MOSQUE MONEY GOVERNMENT MINISTER: AN'ISLAMIST' WITH A 'HIDDEN AGENDA

by OLIV ER LA NE (/COLUMNISTS/OLIV ER-LA NE) 16 Oct 2014

POST A COMMENT (/BREITBA RT-LONDON/2 01 4 /1 0/1 6 /SWEDISH-MINISTER-HIDDEN-A GENDA -

ISLA MIST#COMMENTS)

A Swedish, Muslim minister has been accused of being an

“Islamist” with a “hidden agenda” by a former member of

parliament who said his inclusion in the government signalled

that Sweden had become supportive of Islamic extremists.

The comments came in response to points made by Green Party MP Mehmet Kaplan, the

new minister of housing when he spoke to his native Turkish press about his views on the

reasons for radicalisation and the success of recruitment by ISIS in Europe.

TheLocal.se reports (http://www.thelocal.se/20141014/former-swedish-mp-calls-

minister-an-islamist) that he suggested the primary driving force is widespread

“Islamophobia” among native Europeans, and the best way to reverse the trend was for

European governments to give mosques money.

This is not the first time Kaplan, a former spokesman for the Muslim Council of Sweden

has made statements on Islam that have caused concern.

In July he hit national headlines for saying Swedish Muslims going to fight for the Islamic

State in Iraq and Syria were “nothing to worry about” and were akin to young Swedes in

1939 volunteering to help defend Finland from the invading Soviet Union in the Winter

War.

The prospect of bribing mosques into good behaviour prompted fellow Turkish born,

former Social Democrat MP Nalin Pekgul to issue a stern rebuke in a Swedish newspaper,

in which she countered his suggestion of Islamophobia by saying a loss of identity

associated with European living was to blame.

Criticising Kaplan’s apparent immunity when speaking in support of radical Islam, Pekgul

said: "For fear of being labelled as an Islamophobe, no one dares question Mehmet Kaplan

and his hidden agenda”.

"It's unforgivably naive to think that giving money to these kinds of [Muslim] organizations

and mosques will work against segregation and will reach out to these youths who are

being radicalized”, said Pekgul: "It's exactly this kind of naivety that people like Mehmet

Kaplan are counting on”.

Pekgul believes including an MP who appears to be such a clear supporter of radical

Islamism as a minister in the new Social Democrat-Green coalition means the Government

"have sent a clear signal to Sweden's muslims that the Islamists now have the support of

the Swedish establishment".

Sweden’s Social Democrat-Green coalition took control after nationwide elections last

month, in a result that may have interesting parallels for the forthcoming United Kingdom

2015 general election. Although the left-wing Social Democrat party were unable to

significantly increase their vote share, they have been able to form a minority government

with the Greens after new contenders the Sweden Democrats split the right-wing vote and

placed third.

Like UKIP, the Sweden Democrats have campaigned against comfy political elites and

unlimited immigration, campaigning under the slogan ‘Keep Sweden Swedish’: “We want to

hit out against the elite who have let our society disintegrate for decades. They are to

blame for the problems in our society… It is, therefore, no mystery that politicians want to

be elected on the same policies which caused the problems in the first place… Their failed

integration politics is solved by more mass immigration. And the problem of begging is

solved by having even more people come here to beg”.

He is a Muslim. His loyalty is to the Ummah - not to Sweden. The same goes for all

Muslims who have infiltrated kuffar British and European political parties. Let's not forget

that Islam teaches them that they must not be friends with or ally themselves to non-

believers - though of course, they can pretend to.

I don't know why anyone thinks it is a "hidden" agenda.

It is explicitly stated in MANY of their theocratic documents that their intent is to replace

EVERY government with an Is1amic theocracy. Their "belief system" calls for using

whatever means necessary to overthrow EVERY constitutional monarchy/republic on the

planet, and people believing otherwise are willfully deceiving themselves.

"... he suggested the primary driving force is widespread “Islamophobia” among native

Europeans, and the best way to reverse the trend was for European governments to give

mosques money."

Once again we see the Muslim playing the victim status card, something they all do in

order to gain advantages, concessions and to excuse or mitigate their barbaric actions.

Put the blame on others.

And, he went on to say, "his suggestion of Islamophobia by saying a loss of identity

associated with European living was to blame.". So, it is a loss of identity that causes

Muslims in Sweden to assault and rape Swedish women and to riot on a grand scale,

burning cars and buildings. Why didn't I think of that? It's all our fault.

The simple truth of the matter is that Islam has no place whatsoever in any Western,

Christian democracy because its values are diametrically opposite to our own.
