Sweden next?

This welfare income Swede who has managed to take a 2 month "vacation" to the US was arrested for involvement with the London bombings.

Responding to reports that he had flown to the United States in 1999 in the company of Haroon Rashid, suspected mastermind of the London bombings, the man said he does not know who Rashid is, and has never met him.

While denying involvement in the London bombings, the man said that the suicide bombers who attacked three underground trains and a bus were “martyrs,” adding that he hoped also to become a martyr one day.

“They are not terrorists, as they are doing what Islam requires,” he said.

Sweden, he said, is not threatened by al-Qaeda, although he told Expressen that this could change if the Swedish government handed him over to the British or American authorities.

“If Sweden hands me over to another country then it will only have itself to blame. Sweden will then be punished with the greatest punishment.”


With Egypt (again) and now the threats to peaceful Sweden, seems like the BBC meme "If we weren't in Iraq, they'd kill us last" has had a rough week. Incidently, the Egyptian target was a resort popular with Swedes.
