The truck attack in Stockholm by an Uzbek terrorist, which killed
four people and injured about 15 more, is providing another reminder of
the shifting demographics of Sweden.
What was once a largely peaceful country of Nordic citizens has
morphed into a multi-ethnic entity in which nearly a quarter of
inhabitants were either born abroad or born in Sweden to two parents who
were born abroad.
Rakhmat Akilov, the man suspected of plowing a stolen beer truck into
pedestrians near a busy Stockholm department store, was born in
Uzbekistan and had sought asylum in Sweden, but his application was
rejected. In December, he was given four weeks to leave the country, but
he went underground, and Swedish police were unable to locate him until
Friday’s attack.
While Akilov was in Sweden illegally, plenty of other foreigners have
made their way into Sweden legally over the past 15 years, leading to
rapid population growth. In January, the country’s population reached 10
million for the first time. As recently as 2010, analysts had predicted
Sweden would reach 10 million people in 2021, but the population
increased faster than expected during the intervening six years. Between
2010 and 2015, the population grew by about 4 percent a year, far
greater than the European Union’s average of 1 percent.
Tomas Johansson, a population analyst at Statistics Sweden, explained to the
Local
that immigration was at a historic high in 2010 and has increased since
then. Data from his organization shows the number of people immigrating
to Sweden per year increased from 64,087 in 2002 to 163,005 in 2016 – a
whopping 154 percent increase.
According to data
from
Statistics Sweden, the nation’s population increased each year from
2002 to 2016, rising from 8.9 million to nearly 10 million, an increase
of 11.8 percent. The country’s foreign-born population grew much faster
during that span, from 1.1 million in 2002 to 1.8 million in 2016, an
increase of 69.4 percent.
Meanwhile, the number of people born in Sweden to two foreign-born
parents spiked from 304,751 in 2002 to 535,805 in 2016, a 75.8 percent
increase. At the same time, the number of people born in Sweden to one
Swedish-born parent and one foreign-born parent rose from 553,772 to
739,813, up 33.6 percent.
While all those population groups have been growing over the last 15
years, the one group that is shrinking is native-born Swedes with two
parents born in Sweden. There were just more than 7 million of them in
2002, but only 6.9 million in 2016, a decrease of 1.3 percent.
While native Swedes with two Swedish-born parents were 79 percent of
the population in 2002, last year they were 69 percent. Meanwhile, those
with a foreign background (either born abroad or born in Sweden to two
foreign-born parents) increased their share of the population from 15
percent in 2002 to 23 percent in 2016.
If these demographic trends continue, native Swedes with two Swedish parents could become a minority in Sweden.
Fjordman,
a Norwegian historian and expert on Europe, Islam and multiculturalism,
believes it could happen within a few decades, while economist
Tino Sanandaji has suggested it could happen within the coming generation.
Leo Hohmann, a news editor who authored the book “Stealth Invasion:
Muslim Conquest Through Immigration and the Resettlement
Jihad,” believes Sweden will eventually cease to exist as the world
knows it, but he says he doesn’t know when it’ll happen.
“They are on a mission of national suicide, and whether
the death of Sweden comes in 10 years or 50 years is not for me to
predict,” Hohmann said.
“But it is inevitable if it’s not turned around soon. Do I think it will be turned around before it’s too late?
No. This is because at least half the country continues to live in
denial and accept the lies of the left that, to be a good socialist, one
must welcome migrants from all over the Third World and place the
culture of those migrants above the native culture.”
In fact, Hohmann said the fallacy of multiculturalism is that all
foreign cultures are superior to the native culture and must be treated
as such.
“They must be not only imported but then outfitted with
all manner of special rights and privileges not available to the rest of
us. They are automatically signed up for a smorgasbord of welfare
benefits, granted a fortified list of civil rights and civil liberties,
and then protected from the inevitable backlash and divisions that come
with this unfair advantage,” he said.
“Anyone who publicly criticizes the migrants or their special status
is automatically branded a xenophobe or a racist. How do you defeat this
type of leftist machine? After it metastasizes, the only way to defeat
it is by civil war, and I don’t see that happening in Sweden. The people
have been disarmed.”
Akilov, the Uzbek terrorist in Stockholm, chose a method of attack –
running over pedestrians with a motor vehicle – that other Islamic
extremists have brought into vogue lately in high-profile attacks in
London and Nice, France. But Muslim migrants have brought far more than
terrorism to Sweden. Earlier this month, the Sweden Democrat party
released a report showing the
immigrant “rape epidemic” that has engulfed the country.
Drawing on 32 different research papers published from 1990 to 2016,
the Sweden Democrats found people with a foreign background commit rape
more often than Swedes. Several of the 32 papers also mentioned rape as a
form of crime particularly characteristic of people of foreign origin.
The Sweden Democrats reported half of all those who were suspected of
rape in Stockholm in 1982 were foreign nationals. By 2008 and 2009,
more than two-thirds of suspected rapists in the entire country were
foreign nationals, and their typical victim was “a young woman of
Swedish nationality.”
The SD report identified Arabs, Africans and Afghans as some of the
more problematic immigrant groups. It cited one 1996 study that showed
Arabs from North Africa were 23 times more likely to commit rape than
Swedes.
The anecdotes coming out of Sweden have been horrifying. Last
October, as many as six men gang-raped a wheelchair-bound woman at a
migrant center in the town of Visby. The men were all asylum seekers in
their 20s.
In March 2016, four men in Malmo kidnapped a 23-year-old woman at
gunpoint and drove her to a bar in Helsingborg, where three other men
were waiting to rape her. They pulled her by her hair to the basement,
pinned her arms and legs down, ripped off her clothes and took turns
raping her. Only two of the men were convicted – one was from Kuwait,
the other from Syria.
Only three months ago, on Jan. 21, three men gang-raped a woman for three hours,
livestreaming the whole attack on Facebook. A Swedish publication referred to the attackers as “new Swedes,” an establishment press term for Muslim migrants.
In 2016, at least nine Afghan refugees at a refugee camp in Smaland
Mariannelund gang-raped a Swedish mother of two. Sperm from at least
four people was later removed from the woman’s rectum and digestive
system. Because her airways were clogged during the rape, she almost
died.
This is to say nothing of the
mass sexual assaults and rapes
migrants have committed at Swedish festivals. In July 2016 alone, there
were outbreaks at two festivals: At Bravalla, Sweden’s largest music
festival, there were nearly 40 assaults, including five rapes. At Party
in the Park, a free festival in Karlstad, there were 32 sexual assaults,
with the youngest victim being only 12 years old.
According to Dawn Perlmutter, a leading subject matter expert in
symbols, symbolic methodologies, unfamiliar customs and ritualistic
crimes, the migrant rape epidemic is a direct consequence of Muslim
culture.
“Muslim immigrant rapists believe that all non-Muslim and
uncovered women can be lawfully taken for sexual use; hence rape and
sexual assaults are justified,” Perlmutter wrote for FrontPage Magazine.
“Appearance, particularly for women, is an important aspect of
Shariah Islamic law. Modesty is how women achieve honor and to appear in
anything revealing brings shame not only for her but for the entire
family. Almost all Muslim governments encourage and even legally
obligate women to dress modestly: at a minimum to wear a headscarf, in
some countries a veil and in others a full body covering.”
“Uncovered women are viewed as prostitutes and adulterers, and the
prevailing attitude is that if an uncovered woman is raped she asked for
it.”
Hohmann said the Islamization of Sweden has been accomplished through
the same sort of “stealth invasion” he wrote about in his new book.
“The hardcore left aligned itself with Islam to help
foment the stealth invasion, by using open-borders immigration policies
and the granting of special rights to the ‘New Swedes’ much the same as
the left here in the U.S. has done with its coddling of the ‘New
Americans’ who come here as illegals and as refugees,” Hohmann
explained.
“They are accommodated at every turn, whether it be special
lunchrooms at University of Kansas where female Muslims can eat without
their burqas on, or ritual foot baths and special prayer rooms in our
high schools, airports and hospitals.
“But at some point, and we may be getting close to it now in Sweden,
the stealth invasion converts to an open, overt war in which Islamic
clerics instruct their faithful to launch violent jihad against the host
nation.
Several European nations seem to be at the precipice of this more
advanced level of jihad. At that point, short of a civil war in which
the Islamic rebellion is violently put down and cast out, it’s game
over.”
