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."

lol, good one, +1. "brand new shiney modern diesel-electric submarine to threaten the world with their illegal and stolen nuclear weapons". this one, a bit less so
diesel-electric subs are defensive weapon platforms. they stay put and lurk, yes. silently, yes. but I am not aware of any such sub armed with nukes and threathening anybody
Uh, thats not what the ko$her master race media says.
Is there anything you won't (lol) lie about?
http://nationalinterest.org/blog/the-buzz/will-israels-new-advanced-subm...
That is not what it says. That is the interpretation it wants you to make, not the same thing.
The best bit - Israel doesn't need them all so it is trying to sell one. They will probably give a 2% discount off full price for cash in advance.
no point in re-inventing the wheel
jews arent really the smartest race ever..but they are more meticulous and cunning than you goyim.
that's why we rule over you
clever bastards indeed - masters of the dark side of the force
"the smartest race ever..but they are more meticulous and cunning than you goyim.
"
Ah yes, the very "clever parasite" logical fallacy.

Look just get it on with either the new or the first and original holocaust and be done with it. Some people treat everything as some kind of virtue or academic competition like it makes any difference. Just get the killing started and if you are the master race you'll inherit the earth. I mean, i kind of imagine you standing over some medieval fortress wall looking at the incoming mongol riders while reassuring yourself on your own virtue and historical achievements. Pathetic.
If some backdoor conspiring, on which we jews do not have a monopoly, is all it takes to kill nations, nothing stops you from picking this weapon and pointing it at your enemies.
IMHO they are indeed very clever and capable. My only complaint is that their energies seem to be devoted to screwing up White countries. I have in mind things like the following:
Demonisation of whites as the source of all the world’s ills - the corollary being the deification of non-whites, especially blacks.
Mass immigration of Third World immigrants (black, Muslim, Hispanic) to western – i.e. white – lands:
Forced integration of neighbourhoods and schools.
Multiculturalism and cultural relativism
Affirmative Action (AA) in its various forms whereby gentile whites are disadvantaged at every turn
Relentless media propagandizing of black/white miscegenation
Feminism – primarily directed at emasculating the white male (the oppressor) and the legitimising (encouraging?) of homosexuality, same-sex marriages etc.
The undermining of traditional patriarchal Western institutions (church, ‘traditional’ family etc.)
So-called ‘hate’ legislation and the closing down of all contrary opinion on the desirability of the foregoing objectives.
They don't just screw up 'white' countries. They foul the nest so much that the screw themselves too - but they have the ultimeate get-out-of-jail-free card - "The Goys Made Us Do it Because They Are Anti-Semitic and Hate Our Prefection"
If the jews are so smart, how come they cannot make their own weapons of war and mass destruction: Actual they do. So your only point is on the top of your head.
No Ghost....., you are just plain stupid.
the thing is..the death of sweden is a ZOG play.
The thing with Sweden though is that they openly accepted this filth. ZOG operatives didn't need to undermine anyone, they went out of their way to be more progressive.
Swedish Foreign Minister Margot Wallstrom should resign for allowing illegal aliens to rape dozen of women.
Nah, she should just spend a few evenings wandering around Stockholmistan by herself.
Malmo.
'Sweden's Foreign Minister Margot Wallström (right)'
Did they REALLY have to put that (right) in there?
How fucking stupid are the people that read 'Aftonbladet' ?
#1 the uSa needs to cut off all aid to israel, #2 all israeli nukes must be repossessed

I wonder what the founding fathers would think about the country they founded forcing the creation, and perpetuating the existence of (billions and billions and billions) a jewish religious-racist state that now wants to base their law on the Talmud?
Anybody ever heard of the separation of church and state? No? Might be a *little* inconsistent with American principles? You think? Because doing so just ends up causing a lot of trouble?
Anybody ever heard of the separation of church and state?...
One of the outcomes of the 30 Years War was the eventual, (and reluctant by the parties involved), acceptance of the notion of the right to exist. The 2 swords theory of the reigning religious authority and "civil" power in a jurisdiction were to no longer be allowed to reside in the same body politic, at least that's my take on Westphalia.
As long as Israel refuses Palistine recognition as a state, violence attributed to religious adherents will be seen as criminal activity, where they get into trouble is assigning criminal activity as "terrorism", i.e. state sanctioned acts of "war" when they themselves have not recognized their "right" to exist. The Palistinians for their part are guilty of no less the same reasoned gymnastics in their refusal to see jewish statehood assigned to physical possession of geographic terrain to persons wishing to worship differently than themselves.
The USA has been the beneficiary of a brutal and devestating conflict pitting rival "Christian" forces resulting in a "right to exist" that today, over 4 centuries later, we would be hard pressed (outside of Ireland perhaps), to have a Roman Catholic and Protestant believe they were acting in God's interest by ending the others physical existence by use "of the sword".
Why the fertile crescent has failed to get the memo is a shame.
jmf.
"One of the outcomes of the 30 Years War was the eventual, (and reluctant by the parties involved), acceptance of the notion of the right to exist." Whatever ... I don't care. It is time to pull the plug. The fed govt has been picking the pocket of my family and all af America for something that serves only a detrimental purpose. In a we, or, for the people paradigm, we dont have to pay, and care one iota about what happens in the no longer supported scum country. They are on their own.
Whatever ... I don't care...
Ignorance or apathy notwithstanding, the truce of Westphalia was / is the Christian version of what's happening in the ME. I would agree with your sentiments that it's none of our business how these offspring of Abraham settle their affairs for this generation, but it would be better if it could be done for more than that and without involving the rest of the globe, including the US.
jmf.
Barring a person with opposing opinions......
how Naziesque is that?
Its as ashkeNAZI as you can get.
Not a big deal.
Denied visa=Genocide?
Rothchild Neocon Zionists did 911 and just about every false flag, like ever.....they are NUTS.......so why doesn't she just go for it, compare notes with Putin and get those Banksters before the nukes start flying?
This article seems to take the angle that she is wrong - any killing done BY Israelis is OK, how dare one question it.
Zerohedge.........ZWO apologists.
Maybe you can join the jihad against israel?
So, you are firmly in the 'cannot question anything Israel does' camp, eh?
Jihad against Israel? LOL - seems the true Jihad is against Christians, not Jews.
The woman is calling deadly intervention to stop random knife attacks in progress "extrajudicial killings". That is what is under discussion. There are CCTV videos of these events.
What you see happening in Europe today is why I can't condemn Israel for its treatment of the koranimals in its own domain. Protecting civilization from savages isn't always a pretty job.
Except Israel is partly responsible for the situation right now. "Koranimals" weren't invading Europe as refugees until Israel decided it wanted to knock out its neighboring Arab countries, using the US military to do so.
How many refugees were coming out of Libya, Syria, Iraq, Lebanon or Afghanistan until this War of Terrorism? Who are the ones encouraging the West to take them, racially mix and destroy our cultures? Who was celebrating on 9/11, the event that kicked all this off? Fuck Israel and anyone who supports them.
Arabs have been moving to Europe in droves since the late 40s, and already had a long history in southern europe. But sure Israel has a strategic interest in having Libyans moving to France. Because idk, an europe dominated by Islam is good for jews.
Fun israeli fact: Israelies dont want any more land because they all love Tel Aviv and its surrounding areas. Any resources in Syria or anywhere else are cheaper to import than to steal, it isnt like war is cheap and even more when it involves the risk of national destruction.
Like Japan with its chinese soy fields and indonesian oil wells.
I agree. The accusations by some members suggesting ZH has a slight pro-Zionist bias is exemplified in this article. Reminiscent of ZH's pro China leniency from many years back. Hope ZH hasn't been nudged or worse still, threatened to tone down criticism towards Israel.
No need to threaten. Just see one advertizer after another quietly withdraw. That's the way it's done. Same with VC. If you don't give the Chosenites what they want you'll see funding dry up.
Well....the Tylers are Wall Street insiders right? That's kinda dominated by a certain group.......just sayin
How nice it must be to, as a nation, be able to do anything you want and have no fear of it being seriously questioned or scrutinized, lest the questioners be labeled anti-semites or some such nonsense. Free reign.....
Sweden, those infamous ne'er do well rabblerousers up to no good again.
Swedistan, the rape capital of the world, has flushed itself down the toilet of history. As the Natives all move away and the free money and tourism stops, they will become the Pakistan of the North. The horror of Sharia can't be stopped. The die is cast with no turning back. Those who stay behind, like this misguided Gov. employee, will remain moronic tools until they too are gang raped or murdered by their precious weaponized immigrants. Watch closely the historical wonder of cultural suicide as it spreads throughout Europe.
I hope Sweden goes down the Islamic tube very soon. First they deserve it as the people could have stopped it at any time. Second it might serve as an example to the rest of Europe. Although I'm not too sure given that in Britain town after town, city after city has gone the same way while the natives just retreat.
Speaking the truth about Israel and Saudi will always get you blacklisted by the Anglo-Zionists. Truth is the most dangerous enemy of the empire, right next to freedom of speech.
+1000
AND, bonus, it will get you a guaranteed 2-4 red arrows on Zerohedge depending on how many trolls are trolling that day.
If you care to notice that any mention of Israel and Saudi criminality, Anglo-Zionism, ZWO or any other truth about about the two states get an immediate down vote. It is easy to see the comparison of Israel to Nazi tactics and Nazism, and Saudi is just like ISIS/Daesh except they have a recognized state. The Zionist bots are working over time these days.
Dear Boris, I know you see picture big, but Ivan in Gesher Theater say only small word.
No, No I tell you later it secret is big, hint is hear and here. Bibiyahoo is yaweh and is soon no face or hands? I sorry it happen to nicer guy, however media is making rounds not as good.
Mail FBI look Ms clintn show no power to accomplish order and pissed is Brussels bribe no good policy foreign to continue! What do we now do, no travel is safe, no one love us, no keppo gay thing to wear, how hide my poor hair bald.
The so many falling people this year crimes war not able to silence more. Now every person world around is bar from Telavivi, oh shit you say where to have yon kipper.
Ok secret here come it, CNN BBC to no longer be, sure it has new baby, name that news for prizes big (_______)?
The very existence of kikeistan and it's continuous stealing of land, mass killings, atrocities, egregious human rights violations etc. is EXACTLY why the world is in the situation it is in now. Kikes are just glorified sand niggers doing the same heinous shit, only the religiously brainwashed US public thinks kikeistan can do no wrong. (That's why the muzzie sand niggers hate us, our kikeistan-centric foreign policy)
Fuck kikeistan! Press the delete button on it and turn it and the surrounding areas into a glass factory.
It isnt the stealing of a few rocky hills and minor human right violations what bothers you, but the other problem.
The genius of it all is that kikeistan and its kike operatives and citizens has been a parasite upon the US and many of the drones here still don't know and will defend it with the lives of their sons and daughters.
Fucking Pathetic.
Maybe it is a testament to my 135+IQ that I saw this even as a teenager, born and raised in a strict protestant home in the USA.
I am Jacks total lack of surprise.
That still isnt what bothers you.
Israel along with it's vassals EU and USA are the evil empire
Typical political posturing, just incompetently done with the timing is way off. She burned the Saudis, so she panders to the muslim crowd back home by burning Israel to compensate.
Perhaps "extrajudicial killings" can be twisted into an inquiry into the machinations of the Obama administration. Or even into arkancide.
And these are the same countries that are supposedly going to cooperate on worldwide climate control initiatives?
Too funny.
