New in PJ Media:
An Iraqi immigrant in Sweden, Salwan Momika, was scheduled to appear in a Stockholm court on Thursday, but he didn’t show up. A Swedish judge, Göran Lundahl, announced that this was because it had been discovered that a murder victim in an apartment building in nearby Sodertalje was Momika. This was to have been, however, much more than an ordinary court appearance, and while the murder of any human being is a tragedy, the murder of Salwan Momika is much more than that.
All this has been a long time coming. Momika had become notorious worldwide for daring on several occasions to set fire to Islam’s central text, the Qur’an, and had received death threats on a more or less daily basis. In fact, that was why he was on trial. He was charged with “agitation against an ethnic or national group” for burning the Qur’an, which was ridiculous on its face: Momika was Iraqi, after all, and was setting fire to the Islamic book not because he wanted to agitate against Muslims, but because he wanted to call attention to the violence and oppression that the Qur’an inspires those who believe in it to commit.
Burning books is associated with National Socialism and with the forcible suppression of ideas, and so many people regard it with unalloyed horror. Momika, however, was not burning the Qur’an because he wanted to conceal what it says, but because he wanted to draw attention to what it says. The Swedish government should have hailed Momika as a hero of the freedom of expression; instead it vilified and persecuted him.
Reuters reported in Aug. 2024 that Swedish authorities were planning to try Momika and another Iraqi who had burned the Qur’an, Salwan Najem, “for setting fire to the Quran in a series of incidents last year that prompted outrage in the Muslim world and raised fears of attacks by jihadists.” It was because the Qur’an burnings “raised fears of attacks by jihadists” that Momika and Najem went on trial. Sweden surrendered to violent intimidation and discarded the freedom of speech out of cowardice and fear rather than committing itself to doing what it takes to defend its own way of life.
Momika faced numerous other legal difficulties in Sweden, including efforts to deport him back to his native Iraq. He went to Norway, seeking asylum, but was arrested and sent back to Sweden. He should have been celebrated as a hero but instead was treated as a criminal — the lone migrant whose presence European governments would not tolerate.
There is more. Read the rest here.

If things go on like this much longer, “free speech” will need a definition for the people of the future.
Like the dodo bird, carrier pigeons and the dinosaurs, it will go extinct.

Dangerous islamist controlled times ahead, until the mighty Lord Jesus returns.

thank you, Hudders. Yes, and I can understand the words of John when he wrote after seeing the Revelation, “Amen, come Lord Jesus.”

And how many–as here–will blame those who dared to practice freedom of speech for their own persecution–or even murder?

Looks like he should have fled to Lebanon, then to Cyprus before trying out Europe

I don’t think that living next to Hezb’allah would have been good for his health, either…

It was just this kind of thing that likely led to Momika’s murder.

Would have been just temporary, before going on to Cyprus and then maybe Greece. He might have been luckier there
Or maybe Poland

Europe is sinking to new lows with lack of free speech, anti Semitism, and kissing up to Islam. This will not help you. Islam is there to conquer – useful idiots!
He was a hero who had the courage to stand up to intolerance and warned of the real dangers ahead.

First you let them in (because you are a good sport). Then you let their culture in (because you are multicultural). Then you allow them to bring in their religion (because you are secular). Then they bring in their weapons (because they convinced you that they need to protect their culture and their religion).
Then your mothers, daughters and sisters are raped. Hindus learnt it the hard way.
Now you can’t stop them. Then you are forced to leave your homeland because it is too late to turn the clock back.
Western Europe is in the last phase of this evolution.
America is in phase 2.

Islam jihadis murders the body, Swedish authority murder the mind. Sweden authority is not much different from Islam jihadis.
Obs says
Today is a dark day. The days of free speech in Europe are seemingly over. Islamic Terrorists riot freely in support of terror groups, but if you dare criticize the mass murderous and pedophilic nature of the Quran, or ask who the fuck is Allah, you get imprisoned or killed. Those who deserve asylum get rejected, and the terrorists receive their portion instead. This is suppression of speech, and freedom of intimidation and terrorism on behalf of Islam. Two tier Kier and the other globalists who’ve done nothing about Islamic terror have helped pave the path here.

……………………………
And this poor man was considered a ctiminal in Sweden. How about his murderer?
࿗Infidel࿘ says
The most bizarre thing I read is that the court postponed his hearing, after knowing about his death. As opposed to cancelling it. I mean, when do they plan to have him appear? And in what condition?
somehistory says
Perhaps they postponed it because there is another defendant who was to be tried with him.
“Reuters reported in Aug. 2024 that Swedish authorities were planning to try Momika and another Iraqi
Momika and Najem went on trial.”
Just guessing this could be the reason it wasn’t canceled. Of course, with the way things are going, the mozlums would want him tried and sentenced even though he is alraady beyond their reach.

We Christians have to put up with blasphemy on a daily basis. The piss stained Christ was perhaps the best example a few years ago. We generally respond by praying for the perpetrators and boycotting the artist who is responsible works and performances. But now we have these murderous Jihadhi,s killing people who offend them . The two belief systems are simply not compatible.

My grandma Hanna Lake was a Swedish immigrant as a child to America. My grandpa was a Norwegian born here.They came from the Land of Vikings. None of my ancestors have been slaves. I’ve always wanted to go explore Sweden, Norway, and Finland. But as I study and observe, it’s the Finns who are the rugged individualists who repelled the onslaughts of recent tyranny. Simo Häyhä comes to mind. To the demonic tyrants, all I can say is “Bring it”. History will validate the resilience of some really awesome people.

Sweden, Germany, England, and Europe are totalitarian states against Freedom of Speech and Human Rights that partner with Islam’s Muslims to gain ultimate authoritarian power and control which includes recognition of Islamic Law, Sharia. Plus, Islam funds and teaches terrorism, discrimination, and violence. Islam is a MUSLIM TERRORIST ORGANIZATION against all Non-Muslims as taught in the Quran and NOT A PEACEFUL RELIGION UNDER WESTERN LAWS(Quran 2:216; 4:95; 8:12,39,74; 9:5,29,41,49, 21:921; 88,111,123;21:92; 49:15 and more). More specifically, Islam is a Muslim Terrorist Ideology and Criminal Organization of continuous war, discrimination, segregation, supremacy, genocide, polygamy, deceit, hatred, incitement, sedition, rape, terrorism, and violence against all Non-Muslims as taught in the Quran. Fundamentally, Islam funds, teaches, and promotes a Terrorist Criminal Enterprise. The FRUIT of Islam is incessant WAR, terrorism, discrimination, and violence against all Non-Muslims; this FACT must be taught and broadcast to the general public to prohibit Islam, its Mosques, and its Schools. Also, Islam is an Antichrist System terrorizing Israel, Christians, and Non-Muslims. Plus, there is NO EQUALITY UNDER THE LAW in Islam or in Islamic Law(Quran 98:6-7; 9:29 and more). In Sahih Bukhari(V6,B60,N80), Abu Huraira narrates, “‘You(Muslims) are the best of peoples ever raised for mankind.’ means, the best of peoples for the people, as you bring them[Non-Muslims] with chains on their necks till they embrace Islam[see Quran 3:110].” See also Quran 3:22,151; 69:30-32; 98:6.
Non-Muslims CANNOT have peace with Islam and its Muslims because Islam and its murderous god, Allah, demand a continuous, Muslim war against unbelievers where Non-Muslims are CRIMINALS under Islam when Allah in Qur’an 8:39 says, “And engage in war with them[Non-Muslims] until there will not be sedition and the religion will be completely to Allah…” HENCE, NON-MUSLIMS MUST MAKE ISLAM, ITS MOSQUES, ITS SCHOOLS, ITS ORGANIZATIONS, ETC. ILLEGAL UNDER THE LAW. Similarly, Islam and its many Organizations must be identified and publicly declared to be MUSLIM TERRORIST ORGANIZATIONS for their funding, teaching, and support of terrorism, violence, and discrimination against Non-Muslims(eg. Quran 9:5,29,111 and more).
Islam promotes a limitless, terroristic, Muslim war against unbelievers when Allah in Qur’an 49:15 says, “Surely the believers are only those who believed in Allah and his messenger. They do not doubt, and they performed JIHAD with THEIR MONEY AND THEIR LIVES for the sake of Allah. Those are the truthful.”
Deceitful Allah promises Heavenly Paradise to Muslims for acts of Muslim killing in a terrorist war against Non-Muslims and hypocrites when Quran 9:111 says, “Surely Allah has purchased from the believers[Muslims] their souls and their money so that they may have the garden[Heavenly Paradise]. They engage in war for the sake of Allah, so they kill and are killed…”

And funded by Sleepy Joe and his ilk. Thank you, Brother. The world’s becoming a black eyed prairie dog town. Stock up.

“Islam is a MUSLIM TERRORIST ORGANIZATION against all Non-Muslims as taught in the Quran…”
Islam is the blueprint – and its devout muslim followers conduct jihad on its behalf.

“A Murder in Sweden Shows the Precarious State of Free Speech in Europe”
Everywhere around the world know, sure and understanding that the leaders of the western countries their first duty is to accept Muslims as migrants.
With all their crimes and terrorist’s actions against the western citizens: raping, murders, kidnapping, theft, attacking, destroying and burned churches and the Christians cemeteries.
The leaders and the media of the western countries are aware if any criticize the hijab, the Koran.
But the same western leaders don’t care for the killing and the attacking against the Christians and the Jewish’s. Locally and around the world.
Islam and Muslims in the western countries by the constitution have hundreds of times more power than they can have in any Muslims countries.
The western leaders under their authorization make their countries the compactor who collect all the Muslims terrorists who are wanted from their Muslims countries for their crimes against humanity.
The western leaders from Miss Angela Merkel till all, need to know and understand the difference between Cat, Dog and Snack all are pets but not the same condition.
I cannot condemn the Muslims who are following the instructions of the Koran and the sharia law for murdered who burned the Koran.
But I condemn the western leaders who accepted and still accepting the Muslims with their terrorists believing against their citizens.
N.B.
” USA:
If only 10% of the Muslims believe and practice as is what they have in the Koran and the sharia law means we have more than 300,000.00 terrorists”
“Less Muslims, less crimes, more secure.”
“Every Muslim is a timing bomb.”
“Muslims in USA, Europe and the western countries are using their Sperm bombs, who are more danger than atomic bomb.”
“Our enemies who are living in USA are more danger, than our enemies who are not living in USA.”
“Must stop giving citizenship by marriage who are using by Muslims by deceiving the western women at least the first ten years.
“Americans’ and the western Embassies in the Muslims countries grants 99,9% the visa for the Muslims but not for the Christians to Islamize the western countries”
“Not all Muslims are terrorists, but all terrorists are Muslims.”

God bless Salwan Momika. A true fighter for truth and freedom.
“Cowardice” is indeed the way of Western governments, including Sweden’s. Stop being afraid. Speak out. Protect one another from the evil cult of islam.
