O, Sweden, Donald Really Knew Ye: The Haus That Bildt Built

"Pray For ABBA!"--no, seriously!

Don't Swede-talk me, Prime Minister. I've heard it all before.



Put the gun down, man--cultural suicide is not the answer.

“We expect the President of the United States to have sources of information that go beyond Fox News.” sniffed former Swedish prime minister Carl Bildt. From the country that invented Stockholm Syndrome.

Bildt on Trump:"Questions Abound." Actually, questions are out of bounds. And that's the problem.

You don't like Fox, Carl,  so how about the word of your fellow Swede, a life-long police investigator in Orebro, Sweden:

"Police investigator Peter Springare isn’t likely to be among those mocking President Trump for his remarks about refugees in Sweden.

Trump’s comments during a Florida campaign rally on Saturday – which some took as a misstatement about a supposed terror attack – dovetail with what Springare has been seeing during a typical week in Orebro, Sweden. Five rapes, three assaults, a pair of extortions, blackmail, an attempted murder, violence against police and a robbery made up Springare’s caseload for a five-day period earlier this month, according to a Feb. 3 Facebook post he wrote. The suspects were all from Muslim-majority countries – Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, Somalia and Turkey – save for one Swedish man nabbed in a drug-related case.

“Mohammed, Mahmod, Ali, again and again,” Springare wrote of those arrested.

Springare, who was briefly investigated for possible hate crime incitement based on his post, managed to elucidate what Trump only hinted at during a Florida campaign speech – somewhat opaquely.".......

Bildt Tweets: "To whom it might concern: here is what is happening in Sweden. All in all a rather pleasant place."

Rauthuh pleasant, indeed.

Bildt: "Last year there were (approximately) 50% more murders only in Orlando/Orange (County) in Florida, where Trump spoke the other day, than in all of Sweden. Bad."

Actually, Carl, the Orlando-Melbourne International Airport is in Brevard County an hour away at the beach, not really in Orlando or Orange County. A national leader should really be more precise in his language.

"When you are in a hole, stop digging". And when you're in a riot, stop denying. Feel the burn, Carl.

 



"All in all a rather pleasant place?"

 

Bildt: "What was Trump smoking?"
Besides your ass, Carl?
I'd say about two dozen Volvos.

From 2002, Mark Steyn--has it really been 15 years and we've learned nothing and forgotten everything?

"The other day, Johnelle Bryant, an official with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, gave an interview to ABC News in which she revealed that Mohammed Atta and three other September 11th terrorists had visited her Florida office seeking government loans.

At first," she says, "he refused to speak with me," on the grounds that she was, in his words, "but a female."

Ms. Bryant says the applicant was asking for $650,000 to start a crop-dusting business. His plan was to buy a six-seater twin-prop and then remove the seats. "He wanted to build a chemical tank that would fit inside the aircraft and take up every available square inch of the aircraft except for where the pilot would be sitting."

"He asked me," recalls Ms. Bryant, "what would prevent him from going behind my desk and cutting my throat and making off with the millions of dollars in that safe."

...Mr. Atta then spotted an aerial view of Washington hanging on the wall behind her. He told her he particularly liked the way it got all the famous landmarks of the city in one convenient picture, pointing specifically to the Pentagon and the White House. "He wanted that picture really bad."

"He said, 'How would America like it if another country destroyed that city and some of the monuments in it,' like the cities in his country had been destroyed?"

Mr. Atta then moved on to other prominent landmarks in other American cities, and enquired about security at the World Trade Center. Ms. Bryant had a Dallas Cowboys souvenir on her desk, and he asked her about their spectacular stadium and, specifically, the "hole in the roof."

At that point, the chit-chat turned to Mr. Atta's own country, which he claimed was Afghanistan. "He mentioned Osama bin Laden," she says. "I felt that he was trying to make the cultural leap from the country that he came from. I was attempting, in every manner I could, to help him make his relocation into our country as easy for him as I could."

There'll be more of these stories, tales of men virtually screaming their intentions but up against a culture sensitivity-trained into a cöma.".......

And then we Wöke Up.

 

A 2005 Steyn-UPDATE: 

"With hindsight, the defining encounter of the age was not between Mohammed Atta’s jet and the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001, but that between Mohammed Atta and Johnelle Bryant a year earlier.

For four years, much of the western world behaved like Bryant. Bomb us, and we agonise over the “root causes” (that is, what we did wrong). Decapitate us, and our politicians rush to the nearest mosque to declare that “Islam is a religion of peace”. Issue bloodcurdling calls at Friday prayers to kill all the Jews and infidels, and we fret that it may cause a backlash against Muslims. Behead sodomites and mutilate female genitalia, and gay groups and feminist groups can’t wait to march alongside you denouncing Bush, Blair and Howard. Murder a schoolful of children, and our scholars explain that to the “vast majority” of Muslims “jihad” is a harmless concept meaning “decaf latte with skimmed milk and cinnamon sprinkles”.

Multiculturalism is a kind of societal Stockholm Syndrome. Atta’s meetings with Bryant are emblematic: He wasn’t a genius, a master of disguise in deep cover; indeed, he was barely covered at all, he was the Leslie Nielsen of terrorist masterminds – but the more he stuck out, the more Bryant was trained not to notice, or to put it all down to his vibrant cultural tradition.

The more the Islamists step on our toes, the more we waltz them gaily round the room. Anyone can be tolerant of the tolerant, but tolerance of intolerance gives an even more intense frisson of pleasure to the multiculti masochists. Australia’s old cultural cringe had a certain market rationality; the new multicultural cringe is pure nihilism."........

Anti-Update-UPDATE: Networks Ignore Violent Immigrant Riot in Sweden After Mocking Trump

And the Three Little Pigs went all the way home complaining about how The Big Bad Wolf had stopped them from reporting the news, when, in fact, they had stopped themselves. The End.
