The way the pusillanimous and cowardly governments of Sweden and Norway treated Salwan Momika was shameful, and a significant signpost on their way to cultural destruction and the embrace of Sharia. He should have been protected as a hero of the freedom of expression, daring to risk his life to call attention to the oppression and violence that is carried out in accord with Qur’anic teaching. Instead, he was persecuted by both countries, vilified, exposed to danger, denounced, and now murdered. Salwan Momika’s fate demonstrates in microcosm what will happen to freedom in both countries.
Salwan Momika was also proof in himself that criticism of the Qur’an is not “racist” or “Islamophobic.” He was Iraqi. He knew what the Qur’an does to human beings. He experienced it. When he was shot dead, he experienced it again. Yet Sweden treated him shabbily, while celebrating and coddling those who bayed for his blood.
May his memory be eternal.
“An Iraqi man who carried out several Quran burnings in Sweden has been killed,” Associated Press, January 30, 2025:
STOCKHOLM (AP) — An Iraqi man who carried out several Quran burnings in Sweden has died, a judge in Stockholm said Thursday. Swedish media reported that he was killed in a shooting in a nearby city.
Salwan Momika, 38, staged several burnings and desecrations of Islam’s holy book in Sweden in 2023. Videos of the Quran burnings got worldwide publicity and raised anger and criticism in several Muslim nations, leading to riots and unrest in many places.
The Stockholm District Court said a verdict scheduled Thursday in a trial in which Momika was a defendant was postponed because one of the defendants had died. A judge at the court, Göran Lundahl, confirmed that the deceased was Momika. He said he didn’t have any information on when and how Momika died.
Police said they were alerted to a shooting Wednesday night at an apartment building in Sodertalje, near Stockholm, and found a man with gunshot wounds. He later died, and a preliminary murder investigation was opened.
Broadcaster SVT reported, without naming sources, that the victim was Momika. It said Momika came to Sweden from Iraq in 2018 and was granted a three-year residence permit in 2021….
Momika argued that his protests targeted the religion of Islam, not Muslim people. He argued that he wanted to protect Sweden’s population from the messages of the Quran. Swedish police allowed his demonstrations, citing freedom of speech, while filing charges against him.
Last March, he was arrested in neighboring Norway, after stating that he would seek asylum there, and was sent back to Sweden, TT reported.
Momika and a co-defendant were charged in August with incitement to hatred because of statements they made in connection with the Quran burnings. A verdict was supposed to be handed down on Thursday morning.

Ooopsie……They probably would CAIR too much that I use my terror org supplied terror guides (the koran) at the range with my Israeli made IMI ammunition.

England Invaded says
Ad the numbers grow, it will be daily across Western Europe for those who do not capitulate.
WPM says
Of course the MSM in Europe and the Americas will mention little or nothing much about this ..If it was the death of a known terrorist by the Israelis in a target hit the usual people would be protesting burning the Israeli flag maybe the American flag in good order. The usual people might have rioting and burning going on in some western European towns and cities. A man who did no violence ,destroyed no public property ,I think never violently threaten anyone ,is shot down for burning a so called “Holy” book .If he was burning some form of bibles or other holy kind of books he own no one who care If he said or wrote hit pieces saying Christianity was a false religion no one would threaten him with death and carry it out in 21 century Europe. The governments of western Europe are trying to censor him to appease violent jihadist who are quickly become the puppet masters of western leaders in Europe Do not be surprise if leftist idiots protest at his funeral services .If they find his killers they will name streets after them in some Middle Eastern nations I am sure.

I’m considering getting a Quran and ripping a page out every time a Muslims murders someone who isn’t a Muslim.

Liam Oats,
That quran will not stay intact for long…

David Wood seems to do that, but it begs the question – what will you do when you run out of pages, including the covers?

This is another example for those who criticize Islam, the totalitarian system of discrimination and terrorism. Islam should be banned. 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, 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 as 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 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…”
GianCarlo MATTA says
HONOR TO SALWAN MOMIKA!
BRAVE COUNTER-JIHADIST
MURDERED IN SWEDEN, WHERE HE LIVED AS A “REFUGEE” AFTER HAVING MOVED FROM THE LANDS OF ISLAMIC BARBARISM,
AT THE HANDS OF MUSLIM SCOUNDLES.
WPM says
Islamic Barbarism along with western appeasers lead to his death in western Europe .He joins the role call of death or violence visited on them by jihadists in western Europe , no person is safe .Girls in England being victims of rape gangs , Priest saying mass in France, cartoon writers who display humor against the evil stupid Mohamed ,novel writers who blend fiction and truth in the evil of Islam in their works. Old ladies who display small glass collections of pigs in their bay windows have jihadist visit violence on them. .Young people who publicly wear a cross or a star of David riding public transportation being violently attacked .Young women and girls sexually attacked in public pools by jihadist for wearing a bathing suit. The common thing is violence ,death ,sexual attacks are encourage and are a sacrament by Islam against the unbelievers. The weak western appeasers and useful idiots are as much to blame as the jihadist themselves .Jihadis are doing what they say they will do ,what is preached in their Friday night in the local mosque .This is main stream Islam fully let loose by weak appeasers ,if someone proclaims they are a cannibal and they kill and eat people you believe they are cannibals and should not be let lose to free range their next meal in open society .It would be your duty as a leader to keep the cannibals from entering your country and keep your country as cannibal free as possible?
Hoi Polloi says
“novel writers who blend fiction and truth in the evil of Islam in their works”…. Yes to this. I’ve instantly returned audiobooks when they’ve began an introduction of some muslim hero or heroine who is painted as flawless and superior, a perfect blend of old and new worlds; always poorly written. I hope the point of return is registered and the connection made by those editors and publishers who are pushing this.
I’m currently following a story with minor bits of muslim characters. As I’m nearing the end and they’re pulling things together, it’s now obvious that this is another example of islam portrayed through the personal, where they’re all wholly superior to the native characters and the truth about islam is denied. The women have full rights, the children are polite and brilliant, the men are better educated, harder working, and more prudent, the imam is circumspect and a careful, essential adviser, and so on. Native French in this story are instead all manner of wrong. Qatari backing? I quit a lot of UK material over this warping and bending of the story to their purpose.
somehistory says
I took writing courses. One was designed especially for writing for children. A rule when writing for children is to keep things *real.*
A child will recognize when a character, protagonist, is going against what that one would actually do. For a child, the actions of a character must stay within character.
mozlums and those who wish to stay on the non-violent side, lie in order to make the mozlum appear to be like normal infidels.
It’s rather crazy when one thinks about it. mozlums behave in evil ways, but they want to appear to be righteous…behaving in the ways of normal infidels.
II believe they do *know* what is right; otherwise, they wouldn’t pretend so hard to appear to do the right thing. If they actually believed that their actions are good, they would not lie and try to hide the facts.
Hoi Polloi says
Interesting; clearly they do know they’re wrong.
And yes, Signor Matta!
James Lincoln says
Hoi Polloi,
If you go to your local library and access the most popular books on islam, 99% of them present a whitewashed version.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Seconded!
That said, today was a major victory for the armies of jihad. Pretty much like the day the Charlie Hebdo massacre happened
࿗Infidel࿘ says
One of those days that will be marked in memory in the history of jihad attacks since 9/11/2001. Like the Charlie Hebdo attack, for instance. Like Robert noted, Momika was unfortunate enough to land in two of the most disgraceful countries in the world, when it comes to pandering to islam. Too bad he couldn’t get enough to flee from there to another country, although one could well argue that there was a difference in the level of persecution b/w Iraq and Sweden/Norway
The only appropriate response to his killing should be a mass scale burning/desecration of qur’ans, as well as the people who do it being armed w/ whatever, be it guns, daggers, bayonets, whatever. If muslims can brazenly behave like thugs in Western countries, so can infidels
somehistory says
The mozlum mobs got what they wanted in this brave man’s case. They want now to use his murder as a warning to others. If enough people did as you say, the mozlums would back down.
somehistory says
He can’t be hurt any more. No threats, no hatred, no courts can reach him now. And a resurrection of people has been promised.
The government of Sweden is so twisted….he was ‘allowed’ to burn it as an expression of ‘freedom of speech,’ but he was being charged for the same thing.
As my daughter said, it was an entrapment. Being allowed to burn the evil filth was just setting him up for the court to rule he had broken the law.
The man deserved more than what he was given, and didn’t deserve what he got.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
All I can say is that today was a major victory for jihad – in the world in general, but Sweden in particular
Why are we worried about them falling to Russia, when they”re more likely to fall to islam before that?
somehistory says
I agree. islam and its evil filth….core to outer limits…seems to be winning; and so many are only paying attention to islam when mozlums are claiming phobia. And that means they don’t get the full story….any of the Truth of what mankind faces.
Hoi Polloi says
Is Sweden’s political class now sighing with relief, believing that with his slaughter, they’ve been released from the burden of a ruling of blasphemy according to sharia? In fact, they’ve been doubly exposed as sharia proponents and base cowards. He, on the other hand, is now a martyr.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
It’s like after a tiger has tasted blood. They’ll now feel emboldened to go after more innocent infidels. Essentially, Sweden is becoming a colder version of Bangladesh
