of Middle-Eastern origin. The counter demonstrators, who did not have a permit, threw eggs and bottles at the peaceful pro-Israeli demonstration. Meanwhile the police stood idly by and instead asked the pro-Israeli demonstrators to leave. This is Sweden 2009. Also in Malmö a few days before the demonstration, a 26-year old homosexual man was murdered. The alleged killers are Islamists of Kosovar extraction.

I wonder when the meeting was where it was decided that we should allow Islamists to come to our country and destroy freedom of speech, because I missed it! Also, if the police has decided that freedom of speech is not worth defending, I might as well stop paying taxes.
