In a shocking display of support for terrorism, parts of the population in Malmö and Helsingborg celebrated the recent Hamas terrorist attack on Israeli civilians, leaving thousands dead, wounded, and maimed. However, the most disturbing part is the open endorsement from established academics, politicians, and journalists who have taken a stand for the perpetrators.
Among the individuals supporting the butchers is Masoud Kamali, an integration investigator who previously worked for Mona Sahlin. Kamali, known for his ideas on “structural racism,” received backing from a rector in Gothenburg. Additionally, Johan Svensson, the left-wing party’s city secretary in Gothenburg, publicly supported Hamas terror on Facebook. His actions were seconded by the party’s Member of Parliament Tony Haddou and a municipal councilor from the same party.
While not all leftists share these disturbing views, there is a faction within the Left Party in Gothenburg that tolerates such extremism. It is troubling to witness individuals who are quick to label their opponents as fascists openly applaud the mass murder of civilian Jews. The focus should not be on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, but on the spontaneous and ruthless terrorizing of innocent civilians, which is the most extensive since the founding of Israel.
The cynicism displayed by these individuals is difficult to comprehend. However, for those familiar with the history and tactics of the Communists, it comes as no surprise. Stalin’s anti-Semitic campaigns shortly after World War II targeted liberals in Eastern and Central Europe, while allowing real old Nazis to thrive in the East German security police. The presence of left-wing extremism within the Left Party must be addressed.
Although it is acknowledged that these extremist views are not representative of the party as a whole, they are not fringe phenomena either. The party headquarters in Gothenburg has flown the Palestinian flag and the pride flag, alongside the recently added hammer and sickle. This bizarre combination is indicative of communist doublethink, where outward appearances are tailored to suit radical aims.
Sweden, in general, has turned a blind eye to left-wing extremism and extremism within certain ethnic minorities. Islamists and communists have held influential positions, allowing them to suppress dissent and silence critics within their ranks. This tolerance has contributed to the current state of the country.
It is crucial to understand that extremism and evil lie not in the goals one claims to strive for, but in the means used to achieve those goals. Allowing fanaticism, dehumanization, and ruthless methods to prevail is the essence of evil, which often disguises itself under the guise of good intentions. Apologizing for extremist actions based on perceived disadvantages only serves to blur moral boundaries, legitimizing any form of abuse.
Celebrating the slaughter of innocent Jews by glorifying Palestine or quoting post-colonial theorists is an indication of a lost moral compass. The replacement of moral values with an ideological worldview that justifies abuses committed by “one’s own side” is deeply troubling.
The Left Party must confront these extremist tendencies and dissociate itself from such individuals. Failure to do so risks further erosion of moral standards and the elevation of violence as a legitimate means to an end.
