Vicious Anti-Semitism in Malmo, Sweden

Nadene Goldfoot
Malmo, Sweden was first settled by Jewish immigrants from the Holocaust as far as non Swedes go.  There were no problems until the Muslim arrived with their anti-Semitic attitudes and actions.  It has become a Muslim ghetto in south Sweden according to the Swedish Atlas reader EM.  The hatred for Jews has been growing and seen in the children as well.

I have a distant cousin that I have been in contact with through the genealogy website of Genie, being my maternal grandmother was from northern Sweden and came to the USA at age 18.  Through his suggestion I got onto an English newspaper to get in on their chat page about Jews and Israel several years ago.  Most everyone was decidedly anti-Semitic to the hilt!  I got so frustrated trying to explain facts that I finally gave up,  hearing from just one person who agreed and understood.  My grandmother would roll over in her grave if she saw how her people had become so deadened to people who were trying to live peacefully.

Here in Malmo we see the mayor, Itmar Reepatu, who uses anti-Semitic language and is one of the worst.  At Herb Garden School is one lone 65 year old male Jewish teacher, a survivor from Poland who was forced to hear a chorus of students calling out, Fucking Jew!  Fucking Jew!  His students no longer are listening to him, but instead rioting by pouring detergent on the floor and throwing things in the classroom.   The chanting continued with "Disqualification-la Jew!  Disqualification-la Jew!  Fucking Jew.   When Henryk walked through the corridor students yelled "Yahoud" while pointing at him.  That's Arabic for Jew.

Henryk Grynfeld, the teacher, remarked that in Poland he was a fucking Jew, and when he came to Sweden he was a bloody Pole, and now it's back to being a fucking Jew again.  It's getting worse, though.  Now students are calling out, "We should kill all the Jews!"  Henry is not teaching Swedes like my grandmother.  He's teaching mostly children from the Middle East who know nothing about Sweden's history and who watch a lot of Arab TV that too often have the same type of programming that German Nazis had.  There are some good students, he explains.  I bet they're watching Qatar's TV programming.

Other Jewish teachers have quit.and many families have left Malmo.  Sofia was a Jewish teacher who told of asking her students to draw pictures of Jews and how they depicted them as monsters with evil eyes.  Then a student said that "we want to kill all Jews."  She replied that then they could start with her because she was Jewish.  Someone then asked if she were Jewish.  After telling them she was, they were incredulous, saying, "But you're nice!"  Some started crying and she did, too, when she heard some say that they did not mean you.

But then one day a 9 year old stood outside her door and wouldn't come in, explaining that his parents wouldn't let him because she was Jewish!  And the Swedish people of Malmo do nothing to turn things around.  Could it be because they are afraid of their new immigrants?  Too bad, because when the Jews came to their city they could feel proud for saving their lives.  How do they feel now?  Ashamed, I hope.  This generation is one of weaklings who can't stand up for Human Rights right in their own city the way their grandparents and parents did.  .

Jerusalem Needing Solomon's Wisdom Right Now


Our Israeli government states that Jerusalem is our eternal and indivisible capital of Israel.
The Palestinians want the Eastern sector of Jerusalem as their state capital. The middle East conflict is centering on this issue.

This difference has caused PM Netanyahu to ban all political events by the Palestinians in Eastern Jerusalem. He has received reports that the PM Salam Fayyad is opening two schools there and wants to have ceremonies for it. I imagine that the fear is that there will be demonstrations involved against Israel and they hope to prevent this.

I see this situation as problematic . The problem causing it is that the Palestinians are supposed to get permission before they do things in Jerusalem and they haven't. It's like the fact that we would have to get building permits to renovate or build in our city in the USA. the schools they have renovated needed it. Israel couldn't afford to do it right now and the PA had the money. Israel couldn't afford to do it because so much money has to be spent on security.

Of course, besides this fact, when you get down to it, Israel is not willing to divide Jerusalem.

Living With Terrorisms: A Personal Experience

Nadene Goldfoot                                                     
Israeli robot to pick up packages left on ground-
may have a bomb in them  

I lived in Israel from 1980 to the very end of 1985. My first lesson was how to live with terrorism. The first time I saw a loaf of bread outside on the patio of the building I was living in was a surprise. It wasn't wrapped; just a loaf of bread sitting there. I wanted to pick it up and put it in the garbage can, but nearby friends screamed at me not to pick it up, but to leave it. It could contain a bomb! Was I ever surprised. Then my friends went in and called the bomb squad. People have to be extremely careful of everything.

I went shopping in the Hadar area of Haifa. There was a bakery box on the ground, possibly containing cookies. Again, I saw the bomb squad come with a robot that shot the box when the crowd was far enough away. That was to do away with any possible bomb inside the box.

When we went into any store, there was always someone at the door that had to search our bags and purses, just in case. At the door of the junior high that I taught at sat several students whose job it was to search all people entering.

What a surprise I had when I moved into my apartment building in Safed. I had the ground floor apartment, and it had black bars on the windows to prevent terrorists from entering! It was a small window in our living room, too. I was thankful to get this apartment as I had easy access to the patio outside where I had clothes lines. There were many nights that I had nightmares of terrorists breaking in, breaking those bars.

At the school we had bomb drills, and a bomb shelter. In fact, all apartment buldings had bomb shelters. Safed was in the Northern Galilee and very close to Lebanon, as all of Israel is very close to someplace dangerous, so the country has to be protective. Just a few years ago Safed was shelled in the Lebanon-Israel War and many building were damaged. My neighbors wrote to me about their experience. Nearby was a school and a graveyard filled with students from a terrorist attack on the school! It seems that terrorists like to attack women and children especially. I remember a day when the school showed the community all of the containers that are used to conceal bombs of some sort or other. Big or small, every manufactured container was used. As soon as children start toddling around, they have to be taught not to pick a thing up outside.

Not only stores and schools have to check out people, but Israel's borders have checkpoints where people are entering. On November 2, 2002, a van with boxes of jeans wanted to go through. Soldiers found that one of the men inside was wanted. Soldiers found in the last searched box an explosive belt being delivered to a suicide bomber.

Two weeks later, a taxi was found two very heavy computers and inside again were explosive belts, plus a bag with a gun.

On June 8, 2008, an 18 year old Palestinian was arrested at the Hawara checkkpoint near Nablus because he was carrying 6 pipe bombs, an ammunition cartridge and bullets, and a bag of gunpowder. The military police said that it was routine for them to find bombs every day. They also find knives and other weapons. Three weeks earlier they arrested a Palestinians carrying 5 pipe bombs that he had on his chest to act as an explosives belt.

As recently as October 5, 2008, two pipe bombs were found in a package that a Palestinian man at the Hawara checkpoint near Nablus was carrying.

Anti-Israel propaganda is trying to make a case that Israeli soldiers are harassing Palestinians at checkpoints. Soldiers are not trying to harass, only trying to do their job. At one checkpoint north of Jerusalem, a Palestinian woman pushing a baby stroller was found to have concealed in it a pistol, 2 ammunition clips and a knife. On another occasion a woman was hiding her brother's gun in her underpants. Another woman hid a hand grenade under her baby!

Everytime our soldiers relax their policy and leave checkpoints, terrorists take advantage to launch more attacks on Israeli citizens, so it's necessary. The campaign of violence and terror that the Palestinians continue against Israelis causes checkpoints to exist. The goal is protection, not humiliation of Palestinians.
