One of Sweden’s best journalists Per Gudmundson has just published an article about how the Muslim Brotherhood infiltrated the Swedish Social Democratic Party.
It isn’t mentioned in the article, but Qatar has heavily funded the MB’s activities in Sweden.
Gudmundson writes;
“On June 15, 1994, the Social Democrats received an offer. 'Our political committee has had a good dialogue with other parties, but the decision was to support the Social Democrats. Our religious leaders have urged all participants in the Friday prayer to go to the polling stations on September 18 and vote; they have announced that there is nothing preventing Muslims from casting their votes for the Social Democrats, who in speech and writing defend the weak in society.'”
The signatories represented the Muslim Council of Sweden (SMR), the Swedish Muslim Federation (SMUF), the United Islamic Associations in Sweden (FIFS), the Islamic Association in Stockholm, as well as a long line of affiliated sub-associations, which they claimed together 'serve more than 75,000 people of Muslim background.'
After the election, the Brotherhood Movement (Broderskaprörelsen), the Christian Social Democrats, were given 'responsibility for developing the cooperation,' according to the ten-page report that Brotherhood presented at its 1999 congress.
For the 1998 election, the project was judged to be 'very successful, and not least through SMR's active contribution, the voter turnout among Muslims has likely been high, and many have voted for the Social Democrats.'
They saw 'room for more far-reaching collaborative projects between the Social Democrats and the Muslim Council of Sweden and its political branch.'
Concrete goals were set.
'By 2002, among Social Democratic elected officials, there should be Muslims on 15 municipal council lists, 5 county council lists, and on parliament lists in at least 5 counties. TheSocial Democratic Party shall have 2,000 Muslim members, and 300 shall have received basic political training.'
When the chairman of the Islamic Association in Sweden was elected to the party board in the spring of 2013 (and kicked out after a week), it followed a longer career in the local chapter of Hjärta (Heart) – religious Social Democrats in Stockholm.
In the new book 'Holy white lies: Muslim brotherhood in the West, case Sweden' the religious scholar Sameh Egyptson maps out how the Muslim Brotherhood operates in the Western world, using Sweden as an example.
In addition to the Social Democrats, the Center Party and the Green Party can be particularly mentioned—but the Brotherhood's strategy is to operate on all levels of society, which is why they have sought out all receptive parties.
Even the Moderate Party had a 'brother' on the parliament benches during one parliamentary term.
The book was actually written for an Arabic audience but has been translated into English.
Accompanying the book is extensive documentation on the internet, with primary sources photographed and archived.
Egyptson shows how a very small group of people controls a large number of organizations; the Islamic Association, the Muslim Council of Sweden, Sweden's Islamic Schools, the Ibn Rushd study association, to name just a few.
The operations are almost exclusively state-funded, and the overarching purpose—beyond preserving a Muslim identity according to the Brotherhood's interpretation of religion—is to give the impression of representing a larger collective, to portray themselves as the true voice of Islam in Sweden.
In and of itself, this does not necessarily have to be viewed as subversive to society, but as a taxpayer, one wonders why the state should fund these operations.
From a party perspective, the flow of money appears more logical.
Or, as it was stated in Brotherhood's newspaper (13/98):
'There are almost half a million Muslims in Sweden—together they could lift any party to unimagined heights'”
