Have some of these posters even left the US? Yikes.

Newsflash: Stockholm is still SUPER white. Don't get your panties in a knot about it, kids.

Did you go outside of Stockholm? Did you see the Muslim refugee camps, and separate enclaves in which they live? Guess not.

Wore the same Star of David through it all and got less crap about it (as in, well, none) than I do traveling to other regions of the US.

I also have a lot of friends there, including an Israeli-Swede who does express some concerns about migration and the rising tide of antisemitism. You know what he's more afraid of? Antisemitism getting swept into the rising tide of nationalism. Look at what just happened in Poland.

You know what they say about assumptions, doll.

Your anectdotal evidence is cute and quaint. But across Europe, Jews are increasingly the target of anti-semitic attacks and discomfort.... and it's not the "natives" that are the root cause --- It's ISLAM, stupids.

Most all report that they are in fear - not of "nationalism" - but of the rapid rise of Muslims and Islamization of the continent.

You and your "Jewish friend" are worried about "nationalists" in Europe when there is basically ZERO safe places for Jews to live ANYWHERE that Muslims are a majority of the population. Be careful what you wish for when you discuss the multi-cultural future of Europe!


ASSumptions, indeed. Your friend, like you, need to open your eyes and understand that everyone else around them is experiencing and perceiving something far, far different.

Anyone thinking that Russia Today and Infowars publishes correct facts isn´t right in their heads.

If it weren't for immigrants in Sweden, Sweden's age structure would be even older than it is now, and they would have even more of a need to raise the retirement age, not less.

so each refugee costs $58K per year, but are somehow bailing the country out of their age crisis and keeping them from having to retire even later? how does that work, exactly?

Per the article:

"That’s just over $58,490 per refugee per year. For reference, the average Swedish household’s disposable income is only $28,859 USD per year." They are Syrian refugees.
