Mikael Grev wrote that protesting young people wanted to see more money for school books and less for war. He wondered who was behind that opinion and argued that even students should understand that Europe might soon be under someone else's rule if the continent did not strengthen its defenses. #skolböcker #protester #utbildning (translated)

Daniel Schatz referred to Fredrik Malm's text, where Malm claimed that Sweden and the Western world focused disproportionately on Palestine and neglected the vulnerability of other groups. He mentioned Kurds, Iranians, and Christians in the Middle East. Malm wrote that Kurds in Turkey had been forbidden to speak their language and identify as Kurds for 70 years, and that Kurds in Iraq had been subjected to war since the 1960s and genocide in the 1980s. According to Malm, Human Rights Watch had reported that 182,000 people had been killed. He also claimed that Yasser Arafat had supported the genocide and compared the war history of the Kurds with Palestinian factions, which he claimed had started ten wars in 60 years. Regarding Iran, Malm wrote that the opposition to the Islamic regime had protested for freedom, while the regime had tried to kill Iranians abroad. He accused the Swedish Palestine movement of supporting the mullahs and described how Iranians had, according to him, been silenced, tortured, and killed for more than 40 years. Malm stated that Christians constituted 20 percent of the population of the Middle East at the beginning of the 20th century, and at most 2.5 percent today. He also referred to ISIS persecution of Christian Assyrians and Syriacs in Mosul in 2014. Malm claimed that Islamism and war had driven Christians to flee and criticized Palestinian activists for celebrating the Muslim Brotherhood and Islamist terror. https://t.co/WUoOR5opO7 #Kurdistan #Mellanöstern #HumanRights (translated)

E. also referred to France's ban on face coverings in public places, which according to E. was regulated by "LOI n° 2010-1192 du 11 octobre 2010 interdisant la dissimulation du visage dans l'espace public."

According to E, the individuals did not want to learn anything but to cause trouble, and he blamed the French far-left LFI and hooligans. #Sverige #Frankrike #politiskdebatt (translated)
