    Swedens problem in a nutshell.

    An interesting 60 minutes (australia) report.
    I expect this situation exists in other countries as well.

    It'll get worse before it has any hope of getting better.
    A very sad state of affairs.

    Gatestone Institute called Sofia Häggmark, a non-partisan official at the Department of Justice unit for migration rights. Here is the Q & A:

    Should everyone get to seek asylum in Sweden, even if it leads to Sweden's undoing?

    "The right of asylum is very strong. We have international rules and EU rules that say that if a person comes to an EU country, that person has a right to seek asylum."

    Is it all right to say no if there are groups in your country that are being threatened by the asylum seekers -- minority populations such as Roma, Jews and Sami [Lapp]? Or that Sweden cannot afford it?

    "No, if a person has grounds for asylum or risks the death penalty or torture in their home country, you cannot deny them asylum."

    Is it not the Swedish government's primary task to protect Sweden and the Swedish people?

    "We need to abide by international rules; we are obliged to do that. We can be dragged before the Court of Justice of the European Union if we do not allow people to seek asylum."

    Which is more important – Swedish lives, or the risk that you might end up before the Court of Justice of the European Union?

    "I cannot answer that question; I can only tell you what the rules are."

    So you are saying that if 30 million people come here to kill us, we have no defense, we cannot stop it?

    "I can only tell you that the right of asylum gives very strong protection."

    But not for the Swedes?

    "If a person kills someone here in Sweden, the criminal justice system handles that and tries them. We need to look at every individual asylum case."

    Do you think it has ever happened at any time in the history of the world that a country cared more for the citizens of other countries than its own?

    "I cannot answer that. But there is no rule that sets a limit for how many [asylum seekers] Sweden can accept."

    So there is no plan for what to do when the country is full and the citizens are scared?

    "No, there is not."

    Do you personally think that feels okay?

    "I cannot answer that. That is not my job."

    If several millions of Muslims come here and implement Sharia law, then the right of asylum has effectively contributed to abolishing the democracy in our country, replacing the Swedish people and annihilating the whole concept of Sweden. Have none of you pondered these fateful issues?

    "I understand your thoughts."

    Sweden: Death by Immigration


    Makes ya wanna cry, or puke, or something, dunnit?

    Time for UK (and Sweden) to get out of that snake pit called the EU.

    Sweden was proudly proclaiming itself 'the humanitarian super power of the world' six months ago?

    I must have missed their trumpeting of that utterly bizarre concept.

    And Denmark is stripping refugees of their valuables?



    I always knew Channel 9 was to responsible journalism what Ferrero Rocher is to luxury chocolate but...jeeezuz.

    The questions are valid.

    If, and this is true, the refugees/asylum seekers believe that the laws of the land are lesser to their own religious laws, and that those religious laws are not only at odds with but are actively harmful to the country taking in the refugees/asylum seekers then we have a massive problem. Pretending we don't isn't gave help anything. Time for countries to get out of the EU, shore up their borders and sort out their societies. Also, they may wanna stop fighting wars all over the place and funding extremist terrorists...

    Throw a reference to a post no. in there and that non-sequitur could have come from our very own peeweeannoy.

    There was a point about ten minutes in when I was almost expecting her to say 'if you look again at my post 8,217...'

    He is certainly setting up his statements, but his statements are very reasonable, valid and important questions (if somewhat rhetorical); if the bloody bureaucratic bastards won't think/say the obvious then the bloke is doing a public service by pointing out their insanity/incompetence.
