 RetweetOpen Season on Swedish Jews

Tue, Apr 18, 2006 at 3:09:23 pm PDT

The Swedish Chancellor of Justice recently shut down an investigation into the Grand Mosque of Stockholm, and his reason has to be read to be believed: Open season on Swedish Jews.

Earlier this year Swedish Chancellor of Justice Mr Göran Lambertz decided to discontinue his department’s pre-trial investigation into the Grand Mosque of Stockholm, where audio cassettes with highly inflammatory anti-Semitic content were being sold. After Swedish radio programme Dagens Eko unveiled the contents of the cassettes in November 2005, a charge of racial incitement was filed with the police against the Stockholm mosque.

The Swedish Chancellor of Justice responded by closing the pre-trial investigation on the grounds that “the lecture did admittedly feature statements that are highly degrading to Jews (among other things, they are consistently referred to as the brothers of apes and pigs)” but pointing out that such statements “should be judged differently – and therefore be regarded as permissible – because they were used by one side in an ongoing and far-reaching conflict where calls to arms and insults are part of the everyday climate in the rhetoric that surrounds this conflict”.

Well, of course. Islam and Judaism aren't races, so they can't be guilty of racial incitement.

If the Jews of Sweden are part of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict (as the Chancellor implies), then the Muslims of Sweden are culpable for suicide bombings in Israel. If the Chancellor believes the BS he's spewing, then he should charge the Muslims of Sweden as accessories to those crimes.

After all if the bitch is not wearing a burka to a mooslim she's just asking for it and we have to respect that.

but pointing out that such statements “should be judged differently – and therefore be regarded as permissible – because they were used by one side in an ongoing and far-reaching conflict where calls to arms and insults are part of the everyday climate in the rhetoric that surrounds this conflict

What an ass. Ask Victor Klemperer:

"What was the most powerful Hitlerian propaganda tool?" asked Klemperer in LTI: Notizbuch eines Philologen (The Language of the Third Reich (trans. Martin Brady, 2000). "Was it the individual speeches of Hitler and Goebbels ... their rabble-rousing against the Jews, against Bolshevism? ... Certainly not ... Nazism permeated the flesh and blood of the people through single words, idioms and sentence structures which were imposed on them in a million repetitions and taken on board mechanically and unconsciously ... Words can be like tiny doses of arsenic: they are swallowed unnoticed, appear to have no effect, and then after a little time the toxic reaction sets in after all."

Will the Swedish Chancellor of Justice tolerate Muslims being called "asses", "animals" or "Paleswinians" by Israelis? Will he deem death threats to Muslims permissible to everyday climate surrounding this conflict? He accepts the words of these people, and thus he accepts what they are saying.

Well maybe the Swedish MOJ has a point...hypothetically lets say Swedish Jews did something ,like um publish cartoons of Mohammed, for instance...

If one knew no better, on would surely think this was satirical. Ten years ago my jaw would have hit the floor upon reading such garbage. Now, it seems to be a daily occurance. I cannot for the life of me reconcile what these idiots feel they have to gain through capitulation and cowardly submission to evil.

In Sweden, there isn't just open season on Jews, but on young women, both Muslim and non-Muslim, native Swedish children in areas with many Muslim immigrants etc. All of this happens in a year where Swedes have national elections, yet there is no genuine debate about immigration. The political elite, which includes the media, have decided that Sweden should remain a beacon of Multiculturalism, demonizing neighboring Denmark for xenophobia.

Sweden is a semi-totalitarian country, not a functioning democracy.

Bush death threat tied to PU student

By Danielle Braff
Post-Tribune staff writer

A Purdue University graduate student was arrested and charged with threatening to kill President George W. Bush, Laura Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld.

...

In the various messages posted, Buddhi urged the Web site’s readers to bomb the United States and for them to rape American and British women and mutilate them, according to court documents. Other messages called for the killing of all Republicans.

26 Blitz  Tue, Apr 18, 2006 1:29:28pm

By that logic, it's OK for the Klan to burn crosses and hurl racial epithets at blacks and Jews (and whoever else they hate), it's ok for Nazis to call for the extermination of Jews, it's ok ... well, you get the iea ... if they've been doing it for a while it's OK ...

Anyway, watch for Sweden to not prosecute bus bombings ... so long as the victims are Jews ... because such actions “should be judged differently – and therefore be regarded as permissible – because they were used by one side in an ongoing and far-reaching conflict where bombings and mass murder are part of the everyday actions that surrounds this conflict”.

Upon hearing the Chancellor of Justice's remarks thousands of Klu Klux Klan members emmigrated to Sweden.

Calling a Black man a "n***" is permissable because the insult is used by one side in an ongoing and far reaching conflict where cross burnings and lynchings are part of the everyday climate.


Time for Jews and other sane Swedes to get out.

36 J. Lichty  Tue, Apr 18, 2006 1:33:14pm

I am no longer surprised, and simply take these actions by Europeans as the fist sign of what befell us before.

This quote would be right at home in the books "1984* and "Animal farm". Every year the liberal socialists try to outdo each other with the most asinine contortions of logic to justify their insane multi-culturalistic politics that demand equal respect of every culture even when the other culture is based on intolerence, disrespect and intimidation of all other cultures. Europe will go with a whimper, not a bang. Then the Islamists will have access to all the nukes and delivery systems of France and the UK. Oh joy! So this means the US will have to commit forces to the upcoming European downfall just to secure their nuclear weapons.

49 louis  Tue, Apr 18, 2006 1:38:33pm

It seems to me it takes at least two parties to be engaged in a conflict, therefore if the Jews use derogatory language in describing Muslims do you think the Swedes will tolerate it? No, I don't think so, either. What nonsense. It is this type of fuzzy thinking coupled with cowardice that will be the undoing of the West.

And let's not "discuss", mkay? It's pointless given the situation.

The 16,000 Jews of Sweden [plus one Fjordman!] should be relatively easy to rescue. It's France's 1/2 million Jews I really worry about. After 60+ years Europe is about to get her just desserts, as far as I am - and many of my living and dead family members are - concerned. Let's just get the Jews out and then I'll be happy to sit back with a bowl of popcorn.

Here we have proof positive of impending Sweedish dhimmitude. This makes these events all the more scary.

Of course, we have our own dhimmis in the US Congress. They go by the label "Democrat," and they don't want us to use Israeli bullets to kill Muslim terrorists because that might offend them!

So let's start selling a set of tapes in local churches and synagogues in Stockholm advocating the elimination of those "dirty Arabs" or "[bigoted word]s" or "sand n---ers" (or whatever the equivalent in Swedish is) and see how long it's allowed to continue. Maybe some Meir Kahane tapes to start the ball rolling?

After all, such language is merely a part of a long-standing conflict, between Crusaders and Infidels, or between Jews and Muslims!

Wallenberg is famous because he was the exception.

Sweden made a good living from its much-touted 'neutrality' by being the major supplier of iron ore to Nazi Germany in WW2. They also, of course, in their virtuous neutrality, could not bring themselves to declare which side they supported during the Cold War, either.

70 tigger2005  Tue, Apr 18, 2006 1:50:28pm

To put this in perspective:

Let's say we have incitement laws in the U.S. Then let's say Germany and France are engaged in a vicious border war, and people of German descent in the U.S. get together in bars and scream for the death of all people of French descent in the U.S.

This would be OK, because after all German and French people in another country are at war with each other.

In other words, it's fine if the conflict spreads! We must do NOTHING to stop the smooth and rapid dessemination of hatred and violence!

I have to do adult-type things for awhile, but before I do, I'm remembering something I read last week and I can't remember where.

A man was writing about the vacation he and his wife took in Europe recently. They were very excited because they managed to get tickets to the opera in Vienna.

The opera was glorious, but the audience seemed rather flat. He commented to his wife about that afterwards and she didn't miss a beat.

"Easy. No Jews".

76 gfinoaktown  Tue, Apr 18, 2006 1:51:38pm

...YES, and in the spirit of Swedish understanding and in light of the fact that this kind of language is part and parcel of the rhetoric that has traditionally accompanied the dialog between Nazis and Jews, let me take this opportunity to address the Chancellor of Justice in a manner that should be judged differently: Fuck off and die you pig-sucking, toe-headed, blue-eyed Satan and spawn of manufacturers of oil-leaking Saabs! Swedes hump reindeer, but are too stupid to notice.

(no, I don't really think that way. but in this conflict, insults come with the territory...just like the chancellor said)

#79 Happy Viking,

After what they are going through right now (unless they "don't get it", which unfortunately, is entirely possible) you can safely assume that quite a few of them will "vote the right way".

Seams to me, if we look at the evidence that keeps piling up, we can see that socialists realy are fascists at heart.

Socialism, as is the case with fascism requires a scapegoat to seemingly render the fallacy legitimate. Modern history supports this notion, at every intellectual junction. They truly are birds of a feather.

Lambertz okays closing two websites with Mo toons:

UD and Säpo cleared over website closure

Published: 24th March 2006 19:15 CET

Neither the Foreign Office (UD) nor the security police (Säpo) broke censorship laws when Sverigedemokraterna's website was shut down for publishing the contraversial Muhammad cartoons.

But the Chancellor of Justice appears to have questioned UD's actions. Chancellor Göran Lambertz sees no reason to criticise UD or Säpo concerning the events which led to the closing down of Sverigedemokraterna's website. No public servant contravened the constitution regarding freedom of speech.

I'm afraid that the New World Order and the Aryans are getting their "Final Solution". The Jews of Europe would do well to wake up and make their fast exit. I'm sure we in America and Israel will have a bountiful home for them. One thing is for certain: there is true freedom for Jews here, as there may not be in Europe soon.

I like that suggestion of selling anti-Islamic rah-rah tapes at the Lutheran churches across Sweden, and waiting to see how long it is before all of Islam (never mind the gub'mint) rises up in collective offense. It would be prophetic, of course.

Teenagers held for gang rape
Published: 18th April 2006 20:10 CET

Three young men aged 16 to 19 have been taken into police custody again on suspicion of raping two young women in Malmö a month ago.

The women are said to have been victims of extremely serious sexual assaults. They said their attackers were a gang of teenage boys.

As well as the three now in custody, a fourth boy will face court proceedings on Wednesday. A fifth, aged 17, is also thought to have been involved.

All five are suspected of rape 'with probable cause'.

No mention of ethnicity though. Could be those galloping Bahai, or swarthy Amish.

Chavez also recently said the National Guard has even enlisted an army of 500 Indians to defend the country with poison-tipped arrows. He added: "If they had to take a good shot at any invader, you'd be done for in 30 seconds, my dear gringo."

Agreed, but the friggin' problem is that how does one toss out the neo-welfaristarians of Europe, the muslims? As stated before, there are millions. Many have citizenship. This would be something similar to the rigamarole which ocurred between India and Pakistan following independence. Well, almost.
The Jews have been in Europe since Roman times. Like you, I am irate that the answer is suggested that it should be the Jews who leave, and not the muslim invader barbarians.

You may recall Sweden is also the country that hosted an art exhibit celebrating Palestinian jihad-genocide.

Israel's ambassador, Zvi Mazel, lost his cool and vandalized the exhibit.

Less well known is that Sweden had promised the Israelis that the exhibition would not contain any art re: the Israeli-Palestinian conflict; this was apparently a setup to embarass the Israeli ambassador.

IIRC, Mr. Pol said that when he left France they* were offering to get the Jews who wanted to leave out of there. Most, of course, preferred to stay. Some agreed to be trained in firearms and self-defence. And those that took neither offer were told, "Okay then. You're on your own."

But I have a problem with this, "You're on your own." stuff. BIG problem. And yes, it is MY problem.

I think the Pope should have a HUGE MASS and the purpose would be to pray for the welfare of Christianity around the world and the welfare of Europe. Put it right out there with the imprimature of the Vatican.

The heads of state (the ones that matter-the EU and the Coalition countries) would have to be alerted and any of their concerns taken into consideration, but as a 'declaration of intent' or whatever you want to call it. Throwing down the gauntlet of Christianity and refusal to be swallowed, the Pope is the logical choice as the head of the CHURCH! Britain's CofE has become too diluted and the Druid Archbishop is a buffoon and therefore irrelevant.

HOWEVER! The Churches will have to be alerted and a more robust attitude taken within the churches themselves toward defeating Islam's threat and toward how it's done (the wars not only in Iraq but the one Israel's been fighting all alone all this time). The clerics must be forced to get behind this or it won't work. They are the troops on the front lines within each community across the world. The Muslims are using their clerics--we can use ours.

The Philadelphia Story (the version with Kate) is still may favourite. Grace Kelly was good too but hers was a muscial (sort of) anyway. I've recently invested in a smaller LCD tv and I LUV it! Faaar better than the big one. The images are as clear as a photograph. I couldn't stop watching it when I first got it. It's not HD but I don't think I'll bother with that when it comes. This couldn't be clearer. But the bonus is the small size. They are phasing out the 13" size but it's perfect on a desk or kitchen counter. Since it's LCD it's slim with a little backrest like a photograph holder. I'm going to sell the big clunker I got just a few months ago. It's like pushing a truck around to get the vacuum behind it and I have only so much get up and go in one cleaning session (or I'm gone, if ya know what I mean)!

What brought that up is that oddly enough, B&W movies look fantastic on the digital screen. They come out very true to life; as if you were looking at an old photograph of your parents and suddenly they move. It's uncanny. You have to see a film in B&W on the LCD to see what I mean. So I'm checking out movie sites with the old classics, like WNED Buffalo and TVO 2 (TVOntario) that have 'classics' nights.

I just had an idea; Jim Carrey could do a remake of 'Arsenic and Old Lace'. He is double-jointed the way Cary was and has the right comic ability to get the 'terrified bookkeeper trying to save his aunties' look. Because we don't have any great comic romantic leads anymore, though they keep trying to foist the likes of Alec Baldwin on us, Jim's got that 'everyman' look but the comic timing and if they ever remake that it'd be a blast. But they'd have to do it right. The aunties have to be ditherers...the sort of adorable feeblemindedness we saw in Alex Guinness' "The Ladykillers".

Yes I do get TBS and I've watched some good films on there too. I'm developing an appreciation for the oldies again. I never used to like seeing a film twice but the crap that they make now isn't worth sitting through the first time and I've turned to the classics.

Meir Kahane, prophet
born 1932 - murdered 1990

Above all, it is not decency or goodness of gentleness that impresses the Middle East, but strength.
Meir Kahane

And I am afraid, for the first time, that we are in the hands of people so blind and so mad and so un-Jewish that we may not be able, G-d forbid, to avert the catastrophe.
Meir Kahane

But the Jew is not a cripple. G-d made him with two legs, and the authentic healthy Jew walks on both of them.
Meir Kahane

I know that elections must be limited only to those who understand that the Arabs are the deadly enemy of the Jewish state, who would bring on us a slow Auschwitz - not with gas, but with knives and hatchets.
Meir Kahane

I see all this and know that if we are to save the Jewish state and its three-and-a-half million Jews from terrible horrors, we must rise up and demand a fundamental change in the very system of government.
Meir Kahane

If we ever hope to rid the world of the political AIDS of our time, terrorism, the rule must be clear: One does not deal with terrorists; one does not bargain with terrorists; one kills terrorists.
Meir Kahane

Let us not suffer from a national amnesia that causes us to forget who and what we are.
Meir Kahane

Love has its place, as does hate. Peace has its place, as does war. Mercy has its place, as do cruelty and revenge.
Meir Kahane

Never, ever deal with terrorists. Hunt them down and, more important, mercilessly punish those states and groups that fund, arm, support, or simply allow their territories to be used by the terrorists with impunity.
Meir Kahane

The end of the great era of man's wandering and stumbling through life in search of meaning and truth is drawing to a close and the drama of Jewish history with its crescendos of persecution and heroism, its drama and pathos, its kaleidoscopic wandering and journeying, is coming to an end.
Meir Kahane

The Jew is upset because the nations of the world - the United Nations - lash him, brand him as racist and evil, hate him and openly demonstrate their desire to destroy him.
Meir Kahane

There is nothing that they can do to smite a Jewish nation that believes in the G-d of History.
Meir Kahane

This is the real struggle - the war of ideas, of values, of civilization.
Meir Kahane

I also do not see them turning their back on those that did not want to emigrate earlier but later changed their minds due to the deteriorating situation in Euro-land.

I really do wish them luck and hope that things on the ground over there are not as bad as they may seem to us over here, but beyond that, we are severely limited to do much else.

#135 Little Old Lady,

It is our problem. All of us.

There is a line of thought here and elsewhere that goes something like, "Europe is doomed. Ain't it great to be an American?"

Sorry to those ready to write off a continent, but that won't work. Eurabia is a state of mind, not a permanent state of being. American ideals and constitutional freedoms were born in the soil of European secular Enlightenment thought, as well as in the Judeo-Christian ethic and the sun of Greece. I'm not prepared to give an inch.

No Jew, no Jute, no villager at the foot of the Jungfrau should have to move or duck or hide because of the barbarian invasion.

I still think the matter could be most satisfactorily addressed by applying the principle of reciprocity in all things.

You want to build a mosque in Jutland? Let us build a synagogue and a church in the Hijaz!

On a side note, I have a close friend who is talking about upping sticks and moving his family to Saudi. He has a wife and two young children. I think he's lost his mind and could lose a great deal more than that.

If Israel was at peace, Israel would be more like EUrope (read Blue State). Israel is being ripped apart and still is divided on where to go next.

EUrope is not divided at all. Chirac's goal of a unified latrine will continue to flow.

Why are American and Israeli citizens still divided?

I have no idea. My only thought is that we (read so many) are stupid. That we (far to many) do not deserve the freedom and opportunity dumped on us.

Racial incitement and racial hatred and incitement to murder are not good -- unless they are used against the Jews, is what he is saying.

This is a return to normal of Europe's millenial hostility against the Jews. After the Holocaust, there was a shock throughout Europe concerning what had happened. Those in that generation following the Holocaust have died out, and the period of remission of anti-semitism has ended.

If this was happening 10 years ago, or even 5 years ago, I would tend to agree with you.

But this is happening all over Europe with more and more regularity. Ethnic Europeans will not stand up for their liberties and freedom. European elites shove multiculturalism down the throats of the populace, and nobody is standing up for their rights...let alone their countries.

Ethnic Europeans have no pride in their cultures anymore. They have no religious values whatsoever. They have become spineless little wimps that will not stand up to the Islamic onslaught.

I wish it wasn't so. I wish they would grow some balls and stand up for what is right.
But they won't!

And as long as they do nothing but capitulate, I have no choice but to call for my Jewish brothers and sisters to get the f--k out of there.
I'm sorry it's come to this, but I'd rather save their lives than have them fight for a cause that ethnic Europeans won't even fight for.

Mr Swedish Chancellor, Jews do not expect to be unpunished for making such comments about Muslims. I have not heard anyone make a call to arms. Whereas I am privvy to allo sorts of irresponsible comments, I have never heard racism from a Jewish pulpit. These incendiary comments come strictly from Muslim pulpits, directed primarily against Jews and Zionists but also against America, the west and even your own country. To suggest that these comments are permissible in the context of Middle East conflicts you are a liar or a fool.

When asked about conservative Swedish websites that were shut down over the "Draw Mohammed" contest, Goran Lambertz had this to say..

Government authorities must in every meaningful way refrain from attempts to influence the editorial decisions of media protected by the provisions of the constitution. "Such attempts may only be made if there are very strong reasons," writes Lambertz. Legitimate reasons can be risk to human life or extraordinarily large sums of money, he writes, and not even then can such pressure be applied which amounts to preventing publication.

UD civil servant, Stefan Amér, acted following discussions with foreign secretary, Laila Freivalds, and is therefore beyond blame. Freivalds, who resigned over the affair on Tuesday, is considered responsible according to the Chancellor of Justice.

On 10th January this year, Sverigedemokraterna, one of Sweden's extreme right wing parties, announced a competition in their newspaper SD-kuriren. The paper called for drawings showing what the prophet Muhammad looked like. The first drawing was published on 3rd February, at the height of the controversy surrounding the cartoons published by Jyllands-Posten in Denmark.

The same day, the web hotel Levonline closed the paper's website after being contacted by UD and Säpo.

Legitimate reasons can be risk to human life or extraordinarily large sums of money. HuH? "Kill the Jews!" doesn't constitute risk of human life? and just how much money is an "extraordinarily large" amount? Are there journalists in Sweden who ask questions? Those are a couple I'd like to ask him.

Another quote from Lambertz found from searching his name..

Göran Lambertz is the Swedish chancellor of justice in Sweden. One of his tasks is to monitor civil rights in the country. He sent a note to the Riksdag stated that a pastor delivering a sermon in church who stated that homosexual behavior was sinful "might" be considered as having committed a criminal act under this bill. He subsequently told Christianity Today magazine that the bill focused on "dangerous Nazi campaigning," and not on Christian speech. But he stated that: "The same rules apply everywhere, and I am sure there will be court cases defining [hate speech] also in the religious context."

Here's the link
So.. he's all gung-ho to prosecute hate-speech in a religious context, but not in an Islamic context. Ya got that Muslims? Lambertz is saying that Islam is not a religion. He's dissing Mohammed. Where's the protest?

212 Dom  Tue, Apr 18, 2006 4:17:01pm

You and some other posters have been interpreting the comment to mean that calls to arms and insults are part of Arab culture. What he is specifically claiming is calls to arms and insults are part of both Arab culture and Jewish culture.

A syllogism:

Luther was a great anti-Semite in his time.

Sweden is a nominally Lutheran country.

Ergo, Swedish anti-Semitism is no surprise.

Discuss.

Luther was at first sympathetic to the Jews saying that he could understant why the Jews would reject Catholic Christianity. Problems arose when the Jews rejected Lutheranism too and he went off the deep end into VERY nasty ranting against the Jews which the Nazis would use centuries later. Luther had a BAD anger problem and he apparently forgot the verse where G_d tells the Jews "I will bless him who blesses you and curse him who curses you"

IIRC Luther died shortly after penning his anti-semitic screed. Could be coincidence or ...

Iran will be an important test for Europe. Ahmadenijad may think jihad can be smoothed over with a few smart oil deals. America is in no position for that but Europe may be, and powerful European partners would obviously be a great boost to Iran's strategy and overall credibility. All Iran wants is some time to get its arsenal into gear while the world turns a blind eye. Would Europe sell out to an Iranian Armageddon? I guess that depends whether Ahmadenijad's cute calls to arms and insults can be overlooked as just part of the everyday climate in the rhetoric that surrounds this conflict.

Hey, and I deal with that every year in my AP Euro class. What I loathed was when I looked for a copy of his screed, and found it on several "white power" sites.
There has been debate about this for years. Essentially, the Euro consensus appears to be that his antisemitism is more of the old-fashioned type. Therefore, it follows that it was not in the same vein as Hitler's rant.
At least, this is what is is said.
BTW, I stick to the Virtual Jewish Library site for historical documents dealing with this issue.

The remarkable thing is that the statement in support of antisemitism comes from the highest elite in Sweden, from the Swedish Chancellor of Justice, who is supposed to investigate and prosecute just such ethnic incitement.

What is the reason for this?

Here is a possible clue. It pertains to the political elites of Europe generally, and Sweden is certainly part of Europe. This is a statement by Glenn Reynolds, Instapundit:

"Europe, except maybe Germany to some degree, is in the hands of a political class that is morally leprous, intellectually bankrupt, and financially corrupt. Antisemitism seems to come naturally to such people."

Surely the Swedes will have to do it for themselves, that's what I meant by "we" - i.e. each place will have to deal with it locally. But it can be dealt with. No death camps necessary, despite what the hysterical Left says every time a white European starts talking about protecting his culture.

#226 noman - yes, that's an accurate summation.

Throughout history there have been these types who thought they could offer the Jews something new and better, then got angry when they insisted on sticking to the God of Moses.

In fact, that's something Luther and Mahomet had in common.

I think it was over the weekend - I had one of those days ploome is having now - run away and hide - please make it all go away - and when I get like that it goes like this

- I want Tehran taken out TONITE

- I want the world in mute shock over what we did

- I don't want to hear another fucking word out of these people for like 50 yrs

- and then I want to do it all over again just to prove the point.

Over the top, I know. And altho' I don't think we can 'do' Iran at the moment, I have absolutely no doubts that diplomacy is cast in the part of the EUnich at a gang bang. And I am not persuaded that converting Tehran into a glass parking lot wouldn't just accomplish some serious attitude readjustment.

Saying just sayin' doesn't make the suggestion any more palatable. I am for speedy action against Iran. Proposing nuclear action will undoubtedly complicate that effort. If action isn't taken ASAP there may come a time when yours is the only option but I believe that Iran's nuclear intentions could be arrested right now using the armies to either side.

"Bigel was right about the EU and the French."

Really? How much time, researsh and validity has bigel spent in the EU to make such a broad stroked conclusion that it should be pacified with nukes?

"Too bad he didn't limit his observations to the leadership of Europe instead of the continent as a whole."

You're wrong. His observations did include the whole continent. He even chastized those european posters here who "slightly objected" to his premise. He was a prime example of becoming what you hate the most.

"Like most people who go out on a limb, they fall off sometimes."

If going out on a limb means condeming millions to death for which they did not deserve, then I prefer they fall off and their memories never resurrected. Alas, that seems not be.

There used to be posters at LGF who served in the IDF, who may have accomodated bigel, but refuted him with his grandiose visions of blood letting. The unintentional consequences were never an after thought with him, but those who experienced the role as a soldier were more adverse to his "nuke them all" quatsch.

"Europe, except maybe Germany to some degree, is in the hands of a political class that is morally leprous, intellectually bankrupt, and financially corrupt. Antisemitism seems to come naturally to such people."

So nothing has really ever changed. And I wouldn't be so quick to let Germany off the hook.

When I moved to Europe four years ago, I became a little wiser. I recall
someone saying to me about an Aspen program whether we had "too many Jewish
names" as speakers. Shortly after I arrived in Germany I gave a speech in
Frankfurt, where a prominent businessman asked me during the coffee break
whether it was "the Jews" who were pushing the U.S. to invade Iraq.

Here is a better link to what I posted about in 211.

Lambertz told Christianity Today that the legislation is concerned with "dangerous Nazi campaigning," not with Christianity. But, he added, "The same rules apply everywhere, and I am sure there will be court cases defining [hate speech] also in the religious context."

Yet this bit here involves the current situation about the Muslim hate speech in Swedish Mosques.

Yet the Chancellor of Justice opines that owing to the Middle East conflict, “such expressions, despite their content, cannot be regarded as racial incitement according to Swedish law”. One might indeed wonder how the phrase “kill the Jews” needs to be expressed in order to be regarded as sufficient incitement to kill Jews, according to the Chancellor, who finds nothing inflammatory in the statement.

So he is opposed to "dangerous Nazi campaigning", but somehow in his corrupt line of thinking, "kill the Jews" doesn't rise to that level. Taken together, its clear that Lambertz is a pathetic snivelling, double-talker devoid of any principles or ethics. He is a sorry piece of scum that should be tossed out with the trash.

When I read the Koran from back cover to front, I had this revelation which seems to have escaped most Muslims...it's a freakin' jihadist cookbook.

Unlike the Bible in which Y*H*W*H instructs the children of Israel to possess the land and defend themselves from particularly pagan and bestial cultures - and it is generally understood by modern Jews and Christians alike these were commands given to the Jews specifically and uniquely in relation to those people which no longer exist today - not so the great masses of Muslims who still believe every Koranic command is in effect today.

The Muslims in general, and particularly the jihadists, lack total historical nuance. Islam is no more a religion of peace today than it was when it was hammered into existence by Mohammed back in the eighth century. Anyone who knows real history knows Mohammed was a military leader, a murderer, a raider of caravans, a plunderer, a pedophile (Aisha) and a serial deceiver. And his credentials are...?

We should not be talking about Jews running from everywhere. If we do not fight, we all, Jews, Christian, and other infidels will have to run to WHERE?

There is absolutely NO REASON any Jew should (have to) leave Sweden.

That is complete Bull... I understand the thought...but JEWS MUST LEARN NOT TO RUN!

Are Arab/Muslims really that strong that they can chanse the pathetic Jews out of their homes? F NO!

Its just that the Muslims ACT! I would hate to advocate barbarism or violence...but it WORKS!

One prints a cartoon about Mo & the Arab/Muslims RIOT... the "World" freaks out & capitulates... we are still feeling the wake of thier violence...its because of the Muslim violence that the Jews are made victim. Like "Borders" the "world powers" are scared...!

However, kick Jews around all you want, shoot even kick them out of their homes... We all know those stupid Jews won't fight back! THEY (WE) HAVE LEARNED NOTHING FROM WW2.

I hate to blame the victim...as the Jews have done actually NOTHING to deserve this type of treatment...BUT WE (JEWS) MUST LEARN THAT ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.

Was it not a Jew: Hillel: that said "If I am not for myself...who will be for me" ?

F'N STAND UP FOR YOURSELF JEWS! FIGHT! AM YISROEL CHAI! BE MACCABEES! REMEMBER KING DAVID! HAVE PRIDE & HONOR IN YOURSELF FOR G-D'S SAKE!

I pray not for a world where the "other" no longer tries to victimise us (Jews) [as it will never happen] but one where Jews no longer take it & will stand up for ourselves!

It is only then that they will stop & we can live in peace because of our pride!

This is not just bluster or ranting but an open, heartfelt call to every JEW who reads this! It through our action, thoughts & speech that our lives will be bettered! It doesn't happen around us...but because of us.

Buy a gun, learn to shoot, have PRIDE, have Self-Respect!...get an education, stand up for yourself...& above all...be a JEW...a Jew of Pride, Compassion, & STRENGTH!

It is us that ensures our future!

W-lover, Jewnami and others,

Don't forget all of Bat-Ye'or's books:
The Dhimmis
The Decline of Eastern Christianity Under Islam
Islam and Dhimmitude
Eurabia (I haven't read this one yet)

Also, if you want the "straight from the horse's [nether regions]" account of Muhammad (what is it they say after his name? oh yeah: *spit*), get a copy of A. Guillaume's The Life of Muhammad: A translation of Ibn Ishaq's Sirat Rasul Allah. It's just a translation of THE standard/orthodox biography on Muhammad (*spit*) in the Muslim world. The whole thing is an endless account of executions, battles, rape, and so on. It confirms every exception to the phrase "Religion of Peace." It is THEIR standard biography of the man, in all its bloody glory. It's not easy reading either, any more than Bat Ye'or's Dhimmis and Decline... books (which both took me a while to finish because they are just so depressing).

I remember back then thinking Kahane was such a nutjob too, but was still a bit sad when those monsters killed him. Of course, after 2000, and seeing the way Israel responded to this new Intifadeh, I started remembering, too.

He came to visit my school way back when, and some Arab student started ranting. Kahane called him a "dog" and boy, were people upset! These days, that's mild.

I'm starting to see European dhimmitude less as grovelling capitulation to evil and more as evil in and of itself. Effete leftists like the Swedish Chancellor of "Justice" may be afraid, but they're not afraid of muslims; they're afraid of the LLL losing power, and they're prepared to do ANYTHING, no matter how amoral, no matter how undemocratic, to hang onto it. Turning a blind eye to rape, murder, and "no go zones" for the police; censoring the press; declaring "opens season" on Jews, as here; handing out generous welfare cheques to unemployed and unemployable muslim yoof; demonising any country that dares to do things differently; it's all good, so long as it keeps the Swedish public thinking that there is no alternative to Socialist Moonbatism. Let any sort of debate take place, and people might start asking whether the ruling party is doing such a great job on immigration. They might even (GASP) vote for a non-LLL party!

I'm not saying all 'bats are evil; probably a majority of them are "Moonbats lite" (I was one once, and I thought Sweden was freakin' great then... sob) who really DO "just want everybody to get along" and turn a blind eye to Islamist excesses out of wishful thinking, not malice. But there are also plenty of "Moonbats 4 Life" who support Islamists with their eyes wide open.

Hey, and I deal with that every year in my AP Euro class.

>>Please, What is AP Euro?


What I loathed was when I looked for a copy of his screed, and found it on several "white power" sites.
There has been debate about this for years. Essentially, the Euro consensus appears to be that his antisemitism is more of the old-fashioned type. Therefore, it follows that it was not in the same vein as Hitler's rant.
At least, this is what is is said.

BTW, I stick to the Virtual Jewish Library site for historical documents dealing with this issue.

>> Thanks for the reference.

I agree. Luther and the Inquistion wanted to convert the Jews more than kill them. Not that this excuses their violence used in trying to do so.

Hitler was out for extermination based on your ancestry, something you could not control: infinitely more evil. Even as rabid a German patriot as the chemist Fritz Haber was unacceptable. In World War I Haber devised the means to make explosives and fertilizer from the nitrogen in the air to assist the war effort in addition to directing gas warfare against Germany's enemies. He still had to flee, ironically to England, to escape Hitler's Nazis.

Even under the "old" style of anti-semitism, prejudice often remained: Old Christian vs. New Christians (converts) in Spain is an example. In Iraq today Jews who have converted to Islam are still considered Jews: now tolerated as Muslims but still Jews.

To overcome this prejudice, true converts would sometimes turn fanatic and could become the Jews worst enemies such as Pfefferkorn the convert who called for Jewish persecution in debates against Catholic clergy who opposed the persecution. IIRC Torquemanda was of Jewish ancestry and some of Iran's mullah hierarchy is Jewish: Rasanjani(sp), formerly a family pistacio merchants, now corrupt theocrat.

Diplomacy will take care of everything. The Islamofacists are so amenable to diplomacy too! We have dealt with opressive threats before, and won! The "My God is the State" crowd isn't succesfully erasing our Judeo-Christian heritiage in this land and paving the way for the Sons of Ishmael to lift their swords right over our quivering necks!
We should immediately cease to recognize the end of the world as it comes hurtling towards us at the speed of Nuclear Allah, because we are all nutjobs. We should shut up already.

There is NO chance for the utter destruction of America or Europe. Those who see impending disasters brewing everywhere are all insane, unreasonable, shameful, moronic, vitriolic, kill-em-all annihilation-minded lunatics.

Affluenza: When the comfortable people sit in their nice chairs at their nice computers and their nice TV's in their nice warm homes with their Hagen Daas and a good book and say "It can never happen to me"...

what are people in Germany, or the German government doing to assuage the fears of German or European Jews?

They're doing a lot, but not enough I fear.

but why do you want to assure Jews that you speack for the MAJORITY in Europe

I have not said this. We're mixing things here a bit. What I said was that I'm tired of the annihilation crowd who proclaim that nuking Europe would actually make sense (do I really have to say that...). I'm very concerned about Europe. Antisemitism is still strong in many Europeans, though it's being fought fiercely as well.

ask theat poost Jew who was tortured and murdered in Paris?

how many millions of EUROPEANS did you see demonstrating?

Not millions (probably because most don't even know this hideous crime happened), but tens of thousands.

Look, I'm not a L³, though some may call me one because I think Europe shouldn't be nuked. The US will need Europe in this fight, not because of military power, but because Europe can still help in many ways. We'll win this together.

On Raoul Wallenberg --

The Swedish government sold him out to the Soviets.

It told its ambassador in Moscow to ask Stalin what happened to Wallenberg. The ambassador was to hint that the Swedish government would be "satisfied" if Stalin said "I don't know".

So Stalin said, "I don't know" and that satisfied the Swedish government. It never bothered about Wallenberg again. Reportedly, Wallenberg's own brothers were not eager to help him, though a sister remained loyal to him.

It is no recommendation for a nation when its own sovereign cannot endure it. Queen Christina, who inherited the throne late in the 17th century, found both her realm and her subjects so insufferably dull and boring that she abdicated the throne and went to live in Rome.

At Nuremberg, the Nazis made it clear that there are two categories of people living in Germany: the regular people, and the Jews. And the Jews were defined as second class, with restrictions against them.

Now the Swedish Chancellor of Justice has made it clear that the ethnic hate laws that are on the books in Sweden are to divide the ethnic groups into at least two groups: Muslims are in the privileged group, which receive the protection of these laws; Jews, on the other hand, are in a second-class category, unprotected by these laws.

Muslims have the protection of the anti-incitement anti-hate laws; Jews do not -- according to the Swedish Chancellor of Justice. Singling out the Jews for being second-class reminds me of the Nuremberg laws which singled out Jews in a different way. Privileging th

re #310
Privileging the Muslims may be the result of a fear of Muslims, a kind of self-dhimmitization that is happening. Or taking away the protection of the law from the Jews may be the result of the millenial European anti-semitism. Don't really know which is the stronger factor: the spinelessness seeking to appease the Muslim haters of the Jews, or just anti-semitism inherent in Europe.

"morally leprous, intellectually bankrupt, and financially corrupt" is how Glen Reynolds (Instapundit) characterizes much of Europe's ruling class (with some exceptions for Germany)
[Link: instapundit.com...]

Reynolds notes that this makes them prone to antisemitism.

I think that this also explains some of their spinelessness in the face of challenges by political Islam.

Regardless of whether it is spinelessness or anti-semitism that is behind the statements and actions of the Swedish Chancellor of Justice, the characterization of much of Europe's ruling class as "morally leprous, intellectually bankrupt, and financially corrupt" goes a long way to explain the strange behavior that we see.

Of course the UN wasn't always as slow to act as now. :-(

MYTH

“The United States was the only nation that criticized the Arab attack on Israel.”

FACT

The United States, the Soviet Union and most other states recognized Israel soon after it declared independence on May 14, 1948, and immediately indicted the Arabs for their aggression. The United States urged a resolution charging the Arabs with breach of the peace.

Soviet delegate Andrei Gromyko told the Security Council, May 29, 1948:

This is not the first time that the Arab states, which organized the invasion of Palestine, have ignored a decision of the Security Council or of the General Assembly. The USSR delegation deems it essential that the council should state its opinion more clearly and more firmly with regard to this attitude of the Arab states toward decisions of the Security Council.13

On July 15, the Security Council threatened to cite the Arab governments for aggression under the UN Charter. By this time, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) had succeeded in stopping the Arab offensive and the initial phase of the fighting ended.
