  1. The Swedish people are accountable. The Swedes have an exceptionally "group-thinking" culture. They are like a school of fish. They will follow wherever the leaders take them. So now, they will work very hard, in unison, to fix the mess they have made for themselves.

  2. At least we in Norway could take action now, before it is out of hand. But with our current prime minister, I guess it will be about "monitoring the situation".

  3. There are a few mechanisms at play here (I'm Norwegian with Swedish family ties, so I know Swedes quite well). In Sweden's case, it has been at peace for 200+ years. Sweden has never been conquered or occupied, they dont even have a real national day. No Swede living today has ever had to fight for Sweden, or even know of anyone who has. Swedes took Sweden for granted. Combine this with a world view that the Swedish society was the best in the world, with an exceptional trust in authorities, and you have a recipe for disaster. When immigrants started flocking to Sweden, they thought that they needed to help these poor people. And that as soon as people from other parts of the world arrive in Sweden, they will realize how good the Swedish system is, and align their culture and values with the Swedish ones automatically. The government would keep up this perceived goodness for as long as they could, and any critics were subdued as racists or nazis. They should have course corrected 20 years ago, but they kept on going, until the issues could no longer be swept under the carpet. Now there is a new government in place, and Swedes will now align behind that, in order to fix the issues their culture caused.

  4. Turns out to have a paradise on earth, you need to have strict control on your borders. Who would have guessed.

  5. The Sweden that existed 20-40 years ago, is already long gone. It was too naive to survive in a global world. And you are right, because its not the amount of immigrants today that matters, its how many you'll have in 20 years. And for that you need to look at the people being born. Sweden has already changed, and the change will continue. How it will end up, nobody knows.

  6. As a Norwegian, I think your reporting was fair and balanced. It should be said that the idiocy of Swedish policies in immigration and integration has been widely known in both Norway and Denmark for decades. It took Sweden decades to get here, it cost them a lot of money and sacrifice. And it will take them decades to get out of, and even more money and sacrifice.
