The immigration-induced crisis in Sweden seems to have passed the point of no return. In many urban areas the police are unable to exert their authority. The violence and lawlessness have now spilled over into less culturally enriched areas, and have become so serious that even some of the mainstream media outlets have begun to take note.

Fjordman has written about the situation at Snaphanen (in dansk or norsk; I can’t tell them apart): Er Sverige ødelagt? (Is Sweden destroyed?)

Our Swedish correspondent LN has translated three articles about the catastrophic failure of Sweden. The first one is from Samtiden:

Sweden is “a complete political failure,” writes Janne Josefsson. “State power is being hollowed out bit by bit,” writes Wilhelm Agrell. Now Both Janne Josefsson and Wilhelm Agrell Raise the Alarm: Sweden is Going Under by Dick Erixon

September 13, 2019 Two heavy public opinion makers, the journalist Janne Josefsson and the peace researcher Wilhelm Agrell, each in his morning newspaper, have today emerged with an emergency call that Sweden is undergoing violence and lawlessness. Is that violence now approaching the establishment events in the media and academia? The stench of powder smoke Janne Josefsson writes in the DN Chronicle, “It is gunpowder smoke in the world’s best country” that Multiculturalism has created de facto apartheid in Sweden. Less than one percent of pupils have Swedish as a mother tongue in the Shumila school at Hisingen in Gothenburg — maybe four pupils out of 500. Sweden is no longer a country; it is different worlds, and “a politically perfect failure”. But once the denial begins to dissolve, the government and Morgan Johansson (S) [interior minister] are being labeled “abominable beasts”. The words get worse: “The less they know how to solve the social situation in the country,” Josefsson writes. The schools are “transmission belts” that deliver boys to the criminal gangs. At Shumila School, 26 percent of the boys were prosecuted for a crime within a few years of completing school. “We get the society we deserve,” concludes Josefsson. Sweden’s internal armed conflict is sinking it The state’s monopoly on violence no longer exists, the professor in intelligence analysis Wilhelm Agrell writes in a debate article in SvD [see the bottom of this post]. “We must act to save the country.” He writes that “the phenomenon of internal armed conflict can help highlight the dynamics of an event that has great destructive potential for a society. In the typical internal armed conflict, different groups are fighting each other and to varying degrees a state power that has completely or partially lost its monopoly on violence.” In such situations, violence escalates, as it is easier than reversing it. The latches have been released and the violence has its own dynamic. Agrell cites Lebanon in the 1980s and the Balkans in the ‘90s as examples where internal armed conflict has escalated to war. In an internal armed conflict, social functions break down and those who are able to flee the country. Agrell believes that the development of violence has been uninterrupted for too long because both citizens and politicians have regarded Sweden as a safe country. The authorities are very slow to begin to consider serious organized crime as a social threat. “The violence is not only becoming more brutal and escalating, the victims may be anyone who happens to get in the way or anyone who is perceived to stand in the way…” State power has been cut out bit by bit and no longer exists. The country is broken. He believes that it is “the destructive dynamics of the internal armed conflict that we need to pay attention to and fight for if the country, the country in which we want to live, is to be saved.” Otherwise it will quickly get worse. Will the government wake up now? Will the government, with its support parties, wake up and take note of the fact that people within the establishment groups are now also sounding the alarm that the situation is extremely serious and acute? My answer is: no. You do not have the mental and intellectual capacity to understand that Sweden is no longer like it was twenty years ago. You also do not want to understand. You are afraid to comprehend reality. Therefore, they will continue to estimate while at the same time throwing out those who warn of the development — which of course mainly applies to the Sweden Democrats, who are ten to twenty years ahead of everyone else. To acknowledge the situation is to acknowledge that Jimmie Åkesson is right. They would rather let Sweden go down than do that. The only people who can break the deadlock are the Swedish people. They can show who they sympathize with. An edge in the opinion polls is probably the only thing that can induce the political powers to begin to take action.

The second article is from Fria Tider :

Bomb deaths in Sweden shock US police chief: “Nothing like what we have seen in the US” The American ex-police chief Rick Fuentes is surprised at all the explosions in Sweden. There is nothing like it in the US, he tells Expressen. Former US Police Chief Rick Fuentes is in Sweden to help the Swedish police fight gang crime. On Tuesday he held a press conference with Ulf Johansson, the regional police chief in Stockholm, concerning a collaboration between the Swedish police and Rutgers University in New Jersey, where Fuentes currently operates. But the former police chief is surprised at all the bombings in Sweden. Has seen nothing at all like this in the United States “I haven’t seen a grenade attack. It has not happened. We have not seen the use of explosives in murders and wounding people; it has not happened. It is a level of violence that we have not seen,” he tells Expressen. He also explains that it is much more difficult for the police to deal with the violence that takes place by means of explosive blasts, but that there are definitely measures that can work against the gun violence. At the same time, Expressen notes that gang violence has reached such a level that it “causes terror in Sweden”.

Finally, the op-ed from Svenska Dagbladet that was referred to above:
