What is this with Sweden? Have they not learned anything yet?
Europe
Believe it or not “The Swedish flag has now been banned at a primary school in Sweden. The reason is that the flag may be offensive to certain groups and breaking the law “offensive against ethnic groups.”
The sensational ban is introduced at Söndrum school in Halmstad. Use of the flag is now only allowed on the national day or when foreign students are invited.
In an internal letter to school students and their parents who were sent out just before Christmas, the school principal writes that “no other use of the Swedish flag is allowed”, according to Nyheter idag.
It is also believed “that by using the Swedish flag one may be guilty of violating the racism law.” http://www.speisa.com/modules/articles/index.php/item.574/swedish-school-bans-the-swedish-flag.html
So the Swedish flag is offensive to a Muslim. What else might be offensive to a Muslim?
IS THIS PIG OFFENSIVE TO A MUSLIM because it is a pig or is it becaue it is named Mohammad or is it both?
DOES THIS Bacon sandwich offend a Muslim? Yes it does for “Local Winooski, Vermont restaurant Sneakers Bistro has removed a sign that read, “Yield Sneakers Bacon” citing opposition from a Muslim community member and safety concerns.” http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2014/08/23/vermont-restaurant-removes-bacon-sign-due-to-muslim-opposition-and-safety-concerns/
IS THIS FLAG OFFENSIVE TO A MUSLIM with its sword of death?
Are the be-headings in Saudi Arabia offensive to a Muslim? Warning, this video is very graphic! http://www.liveleak.com/ll_embed?f=b5c8c4a0bf28
It seems like only Muslims and their beliefs and culture are worthy of saving and not to be offended! However, I digress, the banning of the Swedish flag is bad enough but also Swedish Muslims will burn their flag and ask for the flag to be changed as that cross on the flag is offensive to them.
“Muslims in Switzerland are demanding that the white cross be removed from the Swiss national flag because as a Christian symbol, it ‘no longer corresponds to today’s Muslim multicultural Switzerland.’” http://www.barenakedislam.com/page/5/
The above article was taken from an article written in September 2011. “An immigrant group based in Bern has called for the emblematic white cross to be removed from the Swiss national flag because as a Christian symbol it ‘no longer corresponds to today’s multicultural Switzerland.’
Ivica Petrusic, the vice president of Second@s Plus, a lobbying group that represents mostly Muslim second-generation foreigners in Switzerland (who colloquially are known as secondos) says the group will launch a nationwide campaign in October to ask Swiss citizens to consider adopting a flag that is less offensive to Muslim immigrants.” http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/2449/immigrants-swiss-flag-cross
Here is a closing commentary on this whole mess we find ourselves in today. This is the second generation Swedish Muslim that is offended by their national flag! They aren’t the newly arrived Muslim immigrant but SECOND GENERATION! They were born and reared in Sweden. How can this be? Is there something being taught in the mosque and the home that makes the young Muslim anti-Swedish?
Secondly, are these offended people born and reared in Sweden true Muslims? It is all too often told the non-Muslim that ISIS is not Islamic. So is there a difference between Islam and Muslim? Therefore is it reasonable to ask, are these offended people in Sweden truly Islamic Muslims? Are those in Saudi Arabia who behead and cut off limbs of people for various crimes, true Islamic Muslims? Are those in Iran that cry death to Israel and the USA true Islamic Muslims? This is not being racist but being truthful and practical.
If Islam is so great WHY aren’t these Muslims rushing to Saudi Arabia, Iran, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Iraq, Afghanistan, Egypt, Libya, and the United Arab Emirates to name a few?! For that matter why aren’t these Islamic nations opening their borders and arms to welcome these Muslim refugees? NO, rather they pour into non-Muslim nations where they CAN BE OFFENDED?
How long will this idiocy continue? Waiter, bring me a Bacon sandwich!
“German Television station Tele5 has changed its logo today to a German flag emblazoned with the Islamic star and crescent, just weeks after the New Year’s Eve migrant sex attacks in Cologne.
Tele5 justified the move on Twitter this afternoon, saying that it was a symbol ‘expressing our sympathy to the victims of yesterday’s attack,’ on German tourists in Istanbul. The attack in Istanbul took the lives of 10 tourists, mostly Germans, in Sultanahmet square, a tourist location near the Blue mosque and Hagia Sophia.”
“The Islamic crescent and star has long been a symbol associated with Islamic countries and the Pan-Arab movement. The symbol itself is meant to convey the rule of Islam and Islamic laws and traditions. Many countries from Turkey to Pakistan include the symbol on their flags and it has grown to become the defacto symbol of the Islamic faith.
Since tweeting their justification for their actions the Tele5 twitter has been full of mixed reactions and with outright criticism, leading user @EberhardFuchs to comment, ‘is it not inappropriate to to put an Islamic symbol on the German flag after an Islamist attack?’”
The response from Tele5 stated, ‘we find it rather unfortunate that the half moon crescent has become a symbol of fear. The hilal [crescent] is not a sign of terror.’” http://www.breitbart.com/london/2016/01/13/germanys-tele5-tv-channel/
What lessons can we learn from this interview?
What took place in Paris may be the future for rural New South Wales, Australia. Foolish talk? Well, perhaps not as; “THE sleepy rural town of Young in the cherry-picking heart of NSW has undergone a radical transformation.
It is now the unofficial Muslim capital of the outback.
Arabic is the second-most common language in Young, about 150km northwest of Canberra, which has a population of 400 Muslims.
Mohammad Carson, formerly Thomas Carson, says he believes sharia law should be enacted globally, that the September 11 attacks were a conspiracy and “had nothing to do with Islam”, that Osama bin Laden was trained by the CIA, and that anyone “stealing a phone” should have their hand cut off.” http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/news/nsw/exclusive-report-young-nsw-is-the-unofficial-muslim-capital-of-the-outback/story-fni0cx12-1227078385884
