Senast var Sahlin med och beundrade Fatah - vars stadgar då sa:
Artikel (12) Fullständig befrielse av Palestina, och utrotande av den sionistiska ekonomiska, politiska, militära och kulturella existensen.
Artikel (19) Väpnad kamp är en strategi och inte en taktik, och det palestinska arabiska folkets väpnade revolution är en avgörande faktor i befrielsekampen att utrota den sionistiska existensen, och denna kamp kommer inte att upphöra innan den sionistiska staten rivs och Palestina är helt befriat.
Article (12) Complete liberation of Palestine, and eradication of Zionist economic, political, military and cultural existence.
Article (19) Armed struggle is a strategy and not a tactic, and the Palestinian Arab People's armed revolution is a decisive factor in the liberation fight and in uprooting the Zionist existence, and this struggle will not cease unless the Zionist state is demolished and Palestine is completely liberated.
Under Kongressen där Sahlin var med och applåderade, skrev de gamla terroristerna nya stadgar, där det bl.a. stod att de gamla fortfarande var giltiga.
Om Abbas: "Abbas's term as President expired 15 January 2009". Tala om det för den svenska regeringen.
Utdraget ovan är alltså vad Löfvén och Wallström och Sahlin erkänt som Abbas stadgar vad gäller umgänget med Israel. Trots attackerar svenskarna konstant Netanyahu, inte Abbas. Ser du nån logik i att ge Abbas dessa enorma mängder pengar utan någon redovisningsskyldighet? Abbas har inte lovat att inte ge pengar till terroristers eller mordbrännares försörjning! Abbas har redovisat de mängder pengar som ges till Terrororganisationen Hamas från donationer till honom..Vänstern överallt tycks vara lika makaber, också i Europa. Beskrivningen här stämmer rätt väl även om den gäller för USA..
Svenska nyhetsblaskor hoppas fortfarande på magi till Hillarys fördel, sök efter rubriken till denna artikel. Tyvärr misslyckades försöket att upphöja landsförrädaren Hillary.Inte ens Obama håller med henne. En anledning kan du ana om du Googlar på Obama election fraudDvs Obamas valfusk. Googla på det uttrycket, så får du mer än 2 miljoner hits och Obama vill inte att folk börjar rota i det. Han har säkerligen lärt Hillary ett trick eller två liksom han gjorde med terroristen Morsi.
Trump's presidency isn't even official yet. But that hasn't stopped his opponents from demanding a vote recount in Wisconsin, a blue state he won.
The leading voice in the recount is the Green Party's 2016 presidential candidate, Jill Stein.
Yet, Stein's voice didn't catch as many ears as she might have hoped during the race. She obtained a little over a million votes, which is about 1% of the popular vote.
“After a divisive and painful presidential race, reported hacks into voter and party databases and individual email accounts are causing many American to wonder if our election results are reliable. These concerns need to be investigated before the 2016 presidential election is certified. We deserve elections we can trust.”
Trump's defeated opponent, Hillary Clinton, denies that there was any foul play with the election results. But her team is still joining Stein in the recount process in Wisconsin. And if there are recounts in Pennsylvania and Michigan, they will join those efforts, too.
The chances of a state flipping are slim. And now the Obama administration is weighing in on the matter. But they're not in the corner you'd expect.
The Obama administration said it has seen no evidence of hackers tampering with the 2016 presidential election, even as recount proceedings began in Wisconsin.
“We stand behind our election results, which accurately reflect the will of the American people,” a senior administration official told POLITICO late Friday.
“The federal government did not observe any increased level of malicious cyber activity aimed at disrupting our electoral process on election day,” the official added. “We believe our elections were free and fair from a cybersecurity perspective.”
In other words, Hillary Clinton's dreams of being president just took an even bigger blow. And from the administration that promoted and defended her White House run. Ouch.
För några år sedan kollade jag Sveriges bidrag tillUNRWA, den del av FN:s flyktinghjälp som enbart går till "palestinier", ett bidrag som nästan är lika stort som till världens övriga flyktingar tillsammans. Sveriges bidrag då per medborgare var 10 gånger så stort som de europeiska genomsnittet.Löfvéns babblande och Sveriges helt påhittade tyckande (länk) är så absurt att till och med han borde inse de logiska kullerbyttorna.Han anser där.* mål med alla miljarderna är: självständig, livskraftig, sammanhängande och demokratiskä Har en enda positiv sak hänt sen Abbas fick denna enorma summa från oss pensionärer utan redovisningskrav? Är även inom area A, B demokrati att det finns ett antal "palestinska flyktingar"? År det demokrati att Abbas vill tvinga alla "palestinska flyktingar" till ett land med ett främmande folk med annan kultur och religion som de har lärt sej hata, dä- enligt Löfvéns förhoppning om att det ska ge fred? (länk) Så länge det är Abbas ord, hur kan Löfvén och medspelare inbilla sej vansinnigheter? Det går tydligen med svetsarutbildning.
I myself have vetted the Facebook pages of Palestinian schools and I am shocked by the violent extremism that is part of the education reflected in Facebook posts.

According to a new study from the Center for Near East Policy Research (CFNEPR), 240 textbooks used in the Palestinian refugee camps contain the message of violent extremism. The textbooks have been used in the UN agency UNRWA's school curriculum. Sweden as one of UNRWA's major financiers, contributing over 35 million US dollars a year to the organization , has a great responsibility to stop the extremism.
I myself have vetted the Facebook pages of Palestinian schools and I am shocked by the violent extremism that is part of the education reflected in Facebook posts. On a Syrian UNRWA school's Facebook page, I have found drawings that children have posted on the wall of their classroom. One shows a masked person who is shooting with a rifle. "We shall liberate the country with our guns and our blood," it says in Arabic text within the drawing. Another drawing shows a bloody sword called "The Sword of Righteousness." The same drawing also depicts a Star of David crushed by a map of Israel, painted in the colors of the Palestinian flag. The text within the drawing states, "We shall conquer it, we return to victory."
The drawings clearly reflect what is taught in UNRWA schools. According to the Israeli institute CFNEPR's documentation, the following elements are constants in UNRWA's teaching: The denial of Jewish holy sites and Jews' legitimate presence in the Holy Land, violent struggle and demonization of Jews and the State of Israel.
We must all understand that exposing a child to an education that promotes violence constitutes a mental assault on the child.
In other words, it is the terrorist organization Hamas and the Palestinian Authority's extreme ideology that is being taught in UNRWA classrooms.
The Palestinian children are brainwashed to value death more than life and hate more than love at the Swedish funded schools.
It is obvious that not only Jews are the victims of this abusive, extremist ideology taught at UNRWA schools.
We must all understand that exposing a child to an education that promotes violence constitutes a mental assault on the child.
The UNRWA schools not only embrace the ideology of terror organizations, they also have close connections with such organizations. In social media, UNRWA schools document the pupils' meetings with terrorist networks. Hamas also brags that several of its "martyred" terrorists have an UNRWA education. Education in UN schools should lead to the shaping of peaceful and democratic individuals but UNRWA schools serve as recruitment centers for terrorist organizations, my observations as well as CFNEPR's research reveal.
But it is not yet too late to save coming generations of Palestinian children from violent extremism.
Recently, CFNEPR's director David Bedein visited the Swedish parliament. He spoke to Swedish lawmakers about the extremist elements of UNRWA textbooks and the violent attitudes that Palestinian children in UNRWA schools express.
Now that our parliamentarians are aware of the extremism in UNRWA schools, they must make every effort to make sure that it ceases and that this blatant abuse of children discontinues .
Sweden being the sixth largest donor to UNRWA has a unique opportunity and an important responsibility to influence the organization; to change the teaching from promoting violence to promoting peace. Sweden must also make sure that there is zero tolerance of violent extremism in all of the education that Sweden, the EU and the UN support financially.
Ultimately it is about treating all children equally. What we do not want Swedish children to be exposed to, we should not tolerate that Palestinian children are exposed to through Swedish funding. When violent extremism is not present in the education, a real peace process can start and a hopeful future for the Palestinian children.

Försök hitta var det står att muslimer begått mordbränderna! Tolv personer har gripits för bränderna som rasat i Israel under de senaste dagarna, skriver Haaretz. Omvärlden – och palestinierna – kommer nu till Israels undsättning.
Tiotusentals invånare har evakuerats från sina hem under de senaste dagarna, nu senast har Harashim i norra Israel utrymts sedan en brand uppstått i närheten av staden. Två fängelser har tömts i landet, och under natten var invånarna i Beit Meir tvungna att fly en skogsbrand som uppstått i bergen utanför Jerusalem, skriver Yedioth Ahronoth.
Brandkåren har däremot lyckats tygla branden som hotade storstaden Haifa, landets tredje största stad.
Flera länder hjälper till i arbetet med att släcka elden: USA, Ryssland, Italien, Turkiet, Grekland, Kroatien, Cypern och den palestinska myndigheten har skickat utrustning och manskap. USA flyger in en jumbojet som byggts om för att kunna vattenbomba.
“Israel is burning” becomes a popular hashtag on Twitter as Arabs rejoice in Israel's fires. Bennett tweets back.
The Arab world took to social media on Thursday to celebrate the wildfires that have broken out across Israel.
The hashtag in Arabic “Israel is burning” became especially popular on Twitter as Arabs rejoiced the fact that tens of thousands of Israelis were forced to evacuate from their homes.
The hashtag became especially popular in Egypt, reported the Walla! Hebrew-language website, where many Twitter users claimed that the fires were "punishment from God" for the so-called “Muezzin Law” which would prohibit mosques from using loudspeakers to call for prayer.
"Allah will burn their hearts," tweeted Kuwaiti cleric Nabil Ali al-Awad, who has nearly 8.6 million Twitter followers, according to Walla!.
"He will burn their homes, their money and their cemeteries, because of what they did the faithful," he added.
Kuwaiti preacher Mishary Rashid Alafasy, who has 11.6 million followers on Twitter, tweeted wishes of success to the fires.
Meanwhile, Ofir Gendelman, the Prime Minister’s spokesman for the Arab media, took to Twitter himself to condemn the phenomenon.
“Arabs & Palestinians on social media rejoice over the wildfires that have erupted across Israel. Despicable fanatic hatred. #Israelisburning,” he tweeted.
BDS betyder att bojkotta judarna likt Nazisterna gjorde och som BDS-rörelsen tar upp nu. Det har absolut inget att göra med någon slags hjälp till palaraber, tvärtom har många förlorat alla möjligheter att föda sin familj, många araber i judiska företag i area C, som BDS aggressivt attackerat. har förlorat sitt arbete och BDS bara skrattar åt dom. Abbas erbjuder ingen arbetslöshetsförsäkring utan behöver donationerna till sitt eget palats.
If you want to understand why no rational person should take the United Nations seriously, consider the following three facts: Last week, the World Health Organization, a UN agency, named Israel the first country in the world to be awarded its highest ranking for medical emergency response teams deployed overseas. In other words, the organization deemed the Israel Defense Forces its first responder of choice for any disaster worldwide. Two weeks ago, the daily Israel Hayomreported that the UN’s peacekeeping service asked Israel to train its peacekeepers in emergency field medicine; the seminar is expected to take place in the coming weeks. And every year, this same UN labels Israel the world’s worst violator of health rights, the only country deserving of a country-specific condemnation.

Hamas in Gaza is facing an acute financial crisis, as its overseas cash sources are drying up. This is forcing the Islamist regime and its armed terrorist wing, the Izzadin Al-Qassam Brigades, to resort to increasingly desperate measures, such as using international aid organizations to funnel cash away from Gazan civilians.
jag är ganska säker på att de vanliga antisemitiska gapmonstren som Abbas och hans kollegor på UNESCO kommer att hojta eftersom de alltid gör det. Varför skulle Israel bry sej om det? Lika lite som om Löfvén visar sin vanliga okunnighet..

Förstår DU vart Europa är på väg? Ett par gånger stoppades muslimerna medan Europa fortfarande hade självbevarelsedrift och ledarna inte hade hjärnor som ruttna meloner. Det var rätt länge sen, innan våra ledare ville ha ett EU så likt Syrien och Irak som möjligt. GP:s åsikt om åsiktsfrihet, "den hätskt EU- och islamfientlige Geert Wilders håller på att göra sitt PVV till största parti i det nederländska valet". Smaka på andan det är utspytt uti.
Mr. President, Members of the Court,When I decided to address you here today, by making a final statement in this trial against freedom of speech, many people reacted by telling me it is useless. That you, the court, have already written the sentencing verdict a while ago. That everything indicates that you have already convicted me. And perhaps that is true. Nevertheless, here I am. Because I never give up. And I have a message for you and the Netherlands.For centuries, the Netherlands are a symbol of freedom.When one says Netherlands, one says freedom. And that is also true, perhaps especially, for those who have a different opinion than the establishment, the opposition. And our most important freedom is freedom of speech.We, Dutch, say whatever is close to our hearts. And that is precisely what makes our country great. Freedom of speech is our pride.And that, precisely that, is at stake here, today.I refuse to believe that we are simply giving this freedom up. Because we are Dutch. That is why we never mince our words. And I, too, will never do that. And I am proud of that. No-one will be able to silence me.Moreover, members of the court, for me personally, freedom of speech is the only freedom I still have. Every day, I am reminded of that. This morning, for example. I woke up in a safe-house. I got into an armored car and was driven in a convoy to this high security courtroom at Schiphol. The bodyguards, the blue flashing lights, the sirens. Every day again. It is hell. But I am also intensely grateful for it.Because they protect me, they literally keep me alive, they guarantee the last bit of freedom left to me: my freedom of speech. The freedom to go somewhere and speak about my ideals, my ideas to make the Netherlands -- our country -- stronger and safer. After twelve years without freedom, after having lived for safety reasons, together with my wife, in barracks, prisons and safe-houses, I know what lack of freedom means.I sincerely hope that this will never happen to you, members of the court. That, unlike me, you will never have to be protected because Islamic terror organizations, such as Al-Qaeda, the Taliban and ISIS, and who knows how many individual Muslims, want to murder you. That you will no longer be allowed to empty your own mailbox, need to carry a bulletproof vest at meetings, and that there are police officers guarding the door whenever you use the bathroom. I hope you will be spared this.However, if you would have experienced it -- no matter how much you disagree with my views -- you might perhaps understand that I cannot remain silent. That I should not remain silent. That I must speak. Not just for myself, but for the Netherlands, our country. That I need to use the only freedom that I still have to protect our country. Against Islam and against terrorism. Against immigration from Islamic countries. Against the huge problem with Moroccans in the Netherlands. I cannot remain silent about it; I have to speak out. That is my duty, I have to address it, I must warn for it, I have to propose solutions for it.I had to give up my freedom to do this and I will continue. Always. People who want to stop me will have to murder me first.And so, I stand here before you. Alone. But I am not alone. My voice is the voice of many. In 2012, nearly 1 million Dutch have voted for me. And there will be many more on March 15th.According to the latest poll, soon, we are going to have two million voters. Members of the court, you know these people. You meet them every day. As many as one in five Dutch citizens would vote the Party for Freedom, today. Perhaps your own driver, your gardener, your doctor or your domestic aid, the girlfriend of a registrar, your physiotherapist, the nurse at the nursing home of your parents, or the baker in your neighborhood. They are ordinary people, ordinary Dutch. The people I am so proud of.They have elected me to speak on their behalf. I am their spokesman. I am their representative. I say what they think. I speak on their behalf. And I do so determinedly and passionately. Every day again, including here, today.So, do not forget that, when you judge me, you are not just passing judgment on a single man, but on millions of men and women in the Netherlands. You are judging millions of people. People who agree with me. People who will not understand a conviction. People who want their country back, who are sick and tired of not being listened to, who cherish freedom of expression.Members of the court, you are passing judgment on the future of the Netherlands. And I tell you: if you convict me, you will convict half of the Netherlands. And many Dutch will lose their last bit of trust in the rule of law.
Geert Wilders in court, November 23, 2016. (Image source: NPO Nieuws video screenshot)
Of course, I should not have been subjected to this absurd trial. Because this is a political trial. It is a political trial because political issues have to be debated in Parliament and not here. It is a political trial because other politicians -- from mostly government parties -- who spoke about Moroccans have not been prosecuted. It is a political trial because the court is being abused to settle a political score with an opposition leader whom one cannot defeat in Parliament.This trial here, Mr. President, it stinks. It would be appropriate in Turkey or Iran, where they also drag the opposition to court. It is a charade, an embarrassment for the Netherlands, a mockery of our rule of law.And it is also an unfair trial because, earlier, one of you -- Mrs. van Rens -- commented negatively on the policy of my party and the successful challenge in the previous Wilders trial. Now, she is going to judge me.What have I actually done to deserve this travesty? I have spoken about fewer Moroccans at a market, and I have asked questions of PVV members during a campaign event. And I did so, members of the court, because we have a huge problem with Moroccans in this country. And almost no-one dares to speak about it or take tough measures. My party alone has been speaking about this problem for years.Just look at these past weeks: Moroccan fortune-seekers stealing and robbing in Groningen, abusing our asylum system, and Moroccan youths terrorizing entire neighborhoods in Maassluis, Ede and Almere. I can give tens of thousands of other examples -- almost everyone in the Netherlands knows them or has personally experienced nuisance from criminal Moroccans. If you do not know them, you are living in an ivory tower.I tell you: If we can no longer honestly address problems in the Netherlands, if we are no longer allowed to use the word "alien," if we, Dutch, are suddenly racists because we want Black Pete to remain black, if we only go unpunished if we want more Moroccans or else are dragged before a criminal court, if we sell out our hard-won freedom of expression, if we use the courts to silence an opposition politician, who threatens to become Prime Minister, then this beautiful country will be doomed. That is unacceptable, because we are Dutch and this is our country.And again, what on earth have I done wrong? How can the fact be justified that I have to stand here as a suspect, as if I robbed a bank or committed murder?I only spoke about Moroccans at a market and asked a question at an election-night meeting. And anyone who has the slightest understanding of politics, knows that the election-night meetings of every party consist of political speeches full of slogans, one-liners and making maximum use of the rules of rhetoric. That is our job. That is the way it works in politics.Election nights are election nights, with rhetoric and political speeches; not university lectures, in which every paragraph is scrutinized for 15 minutes from six points of view. It is simply crazy that the Public Prosecutor now uses this against me, as if one would blame a football player for scoring a hattrick.Indeed, I said at the market, in the beautiful Hague district of Loosduinen: "if possible fewer Moroccans." Mark that I did so a few minutes after a Moroccan lady came to me and told me she was going to vote PVV because she was sick and tired of the nuisance caused by Moroccan youths.And on election night, I began by asking the PVV audience "Do you want more or less EU," and I also did not explain in detail why the answer might be less. Namely, because we need to regain our sovereignty and reassert control over our own money, our own laws and our own borders. I did not do that.Then, I asked the public "Do you want more or less Labour Party." And, again, I did not explain in detail why the answer might be less. Namely, because they are the biggest cultural relativists, willfully blind and Islam-hugging cowards in Parliament. I did not say that.And then I asked, "Do you want more or fewer Moroccans," and again, I did not explain in detail why the answer might be fewer. Namely, because people with Moroccan nationality are overrepresented in the Netherlands in crime, benefit dependency and terror. And that we want to achieve this by expelling criminals with Moroccan nationality after denaturalizing them of their Dutch nationality, by a stricter immigration policy and an active voluntary repatriation policy. Proposals that we have made in our election manifesto from the day I founded the Party for Freedom.I explained this in several interviews on national television, both between the statement at the market and election night, as well as on election night a few moments after I had asked the said questions. It is extremely malicious and false of the Public Prosecutor to want to disregard that context.Disgusting -- I have no other words for it -- are the actions of other politicians, including the man who for a few months may still call himself Prime Minister. Their, and especially his, actions after the said election night constituted real persecution, a witch hunt. The government created an atmosphere in which it had to come to trial.Prime Minister Rutte even told small children during the youth news that I wanted to expel them, and then reassured them that this would not happen. As if I had said anything of that kind. It is almost impossible to behave viler and falser.But, also, the then Minister of Security and Justice -- who, it should be noted, is the political boss of the Public Prosecutor -- called my words disgusting and even demanded that I take them back. A demand of the Minister of Justice -- you do not have to be named Einstein to predict what will happen next, what the Public Prosecutor will do, if you do not comply to the demand of the Minister of Justice.The Interior Minister and the Deputy Prime Minister, too, both from the Labour Party, expressed themselves similarly. In short, the government left the Public Prosecutor no option than to prosecute me. Hence, in this trial, the Officers of Justice are not representatives of an independent Public Prosecutor, but accomplices of this government.Mr. President, the elite also facilitated the complaints against me. With pre-printed declaration forms, which were brought to the mosque by the police. In which, it has to be noted, the police sometimes said that they, too, were of the opinion that my statements were inadmissible.And a sample taken by us showed that some complaints were the result of pure deception, intimidation and influence. People thought they were going to vote; they not even know my name, did not realize what they were signing or declared that they did not feel to be discriminated against by me at all.Someone said that, at the As Soenah mosque, after Friday prayers alone, 1,200 complaints were lodged because it was thought to be an election. There were parades, led by mayors and aldermen, like in Nijmegen, where CDA mayor Bruls was finally able to show off his deep-seated hatred of the PVV. The police had extra opening hours, offered coffee and tea, there were dancing and singing Moroccans accompanied by a real oompah band in front of a police station. They turned it into a big party.But meanwhile, two representative polls, one commissioned by the PVV, the other commissioned by De Volkskrant, showed that, apart from the government and media elite, 43% of the Dutch people, around 7 million people, agree with me. Want fewer Moroccans. You will be very busy if the Public Prosecutor is going to prosecute all these 7 million people.People will never understand that other politicians -- especially from government parties -- and civil servants who have spoken about Moroccans, Turks and even PVV members, are being left alone and not prosecuted by the Public Prosecutor.Like Labour leader Samsom, who said that Moroccan youths have a monopoly on ethnic nuisance.Or Labour chairman Spekman, who said Moroccans should be humiliated.Or Labour alderman Oudkerk, who spoke about f*cking Moroccans.Or Prime Minister Rutte, who said that Turks should get lost.And what about police chief Joop van Riessen, who said about me on television -- I quote literally: "Basically one would feel inclined to say: let's kill him, just get rid of him now and he will never surface again"?And in reference to PVV voters, van Riessen declared: "Those people must be deported, they no longer belong here." End of quote. The police chief said that killing Wilders was a normal reaction. That is hatred, Mr. President, pure hatred -- and not by us, but against us. And the Public Prosecutor did not prosecute Mr. Van Riessen.But the Public Prosecutor does prosecute me. And demands a conviction based on nonsensical arguments about race and concepts that are not even in the law. It accuses and suspects me of insulting a group and inciting hatred and discrimination on grounds of race. How much crazier can it become? Race. What race?I spoke and asked a question about Moroccans. Moroccans are not a race. Who makes this up? No-one at home understands that Moroccans have suddenly become a race. This is utter nonsense. Not a single nationality is a race. Belgians are no race, Americans are no race. Stop this nonsense, I say to the Public Prosecutor. I am not a racist and neither are my voters. How do you dare suggest that? Wrongly slandering millions of people as racists.43% of the Dutch want fewer Moroccans, as I already said. They are no racists. Stop insulting these people. Every day, they experience the huge problem with Moroccans in our country. They have a right to a politician who is not afraid to mention the problem with Moroccans. But neither they nor I care whether someone is black, yellow, red, green or violet.I tell you: If you convict someone for racism while he has nothing against races, then you undermine the rule of law, then it is bankrupt. No-one in this country will understand that.And now the Public Prosecutor also uses the vague concept of "intolerance." Yet another stupidity. The subjective word intolerance, however, is not even mentioned in the law. And what for heaven's sake is intolerance? Are you going to decide that, members of the court?It is not up to you to decide. Nor up to the Supreme Court or even the European Court. The law itself must determine what is punishable. We, representatives, are elected by the people to determine clearly and visibly in the law for everyone what is punishable and what is not.That is not up to the court. You should not do that, and certainly not on the basis of such subjective concepts, which are understood differently by everyone and can easily be abused by the elite to ban unwelcome opinions of the opposition. Do not start this, I tell you.Mr. President, Members of the Court,Our ancestors fought for freedom and democracy. They suffered, many gave their lives. We owe our freedoms and the rule of law to these heroes. But the most important freedom, the cornerstone of our democracy, is freedom of speech. The freedom to think what you want and to say what you think.If we lose that freedom, we lose everything. Then, the Netherlands cease to exist; then the efforts of all those who suffered and fought for us are useless. From the freedom fighters for our independence in the Golden Age to the resistance heroes in World War II. I ask you: Stand in their tradition. Stand for freedom of expression.By asking for a conviction, the Public Prosecutor, as an accomplice of the established order, as a puppet of the government, asks to silence an opposition politician. And, hence, silence millions of Dutch. I tell you: The problems with Moroccans will not be solved this way, but will only increase.For people will sooner be silent and say less because they are afraid of being called racist, because they are afraid of being sentenced. If I am convicted, then everyone who says anything about Moroccans will fear to be called a racist.Mr. President, Members of the Court, I conclude.A worldwide movement is emerging that puts an end to the politically correct doctrines of the elites and the media that are subordinate to them.That has been proven by Brexit.
That has been proven by the US elections.
That is about to be proven in Austria and Italy.
That will be proven next year in France, Germany, and The Netherlands.The course of things is about to take a different turn. Citizens no longer tolerate it.And I tell you, the battle of the elite against the people will be won by the people. Here, too, you will not be able to stop this, but rather accelerate it. We will win, the Dutch people will win, and it will be remembered well who was on the right side of history.Common sense will prevail over politically correct arrogance. Because everywhere in the West, we are witnessing the same phenomenon.The voice of freedom cannot be imprisoned; it rings like a bell. Everywhere, ever more people are saying what they think. They do not want to lose their land, they do not want to lose their freedom.They demand politicians who take them seriously, who listen to them, who speak on their behalf. It is a genuine democratic revolt. The wind of change and renewal blows everywhere. Including here, in the Netherlands.As I said:I am standing here on behalf of millions of Dutch citizens.
I do not speak just on behalf of myself.
My voice is the voice of many.And, so, I ask you, not only on behalf of myself, but in the name of all those Dutch citizens:Acquit me! Acquit us!

According to a new study from the Center for Near East Policy Research (CFNEPR), 240 textbooks used in the Palestinian refugee camps contain the message of violent extremism. The textbooks have been used in the UN agency UNRWA's school curriculum. Sweden as one of UNRWA's major financiers, contributing over 35 million US dollars a year to the organization , has a great responsibility to stop the extremism.
I myself have vetted the Facebook pages of Palestinian schools and I am shocked by the violent extremism that is part of the education reflected in Facebook posts. On a Syrian UNRWA school's Facebook page, I have found drawings that children have posted on the wall of their classroom. One shows a masked person who is shooting with a rifle. "We shall liberate the country with our guns and our blood," it says in Arabic text within the drawing. Another drawing shows a bloody sword called "The Sword of Righteousness." The same drawing also depicts a Star of David crushed by a map of Israel, painted in the colors of the Palestinian flag. The text within the drawing states, "We shall conquer it, we return to victory."
The drawings clearly reflect what is taught in UNRWA schools. According to the Israeli institute CFNEPR's documentation, the following elements are constants in UNRWA's teaching: The denial of Jewish holy sites and Jews' legitimate presence in the Holy Land, violent struggle and demonization of Jews and the State of Israel.
We must all understand that exposing a child to an education that promotes violence constitutes a mental assault on the child.
In other words, it is the terrorist organization Hamas and the Palestinian Authority's extreme ideology that is being taught in UNRWA classrooms.
The Palestinian children are brainwashed to value death more than life and hate more than love at the Swedish funded schools.
It is obvious that not only Jews are the victims of this abusive, extremist ideology taught at UNRWA schools.
We must all understand that exposing a child to an education that promotes violence constitutes a mental assault on the child.
The UNRWA schools not only embrace the ideology of terror organizations, they also have close connections with such organizations. In social media, UNRWA schools document the pupils' meetings with terrorist networks. Hamas also brags that several of its "martyred" terrorists have an UNRWA education. Education in UN schools should lead to the shaping of peaceful and democratic individuals but UNRWA schools serve as recruitment centers for terrorist organizations, my observations as well as CFNEPR's research reveal.
But it is not yet too late to save coming generations of Palestinian children from violent extremism.
Recently, CFNEPR's director David Bedein visited the Swedish parliament. He spoke to Swedish lawmakers about the extremist elements of UNRWA textbooks and the violent attitudes that Palestinian children in UNRWA schools express.
Now that our parliamentarians are aware of the extremism in UNRWA schools, they must make every effort to make sure that it ceases and that this blatant abuse of children discontinues .
Sweden being the sixth largest donor to UNRWA has a unique opportunity and an important responsibility to influence the organization; to change the teaching from promoting violence to promoting peace. Sweden must also make sure that there is zero tolerance of violent extremism in all of the education that Sweden, the EU and the UN support financially.
Ultimately it is about treating all children equally. What we do not want Swedish children to be exposed to, we should not tolerate that Palestinian children are exposed to through Swedish funding. When violent extremism is not present in the education, a real peace process can start and a hopeful future for the Palestinian children.
