d-intl.com is run by a bunch of paranoid and outright crazy neo-fascist. It's extremely racist and have close ties to the Norwegian terrorist Ander Bering Breivik as well as to the violent English Defence League(EDL). It's not by any means a decent source for anything.

I read one of the articles via Google Translate. I have no previous experience with the site, but when the article claimed that the Swedish authorities don't care about rape particularly if the victim is Swedish then it seemed to me to be rather cliche right-wing scaremongering.

Well thats just like your opinion, and not true at all.

The problem in Sweden is the same as in Denmark only worse. The media is controlled by leftists to a degree that almost no rightwing views are ever presented.

In Denmark 80% of journalists vote to the left, and we only have one or two papers who present the 55% of the population who vote on the right wing. The same is true in Sweden only worse.

d-intl.com/Tryckfrihetssällskapet have on numerous occasions invited EDL (now former) leader Stephen "Tommy Robinson" Yaxley-Lennon to speech at rallies and meetings. That's a fact.

Your other statements are the typical Swedish right-wing conspiracy theory and slur that has no correlation with reality.

I dont know about Sweden, but in Denmark, it has been documentet many times, that about 80% of the journalists are left wing. Any way I got a bit off track here.

The subject at hand is that number of prisons are being reduced, while the number of crimes are exploding through the roof according to the official statistics. And that just seems a bit odd to say the least.

> The same is true in Sweden only worse.

I would need a good source for this, since some newspapers in Sweden are rather right-wing with even some quite extreme libertarian columnists.

Gothenburg University JMK surveys all all journalists in Sweden, and last time:

41 procent Miljöpartiet (green party, left-wing) 15 procent Vänsterpartiet (communist, extreme left)

Public Service Radio Sveriges Radio: 54 procent Miljöpartiet (green party, left-wing) Public Service TV Sveriges Television: 52 procent Miljöpartiet (green party, left-wing)

Get your facts straight. Miljöpartiet is NOT considered left-wing, but centre-left, closer to the conservative-liberal block than the labour part.

Vänstetpartiet is a classical leftist party, there's nothing "extremist" about them.

So we should accept your "facts" with a "straight" face...? :-)

At least the V party stopped being Stalinists early -- directly when Moscow told them that Stalin was bad...

At least the Vänster party started early to harshly criticize the dictatorships in East Europe -- in 1989...

Let us talk about money and cultural exchange with dictators? Or about suppressing the information from the few surviving volunteers that went to Soviet in the 1930s? (Which did continue after 1989.)

At least V isn't changing opinions always whenever the wind changes -- not even after 1989 have they ever supported a democracy against a dictatorship!

And so on.

That is normal and "not extremist" in your definition?!

Thanks for a good laugh.

A bit earlier than 1989; the Left Party split with the Soviets in the 1960s, and became frequent critics after that. They were one of the loudest European left parties condemning the 1968 invasion of Czechoslovakia, for example.

If you asked Swedish police, you'd get much lower support for extreme right and pure racism than the national average. They probably aren't lower, but they know that these opinions aren't tolerated.

Swedish journalists are very much aware of that left extremist opinions is sensitive for their profession.
