- In Sweden's
third largest city, Malmö, the children of illegal migrants receive
income support payments from the government, and the unemployment
rate among foreign-born men aged 18-24 years is at 41%. In Sweden,
those who do not have jobs receive generous welfare payments from
the local authorities, and families in the country illegally have
their rent paid by the taxpayers. It is an open invitation to more
migrants to come to Sweden.
- The Swedish
establishment tells Swedes that the more immigrants come to Sweden,
the richer Sweden will become -- no matter which country these
immigrants come from.
- The Swedish
establishment is characterized by incompetence combined with an
extreme left-wing ideology and a hillbilly-like mentality that
refuses to see the rest of the world and the risks involved in it.
The Swedish establishment has not dealt with Sweden as if it were a
country, but as if it were a village.
- By gross
miscalculations, the Swedish establishment has eroded its own
legitimacy. Today, fewer than one in four Swedes have confidence in
their government. Meanwhile, the Swedish media is a major threat to
Sweden's security today: it downplays the migration crisis with
ridiculous arguments.
Tens of thousands of migrants have passed through
Denmark to enter Sweden during 2015 and 2016, attracted by Sweden's
generous welfare payments and free housing.
A major threat to Sweden's security today is the Swedish
journalistic establishment: it downplays the migration crisis with
ridiculous arguments.
As migrants flooded into Sweden in December 2015, Fredrik Virtanen,
a writer for Sweden's largest newspaper, Aftonbladet, wrote an
article entitled, "Have refugees forced you to buy worse red
wine?" It is not really dangerous, Virtanen argues, that that Sweden
was accepting 160,000 migrants; such migratory movements, he wrote, do
not really impact anyone's life.
Today, however, we know that many people's lives have been affected
by the influx of migrants and that the problems are about more than wine.
They are, for example, about sexual assault, the murder of staff in
asylum accommodations and chaos in the Swedish school system. But
Virtanen was right: red wine is still here.

- The new
constitution "will emphasize Islam and faith in Allah." —
Abdulkadir Selvi, pro-government columnist.
- "We are a
Muslim country. That is why we need a religious constitution,"
said Ismail Kahraman, Speaker of Turkey's Parliament. He lamented
that, unlike in other Middle Eastern countries, the word Allah did
not appear in the current version of the Turkish Constitution even
once.
- "The chaos
in the Middle East is the result of politics instrumentalizing
religion." — Kemal Kilicdaroglu, leader of the opposition
Republican People's Party.
- "One
cannot be secular and Muslim at the same time." — Turkish
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
Ismail Kahraman, Speaker of Turkey's Parliament, last
week stated: "We are a Muslim country. That is why we need a
religious constitution."
The Speaker of the Parliament is no ordinary office in Turkey. The
speaker comes second in the state protocol only after the president (and
even before the prime minister). Such is the seat occupied since November
by Ismail Kahraman, an MP from the ruling Justice and Development Party
(AKP) of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
Along with Erdogan, former president Abdullah Gul and eight AKP
heavyweights (mostly cabinet ministers) Kahraman comes from the ranks of
the National Turkish Student Union (MTTB in its Turkish acronym). Another
MTTB bigwig, Huseyin Velioglu, later formed what became the militant
Islamist group, "Turkish Hizbullah." Especially between 1965
and 1980 when a military coup administration dissolved it, the MTTB
operated as the youth organization of Turkish political Islam. Kahraman,
in late 1960s and early 1970s, was MTTB's president.
