> Swedish Chancellor of Justice: Muslim calls for "Death to
> Jews" are just part of the debate on the Middle East
>
>
> Earlier this year Swedish Chancellor of Justice Mr Göran
> Lambertz decided to discontinue his department's pre-trial
> investigation into the Grand Mosque of Stockholm, where
> audio cassettes with highly inflammatory anti-Semitic
> content were being sold. After Swedish radio programmer
> Dagens Eko unveiled the contents of the cassettes in
> November 2005, a charge of racial incitement was filed with
> the police against the Stockholm mosque.
>
> The Swedish Chancellor of Justice responded by closing the
> pre-trial investigation on the grounds that "the lecture did
> admittedly feature statements that are highly degrading to
> Jews (among other things, they are consistently referred to
> as the brothers of apes and pigs)" but pointing out that
> such statements "should be judged differently - and
> therefore be regarded as permissible - because they were
> used by one side in an ongoing and far-reaching conflict
> where calls to arms and insults are part of the everyday
> climate in the rhetoric that surrounds this conflict".
>
> There are several comments to be made regarding the
> Chancellor's remarkable statement. One is that it is
> important to remember in this election year that there is a
> sizeable Muslim minority in Sweden (Muslims number 400,000
> souls in Sweden out of a total population of 9 million,
> whereas there are about 16,000 Jews living in that country).
>
> Another is that at the mosque, a curse was pronounced on all
> Jews everywhere and the audiences were encouraged to
> participate in Jihad (holy war) against Jews, highlighting
> suicide bombers as an effective weapon and praising them as
> martyrs. The Middle East was not singled out. This would
> therefore appear to be a clear case of racial incitement.
>
> Yet the Chancellor of Justice opines that owing to the
> Middle East conflict, "such expressions, despite their
> content, cannot be regarded as racial incitement according
> to Swedish law". One might indeed wonder how the phrase
> "kill the Jews" needs to be expressed in order to be
> regarded as sufficient incitement to kill the Jews,
> according to the Chancellor, who finds nothing inflammatory
> in the statement.
>
> Notwithstanding the above, the Chancellor is on very shaky
> legal ground indeed. Sweden already has a legal precedent
> that Mr Lambertz has chosen to ignore: a case was
> successfully brought on grounds of anti-Semitic incitement
> in 1989 in the District Court and again in the Court of
> Appeal (1990) against Radio Islam's legally responsible
> publisher Ahmed Rami. Legal proceedings had been instituted
> by the then-current Chancellor of Justice and Rami was
> convicted on 17 counts.
>
> Here too the defence and many Swedish apologists tried to
> mitigate Rami's culpability by claiming that his statements
> should simply be regarded as robustly expressed comments on
> the situation in the Middle East. They failed and he went to
> jail.
>
> One consistent theme in these recent audio cassettes is a
> Hadith (an Islamic tradition that is regarded as a direct
> quote from Muhammad). This Hadith claims that there can be
> no peace anywhere in the world until the last Jew has been
> killed:
>
> Narrated Abu Huraira:
>
> Allah's Apostle said, "The Hour will not be established
> until you fight with the Jews, and the stone behind which a
> Jew will be hiding will say.'O Muslim! There is a Jew hiding
> behind me, so kill him.'"
> Hadith collected by Sahih Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 52, Number
> 177
>
> (http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/fundamentals/hadithsunnah/musli
> m/041.smt.html#041.6985)]
>
>
> The Swedish Chancellor of Justice may want to do some
> homework and compare the dates of the Hadith with the start
> of the conflict in the Middle East: the hadith has nothing
> whatsoever to do with the Middle East conflict, predating
> Zionism and the rebirth of Israel by several centuries. It
> is, quite simply, an age-old appeal to religious zeal aimed
> at fomenting anti-Semitism. To explain it away as part of
> religious tradition or political commentary when neither the
> dates nor the words fit, is more than political correctness
> gone mad - it is directly subversive against a Jewish
> minority that has lived in Sweden and fully integrated with
> Swedish culture for 250 years, in favour of a Muslim
> minority that generally segregates itself from mainstream
> Swedes and has lived in the country for about 30 or 40
> years.
>
> It is never acceptable to cry "Wolf!" However, if Europeans
> had cried out their warning 67 years ago as Hitler rose to
> power and his calls to arms against the Jews had been taken
> at face value, the world would have been a very different
> place today. Not only for Europe's Jews, but for the many
> millions of Russians, Americans, Australians, Canadians,
> Japanese and Europeans - not least Germans - who would have
> been spared the horrors of a war fired by racist zeal and
> stoked by racist ideology.
>
> Here is a case - one of many - in which Hitler's
> racist-supremacy descendants are expressing the very same
> sentiments albeit in a different language, and the result
> is, once again, a politically correct shrug of public
> indifference. Hitler called upon his supporters to kill all
> Jews for what he claimed was the general social good. His
> call was to kill all Jews everywhere. He almost succeeded.
>
>
>
> In the Stockholm Grand Mosque, true believers are incited to
> murder in the name of religion. And they are incited to
> murder all Jews, everywhere. The similarity in intent is
> terrifying. As is the similarity in silence from those whose
> job it is to know better.
