Judith Popinski: Jews leave Swedish city after sharp rise in anti-Semitic hate crimes

When she first arrived in Sweden after her rescue from a Nazi concentration camp, Judith Popinski was treated with great kindness.

She raised a family in the city of Malmo, and for the next six decades lived happily in her adopted homeland – until last year.

In 2009, a chapel serving the city’s 700-strong Jewish community was set ablaze. Jewish cemeteries were repeatedly desecrated, worshippers were abused on their way home from prayer, and “Hitler” was mockingly chanted in the streets by masked men.

“I never thought I would see this hatred again in my lifetime, not in Sweden anyway,” Mrs Popinski told The Sunday Telegraph.

“This new hatred comes from Muslim immigrants. The Jewish people are afraid now.” Continue Reading →

Police warn EDL that ‘suicide’ bombers may explode at rallies

Posted on by

This from an article and website that is very clearly anti-EDL. I find it somewhat ironic that this publication cannot tell who the good guys or bad guys are, when even they say that it is the Muslims who are threatening to set of bombs and create violent death and mayhem wherever a group that stands for British Law and against sharia law in England march. Yet still, EDL are painted as the bad guys. Truly post modern horror.

Fears of violence as far-right group admits it can’t control followers

  • The Scottish Defence League march in Edinburgh will face a counter protest

Jasper Hamill

Published on 14 Feb 2010

With only a week to go before the Scottish Defence League takes to the streets of Edinburgh for a second time, the leaders of the far-right organisation have admitted that they have lost control over the supporters that follow their protests.

A recent English Defence League demonstration in Stoke turned into a “pogrom” against Muslims, according to anti-fascists, that was so violent it shocked even the Defence League leadership, who were quick to deny responsibility. Now Defence League organisers say that this Saturday’s planned demonstration in the capital is at risk of descending into chaos because leaders are losing control of the mass movement.

More than 1,500 people turned up on the side of the English Defence League in Stoke – the sister organisation of the Scottish Defence League – dwarfing the tiny number of anti-fascists that gathered to stand against them.

The mob turned over police riot vans, smashed the windows of Muslim homes and tried to attack a mosque. Organisers believe some 500 Scottish Defence League supporters will turn up in the capital next weekend.

Defence League leaders claim that hundreds of BNP supporters and other thugs turned up in Stoke simply looking for a fight.

Mickey, who leads Casuals United and is part of the EDL leadership, said: “Stoke was horrendous. It went mental. Hundreds of BNP members turned up. You can’t go around rioting like that, because eventually they’ll ban the movement. The people that came don’t care about the EDL, they just turn up for the riots.”

He added: “We’re not conspiring to cause riots. Yes, we have a lot of criminals attaching themselves to us and people that come along to kick off, but we’re trying to deal with that.”

The police are now so concerned about the Defence Leagues that the have set up a special unit to try and combat them.

Fear of infiltration is at fever pitch amongst the far-right group, with leaders even claiming that Special Branch tried to sneak into their ranks by disguising an officer as a Hells Angel.

The biker allegedly visited every regional Defence League leader in the county, asking for membership details and taking photographs. When enquires were made, no motorcycle gang had heard of him.

Police have also warned the EDL that Islamic extremists are plotting to attack their demonstrations and told them that any future protests in Birmingham could be attacked by suicide bombers. Continue Reading →

Stratfor: France: Youths, Police Clash

Anyone wanna guess who the youths are?

January 21, 2010 STRATFOR
Youths burned vehicles and police used stun grenades in Woippy town, France, late Jan. 20 after the death of a young man trying to flee police on a scooter, Reuters reported Jan. 21, citing Deputy Mayor Jean-Marc Rosier and local media. A prosecutor said police had followed at a slow pace a stolen scooter Jan. 19 that carried three men without helmets. The scooter’s driver lost control, and the three were thrown off, killing one and injuring the other two.

STRATFOR: Kenya raids Somali Suburb.

I wonder, is there a nation rich in the Multicultural goodness of Islam that does not have a massive problem with it? From Stratfor:

Kenya: Raid Conducted On Somali Suburb After Riots

January 17, 2010
Kenyan security forces raided a heavily Somali suburb of Nairobi Jan. 17, two days after the violent protests in the capital that followed the arrest of a Jamaican Muslim cleric, Reuters reported. Ahmed Nur Ugas, a Somali member of parliament, said police were arresting people they believed to be Somali whether they had legal identification or not, and that police did room-to-room searches of the Barakat Hotel, asking each occupant about their nationality.

Kenyan police clash with Muslim Protestors

Posted on by

I must say, the rest of the world could learn a few things about how to handle Muslims from the Kenyans. It appears they managed to get the better of the deal with a gang of rioting Muslims demanding that the Kenyan nation give in to all their demands. If only Western governments would allow regular people to defend thier own cultures, beliefs and societies then we could probably fix the problem of Islam in the west in a week. [I bolded the text below]

Eeyore
Kenya flag

Kenyan security forces shot in the air and fired tear gas at hundreds of people protesting in the capital on Friday against the detention of Jamaican Muslim cleric Sheikh Abdullah al-Faisal.

The protesters, chanting “Allahu Akbar” (God is greatest) and some holding the flag of Somali rebel group al Shabaab, were blocked by police with dogs as they tried to march through the heart of Nairobi after prayers at the downtown mosque.

Some Kenyans, angry the attempted protest had taken place at all, joined forces with the security forces and began hurling stones at the marchers, squeezing them back towards the mosque.

“This is not an acceptable behaviour. The man who is supposed to be deported is not a Kenyan and his presence is not in the interest of Kenya these days,” said bystander Richard Odibo.

A helicopter clattered overhead and police also used water cannon to contain the clashes. Many protesters, some carrying pictures of Faisal on placards, were eventually corralled in the mosque but small groups continued hurling stones nearby.

A Reuters witness saw two policemen and four protesters injured by stones.

Faisal was visiting the east African nation for a preaching tour. Kenyan intelligence officials have said they fear his speeches could stoke radicalism in a country that has suffered two al Qaeda-linked attacks.

Faisal was deported from Britain in 2007 for preaching racial hatred and urging his audiences to kill Jews, Hindus and Westerners. He was arrested in Kenya on Dec. 31.

Kenya’s immigration minister Otieno Kajwang has declared Faisal a prohibited immigrant. Attempts by Kenya to deport him failed last week because Nigeria refused to give him a transit visa to Gambia.

Police sources told Reuters Faisal was being held at Nairobi’s international airport. Another source said the government would hold him in custody until he could be deported straight to Jamaica.

“One person, a Jamaican, how can he make the whole country shut down? One person, how come no one in Jamaica is defending him,” said a man in a group that charged the Muslim protesters.

“These demonstrators, they can go back home to Somalia if they want to,” he told Reuters Television.
Kenya hosts some 300,000 Somali refugees in refugee camps and there is a significant Somali community in Nairobi. There have been reports of rebel supporters recruiting fighters and young suicide bombers from the diaspora within Kenya.

Al Shabaab, a rebel group that Washington accuses of links to al Qaeda, is battling to overthrow the Somali government and impose their own hardline version of sharia law.

Some of the peace Islam brought to Iran Dec 27th 09

Posted on by

Found this clip on gayandright. This is a country that has recently started a proxy war with Saudi Arabia in Yemen, has taken an oil well in Iraq, claiming the well was within Iran, is funding and fueling Chavez’s rather psychotic anti-Americanism and threatens to destroy Israel pretty much every day. Oh yes did I forget they equip elements of the Taliban in Afghanistan? Yes Islam is the religion of peace and the more Islamic a nation is, the more peace you get. Here is a nice sample of it below brought to you by the Islamic Republic of Iran:

Making sense of Iran

Posted on by

Of course the Iranian government is doing it’s best to crush any information showing violence or problems. However it appears as if this time more than last time, the security forces are abandoning their orders and not shooting at crowds or firing in the air. This is one small step from firing on their superiors and allowing for a new regime changing revolution, as the current government can only stay in power so long as their security apparatus allows them to, in the face of this kind of opposition.

New information from STRATFOR is coming in every few minutes but of course I cannot post it as most of it is copyright. However the odd SITREP or paragraph I can so I will try and keep up.

Here is a short video someone else sent me (Thank you Infidel) of someone being killed on the streets in a protest.

It should be noted that seven Hizbolah operatives have also been arrested in Iraq today. This means that Iran has agents operating in a manner that causes suspicion in many areas. Iran also is conducting a proxy war in Yemen with Saudi Arabia and arguably the U.S.

Iran at start of new revolution and regime?

Posted on by

There are several phases to a revolution and the most significant one from the point of view of actual change afterwards, is if security forces join the revolutionaries and stop taking orders from the government. The reasons for this are obvious.

It might be the case in Iran now. According to this STRATFOR report I just received:

December 27, 2009
STRATFOR Iranian sources say that unconfirmed reports indicate as many as 16 people are believed to have been killed so far in the Dec. 27 protests in Tehran, including one Basij militiamen, and that several security forces have been injured along with rioters. There are also reports that there have been some desertions by security forces to the side of the protesters.

Iran bringing in Hizbulah as goons to Qom

Posted on by

According to Stratfor, Iran is rumoured to be bringing in hundreds of Hizbolah men to Qom as goons to act against anti government protesters. If this is true we will know within the week. Chances are, some of the reports we are reading about non uniformed men acting violently against protesters already are likely Hizbolah. Certainly Hizblah are seen frequently in the streets of Iranian cities according to a Chris Hitchens interview from years ago.

But what an ugly government that brings in hired thugs from another nation to control its own population. I can’t think of much worse except what Iran plans for Israel, the US and perhaps Saudi Arabia even.

December 25, 2009
A STRATFOR source reported Dec. 25 that hundreds of Hezbollah security forces have been dispatched to Iran in anticipation of the opposition demonstrations planned for Dec. 27, the Shiite holy day of Ashura. The source indicated that most of the Hezbollah forces would be sent to Qom, where demonstrations have broken out in the past week. This report has not been confirmed.

By the way, for anyone who likes this sort of geopolitical analysis on world affairs I suggest buying a STRATFOR membership. It is fallable indeed as they really got the Iranian nuclear program wrong. But overall it is a fantastic way to think and a good augmentation of more typical ways of thinking about war and politics.

Iran sees more and larger unrest. Govt. in real trouble

First a Stratfor video on the death of a key figure in the Iranian revolution:

Here is two paragraphs from a Stratfor analysis of what this may mean, two paragraphs being the agreement with Stratfor of what may be published without direct permission. For the rest of this analysis, please join Stratfor.com or sign up for a trial membership.

This is undoubtedly Tehran’s foremost internal threat, and it comes during its biggest foreign policy challenge. Tehran is fast approaching the year-end deadline to accept a United Nations deal and relinquish control over its stockpile of indigenously enriched uranium or face the threat of crippling gasoline sanctions or worse: U.S. or Israeli military action — or both. One option for the regime is to remain defiant and provoke war in an attempt to try to consolidate itself on the home front.

But there are no guarantees that Iran’s already incensed public won’t fault the regime for plunging the country into war. On the other hand, the perception of capitulation to international pressure could end up exacerbating the domestic unrest. It is not clear whether the Islamic republic will fall, but the current elite in charge is truly between a rock and a hard place.

The Copenhagen Choo-Choo

Now THIS is how you treat violent protestors with a profound sense of entitlement. Canadian authorities take careful note please. I expect to see this the next time a G8 summit happens here in the winter.

Copenhagen Choo-Choo

As everyone who is not a hermit or in solitary confinement already knows, the past few days have witnessed the Great Hope and Climate Change Summit in Copenhagen. Following the usual playbook for such international confabs, a gaggle of anti-globalists, communists, and hard-core anarchists showed up in force to block the streets, break windows, and fight with the police.

The Copenhagen cops employed somewhat different tactics this time when dealing with the troublemakers. Our Danish correspondent Kepiblanc sends this brief report:

As you probably know by now, there’s some sort of UN stunt going on in Copenhagen these days. Such events always attract all sorts of strange people, and this one is no different.

Aside from dignitaries like Mr. Mugabe, Mr. Gha-Daffy, Mr. Adolfinadinnerjacket, and your own Mr. Hussein Oh-Bama, a lot of the usual suspects from the looniesphere have shown up here. Most of them are harmless, naïve fools who like to go picketing and demonstrating against one thing and another, no matter what.

But the ‘international riot crowd’ showed up in force as well. You know, the ‘youths’ who excel in burning cars, smashing windows, throwing cobblestones and Molotov cocktails and one thing and another. In short: behaving, generally…

Normally, rioting and burning a city just leads to the usual chain of events: street havoc and battles with the local cops, followed by whining and legislation about ‘police brutality’. And that’s it, onward to the next city…

Not so this time. When they started throwing fireworks and bricks around, the Danish police acted differently. They immediately surrounded the youths with wagons and cut them off from both ends of a major street.

Then they handcuffed each and every one and placed them in a position where unable to move: the so-called ‘choo-choo train’. After spending four hours sitting on the asphalt, peeing in their pants and screaming — well, not so much about ‘global warming’ (it’s below zero Celsius here) — they were transferred to open cages — Gitmo style — for the night.

So now the ‘youths’ can return to whence they came and tell everyone about the global warming and hot air in Carbonhagen…

The far left get’s trounced out of Muslim Rosengard Sweden

Posted on by

Here is an interesting and somewhat amusing event from Aug, 2009. Some violent anarchists who call themselves Antifa, for anti fascist or, Anti Fascist Action, went to Muslim Rosengard Sweden hoping to exacerbate some violence and general rioting. Here is how it actually turned out this time.

Some additional info:

Many thanks!

This video was filmed on Saturday 22 August 2009

Members of left wing AFA or Antifa (Anti Fascist Action – Sweden) had attempted to organise a local Street festival in Rosengård, Sweden. However things did not go to plan as local young Muslims were not ‘being organised’ by anyone and unceremoniously evicted the AFA who were then relegated to holding their ‘Street festival’ outside of a nearby ‘petrol station’, where they threw stones, bottles, and burning objects at police cars.

This article in the The Local has more information, although it is very careful to avoid identifying either the political or the ethnic aspects of the encounter. To the Swedish media, the masked Antifa are “activists”, and the violent young Muslims are “residents of Rosengård”.
