Sweden: Rioting Muslima screams ‘Why did they bring us here, the stray dogs, if they do not want Islam?’
But remember: it’s “racist” and “Islamophobic” to think that the mass Muslim migration into Europe has anything to do with jihad or Sharia. “The rampaging Muslims in Malmö: ‘Why did they bring us here, the stray dogs, if they do not want Islam?,’” translated from “Kravallande muslimerna i Malmö: ‘Varför tog de hit oss, fähundarna, […]
