Sweden's Foreign Minister Barred From Israel After Calling For "Extrajudicial Killings" Probe
Having upset The Sauds (by exposing the truth about The Kingdom's subjugation of women and medieval laws), and hurt relations with Saudi Arabia, Swedish foreign minister Margot Wallstrom has now made an enemy of another Middle-East nation. Israel has barred Wallstrom from entering their nation after she called for investigations into "extrajudicial killings" during recent violence.
As Ynet News reports, Swedish Foreign Minister Margot Wallstrom called on Tuesday for an investigation to determine whether Israel was guilty of extrajudicial killings of Palestinians during recent violence there, local media reported.
The comments were the latest in a series of statements by Wallstrom that have irked Israeli authorities. Ties between Sweden and Israel nose-dived when Sweden recognized the Palestinian state shortly after Wallstrom's center-left Social Democrats won a parliamentary election in 2014.
The rift then deepened further when she described the Palestinians' plight as a factor leading to Islamist radicalization.
"It is vital that there is a thorough, credible investigation into these deaths in order to clarify and bring about possible accountability," Wallstrom said during a parliamentary debate, according to news agency TT.
In response, the Israeli Foreign Ministry said in a statement: "The Swedish Foreign Minister has, in her reckless and ludicrous comments, buoyed terrorism and by so doing is encouraging violence."
Wallstrom publicly accused Israeli of "extrajudicial killings" in December during a discussion at the Swedish parliament about the ongoing wave of violence and terror attacks raging in Israel.
Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Löfven caused controversy in December when he said stabbing attacks were not considered terrorism.
And that has led to this:
Swedish foreign minister Margot Wallstroem barred from official visits, Swedish news agency TT reports, citing Israeli ministry of foreign affairs.
So it appears, migrant-friendly Sweden is slowly working its way around the Middle-East upsetting everyone... by "allegedly" telling the truth and asking the hard questions.
Which is odd, as we previously noted, Sweden is the world’s 12th largest arms exporter — quite an achievement for a country of just nine million people.
To put it as mildly as I can, the Swedish establishment has gone wild. Thirty chief executives signed a letter saying that breaking the arms trade agreement ‘would jeopardise Sweden’s reputation as a trade and co-operation partner’.
No less a figure than His Majesty King Carl XVI Gustaf himself hauled Wallström in at the weekend to tell her that he wanted a compromise. Saudi Arabia has successfully turned criticism of its brutal version of Islam into an attack on all Muslims, regardless of whether they are Wahhabis or not, and Wallström and her colleagues are clearly unnerved by accusations of Islamophobia.
But as The Gatestone Institute notes, it seems that pretty much everything is going wrong for Sweden's Foreign Minister these days.
Margot Wallström, of the Social Democratic Party, ascended with much fanfare to the post of Foreign Minister in the fall of 2014. She had introduced a completely new concept: a feminist foreign policy. In the Statement of Foreign Policy of 2015, she asserted that "A feminist foreign policy is now being formulated, the purpose of which is to combat discrimination against women, improve conditions for women and contribute to peace and development."
One year later, we now know the outcome: "Feminist foreign policy" is not so much about protecting women's interests, as it is about fawning over the Arab states and the Palestinians -- and constantly attacking Israel, the only democracy in the Middle East.
A few days after Wallström's scandalous post-Paris interview, the linguist Susanne Sznajderman-Rytz posted on her Facebook page:
"'The Jews are campaigning against me.' That was the reply I got from Margot Wallström, when I ran into her by coincidence the day after the Paris attacks, and told her that many of my Jewish friends were really offended by what she told [SVT anchorman] Claes Elfsberg earlier that morning."
Again, Wallström was forced to explain herself. Her Press Secretary claimed outright that Sznajderman-Rytz had made the whole thing up. But Sznajderman-Rytz stuck to her story. She told the alternative media website Nyheter Idag,
"Let me tell you what I do in my everyday working life. She did not know this, but I educate people in communication and writing. Professionally, I work with understanding what people are saying, how they act and everything that happened in that moment is quoted correctly."
In early December, two members of Parliament, Mathias Sundin of the Liberals and Kent Ekeroth of the Sweden Democrats, had demanded that Wallström explain why she had not condemned the rampant Palestinian knife attacks against civilian Israelis with so much as a syllable. The ensuing debate ended with Wallström saying that she trusts Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas implicitly, because he told her he wants peace, and she believes him. She also leveled new accusations against Israel, which, according to Wallström, is engaged in "extrajudicial executions."
Mathias Sundin wrote in an opinion piece in Aftonbladet:
"When I pointed out that the Israeli police handle the knife attacks according to the same principle that the Swedish police used during the Trollhättan school attack, by aiming for the body to stop the assailant quickly, the Foreign Minister shook her head several times. It was in reply to this statement that Wallström said that the response must not be extrajudicial executions.
"Even though it is obvious what she actually means, she and the government refuse to apologize. Their defense tactic -- the one about it being a misunderstanding -- does not include an apology even for being unclear, but rather, a new attack against Israel. Unfortunately, this is completely in line with the government's one-sided policy. ... It is a shame for Sweden to have a Foreign Minister who creates a diplomatic crisis as soon as she opens her mouth, and who so one-sidedly allies herself with anti-democratic forces against Israel, the only democracy in the Middle East."
 Sweden's Foreign Minister Margot Wallström (right) called the Israel Police's actions in stopping deadly stabbing attacks "extrajudicial executions," even after it was pointed out to her that "Israeli police handle the knife attacks according to the same principle that the Swedish police used..." |
Kent Ekeroth wondered how Wallström views President Abbas and his Fatah party. The Foreign Minister replied:
"The government supports moderate forces in Palestine, the government supports the Palestinian Authority and others who recognize Israel's right to exist and seek a diplomatic solution to the conflict, enabling Israel and Palestine to live side by side with peace and security. I find that President Abbas has made it his life's goal to replace the way of violence with a diplomatic struggle to end the Israeli occupation of Palestine. I also note that President Abbas, apart from his denunciation of terrorism, has also spoken against cries for violent resistance against the Israeli occupying force."
Ekeroth retorted:
"Wallström portrays Abbas as a pacifist who has denounced terrorism. He might condemn terrorism when it is French citizens who are killed, but when it is Israelis being killed there are no problems. He has not condemned a single one of the murders of 20 Israelis during the last few months. On the contrary, many of the Palestinian Authority and Fatah leaders have glorified the killers. A member of the Fatah Central Council told Palestinian TV in October that he congratulates all those who have carried out the attacks. He is proud of them, and thought that knife attacks should be taught in Palestinian schools.
Your own 'golden boy' Mahmoud Abbas said in September, regarding the violence against Israelis, that 'We bless every drop of blood spilled in Jerusalem', and we know that every Palestinian assassin apprehended by Israel is rewarded by the Palestinian Authority. So how can Wallström claim that he denounces terrorism, when he is actually rewarding it with money from the Swedish taxpayers?
"Wallström is either ignorant about Abbas' celebrations of and rewards to murderers, or she is lying. Neither alternative is very flattering. I would therefore like to ask two questions: Is Wallström aware of the praising of terrorism? Is Wallström aware of the rewards paid to terrorists? Yes or no?"
Wallström replied that she certainly condemns "all acts of violence, regardless if they are carried out by Palestinians or Israelis, and I have emphasized the importance of bringing those responsible to justice and not engaging in extrajudicial executions."
Wallström further thought that one should not attempt to interpret or translate what Abbas says, because there are so many different ways to do this. "I do not think we should do that, the important thing is that we condemn violence and I myself have heard Abbas do this, so I know he renounces violence."
Ekeroth shot back: "One does not reward terrorists with recognition, and one does not pay them using Swedish taxpayers' money." He then proceeded to show a number of printouts of Fatah's official Facebook page, where murdered Israelis are displayed and the killings celebrated. "You need to understand that Abbas speaks two languages -- one to gullible [Western] politicians, where he says he wants peace, and another to Palestinians, where he promotes, glorifies and rewards terror. Wallström needs to stop listening to what Abbas tells her and instead start listening to what he tells his own people."
On January 11, 2016, did it again. She said in parliament that she wants "a thorough and credible investigation into whether Israel has used extrajudicial killings during the last months of violence, knife attacks and clashes between Israelis and Palestinians."
The statement provoked strong a reaction in Israel. Its foreign ministry, in an unusually strongly-worded statement, condemned Wallström, saying her "irresponsible and delirious statements are giving support to terrorism and encouraging violence." Technology and Space Minister Ofir Akunis went farther and suggested that, instead, there should be an investigation on "how a woman who so bluntly hates Israel was elected, and still holds the role of foreign minister of Sweden."

Easy one to deconstruct:Another Alleged Crazy Muslim With a Machete in France

What is wrong with this woman, she is pro-Jew one day, and anti-Jew the next.
"Put down that kippa or I'll burka you!"
in the ass
LOL Sweden will need to do the same in couple of years if they keep it up.
In response, the Israeli Foreign Ministry said in a statement: "You're either with us doing whatever the fuck we want, or you're with the terrorists."
In using a capital 'I' in israel you have endorsed the theft of Palestinian land.
It's Israel. If the Palestinians could be rational they might actually live inside Israel but they're not. Not hot on Israelis but damn negative about the towel heads.
They're both mentally insane, but one of them had that whole "possession is 9/10ths of the law" on their side until the whiskey pete started flying.
This is a British mistake that the world has condoned for far too fucking long already.
Exactly how docile would you be if someone invaded the US, kicked you out of your house, and then accused you of being irrational if you fought back? I'm guessing you go ass up in a heartbeat given what you wrote above.
Exactly- a huge British fucking mistake.
Who is the Balfour Declaration addressed to? Lord Rothschild.
Who promised the nationalist arabs statehood for helping them to overthrow the Ottomans in WWI via the McMahon–Hussein Correspondence? The British.
Who also agreed with France and Russia to partition those same nationalist arab areas into spheres of influence if the war against the Ottomans was successful via the Sykes-Picot Agreement? The British.
Which nation betrayed the nationalist arabs first and foremost: the British.
Judging by the lack of effective opposition to the Hispanic invasion, I'd say the US citizenry is pretty damned docile. Maybe they're not (yet) being kicked out of their houses, but they are having their pockets picked to foot the bill for far too many illegal invaders. And those who object are called racist rather than simply irrational, which essentially is a difference without a distinction.
Most of my ancestors have been kicked out and they left losing their property. I myself was, not so much kicked out but threatened at gunpoint to leave my home, more or less. Im as peaceful in deeds as it gets and i'm busy making a life for myself. But yeah, i do dream of mass murdering my enemies, i just need more time.
I stopped giving a shit about the supposed troubles of my ancestors, but the people who personally attacked me will pay with their blood. Or maybe not, seriously who knows?
Based on your sn, you are either an irrational man or a woman (essentially the same thing), and therefore, have no ability to judge rationality
I think it's a little late to go back on recognizing them (what's a big brother US henchman for, if not that?).
Which borders do we go back to 67', 48', biblical?
Drawing borders upon racist ethnic fables has proved disastrous already, so go with '48.
Blowjob, the market will decide.
Ok, cum technician.
These things are decided in wars, you are a nobody with no power to draw a border.
Who are these "Palestinains" exactly? Canaanintes? Emorites? Syrian Greeks? Post Muslim conquest Arab settlers? Or maybe post Muslim conquest Jews who converted to Islam? Do you have any idea what you're talkiing about? Please educate the readers as Palestine was the Roman name given to the province of Judea after the Bar Kokhba revolt
Your made up fables carry no weight, all fucking lies to serve whatever deceitful act you are committing on any given day.
So says the collection of blue-eyed blond-haired Genuine Middle Easterners (TM).
"You're either with us doing whatever the fuck we want, or you're with the terrorists."
You´re either with us and the terrorists doing whatever the fuck we want, or ...

Pentagram of Terror: Lang-lee - you-K - Saudi - Mossad - Turkey
Churchill, Winston (1899). The River War Vol. II
"How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property – either as a child, a wife, or a concubine – must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen: all know how to die: but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome.[5]:248–250
Oy vey Churchill (another satanist) was a ko$her master race worshipper
http://www.fpp.co.uk/bookchapters/WSC/WSCwrote1920.html
He wasn't. He got into financial trouble in the late twenties and could have lost Blenheim Castle. The Tribe sorted him out in the early thirties and he was their creature from then on. And the rest is history. As he noted at the time 'Mr. Hitler has declared war on the international bankers. And it will be the end of him'.
More ko$her propaganda.
He sold out to the jizz way before the late twenties.

Funny how Christianity has more or less the same problems.
As for Churchill himself, I'm sure he's just exhibiting his subconcious "white man's burden" cultural-superiority complex.
The Palestinians simply need to learn to keep the Israelis at arms length.
Another ZH imbecile who's never walked the streets of Jerusalem...
The Palestinains have a higher quality of life than any other Arab group in the world besides maybe those in Sweden or Germany. And all thanks to Jews in Israel. Do some research and don't believe so quickly every half truth some EU/State Dept funded organization tells you.
And just ignore the many killed every time Israel decides to 'mow the grass'? How many houses were destroyed in the last such episode, the one with White Phosphorous shells used on civilians?
The Gazans, like the occupants of Auschwitz, have been put on a diet.
They are fat.

Classic example: You choose to tell only one side of a story. You ignore the Palestinian murderers and their supporters and only focus on Israeli "aggression"; the Palestinians get treated way too well by the Zionists. If this was a sub-Saharan African conflict the Jews would've literally genocided the Arabs, yet they don't; instead they give them food, water electricity, gas, jobs, education and healthcare. Get out of here with your nonsense
Oh no, not barred from entering Israel! I would shoot myself if I couldn't fly to that shit hole country!
I am "self-barred" from Israel
I can't visit there; I have ethics.
I have an Iraqi friend who went to jizeral because he is a muslim (muslims have holy sites there since they share the same demi god) and the kikenvermin really treated him like crap when he went there (he commented about how evil they were cause they could get away with it).
They googled him and found all they could about him. They brought in retarded jizraeli women (jews are very much into feminism-they created it afterall) to abuse him as much as possible.
Evidently he shares the same name (a river) of a supposid Iraqi antisemite (aka jew aware Iraqi) who was in politics.
Muslims have holy sites in jizrael and they abuse muslims constantly.
He was abused for hours by the jizraeli TSA.
In jizrael everyone not a kike is a terraist.
You dont have iraqi friends.
Why would I want to visit contemporary Israel? It would be the closest thing possible to wanting to visit Nazi Germany.
Where do you live Mr. Socially Conscious?
Wallstrom + $700 billion on military spending = Obama

oh wonder, the Kingdom of Sweden and the Kingdom of Saud locked into a brutal war of... words
well structured and interesting article, my compliments
"It is easier to instruct small countries such as Sweden and Israel on what they can and cannot do than America, China or a Saudi Arabia that can call on global Muslim support when criticised."
and that's an excellent reminder why some small countries are such supporters of the EU. interestingly, all things military aren't part of the EU construct, and so weapon exports too
"Second, a Europe that is getting older and poorer is starting to find that moral stands in foreign policy are luxuries it can no longer afford. Saudi Arabia has been confident throughout that Sweden needs its money more than it needs Swedish imports."
older, agree. poorer... the correct way to say that would be imo stays poor... in comparison with the US, of course. moral grandstanding? Sweden? you just have to listen to Denmark. which as a whole country is criticizing Sweden for taking too many grand global moral positions, up to the fib "humanitarian superpower"
"Finally, and most revealingly in my opinion, the non-affair shows us that the rights of women always come last. To be sure, there are Twitter storms about sexist men and media feeding frenzies whenever a public figure uses ‘inappropriate language’. But when a politician tries to campaign for the rights of women suffering under a brutally misogynistic clerical culture she isn’t cheered on but met with an embarrassed and hugely revealing silence. "
here, I can only stand up and clap. slowly. face it, our homegrown feminists are all about little idiocies like a recent Swedish thing concerning how men are supposed to sit in trains, and would they please not offend the gentle sex by putting their legs together. when they are not busy sabotaging more serious matters, of course
Of course not. That would require actual opposition toward men who'd have no problem with smacking down uppity little cunts, unlike the hen-pecked men of Western Europe.
"Interestingly, all things military aren't part of the EU construct"
Are you familiar with EUCAP Sahel ?
That dude in the blonde hair needs to grow a stache.
Jesus Mary and Joe...Sweden is one fucked up country.
This feminista doesn't know that Germany just gave the holohoaxing kikenvermin a brand new shiney modern diesel-electric submarine to threaten the world with their illegal and stolen nuclear weapons.
I ask all the judas goats jewish supremacists who frequent here who grovel at israel and back it no matter this question.
If the jews are so smart, how come they cannot make their own weapons of war and mass destruction?
They have German subs, americans bombs, planes and tanks along with small weapons.
I think they make a shitty tank. And put their own electronics in their aviation (they sell the electronics to our enemies) they get from us.
I thought the jews were the master race and better than everyone else because their god chose them.
Please help me out here. I am verklempt.
Why would you make your own cup of coffee, when you can have someone else make it and bring it to you, for free?
