Oh, dear. You're reading this very wrong. The subject is not immigration and/or muslims, but about for-profit schools! That radical Islamists have been able to start their own school is just an example among others of this system's failings for crying out loud.

Muslims teaching the Quran and Arabic is hardly a problem that warrants calling them radical islamists and other charged words like them. The problem I'm trying to address is the partisan attitude of Expressen and their consequent dishonesty when it comes to issues related to muslims. It's just tiring to navigate through all the ideological and religious non-sense that these pieces of propaganda stem from, because they are not honest and they resort to these sorts of tactics. If they think their ideology and convictions are true, let them pave the way for discussion, surely they will annihilate Islam and Socialism ideologically in no time. But that's not what we see, it's the same old trash: terrorism, radical, islamist, and on and on it goes. Just throwing these words around in hopes the public feels threatened that the people Expressen dislikes so much are about to undermine the nation. Basically they would like to see a Crystal Nacht for muslims, they just don't know how to get there.

  Not sure what you're on about really. But in this case the previous CEO of this particular school, Kunskapsskolan, was expelled from Sweden after a decision by the Swedish Security Service (SÄPO) after being deemed a threat against national security. What more does it take?

    I didn't know about that. But it still doesn't warrant banning religious schools completely due to isolated incidents, and that was sort of the point I was making earlier. This is what the author was hinting at needs to be done, it's not an uncommon sentiment among the right either. There are a few bad apples among every religious and non-religious group, it's just how it is. Doesn't mean one should attack an entire group, unless one is in a crusade or something. For every ISIS supporter I bet you one can find 10 pro-violence far-rightwingers. That doesn't mean one should lump the entirety of that side of the political spectrum and call them a danger to humanity/minorities. It's not fair to do so with the right, and it's not fair to do so with the muslims.
