Slovakia, the Anti-Sweden?

This makes me feel good:

British are ultimately responsible for ME mess, therefore all refugees must go to GB.

I think this is one of few remaining ways to legally display the flag in Sweden:

What does all this have to do with Sweden anyway?

What does all this have to do with Sweden anyway?

Sweden is more pro-immigration.

Sweden is more pro-immigration.

But this is not about immigration, it's about refugees

 

[Harry Bosch]

Generally people who are more accepting of immigrants are more accepting of refugees.

Your theory is the refugees will go home when Syria stops being a pesthole?

Turkey, Qatar Saudi Arabia, France, Britain and the US have assisted the opposition where quite a bit ended up with Jihadist groups. Russia and Iran has supported the Syrian government. There is a whole series of fiascos in Iran (some years ago) plus Iraq and now Syria. However the British public have increasingly been opposing out of control immigration where one may also argue could be acting as a Trojan horse to smuggle in ISIS sleeper cells. So far only ISIS is claiming this.

Yes, that should be the goal.

British officer created Syria, Iraq and and bunch of other countries without any regard for ethnic or religious borders.

Realistically, how long do you anticipate it will be until Syria stops being a pesthole?

My guess: 50 years. Minimum.

Bullshit. That is what SD want. This a very tragic case which in no way is typical for refugees in sweden.

In a few short years, Europe is going to have to make some uncomfortable choices.

So, one rightwing nutter pointing to a couple of other rightwing nutters on facebook somehow means... what, exactly?

Apparently, to all but the content deaf, it means "a couple of other rightwing nutters" threaten to become most supported party in Sweden. In contrast to your hand-waving, FP Journal sees the rise as serious and threatening:

there has been a defining theme of the European political leadership’s response to the migrant crisis currently facing the continent, it is this: panic. With a record 107,500 migrants crossing EU borders last month alone, EU politicians have struggled to come up with a unified response, and Europe’s political class is coming to realize the immense risk that the immigration question poses to their hold on power. A poll released Thursday is the latest data point in this move away from establishment politics: Sweden’s anti-immigrant Sweden Democrats are now the country’s largest party.

According to a poll carried out by YouGov, the Sweden Democrats, a party with its roots in the country’s neo-Nazi movement, now has the support of 25.2 percent of Swedes. Two other parties that spent the 20th and 21st centuries basically trading power with one another — the Moderates and the Social Democrats — took home 21.0 percent and 23.4 percent, respectively. The Social Democrats currently hold power in a minority coalition government.

In five short years, it seems what started as 'a few right-wing nutters' are now a substantial and still growing block of those fed up with immigration in Sweden. Oh dear.

the numbers from yougov is totally unreliable. The corresponding numbers from an statsically sound poll (not a self-registered poll as yougov) was 17%. Which is alarming but not as high as yougovs.

And YOU are RIGHT in there with them! A lot of Sweden's problems have to do with not enough sunlight and too close an association with the U.S. which incidentally leads to a different kind of lack of sunlight. The right kind of actions in the conflict areas...aid not weapons might make a lot of difference. I feel we just keep the stir going with our weapons marketing world wide. You need to look back to the root cause of this problem and stop throwing stones at minor or non players in the Middle East War Game.
