Sverige blir alltmera diplomatiskt isolerat. Utrikesministerns ständiga fadäser när hon försöker hävda regeringens antisemitiska och västfientliga utrikespolitiska linje är självfallet en skam för Sverige. Wallström har vridit klockan årtionden tillbaka till de allra mörkaste Palme- och Sten Anderssonåren, då Arafats sak var svenska regeringens... Göran Persson visade ju däremot att en socialistisk politik kan kombineras både med förnuft och klarsynthet i Mellanösternfrågor.
Israels meddelande att man i praktiken inte önskar ha med Löfvéns regering att göra borde kännas beklämmande även för många förnuftiga socialdemokrater. Miljöpartiet solar sig naturligtvis i beröm från sina allierade i Muslimska Brödraskapet och Hamas. Men ett gammalt "statsbärande parti" borde begripa bättre. Snart känns det som att vem som helst med bättre styr på käften vore bättre än katastrofen Wallström. Det finns väl någon uttjänt diplomat med partibok på UD ?
Jerusalem Post: Sweden will not have any role to play in the Israeli-Palestinian diplomatic process as a result of Foreign Minister Margot Wallstrom’s hostility toward Israel, a Foreign Ministry spokesman said on Wednesday.
The statement came as the ministry announced that its deputy director-general for Western Europe, Aviv Shir-On, called in Swedish ambassador Carl Magnus Nesser to protest Wallstrom’s comments.
The decision to summons Nesser was made by Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who directed Shir-On to protest not only the statements, but to register the government and the country’s anger at what they see as Sweden’s imbalance and hostile attitude toward Israel.
Wallstrom on Tuesday called for an investigation to determine if Israel was guilty of extrajudicial killings of Palestinians during the current wave of terrorism. “It is vital that there is a thorough, credible investigation into these deaths in order to clarify and bring about possible accountability,” she said during a parliamentary debate, according to the Swedish news agency TT.
The Foreign Ministry said Wallstrom’s comments indicate that “she does not understand what is happening in our region and is apparently not aware of the difficult situation facing Israeli citizens, and the continuous danger of murderous terrorism.”
Foreign Ministry director- general Dore Gold, speaking to a group from the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, said that anyone attacking Israel over its right to defend itself from terrorism is “in practical terms encouraging terrorism.”
Jewish Press uppmärksammade återigen den svenska regeringens öppna stöd för Hamas och Fatahs Tredje Intifada. Margot Wallströms pärlband av okunniga och dumma uttalande om den pågående terrorn blir alltmera pinsam för svenska folket. Flera gånger tuggar hon om att Abbas "tagit som sin livsuppgift att gå fredens väg". Wallström fördömer också judiskt självförsvar mot terrorister. Att beteckna hennes uttalanden som dumt svammel känns som en underdrift. Byt utrikesminister !
(JNi.media) Swedish Foreign Minister Margot Wallström will probably go down in history for her comment 12 hours after the Nov. 13 Paris attack: “To counteract the radicalization we must go back to the situation such as the one in the Middle East in which not at least the Palestinians see that there is no future; we must either accept a desperate situation or resort to violence.”
Much has been said since by Israelis and Jews about Wallström, and she continues to be under attack for the vast gap between her views on Middle East and terrorism issues and reality as it is perceived in the entire civilized world. Recently, Israeli organization Palestinian Media Watch recently provided Swedish MP Kent Ekeroth (SD) information which he used in a recent debate in Swedish Parliament to document that Abbas and the two institutions he runs, the Palestinian Authority and Fatah, are promoting violence and undermining Peace.
Kent Alexander Ekeroth, member of the Sweden Democrats, has been in the Riksdag since October 2010, representing Stockholm County. Ekeroth’s mother is Jewish, originally from Kazakhstan. Ekeroth is mindful of his Jewish heritage, but considers himself an atheist. Swedish Minister of Foreign Affairs Margot Wallström defended Abbas as having made it “his mission in life to replace violence with diplomatic struggle.” To refute this claim, MP Ekeroth held up and quoted PMW reports on PA and Fatah promotion of violence and terror.
Despite the fact that FM Wallström was shown PMW’s actual, detailed findings, she denied them, exclaiming that “only the gods know” where MP Ekeroth gets his information from.
(The links below are to PMW’s original reports): Wallström: I note that President Abbas has made it his mission in life to replace violence with diplomatic struggle to reach an end to the Israeli occupation of Palestine… Ekeroth: [Foreign Minister] Wallström says: “I’ve heard him [Abbas] denouncing [terror].” Not once in the last two months with over 20 Israelis dead, has he dissociated himself. Fatah’s official Facebook page has a picture of a knife in the back of a Jew, and the text says: “Here is Jerusalem – beware.” On Fatah’s official Twitter account, just a month ago, we see a Palestinian terrorist who plays the violin on a knife. Knives are now used daily to attack the Jews. Here’s another picture from Fatah’s Facebook account, which is controlled by Mahmoud Abbas. It is a picture of a German book from 1936, that says: “Do not trust a Jew.” This is from Oct. 29, 2015. I’m sorry, but you cannot say that Abbas is a friend of peace… Wallström and others need to understand that Abbas speaks two languages – one to gullible politicians, where he claims to speak about peace, and another to the Palestinians in which he promotes, glorifies and rewards terror…”
Wallström: Where you get your information from – only the gods know.
