Sweden Opened Its Doors To Muslim Immigration, Today It’s The Rape Capital Of The West.
by James Zumwalt
The Daily Caller, 2015-10-23

...

A 1996 Swedish National Council for Crime Prevention report bears this out. It noted that Muslim immigrants from North Africa were 23 times more likely to commit rape than Swedish men. It is no wonder why today Sweden is deemed the rape capital of the Western world.

Even more shocking, however, is the political correctness overshadowing the reporting of these crimes. Sensitive about accusations of Islamophobia, the Swedish press refuses to sound a warning alarm for native women about who these sexual predators are. Thus, when a Muslim commits a rape, the media only refers to him as a Swedish male.

...

[B]etween 1995-2006, the Swedish government tracked gang rapes, identifying a drastically increasing trend. Unbelievably, after discovering the problem, it then adopted an ostrich-like “head in the sand” approach, terminating any further studies on them . Apparently the government’s fear of being labeled Islamophobic proved greater than its concerns about warning Swedish women about the threat. While no studies on gang rape have been conducted since 2006, one can assume these numbers have continued to rise.

...

[Comparing Sweden's approach to immigration to Japan's:]

There is something to be said about Japan’s approach to unabashedly preserving its own culture.
We witnessed that culture at its best in the aftermath of the earthquake and tsunami that devastated the country in 2011.

There were no reports of rioting or of looting among the people.
What we saw during a time of a great human crisis was a very organized society function with dignity and mutual respect for one another.

Police: Asylum seeker held for suspected rape
The alleged crime took place in a suburb of Turku
a day after a high-profile case in Kempele, near Oulu.
YLE (Finnish news service), 2015-11-27

"A 19-year-old man who has been in Finland for about a year as an asylum seeker"
has been detained on suspicion of rape and aggravated sexual abuse of a child,
the Southwestern Finland Police Department said in a statement on Friday morning.

It says that the victim was a 14-year-old girl.
The act allegedly occurred in a private home in Raisio, near Turku, on Tuesday, 24 November.

...

On Monday, police in the north-central town of Kempele
detained a 17-year-old foreign boy on the same charges
involving a girl of the same age.
MTV news reports that the suspect, who has since been arrested,
is an asylum seeker from Afghanistan.

Afghan Migrant Brutally Raped And Burnt To Death Young European Because She Wanted To Break Up
by Oliver Lane
Breitbart News, 2015-12-01

An Afghan migrant has been sentenced to life imprisonment in Finland
for brutally murdering a teenage lover ten years his junior
because she didn’t want to continue the relationship.

The 17-year-old Finnish girl had only dated Ramin Azimi for a month before she tried to end their relationship.
The court heard how she had wanted to see another man,
but Mr. Azimi demanded marriage and children of her.
When she wouldn’t cooperate,
Mr. Azimi attacked the young woman while she was out jogging.

Equipped with spare clothing, rope and gasoline,
the Afghan asylum seeker raped his former lover in revenge for leaving him.
Having completed this act,
Mr. Azimi then tied the girl to a chair in an abandoned shed,
poured petrol over her, and set her alight.

[Funny how the swine (that’s the correct word)
who run the Washington Post
haven’t run a story on this,
and the other rapes of Finnish girls mentioned above.
Might produce some cognitive dissonance with their
“The refugees are just fleeing war, violence, and poverty”
party line.

And, of course, with their assertions that only “far-right” organizations
do anything other than welcome the tidal wave of migration.]


...

Showing a flair for sensitivity and good timing, just days after the rape and murder judgement was passed on asylum seeker Mr. Azimi, Finland’s immigration service made an announcement stating that neither murdering nor raping in Finland would block a migrant’s chances of being granted asylum.

Clarifying remarks by the Finnish prime minister on the subject, the immigration service director Esko Repo spoke out, remarking that while crimes committed abroad prior to arriving in Finland would be taken into account during the asylum decision process, ones perpetrated after arrival were not, reports Ilta Sanomat.

Glenn Beck ‘Sweden rape capital of the world’ as Syrian migrants making it worse
By Brandon Jones
Global Dispatch, 2015-12-17

“Where are the feminists,” asked conservative radio host Glenn Beck on Thursday’s radio show, covering the rape crisis in Sweden.

[Hey, they’re so PC that rapes by men of color are just “collateral damage” in their war against white men.
I know about this, having been deemed “the enemy” by my English professor ex-wife.]


“Sweden now has the second highest number of rapes in the world, after South Africa,
which at 53.2 per 100,000 is six times higher than the United States.
Statistics now suggest that 1 out of every 4 Swedish women will be raped” –
this is the lead in from a January 2013 report,
pointing out how the “Sweden’s population grew from 9 million to 9.5 million in the years 2004-2012,
mainly due to immigration from “countries like Afghanistan, Iraq and Somalia”.
16 percent of all newborns have mothers born in non-Western countries.
Employment rate among immigrants: 54 percent.”

In 2003, Sweden’s rape statistics were higher than average at 9.24,
but in 2005 they shot up to 36.8
and by 2008 were up to 53.2.
[Why on earth don’t those scumbags of political correctness at the New York Times and Washington Post report this.
Oh yeah, they’re too busy arguing that the West must admit as many migrants as want to migrate.]


Sweden now has the second highest number of rapes in the world, after South Africa,
which at 53.2 per 100,000 is six times higher than the United States.
Statistics now suggest that 1 out of every 4 Swedish women will be raped.

That was 2013 data.

Rapes in Sweden have skyrocketed by a shocking 1,472% since the mid-70’s,
with 6,620 sexual assaults being reported to police in 2014 compared to just 421 in 1975.
The country is now known as the rape capital of the west.

“77.6 percent of the country’s rapists are identified as “foreigners”
(and that’s significant because in Sweden,
“foreigner” is generally synonymous with “immigrant from Muslim country”),
writes Selwyn Duke.
“And even this likely understates the issue, since the Swedish government —
in an effort to obscure the problem —
records second-generation Muslim perpetrators simply as “Swedes.”

Rapes occurring in and around migrant camps are now so prevalent,
that authorities in Germany are covering up details of incidents
so as not to “legitimize” critics of mass immigration.

Reports of Attacks on Women in Germany Heighten Tension Over Migrants
By MELISSA EDDY
New York Times, 2016-01-06

BERLIN —

The tensions simmering beneath Germany’s willingness to take in one million migrants blew into the open on Tuesday
after reports that scores of young women in Cologne had been groped and robbed on New Year’s Eve
by gangs of men described by the authorities as having “a North African or Arabic” appearance.

The German authorities expressed outrage at the attacks
and called them unprecedented in scale and nature,
saying hundreds of young men appeared to have participated.

A bouncer who witnessed the sordid affair said it looked like a “civil war” was going on and reported that women were pleading with him and other guards to protect them from the roving hordes.
That same bouncer said he saw numerous men brutally beaten for the offense of trying to shield their female friends from assault by the Arab crowds.

It looks like Europe may engage in victim blaming today and victim slaying tomorrow

The common argument in Europe, particularly Germany, for taking the refugee flood
was over the notion
the new arrivals would enrich the continent
and wipe out the unwanted aspects of European culture.
German chancellor and Time’s “Person of the Year” Angela Merkel
hoped her nation’s refugee embrace
would help clean the stain of its Nazi past.

Cologne Assaults: Police Report Outlines 'Chaotic and Shameful' New Year's Eve
Der Spiegel, 2016-01-07

Law enforcement officials lost control of the situation in Cologne on New Year's Eve, according to an internal report by Germany's national police, the Bundespolizei, obtained by DER SPIEGEL. The author of the report, dated Jan. 4, is a senior official. He writes: "Women, accompanied or not, literally ran a 'gauntlet' through masses of heavily intoxicated men that words cannot describe." The horde in front of and inside the train station was unmoved by the presence of police.

According to the report, officers encountered many distraught, crying, frightened pedestrians, particularly women and girls. They reported "fights, thefts, sexual assaults against women, etc." Groups of male migrants were repeatedly named as perpetrators.

Identifying those responsible -- especially the perpetrators of sexual assaults -- "was unfortunately no longer possible." The reason: "Security forces were unable to get all of the incidents, assaults, crimes, etc. under control. There were simply too many happening at the same time." Police were frustrated at their inability to help each victim. At times, it wasn't even possible to record all of the complaints that were being lodged.

The report lists several examples of police officers' experiences:
  • Officers were hindered from pushing their way through to people calling for help by tight clusters of men.
  • A man is quoted as saying: "I'm a Syrian! You have to treat me kindly! Mrs. Merkel invited me."
  • Witnesses were threatened when they provided the names of perpetrators.
  • People reportedly demonstratively tore up residence permits in front of the police, grinned and said: "You can't touch me. I'll just go back tomorrow and get a new one." The report did not, however, confirm the authenticity of the documents.
  • Orders for people to leave the premises were ignored; taking repeat offenders into custody was not possible due to lack of resources.
  • After track closures due to overcrowding, people simply forced their way over adjacent platforms and train tracks back to the closed platform.
  • Physical fights broke out as trains were being boarded; it was "every man for himself."
The situation, which was described in the report as "chaos," was so out of control that there were concerns about serious injuries or even deaths, according to the author. That is why the operation leader decided to clear the square. The report notes that police officers were "bombarded with fireworks and pelted with glass bottles." Even after the square was cleared, there were "repeatedly multiple physical confrontations between people as well as groups of people, thefts and robberies in several places at the same time."

The author of the report draws a grim conclusion: The actions of the police officers was met with a level of disrespect "like I have never experienced in my 29 years of public service." Because too few officers were on the scene, the ones that were present "reached the limits of their abilities pretty quickly" -- their deployment lasted from 9:45 p.m. until 7:30 a.m. As central problems facing law enforcement, the report cites overwhelmed police officers, insufficient personnel and weaknesses in equipment, which were "not to be expected." The author describes the entire situation on New Years' Eve as "chaotic and shameful."

In the days since the New Year's Eve attacks, Cologne police have received more than 100 complaints. In an initial statement on the morning of Jan. 1, the police press department noted that the situation on the prior evening had been "relaxed." Cologne Police President Wolfgang Albers later admitted that "this initial statement was incorrect."

German police report describes ‘chaotic and shameful’ night of attacks on women
By Niraj Chokshi January 7 at 2:35 PM
Washington Post, 2016-01-07, page A12

Police in Cologne, Germany, were overwhelmed by groups of men attacking women in the city center on New Year's Eve, according to a leaked report.

An unidentified senior official who wrote the report for Germany's national police described a "chaotic and shameful" evening in which a lack of officers at the scene meant those there "reached the limits of their abilities pretty quickly," according to Der Spiegel, which obtained a copy of the report.

"Women, accompanied or not, literally ran a 'gauntlet' through masses of heavily intoxicated men that words cannot describe," the official wrote.

The report contradicts the Cologne police department's initial depiction of the night as "relaxed," a description that has since been recanted. Authorities now say that more than 100 women have filed criminal complaints of sexual assault — including two reported rapes — or thefts during the festivities that evening, according to the Associated Press.

Roughly 1,000 men described by officials as being largely of "Arab or North African origin" had congregated in the square outside Cologne station that night, with groups reportedly breaking off to assault women. Victims described a sense of lawlessness that evening as criminals flouted the law even with police present.

"They grabbed our arms... pushed our clothes away, and tried to get between our legs or I don't know where," one victim told the BBC News.

Another said attackers put a firecracker in her hood as they stole her phone.

"I heard a sizzling sound in my hood and I somehow tried to get it out of the hood," she said. "Then it fell into my jacket and burned everything. The scars will stay. I was lucky that it didn't explode."

The report obtained by Der Spiegel seemed to corroborate the sense that the attackers, repeatedly described as groups of male migrants, felt that they had the run of areas in front of and inside the train station.

The report describes officers encountering crying, frightened pedestrians, many of them women and girls. Officers reported that their orders were ignored, that they were "bombarded with fireworks and pelted with glass bottles," and that witnesses were threatened when they named the perpetrators, according to Der Spiegel.

The author of the report noted a level of disrespect for police "like I have never experienced in my 29 years of public service."

Cologne was not the only European city to see trouble on New Year's Eve.

Police in Helsinki, Finland said that 15 Iraqi asylum seekers were taken into custody amid allegations of groping and harassing women near the city's central railway station on New Year's Eve. Ilkka Koskimäki, Deputy Police Chief of the Helsinki Police Department, said three women had filed complaints, alleging they had been kissed and touched against their will.

The situation, he said, might have been worse had police not received a tip that groups of Iraqi asylum seekers were planning disturbances that night, leading the Helsinki police to deploy far more officers than usual.

Attacks were reported elsewhere in Germany, too, including in Hamburg and Stuttgart, according to the BBC.

Cologne, however, saw the largest wave of assaults. Due to the overwhelming number of attacks, officials have few leads on the attackers, according to the report. "Security forces were unable to get all of the incidents, assaults, crimes, etc. under control. There were simply too many happening at the same time," its author writes.

Authorities have, however, described the men as being largely of "Arab or North African origin." According to the report, at least one officer quoted a man as saying: "I'm a Syrian! You have to treat me kindly! Mrs. Merkel invited me."

Germany says asylum seekers are suspected in New Year’s Eve assaults
By Anthony Faiola,Stephanie Kirchner
Washington Post 2016-01-08 (January 8 at 3:02 PM)

BERLIN –

At least 21 asylum seekers from the Middle East and North Africa
are suspects in the New Year’s Eve rampage of sexual assaults and thefts
in the German city of Cologne, authorities said,
as word emerged of similar acts in Finland, Sweden and other German cities --
including the alleged gang rape of two teenage girls by 4 Syrian men.

Officials said it was not clear whether the attacks had been coordinated.
But the broadening allegations were rapidly escalating into a full blown crisis
that on Friday engulfed Cologne’s police chief Wolfgang Albers,
who was suspended due to ”lost trust” in his force.
The mounting scandal, meanwhile, was quickly deepening a strain of public outrage,
prompting calls for tighter controls on newcomers
while threatening to ignite a new wave of anti-refugee sentiment in Europe.

[WaPo shows its bias with the use of the judgmental word “threatening”.
More neutral words would be “possibly” or “might”.]


Already, several European nations including France, Sweden and Denmark have moved to sharply tighten border controls,
aiming to root out terror suspects and staunch the flow of new arrivals. Yet concerns that some of the newcomers could pose another kind of security threat – as common criminals – have been brewing for months and are now surging to the forefront.

Thus far, reports of New Year’s assaults have emerged from Helsinki; Kalmar, Sweden; Hamburg and Stuttgart. No single city was hit harder than Cologne — where gangs of mostly young men are alleged to have “hunted” women, corralling them before groping, assaulting and robbing them. So far, at least 170 victims have filed complaints, including 120 for sexual assault.

...

The incidents have sparked an avalanche of outrage on social media
and are giving new lift to critics who insist Germany is staring down the barrel of a culture clash between the Middle Eastern new comers and western norms.

[No shit.
What a surprise! (To the PC mind)]


...

“The extent of the contempt and assaults by Arab men, who see women as fair game because they do not dress according to the expectations of their cultural group, is hair-raising,” Julia Klöckner, deputy chairwoman of Merkel’s Christian Democratic Union, told Rheinische Post on Friday.

The Cologne police have taken a public beating for being both slow to respond and to inform the nation about the scope of the attacks. Two suspects — aged 16 and 23 and of North African origin — were arrested early Friday, but were later released due to lack of evidence, according to authorities in Cologne.

A spokesman for the German federal police, however, said at least 34 suspects have been identified in the Cologne attacks and that authorities were still seeking evidence from witnesses to pursue arrests.

Out of the 34, 21 were asylum seekers — and the majority of those, he said, had arrived last year. The 34 suspects included 10 Algerians, 10 Moroccans, five Iranians, four Syrians, two Germans, one American, one Serbian and one Iraqi.

...

In another incident, police in the southwestern German city of Weil am Rhein took four Syrian nationals into custodyin connection with an alleged gang rape of two girls, aged 14 and 15.

The suspects included a 21-year-old Syrian refugee and his 15-year-old brother, who is in the process of seeking asylum. The status of the other two, both 14, were not disclosed, but they were said to be residents of the Netherlands and Switzerland. At least some of the men, police said, had known the girls, who apparently went willingly to the apartment of the eldest Syrian. But the girls told police that what had started, as a consensual encounter became rape, authorities said in a statement.

Forty years after the Swedish parliament unanimously decided to change the formerly homogenous Sweden into a multicultural country [!!!!!],

In 1975, the Swedish parliament unanimously decided to change the former homogeneous Sweden into a multicultural country.
Forty years later the dramatic consequences of this experiment emerge: violent crime has increased by 300%.

If one looks at the number of rapes, however, the increase is even worse. In 1975, 421 rapes were reported to the police; in 2014, it was 6,620. That is an increase of 1,472%.

Sweden is now number two on the global list of rape countries. According to a survey from 2010, Sweden, with 53.2 rapes per 100,000 inhabitants, is surpassed only by tiny Lesotho in Southern Africa, with 91.6 rapes per 100,000 inhabitants.

Migrant Rape Epidemic Reaches Austria

Gatestone Institute, 2016-05-05

...

The brutal gang rape of a woman by three Afghan asylum seekers in central Vienna on April 22 has shocked the Austrian public and drawn attention to a spike in migrant-related rapes, sexual assaults and other crimes across the country.

The migrant crime wave comes as the anti-immigrant Freedom Party of Austria (FPÖ) has surged in opinion polls. The party's candidate, Norbert Hofer, won the first round of Austria's presidential elections on April 24, and is on track to win the presidency in the second round, run-off election scheduled for May 22.

The three Afghans — two 16-year-olds and one 17-year-old — followed the woman, a 21-year-old exchange student, into a public restroom at the Praterstern train station, one of the main transportation hubs in Vienna. One of the migrants held the woman down while the other two took turns raping her.

A passerby called the police after she heard the woman screaming. By the time police arrived, the men had gone. The suspects, who were arrested as they were attempting to flee the station, do not speak German. Through an interpreter, the migrants told police they were drunk and do not remember carrying out the crime.

...

The assault in Praterstern is one of a growing number of migrant sex crimes in Austria (other migrant rapes and sexual assaults are included in the appendix below):

  • A 20-year-old asylum seeker from Iraq confessed to raping a 10-year-old boy at a public swimming pool in Vienna. The Iraqi said the rape was a "sexual emergency" resulting from "excess sexual energy." The man, who left his wife and child behind in Iraq, said he had been unable to control his libido because he had not had sexual relations since arriving in Austria in September.
  • An 18-year-old asylum seeker from Afghanistan was sentenced to 20 months in prison for raping a 72-year-old woman in Traiskirchen. "First he beat the woman black and blue, then he raped her, and then he took her underwear as a trophy," local police said. In addition to a lenient sentence, the man will be allowed to remain in Austria and, after he leaves prison, collect social welfare benefits.
  • A 20-year-old asylum seeker from Afghanistan was arrested after he coerced 13-year-old girl from the town of Korneuburg repeatedly to have sex with him. The man, who was living in an asylum shelter in Hollabrunn, first established contact with the girl over the Internet. Each time they met in person, he verbally threatened her until she agreed to have sex. The man was arrested after the girl told her parents about the relationship, which had been going on for more than three months.
  • Mobs of Arab migrants sexually assaulted dozens of women in Vienna, Salzburg and Innsbruck on New Year's Eve. The sex attacks, known in Arabic as taharrush ("harassment"), were similar to those carried out that day by North African migrants in Cologne, Germany and other cities. Police initially denied that the attacks had taken place, but later admitted to lying, purportedly to protect the privacy of the victims.
Those who dare to link spiraling crime to Muslim mass migration are being silenced by the guardians of Austrian multiculturalism.

In April, for example, the Austrian Press Council (Presserat) —
a group that enforces a politically correct "code of ethics" to ensure that Austrian media outlets toe the line of state-sanctioned multiculturalism —
censured the left-leaning magazine, Falter, for "blanket discrimination" against Muslims.

...

Vienna is the epicenter of migrant crime in Austria. According to data compiled by the Austrian Interior Ministry, nearly one out of three asylum seekers in Vienna was accused of crimes in 2015. Of the nearly 21,000 officially approved asylum seekers in the capital, 6,503 were known to have committed crimes in 2015, a jump of nearly 50% over 2014. The data shows that 2,270 of the criminals were under the age of 20, a 72% jump over 2014. Seven were under age nine, while 31 were under age 13.

According to Vienna Police Chief Gerhard Pürstl, North African gangs fighting for control over drug trafficking were responsible for roughly half of the 15,828 violent crimes — rapes, robberies, stabbings and assaults — reported in the city during 2015.
