Sweden: Islamist Party Promises to Take Over Southern Swedish Region

Sweden has its own Muslim political party, called Nyans. It is still small, and the Social Democrats are still the most popular party among Sweden's Muslim population.  

In the below article from Nya Dagbladet, the party's leader, Mikail Yüksel, has promised that they will "take over" the southern Swedish region of Skåne, which includes Malmö, Sweden's third-largest city and a hotbed of Islamism and anti-Semitism. The article is translated by Fousesquawk.

In a Twitter posting, the Islamist party Nyans declares that is on the way "to taking over all of  Skåne” and that  Malmö is the first out.

Nya Dagbladet has earlier drawn attention to the party which, among others, demands that Islamophobia should become its own crime classification and that Muslims should receive a special minority position in Sweden-They have also accused all other Swedish parties as being racists. 

Founder and party leader Mikail Yüksel has a past in the Center Party but was forced out of the party after it was discovered that he had close contacts with the pan-Turkish, extreme right organization, Grey Wolves, and the party is believed to have close contacts with the Turkish dictator Recep Erdogan.

In a posting on Twitter, Mikail  Yüksel posts a photo from the party's candidate meeting and writes that, "Soon we will take over all of  Skåne with Malmö at the top".

Thus far, the interest on the part of the mass media for the party that describes itself as the obvious alternative for the country's Muslims has been relatively cool, but the party, which among others, wants to make it illegal to criticize religious extremism, has still received a certain space in which to market itself in both the tax-financed SVT (Swedish State TV) as well as the evening newspapers.

In Muslim-dominated and immigrant-dense areas, the Social Democrats till now have been the most popular party by far.
