At the same time, he wrote that the indiscriminate violence showed a lack of respect for the values behind open and free societies.

SARA Nilsson wrote that she felt grateful to still be able to breathe after her cancer illness. She attributed a crucial role in her fight to her children and Patrik, and also thanked her colleagues, people who raised money for the drug ENHERTU, Douglas, those who prayed for her, and the surgeons who removed tumors. She wrote that the treatment had shrunk the tumors and that the fight continued, but that she was no longer afraid. Nilsson also talked about Fredrik Vikström, whom she said had helped her navigate the healthcare system. According to Nilsson, Vikström had himself been palliative in 2018 after colorectal cancer and later reached a state of NED, “No evidence of disease.” She wrote that he had researched, sought solutions, and demanded changes within the healthcare system, and that he had become involved in the same way when she discovered a tumor under her skin last year. Vikström's book “Under varje sten” was, according to Nilsson, set to release at midnight. She wrote that it chronicled his journey from palliative care to NED and contained advice on making demands and finding one's way in Swedish healthcare. The book, according to her, made no promises of miracle cures or guaranteed recovery. She also stated that there was a free cancer manual and an app on Vikström's website. #cancer #tacksamhet #livskraft (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)
