<div class="MsoNormal">
Last week’s <i>Jerusalem Post </i>weekend magazine included
its round-up of European news, compiled by its European correspondent Andreas
Berggren.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><a href="http://www.jpost.com/Magazine/Is-blood-thicker-than-water-372635">Berggren
commented</a> on statements made by Göran Rosenberg, whom he termed a “liberal”,
regarding the right of Jews worldwide to criticize Israel.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We ask “where does one draw the line between
legitimate criticisms and hate speech”?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Who is Mr. Rosenberg? He’s a Swedish author, famous <i>inter
alia</i>, for being the son of Polish Holocaust survivors. He has written and
published a book about his father’s experiences. In an <a href="http://www.rosenberg.se/_artiklar/apartheid.html"><i>Expressen</i> column</a>
dated July 8<sup>th</sup>, Rosenberg terms Israel an “Apartheid State”.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Rosenberg complains that there will be
“different justice” for the perpetrators of the terrorist murders of three
Israeli teens, and the Israeli killers of the young Arab boy who was murdered
in a deranged attack.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>“Different justice
for different people is the definition of apartheid,” Rosenberg states, and
also “separate territories”. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Enemy combatants from the PA do not get the same, hopefully
thorough, due process as Israeli citizens.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>That’s not “apartheid”. The Hamas terrorists are non-Israelis, engaging
in acts of war by targeting and attacking civilians. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That’s a war crime, and so is using your own
citizenry to shield you, something that Hamas does, and which is apparently of little
or no concern to Mr. Rosenberg, as he does not and will not address the issue.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"></span>As for “separate
territories”, this is the worst of Mr. Rosenberg’s canards, and it is code for
rejecting Palestinian autonomy as it is now, preferring not the two-state
solution, but a single, <a href="http://www.jerusalemonline.com/news/politics-and-military/politics/peres-a-binational-state-against-herzl-vision-893">Palestinian
bi-national state</a>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This is the
fantasy of the anti-Israel extremists who salivate to think of the
international community forcing this “merger” on Israel. It would include the
return of the Arabs who fled Israel in 1948 and all of their descendants within
the pre-1967 borders.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>At best, the idea
is to kill the State of Israel demographically, and at worst to totally
eliminate Jews “from the river to the sea”.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
In sync with the bi-national Palestinian fantasy, Mr. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Rosenberg also complains that Israel unfairly
wants the PA to recognize Israel as a Jewish state. How many Islamic countries with
<a href="http://www.raymondibrahim.com/category/muslim-persecution-of-christians/">non-Islamic
minorities</a> style themselves <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islamic_state#mediaviewer/File:Islam_World.svg">specifically
as Islamic</a>—why can’t Israeli citizens have a Jewish state?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Total hypocrisy, especially if you compare
the favorable situation for minorities in Israel and the abject persecution of
minorities in Islamic-majority countries. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Mr. Rosenberg’s critique is not about Israel’s policies—he
is on factual thin ice regarding what actually is happening here. Rather, his
main issue is with the existence of Israel as a Jewish State.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>To add complexity to the situation, he is
touting these opinions in a country where citizens who are identifiably Jewish
are at risk of attack on the streets.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In
other words, he is pouring gas on an already inflamed situation—this was
already the case before the Protective Edge operation broke out, and is even
worse now.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So do Jews have a right to criticize Israel? Mr. Rosenberg
followed his “apartheid” article with one on August 12<sup>th</sup> about the <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="OLE_LINK1"></a><a href="http://www.rosenberg.se/_artiklar/jewhatred.html"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;">power of the State of Israel</span><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;"></span></a>, hoping that neither actual nor
false accusations of anti-Semitism words and deeds will “poison” the criticism
of Israel, as cited in the <i>JPost</i>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>In his opinion, life has never been better for Jews in Europe, except,
perhaps in Hungary and Greece.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It’s very
convenient for Mr. Rosenberg to forget the chaos in the streets of Rosengård
and Rinkeby, and the repeated attacks on Jews and Jewish community sites.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>On August 2<sup>nd</sup>, just ten days
before the Israeli power article was published, anti-Semitic thugs again
targeted Rabbi Kesselman of Malmö, and succeeded in breaking three synagogue
windows.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
There was nothing new in this kind of attack—but <a href="http://www.timesofisrael.com/rabbi-attacked-in-malmo-after-synagogue-vandalized/">as
reported by JTA </a>, less than four months prior to the recent attack on the
rabbi and the synagogue:</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“…the district of <em><span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-style: normal; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">Skåne</span></em>,
where Malmö is located, declined the Jewish community’s request to increase the
number of security cameras around Jewish buildings.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It is even more worrying that the authorities are declining
the right of the Jewish community to implement self-defense. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Surveillance security would help put the
perpetrators of hate crimes behind bars, and forbidding it is tacit acceptance
of lawlessness. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As in the case of the rapes and white slavery perpetuated in
Rotherham, U.K., the authorities are unwilling to shine a light on the
perpetrators—if they turn out to be Muslims, prosecuting them would be
“racist”. So, in the end, the victims of Muslim aggression have no protection.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There is no paradise
of tolerance in Europe, and certainly not in Sweden. Jews are attacked out of
simple Islamic Jew hatred, and more so when Israel acts in self defense, while the
authorities fail protect Jewish citizens.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Mr. Rosenberg has every right to speak his mind, but sadly, what he
brings to the mainstream Swedish discourse is his “Jewish legitimization” for
adding to and aiding the delegitimization of Israel, and by default, Jews on
the streets of Sweden.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>

A recent article in the <i>Local</i> <a href="http://www.thelocal.se/45470/20130107/#.UO7k5aytoud">reports </a>on a survey of hate crimes reported versus charges pressed and convictions. Conclusion: many reports, no convictions. Please keep in mind that (as we have reported a number of times) the number of reports is far smaller than that actual occurrences reported.<br />
<br />
Here are the figures:<br />
<br />
-"Regional newspaper <i>Sydsvenskan </i>reports that Malmö processed a 'record'
480 hate crime complaints in a two-year span. But charges were filed in
only 16 cases and none of the indictments led to a conviction. <br />
<br />
-"None of the 44 anti-Semitic hate crimes reported in 2010 and 2011 even
made it to a prosecutor, while one of the 23 reported islamophobic
crimes resulted in criminal charges."<br />

One young Muslim resident of has decided to speak out against the tide of anti-Semitism in the city. According to 21-year-old Siavosh Derakhti, his family fled Iran looking for a better life. <i>The American Trial Attorneys Defending Israel Blog</i> <a href="http://attorneysdefendingisrael.blogspot.co.il/2013/01/in-tense-swedish-city-young-muslim.html">quotes</a> Derakhti:<br />
<br />
-“I found out Jews are fleeing Malmo, that they feel scared and unsafe on
the streets,” says Derakhti, who is studying to be a youth worker at
Malmo University and Folkhögskola Hvilan college, both in southern
Sweden. “And then I thought that something needs to be done. We can’t
keep on letting this happen — not in a country like Sweden, and not in
my hometown of Malmo.”<br />
<br />
While Derakhti acknowledges that his advocacy may prove dangerous, he is determined to act and educate: <br />
<br />
-Derakhti decided to educate his fellow Swedes about anti-Semitism and
the Holocaust after learning not only how little his high school
classmates knew, but that his school, Malmös Latinskola, was not trying
to change the situation.<br />

“In 25 years, they hadn’t invited any Holocaust survivors, and then they
wonder how there are so many people who deny the Holocaust or don’t
know a lot,” Derakhti says. After a struggle against school opposition and indifference he managed to organize a class trip to Poland. </div>

-“My parents fled from dictatorship so their children could grow up in a
peaceful place and experience democracy, and then to come to a country
where there is hate, discrimination and racism on our streets, this is
not acceptable. Something must be done,” Derakhti says.</div>

Two <a href="http://www.cjnews.com/index.php?q=node/98390">Jewish law students from Canada</a> recently took the opportunity to study at Sweden's <a href="http://swedenisrael.blogspot.co.il/2010/09/jewish-center-in-lund-may-close.html">Lund</a> University as part of their final year course at Canada's Dalhousie University. Renée Zatzman and Alexandra Schwarz were warmly welcomed by Rabbi Kesselman in Malmö and the community for the Jewish High Holidays.<br />
<br />
In addition to noting the very strict security measures in place, the students noted:<br />
<br />
-"The community’s generosity has
helped us adjust to life away from home and has given us a greater
appreciation for something that can easily be taken for granted in
Canada: the ability to openly practise our faith without fear."<br />

Or not...Arutz 7 <a href="http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/163187#.UNCL96xeGSo">reports</a> another case of in-your-face flat-out anti-Semitism in Malmö:<br />
<br />
-"The latest incidents took place over a period of several days, with
the snowball and stoning attacks following two 'Hitler salutes' earlier
in <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD4">the week</span>.<br />
-"Comments by a local Jewish leader highlight the sense of futility in the Jewish community. Fred Kahn, head of the Jewish community in Malmo told the <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD1">local newspaper</span> <em>Skånska Dagbladet</em>, 'Things like this happen all the time in Malmo. It's nothing new. The
difference is that nowadays people report things to the police, and
that's good.'<br />
-"Radio Sweden reported that a complaint was filed with the police, but
prosecutors have not yet decided whether to or not to drop the case."<br />
<br />
What this incident and the most recent case <a href="http://swedenisrael.blogspot.co.il/2012/12/ejc-warns-of-danger-to-swedens-jews.html">we reported</a>, is that in both these cases the offenses persisted over several days. Plenty of opportunity to catch the perpetrators, but the Swedish authorities are still thinking about whether they will do anything...<br />

The Simon Wiesenthal Center has <a href="http://www.wiesenthal.com/site/apps/nlnet/content2.aspx?c=lsKWLbPJLnF&b=4441467&ct=12532467">reported </a>that the Martin Bryder Gallery in Lund has ceased to display its vile "ash-painting" which used actual human remains stolen from the Majdanek Nazi death camp in Poland:<br />
<br />
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
<span style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;">After an international outcry led by the Swedish Jewish community, the Simon Wiesenthal Center, and other activists, a Swedish gallery has taken down an exhibit of a painting that used ashes of Holocaust victims. The painting, by Swedish artist Carl Michael von Hausswolff, contained ashes stolen by him from the Majdanek death camp in Poland</span></div>
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">

<br /></div>
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
The question now is whether the "artist", CM von Hausswolff, will restore the ashes to the memorial site and apologize for his actions. If he does not do this himself, no one in Sweden will, since the Swedish authorities have declined to pursue the matter. Once again, the liberal-minded regime has dropped the ball. And worse, they agree with many voices in the talkbacks to press reports that these ashes are only meaningless matter. When the Swedish authorities did this they accepted the Nazi proposition that a heap of ash is only an insignificant heap of ash, even if those ashes are the remains of human lives. Shame on all of them.</div>

-"...Salomon Schulman, a leading voice in
Sweden's Jewish community who lost many relatives to the Holocaust, has
condemned the painting as' revolting'.</div>
<div class="thirdPar">
-'Who
knows,' he wrote in a letter to a local newspaper. "Maybe some of the
ashes originated from my relatives. No one knows where they were
deported: all my mother's siblings and their children, and my
grandparents.</div>
<div class="fourthPar">
-'I will never go to
this gallery and it as view the desecration of Jewish bodies,' he added. 'I am sickened by his work and obsession with necrophilia.'"<br />
<br />
</div>
Shulman is correct in describing this as revolting. Once again, it's important to note that the artist collected these ashes himself, taking human remains as a personal souvenir of his visit to Majdanek. For many of us, the photos and memories we take away are sufficient to remind us of the Nazi horrors, but for this Swedish artist, the only thing that would do was a handful of Jew-ashes. Having been to Majdanek myself, I can only speculate as to how von Hausswolff managed to collect his souvenir. Scraping around in the crematoria? Jumping into the giant ash-pile memorial? <br />
<br />
It's not surprising that while the remains were stolen in 1989, von Hausswolff waited until now to display this macabre insult. Lately it seems that the point of "art" seems to be to make not just plain junk, but really offensive junk with some sort of political slant. Note that while many in the art world jumped to defend Serrano's <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piss_Christ">"Piss Christ"</a>, there was a either <a href="http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2012/11/29/glenn-beck-s-obama-pee-stunt-shows-he-s-still-in-populist-huckster-game.html">derision </a>or <a href="http://www.hollywood.com/news/Glenn_Beck_Obama_Urine_Art/45155273">stupefaction</a> when Glenn Beck <a href="http://ww.huffingtonpost.com/2012/11/28/glenn-beck-obama-urine_n_2203697.html#slide=more250075">spoofed</a> it by putting a bobblehead Obama in a jar of yellow-tinted water.<br />
<br />
Where the climate is ripe for sacrilege, but the personality-culters are hard at work, it's time to worry.<br />

<b><i>Continuing Attacks on Malmö Jewry</i></b><br />
<br />
The EJC's president, Dr. Moshe Kantor has declared that the Malmö
Jewish community is "dying of 'a thousand
cuts.'" The <a href="http://www.eurojewcong.org/ejc-news/8623-swedish-jewish-community-dying-of-a-%E2%80%9Cthousand-cuts%E2%80%9D-says-european-jewish-congress-president-after-series-of-anti-semitic-attacks.html">EJC</a> (and <a href="http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/162903#.UMCog6xeGSo">Arutz Sheva</a>) report on the worsening situation in Sweden for Jews and the particular danger for Malmo's Jews. In recent days, two Jewish women were robbed of Jewish items and swastikas were were painted on their doors. The harassment continued over three days--swastikas were repainted on the second day and garbage hurled at the doors on the third. Police were called several times, but in Mayor Reepalu's town there isn't much deterrence, apparently: <!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

<br />
-"The attacks against Jews should be seen in their entirety and there
is a concerted attempt to rid certain areas in Sweden, if not the whole
country, of Jews,”<br />
<br />
The EJC report also noted: <br />
-"The incident came on the heels of an attack on a synagogue in Malmo, a vicious attack on a <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD1">rabbi</span> in the street and several assaults carried out against the Jewish community in the last couple of months, Kantor added."<br />
<br />
<br />
While the EJC is planning to request a meeting with the Prime Minister on the subject, we find it hard to believe that any significant action will result. As a note, <i>The Local </i>did not cover the attack--perhaps a sign that the official media generally prefers to sweep the items under the rug.<br />
<br />
<i>Note on Swedish "Kultur": </i>Currently on display in a gallery in Lund is a picture which was created using human ashes stolen from the Majdanek Nazi death camp. (Blogpost photo shows ash mound memorial at Majdanek). Regardless of how the artist and gallery choose to spin this opus, the theft of human remains, use for a work to be sold for personal use or gain, and the public display of such on object are totally unconscionable. The artist and gallery must apologize and hand over the remains for respectful burial.<br />

Today's<i> Jerusalem Post </i>has a tidy overview of the current situation in Sweden. Israel is about to be pestered again by so-called human rights activists of the Swedish Ship to Gaza movement supporting the totalitarian Islamist Hamas regime. Meanwhile Jews and others in Sweden are gathering in public wearing <i>kippot</i>--that is visibly appearing as Jews--in order to protest the ongoing anti-Semitic climate that makes it dangerous for individual Jews to appear as Jews on the streets in Sweden. <br />

<h2 style="font-weight: normal;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Sweden is a remarkable country. In many ways the envy of Europe, not least for
one of its most famous sons Raoul Wallenberg, its vaunted social welfare program
and its industrial successes of the recent past, yet haunted by the murders of
its prime minister Olof Palme and foreign minister Anna Lindh.<br /><br />And by its
uneasy relationship with Israel. Not just Israel, but everything Israeli,
Zionist and Jewish.<br /><br />Soon to arrive off the coast of Israel is the
<span style="font-style: italic;">Estelle</span>, a small Swedish vessel that is part of a publicly-funded “Ship to Gaza”
propaganda exercise. Although it claims to be carrying “humanitarian aid” for
the people of Gaza, what it is really carrying is a crew of human-rights
saboteurs intent on vilifying the Jewish state and supporting
Hamas.<br /><br />While the <span style="font-style: italic;">Estelle</span> is on its way from Sweden to the hotbed of
terrorism that is the Hamas-led Gaza Strip, here in Sweden the nation continues
to contend every day with the climate that spawns “Ship to Gaza”: widespread
anti-Semitism in Sweden’s third-largest city, Malmö, media animosity toward
Israel that easily spills over into tacit anti-Semitism, and political fear of a
sizable Islamist minority following decades of immigration from strife-torn
Middle East countries.<br /><br />Sweden is a country whose Jews are largely
invisible. Jews have been living here for more than 250 years and number about
20,000 souls. But showing one’s Jewishness in a public place is fraught with
danger. Sweden is a society whose well-established, thoroughly integrated and
officially recognized Jewish minority is cowed into invisibility.</span><span style="font-size: small;"><span class="teaser" id="ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_article_control_lblTeaser"> </span><span class="teaser" id="ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_article_control_lblTeaser"> </span></span></h2>

<br />
-"Mehdi-Mohammed Ghezali was released from GITMO on the condition that the
Swedish authorities would keep track of his activities to U.S.

happened in Bulgaria, the Swedes pressured the then Bush administration
for his release, in spite of all the risks that would bring."<br />

</tbody></table><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Under the title "U.S. Sends Anti-Israel Advisor to Anti-Semitic Sweden", Soeren Kern of the Gateway Institute </span><a href="http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/3014/hannah-rosenthal-ilmar-reepalu-malmo"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">writes</span></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> that the controversial Rosenfeld will be meeting soon with Malmö's Social Democrat mayor, Ilmar Reepalu. </span> <br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Rosenthal, who comes to her White House anti-Semitism advisor post via the George Soros-funded JStreet pressure group, has been criticized for anti-Israel stances including links to BDS groups. Rosenthal also failed to take a firm stance against Lithuania for its revisionist spinning of its WWII Nazi collaborators as equally abused victims. Apropos to our topic, Rosenthal has spoken out against purported "Islamophobia" while ignoring the Muslim role in the rising tide of anti-Semitic hate crime in Europe. Kern writes:</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">--"Rosenthal now wants to travel to Sweden to find out what Reepalu is doing to combat intolerance in Malmö. Since both share similar perspectives on the root cause of anti-Jewish hate crime in Europe, namely Jewish support for Israel, Rosenthal and Reepalu can be expected to downplay the severity of anti-Semitism in Sweden and focus their attention on Islamophobia instead."</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Looks like Rosenthal's meeting with Reepalu will only serve as a handy campaign photo-op for Obama as he looks to solidify the liberal Jewish vote, while doing nothing to aid Malmö's Jewish community. This is a real shame since Reepalu's Social Democrat party merely has shrugged off Reepalu's latest anti-Semitic volley of accusations instead of demanding that he step down. In the meantime, Kern reports that 30 Jewish families have left Malmö due to increasing hate crime.</span><br />

Neuding was tarred with a racist label for pointing out the Muslim identity of perpetrators of anti-Semitic hate crime. <i>Super-Economy</i> looks at stats on rates of anti-Semitism in Sweden with figures for immigrants and sees that one and one, do indeed make two. Here's the post:<br />

<br />
Jewish-Swedish Paulina Neuding writes about this in the <a href="http://www.jpost.com/Opinion/Op-EdContributors/Article.aspx?id=265209">Jerusalem Post</a>, attributing the phenomenon to the rise of the Muslim population share. The Swedish left is <a href="https://twitter.com/#%21/JakobssonJ">outraged</a>, and is denouncing Neuding as a racist. But whats racist about it? <br />
<br />
In 2005 the Social Democratic government conducted a comprehensive survey of Antisemitism in Sweden. They use an index to measure Antisemitism, asking questions such as “Jews have too much influence in the world today”. They found that the prevalence of Antisemitic views was indeed far higher among Muslims:<br />
<br />
“antisemitiska uppfattningar och ambivalenta attityder till judar är jämförelsevis mer utbredda bland muslimer än bland kristna och icke- religiösa. Bland vuxna hyser 39 procent av dem som betecknar sig som muslimer en systematisk antisemitisk inställning jämfört med 5 procent totalt [3 procent bland etniska svenskar].”<br />
<br />
<i>[</i><span class="" id="result_box" lang="en"><span class="hps atn">"Anti-</span>Semitic views <span class="hps">and ambivalent</span> <span class="hps">attitudes toward</span> <span class="hps">Jews</span> <span class="hps">are relatively more</span> <span class="hps">prevalent</span> <span class="hps">among Muslims</span> <span class="hps">than among</span> <span class="hps atn">Christians and non-</span>religious. <span class="hps">Among adults</span> <span class="hps">harboring</span> <span class="hps">39 percent of</span> <span class="hps">those who</span> <span class="hps">describe themselves</span> <span class="hps">as Muslims</span>, a systematic <span class="hps">anti-Semitic</span> <span class="hps">attitude</span><span class="">, compared with 5</span> <span class="hps">percent in total</span> <span class="hps">[3</span> <span class="hps">percent among</span> <span class="hps">ethnic Swedes</span>]. <span class="hps atn">" </span></span><i>note: translation via Google, Chanah]</i><br />
<br />
For example, 7 percent of Swedish adults agree with the conspiracy theory that Jews were behind 9/11, compared 36 percent of Swedish Muslims. Only about 17 percent of Muslims immigrants in Sweden scored "low" on the Antisemitism index, whereas two thirds of native Swedes scored low. This is the same conclusion in all surveys of European Antisemitism I have seen: it is substantially higher among Muslim immigrants. An example is this <a href="http://www.h-net.org/%7Eantis/papers/jcr_antisemitism.pdf">study</a> co-authored by a Yale university scholar. On average, Muslims are 8 <span style="font-style: italic;">times </span>more likely to have Antisemitic views. <br />

Apparently it started as a joke in very poor taste on an Israeli basketball player's Facebook page and was picked up as "Gospel" (or would that be Koran?) on a Chechen website. Not funny, not nice. And these things multiply on humourless jihadi networks... <br />

While giving a current picture of life for Jews in Sweden, Neuding points to the thought processes which guide Sweden's ruling elites. It's not a far jump from wrongheadedness to ignoring reality when it contradicts operative theory. While even the <i>Local </i>ran a <a href="http://www.thelocal.se/39998/20120330/">story </a>prematurely predicting Mayor Reepalu's demise, in the end his Social Democrat party made sympathetic noises to the Jewish community leadership, but ultimately backed him up. Here's why: <br />
<div class="story-title" style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br />
</div><div class="story-title" style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>Sweden’s ‘Damn Jew’ Problem</b></div><h3 class="story-dek" style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif; font-weight: normal;"> <span style="font-size: small;">Wearing a yarmulke is no longer safe in the city of Malmö. The mayor blames the Jews, while other Swedish politicians point to ‘social inequality.’</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span class="newWindow" style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">It’s true—Jews aren’t the only residents of Malmö with safety concerns. Malmö’s high rates of crime have earned the city the moniker “Sweden’s Chicago.” In 2011 and early 2012, several people were killed in the city in what are believed to be gang shootings. When a teenage boy was shot dead on New Year’s Eve, more than a thousand people took to the streets to protest against the violence under the slogan “Enough, damn it.”</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"> High crime rates, especially among certain immigrant communities, have caused deep anxiety for the people of Malmö—and yet politicians and pundits are reluctant to discuss the issue, partly out of a genuine fear of stirring up racism and Islamophobia. When I met with Ask in 2009, for example, I asked her whether crime among immigrants in Sweden caused her to worry. She would not hear of it. “What we in fact can see, however, is that many victims of crime are immigrants,” she told me. “And <em>that</em> worries me.”<br />

</tbody></table><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">As we have written here recently, violent hate crimes in France are a reflection of both failed immigration policies and a failure to defend citizens against criminal and terror elements. In a <a href="http://www.turkishweekly.net/news/133146/dark-continent.html">blog post</a> published today, Paulina Neuding of Neo extracts conclusions from both the Islamically-motivated Toulouse attacks and </span><span style="font-size: small; line-height: 15pt;">her interview with Malmö Mayor Ilmar Reepalu in which he paradoxically accused </span><span style="font-size: small; line-height: 15pt;">Malmö's threatened Jewish community of spreading anti-Muslim hatred. </span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small; line-height: 15pt;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small; line-height: 15pt;">Neuding points out the European fallacy of simplistically equating the contentions of Muslim and Jewish groups, misplaced desire to be "even-handed" even where no equivalency exists. Accordingly, Swedish authorities, whether on the municipal level (Reepalu)or the international level (Bildt) are unwilling to change their policy approach to immigration, integration, and control of dangerous elements. Neuding has a hard look at possible scenarios and solutions in her article, ominously titled "Dark Continent":</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small; line-height: 15pt;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small; line-height: 15pt;">"</span><span style="font-size: small; line-height: 15pt;">...we are, unfortunately, increasingly well acquainted with this imported anti-Semitism, which is proving to be extremely difficult for European societies to confront. No one wants to blame or stigmatize another minority for anti-Semitic hate crimes, but Europe’s Jews are finding themselves in an increasingly difficult situation.<br />
<br />
"Europeans often choose to avoid the problem by viewing it as a conflict between two groups, with responsibility falling equally on both sides. When I asked Malmö’s mayor, Ilmar Reepalu, about the threats against Malmö’s Jews, he claimed that the city’s Jewish community was being “infiltrated” by the Sweden Democrats – an anti-immigration party with roots in the Swedish neo-Nazi movement – with the implication that Malmö’s Jews were on an equal footing with the anti-Semites persecuting them.<br />
<br />
"Reepalu had to retract his claim as soon as the interview was published. Yet he acted on the popular notion that anti-Semitic attacks by Arab youths in Europe are part of a cycle of reciprocal violence that yields a kind of moral equivalence."</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small; line-height: 15pt;"><br />

It's probably also a sign that what you don't get could be pretty significant. Last week Swedish Foreign Minister Carl Bildt (Moderate Party) co-authored a New York times op-ed with Finnish FM Erkki Tuomioja. The title was "The Only Option on Iran". Actually, if you have only one choice, it's not really an "option". What Bildt posits is that doing nothing about the Iranian nuclear weapons program, is a better "option" than preventing Iran from advancing along its ambition to be a nuclear power, which is in fact the other option.<br />
<br />
The FMs write:<br />
<br />
-"We are deeply concerned about all the loose talk regarding a possible military attack on Iran because of the growing uncertainty over parts of its nuclear program. <br />
<br />
<div itemprop="articleBody">"Not only would such an attack be a clear violation of the charter of the United Nations. It could have severely negative repercussions across the region and be counterproductive to the very objectives it would seek to achieve. </div><div itemprop="articleBody"><br />
</div><div itemprop="articleBody">"It is difficult to see a single action more likely to drive Iran into taking the final decision to acquire nuclear weapons than an attack on the country. And once such a decision was made, it would only be a matter of time before a nuclear-armed Iran became a reality."</div><div itemprop="articleBody"><br />
</div><div itemprop="articleBody">The key whitewashing and wishing are set out in this introduction. While it is certain that the Iranians are openly enriching uranium and building and test-firing long-range missiles capable of carrying nuclear warheads, this is fluffed over by the authors as "uncertainty over parts of its nuclear program".</div><div itemprop="articleBody"><br />
</div>Bildt and his Finnish colleague conveniently leave out any mention of Israel in the article. Yet continued calls by Iran's leaders to wipe out Israel constitute incitement to genocide which is a clear violation of the U.N. charter, and demands condemnation. Failing to point out the regime's stated raison d'etre of its nuclear ambitions is a dishonest omission.<br />
<br />
Thirdly, claiming that an atack on Iran would be the cause of Iran actually producing weapons, and insistence on the pursuit of diplomacy is wishful and dangerous thinking. For Israel and the Western world, actively containing the Iranian nuclear weapons program is an existential necessity and a means to maintain stability in the Middle East. The Saudis, fearing Iran's ambitions have called on the West to "cut off the head of the snake". <br />
<br />
Wake up Bildt. The locals know better what needs to be done. <br />

</tbody></table>Anyone who has followed the series of anti-Semitic insults which Malmö's Mayor Ilmar Reepalu (Social Democrat) flings out from time to time will not be surprised at his response to the Jewish community. Following his standard pattern, Reepalu has again added insult to injury by telling the Swedish national wire service TT that he has given up on relations with the Jewish community. <br />
According to an <a href="http://www.scancomark.se/Regional/The-Jewish-community-in-Malmo-fear-for-their-lives-as-the-Mayor-Reepalu-show-no-interested-in-protecting-them.html">article </a>posted on Swedish website Scanomark:<br />
<br />
-"Ilmar Reepalu on his part told the Swedish news network, TT that he has never been anti-Semitic. But that he will not try to do something to normalize relations with Jews.<br />
'No, what can I do? They will not listen.'"<br />
<br />
Listen to what? More insults? More accusations? Actually, the Jewish community has heard plenty from Reepalu, but what they'd like to hear is an apology and a plan of action for better security. <br />
<br />
While the Social Dems' leader Stefan Löfven has invited the Jewish community leadership to meet with the party in early April, this is still a far cry from publicly asking Reepalu to step down.<br />

</tbody></table><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">There was a time when the Social Democratic Party of Sweden was a powerful force for change, striving for a society based on equality, a society where everyone was equally welcome, regardless of gender, age, religion, nationality or ethnicity.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">That was a long time ago.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">With the far-right movements of Sweden being small and weak, it seems that members of the political Left have taken it upon themselves to carry on the long and proud European tradition of anti-Semitism. Arguably the greatest champion for hatred of Jews in Sweden is Ilmar Reepalu, the Social Democratic mayor of Sweden's third largest city, Malmö. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">It all began three years ago, during Operation: Cast Lead. A group of Jewish residents of Malmö had gathered to express their heartfelt support for all the victims of the war, be they Jewish, Arabic, or otherwise. The rally was soon attacked by a violent mob of Islamist extremists, who threw bottles and fired rockets into the crowd. Reepalu, when asked to comment on this, blamed the Jewish residents of Malmö, saying that they should have publicly denounced the state of Israel. If they had done so, Reepalu reasoned, then they wouldn't have been attacked. He went on to say that Malmö ”accepts neither Zionism nor anti-Semitism”.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Now, there is obviously a problem with the above statement. Anti-Semitism is a racist ideology, claiming that Jews are inferior or evil for no other reason than because we are Jews. Zionism, on the other hand, is the belief that Jews, as a people, have the right of self-determination, as well as pride in the shared cultural heritage of the Jewish people. Saying that this is as bad as hating someone simply for being born by the ”wrong” parents is odd, to say the least. However, so far, this can be chalked up to ignorance. Annoying, certainly. Infuriating, sure. But not racist. The claim that Swedish Jews should denounce Israel in order to avoid being attacked in broad daylight is worse, but one can just assume that the man is simply that dense.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">However, it doesn't end there. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">When confronted by various Jewish groups and organizations, Reepalu complained to the media that there were people out to get him, hinting at dark, shadowy organizations with vast power.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Recognize that line of reasoning from somewhere?</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">This is an accusation he has repeated a number of times, apparently refusing to accept that the source of the steady stream of criticism against him from Swedish Jews, Liberals, and sane Leftists (of which there are actually quite a few, as it turns out) is his own repeated slandering of Sweden's Jews. When the Simon Wiesenthal Center wrote to the Swedish Minister of Justice about the persecution of minorities in Malmö, pointing out the situation for Africans and Roma in particular, Reepalu, instead of accepting responsibility, accused the Center of trying to divert attention from Israel and its' ”violations of human rights”. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">In his attempts to slander Sweden's Jews, he recently tried to connect them with the anti-immigration Sweden Democratic Party, a party which is strongly disliked among a majority of Swedes, claiming that members of the Party had ”infiltrated the Jewish community in order to spread their hatred of Moslems”. The truth is the opposite; the Sweden Democrats have given up all hope for Sweden's Jews, claiming that they are simply too naïve to see the threat immigration poses to them. One high-ranking party official is from a Jewish background, and he wants to ban circumcision and kosher meat. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">However, the straw that finally broke the camel's back was when, in a radio interview, Reepalu recently accused the Jews of Malmö of being an elitist group receiving preferrential treatment, percieving themselves as being worth more than other groups. He also claimed that the Jews are in control of the media, and that was why he was so heavily criticized whenever he made an anti-Semitic comment.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">These are but a few examples, hastily thrown together during a short break from studying. Reepalu has established a pattern, one which he refuses to deviate from: if Jews are attacked, blame the Jews. If Jews are involved, in any way whatsoever, blame the Jews. If no Jews are involved, blame the Jews. It is painfully obvious that Reepalu is a pure anti-Semite, and his continued position as leader of a mayor Swedish city is nothing short of a disgrace.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><br />

</tbody></table><i>Reepalu Attempted to Paint Malmö's Beleaguered Jewish Community as a Nest of Bigots</i><br />
<br />
In an <a href="http://magasinetneo.se/2012/03/22/%E2%80%93-vi-klarar-inte-invandringen/">intervew</a> in <i>NEO</i> which was published on Thursday, Ilmar Reepalu (Social Democrat) once again took aim at the Jewish community. This time Reepalu (who has blamed Malmö's Jews for anti-Semitic attacks directed against them) falsely claimed that the Jewish community has been "infiltrated" by the Sweden Democrats Party, alleging that Sweden Democrat MP Kent Ekeroth has been active in the Jewish community. Reepalu then accused SD elements as being responsible for inciting "anti-Muslim hatred" in the Jewish community. <br />
<br />
Understandably, a brouhaha broke out in the media and Reepalu then <a href="http://www.dn.se/nyheter/sverige/reepalu-backar-om-sd-infiltration">backtracked</a> in <i>Dagens Nyheter</i>, claiming that he misinterpreted Ekeroth's presence at a community meeting. After accusing the Jews of hate-mongering, that kind of "oops!" remark was a pathetic excuse.<br />
<br />
Even the generally optimistic Jewish community leader Lena Posner Körösi <a href="http://www.varldenidag.se/nyhet/2012/03/22/Sverigedemokraterna-har-infiltrerat-judiska-forsamlingen/">lashed out</a> at Reepalu in the Christian daily <i>Världen idag</i>. Pulling no punches, she called him an anti-Semite. The Jewish community also berated Reepalu in a letter to the Social Democrat Party, which all key members of the community signed. The community consensus is that Reepalu has lost all remaining shreds of credibility. <br />
<br />
In the <i>NEO</i> interview, journalist Paulina Neuding, asked Reepalu about ongoing issues of criminality prevalent in the immigrant community in Malmö. One victim of criminal brutality was her own 84-year-old grandmother who was knocked to the ground by a gang of thugs. In short, Reepalu's response was to claim credit for a supposed vast improvement in community relations, and then to accuse the Jewish community of propagating hatred. By sticking a Sweden Democrat label on the Jewish community, Reepalu attempted to paint the Jews as all a pile of far-right hate-mongerers. <br />
<br />
As Rabbi Abraham Cooper <a href="http://www.jpost.com/JewishWorld/JewishNews/Article.aspx?id=263236">points out</a> in a <i>Jerusalem Post </i>article, Reepalu's remarks were both contemptible and added to the tension in Malmö. Coming on the heels of the despicable murders in Toulouse last week, Reepalu's comments should be denounced by the Social Democrats, Cooper added. <br />
<br />
Blaming the Jews for anti-Semitism is a not-so-subtle variety of inversion, where the Jews are accused of being the "Nazis". It is time for Malmö and the Social Democrats to ask Ilmar Reepalu to get another job, and preferably one where he has to keep his nasty mouth shut.<br />

<br />
"It reminded me of the old joke about the man walking up a street in Northern Ireland during the time of the Troubles. Someone sticks a gun in his back and demands 'are you Protestant or Catholic?'<br />
<br />
"It's OK" answers the man with a sigh of relief, 'I'm Jewish.' <br />
<br />
"To which the gunman responds, 'I must be the luckiest Palestinian in Belfast tonight.' <br />
<br />
"Perhaps I should apologize for writing jokes during the week of the worst anti-Semitic attack in Western Europe for nearly three decades, but having seen the Ozar Hatorah high school in Toulouse this week and after interviewing some of the eye-witnesses to the attack, the idea that Merah just turned up at the school on the off chance and killed a rabbi and three young children is so ridiculous as to be laughable...There is no way that such an attack could have been carried out unless Mareh scouted out the target in advance, observing it at length to find the most advantageous timing for his purpose."<br />

</tbody></table>A <a href="http://www.thelocal.se/39728/20120317/">recent art exhibit stirred controversy</a> as it included a poster showing three rats nibbling away the West Bank. One rat has an assault rifle on his back The poster was rapidly construed as an anti-Semitic slur showing the Israelis/Jews as vermin. In fact it would be hard to construe it any other way. As <a href="http://www.runyt.com/2012/03/16/rabbi-abraham-cooper-swedish-christian-art-exhibition-depicting-jews-as-rats-should-be-canceled/">Rabbi Abraham Cooper </a>of the Simon Wiesenthal Center noted in the <a href="http://www.jpost.com/International/Article.aspx?id=262383">JPost</a>:<br />
<br />
-"The use of animalization in caricatures was a favorite propaganda tactic of Nazis, later used by Soviet and Arab cartoonists to dehumanize Jews."<br />
<br />
The <a href="http://www.thelocal.se/39728/20120317/"><i>Local </i></a>quotes a far-right Swedish group's comment on the poster:<br />
<br />
- "Swedish artists grasped that Jews were violent pests'". <br />
<br />
Bilda, the exhibit's organizer, which is a state-funded Christian organization has published a <a href="http://www.bilda.nu/Startsidan/Aktuellt/Bilda-ber-om-ursakt/">semi-apology</a>, in which they express their regrets for creating an internet brouhaha and straying from their mission to be even-handed and inoffensive:<br />
<br />
-"Studieförbundet Bilda has made a mistake, and we want to apologise for this.<br />
<br />
-"There are reasons to criticise how Bilda marketed Stefan Sjöblom’s and Larz Lindqvist's exhibition 'The holy land – the holey country'. We should have realized how wrong a picture of cheese and mice could lead people’s thoughts, and how, for example, could be exploited in anti-Semitic circles. The intention of this image was to describe how all sides in a conflict are losers." Ja.<br />
<br />
And here's another non-apologetic line:<br />
<br />
-"We are aware that we are always at risk in one way or another, to get mixed up in the Middle East conflict."<br />
<br />
This was originally penned in Swedish, so a better translation would perhaps have been "All those people are so touchy, and this time we really stepped in it through no fault of our own."<br />
<br />
Despite the final lines in which the the group "evenhandedly" apologizes to "everyone" they offended, at no point in their public apology does Bilda actually apologize to Jews for the anti-Semitic character of the poster. Their spokesman Magnus Stenberg has tried to describe as depicting as "Israelis or Palestinian leaders". Blaming all Israelis, but only Palestinian leadership for the Arab-Israeli conflict only throws more fat in the fire.<br />

<span class="text14" id="article_content"><span><i>Ynet </i>also notes that both today and tomorrow Israeli schoolkids are home from school.

</tbody></table>In a refreshing turn of events, the <i>Local </i>reports that a Swedish court overturned a previous decision to accept as legal the marriage of an immigrant woman who was underage at the time of the marriage. The unnamed woman was married in Hebron in the West Bank before she was 18. A 2004 Swedish law strikes down the legality of marriages contracted abroad by minors. It's a sign that the law designed to prevent child marriage has some teeth:<br />
<br />
<strong><span>A Swedish court has ruled that a 17-year-old girl's marriage by a </span>Sharia<span> court in the West Bank is invalid in Sweden, overturning a lower court's decision.</span></strong><br />
<br />
<span>The girl, who is now 19-years-old, was married in June 2010 in a Sharia court located in the West Bank town of Hebron, ten days before her 18th birthday, according to Swedish court documents.</span><br />
<br />
<span> When she and her husband moved to Sweden they sought to have their marriage registered with the Swedish Tax Agency (Skatteverket).</span><br />
<br />
<span> But the agency denied the couple's application, arguing the marriage couldn't be registered in Sweden because the woman hadn't turned 18 at the time of the wedding.</span><br />
<br />
<span> In 2004, a change to Swedish law meant to prevent child marriages made marriage under the age of 18 illegal, even if the marriage was entered into abroad. </span><br />
