Sweden's Violence: A City Compared to Baghdad
Sweden now officially has a city that is more dangerous than Baghdad.
You didn't mishear me. Scandinavia, a place known for happiness,
universal healthcare, ABBA, and Ikea now has a place that is
officially as bad as a war zone. To put it in perspective, they
had thirty-one bombings last month, and they had a
shooting every twenty-eight hours during twenty-twenty-four.
Last week, the Prime Minister just came out
and admitted it and said, "We have lost
control of this wave of violence." What's mad is when I spoke
to experts about what was behind this trend,
they said a lot of the time, the
people orchestrating these crimes are actually based, ironically, in
Iraq and Turkey. The explanation is
simple. That reputation that Sweden had for being a friendly,
welcoming
place has been exploited ruthlessly by
international criminal networks.
They have exploited the immigration policies to turn the place
into a really, really dangerous country. What do you think?
Are you surprised that Sweden is so dangerous?
