Sweden: Imams to be deported

18

Radical teachings? It’s authentic Islam, pure Islam. When will Western authorities address that?

Sweden is to deport the imam of a mosque in Gävle, and two other foreigners suspected of playing a role in Islamist circles.

Swedish Migration Board Approves Deporting Radical Imams

The Swedish Migration Board has granted approval for the deportation of radical Imam Abo Raad after a request from the Swedish security service Säpo who had previously arrested several Islamic leaders.

Imam Abo Raad, who lived in Gävle, is one of two Imams scheduled for deportation following the decision by the Migration Board along with another man. All three were arrested as part of the Act on Special Aliens Control which grants Swedish police and security services the ability to request for the deportation of those deemed a security threat, Swedish broadcaster Sveriges Radio reports.

A spokesperson for the Gävle mosque commented on the decision to expel their imam saying, “it is very regrettable that Sweden takes such a serious decision to expel him,” and added that Raad may face persecution in his native Iraq or even face a prison term.

Abo Raad’s lawyer Alparslan Tügel announced shortly after the decision was made public that he would be filing an appeal saying, “The first reaction is of course that this is not the output we had hoped for. But we look forward with confidence to the next instance.”

Tügel reiterated that the imam could face danger in Iraq and that the situation for him would make the deportation impossible to actually carry out.

A spokesman for Säpo commented on the possibility of not being able to deport radical Islamists saying that they would be forced to closely monitor the individuals who were unable to be deported.

Sweden has seen a large growth in the number of radical Islamic extremists in recent years, with a report released by National Center for Terror Threat Assessment (NCT) earlier this year noting that radical Islamic extremism was the number one threat to Swedish state security despite victories against the Islamic State terror group.

Sweden has also seen a number of Islamic State returnees in recent months, with some reports alleging that the returning members may be attempting to recruit and radicalise in the southern city of Malmö.

“It is very regrettable?” What’s regrettable is that the West, in general, left their common sense, and higher brain functions somewhere, they forget just where.
Why are western countries always apologizing? What happened to them? Actually I know, and it started in the sixties, thanks to the left.
I would also like to add, that it is very difficult to get any news from Sweden. Why is that?

Let us hope that this conduct spins itself into a world-wide activity of removing those who promote and preach hate. After all, we would not countenance Nazi supporters promoting violence against any group, or Fascist views that amount to violence, or Communist views that would result in violence, than I ask why would we countenance Islamic views that preach and promote that same violence. I have been urging our prosecutors to begin doing that which resulted in the deportation that is the subject of this article, as the alternative is prison, and I would not want to waste tax payer dollars on these radical lunatics. I hope that we see this happenstance becoming active here in the states, as I believe that these radicals are a clear and present danger to our free society.

It’s too late, Sweden, it’s too late… or is it smoke-and-mirrors. More than likely the latter.

…the definition of insanity is that you repeat the same action expecting a different result.

Islamic immigration is a really stupid thing to allow.

So this Imam if deported faces arrest in Iraq. I’m sure he faces that anywhere he goes, he’s a jihadist and security threat anywhere in the world. Nice to see Sweden finally waking up, but they are going to have to deport all the Muslims they let in to get back any semblance of a civilized nation.
