Sweden is a safe haven for terrorists


Swedish political leaders’ performance in making the country a safe haven for terrorist groups and organization is in sharp contrast with their claim to be advocating human rights and freedom of speech.

Sweden's behavior over the past few decades shows that the seemingly peaceful country has been deceptively going through tensions-making and supporting international terrorism and is now in an irreversible point where it cannot continue concealing the truth.

Sweden is a country where the holy Quran can be easily desecrated and the law enforcement forces are only watchers in the name of freedom of expression. The Swedish government has been clashing down on those who protest against these anti-Islamic blasphemies, instead of preventing such events from taking place again.

In the meantime, the Swedish government has supported the plan by Rasmus Paludan, the Danish-Swedish leader of the far-right political party Stram Kurs, to burn the holy Quran.

Kim Hild, spokeswoman for police in southern Sweden said that the police would not revoke permission for a planned demonstration by Stram Kurs party in the southern town of Landskrona because the threshold for doing that is very high in Sweden, which values free speech.

Paludan had previously tried to perform the same play in several European countries, including Germany and France, but the police prevented. That’s why some analysts question the Swedish police's support for the controversial far-right politician's measures.

This is not all the story, however; the other part of the Swedish government's contentious measures pertains to its spiritual and material support for the groups that seem to be acting in the political arena, but are in fact listed in the international terrorist groups. The Swedish government as aligned itself with the Zionist regime and the United States in this policy, but its result has been increasing insecurity and terrorist attacks in the Middle East, especially in Iran.

These groups include such terrorist groups with dark background and tens of thousands of victims as Kurdistan Free Life Party, Mujahideen-e Khalq (MEK), and the Arab Struggle Movement for the Liberation of Ahwaz (al-Naddal Movement).

Confessions made by people like Habib Farajollah Cha’ab, the leader of al-Naddal Movement, has revealed that the Swedish government has not only provided the terrorists with safe haven but also spiritual and material support.

This is can legally be prosecuted through international courts to hold the Swedish government accountable for its anti-human rights policies and behavior.

The Swedish government authorized the MEK to hold so-called demonstrations while they have the blood of thousands of Iranian on their hands, failed to protect Iranian-national who wished to vote in Iranian elections, allowed those who attended Hamid Nouri’s trial as witnesses to show immoral behavior, indifference towards those who acted illegally in an exhibition displaying the background MEK's terrorist acts and many other examples.

Iran’s Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian emphasized during a phone conversation with his Swedish counterpart that Tehran deems the detainment and trial of Hamid Nouri as illegal and calls for immediate action in this regard. However, the Swedish government followed the same track, instead of addressing Iran’s concerns.

The French newspaper Le Figaro wrote in a report on May 30, 2013, that the MEK was in France’s list of terrorist organizations and was exploited by Arab and Western intelligence services against Iran and its allies like Syria.

The MEK sought refuge in Sweden after Iran-Iraq war ended to move some part of its malign activities to the country. This can be evidence by the terrorist group's attack on Iran’s embassy in Stockholm in 1992 and 2009.

Secretary-General of Iran's High Council for Human Rights Kazem Gharibabadi slammed Sweden for becoming a center for leading anti-Iran terrorist acts in Europe, as the leader of al-Naddal Movement enjoyed the Swedish government’s facilities.

He said that the Swedish government has allocated tens of millions of euros to make the country’s judiciary to serve the terrorist group and this bespeaks the continuation of the country’s policy on supporting the terrorists and their malign plots against the Islamic Republic of Iran.
