President of the European Jewish Congress Moshe Kantor says Sweden needs to be vigilant concerning anti-Semitism among some refugees seeking shelter in the Nordic country.
Sweden’s Housing Minister Mehmet Kaplan has been involved in anti-Israel activity in the past. In 2010, he participated in the Turkish-flagged flotilla to the Gaza Strip. When he attempted to land in Israel a few months later, he was denied entry over the incident.
Incredibly, just a day after Prime Minister Netanyahu complained to Sweden's Prime Minister Stefan Lofven over ignorant remarks made by Sweden's foreign minister, Lofven claimed that Palestinian stabbing attacks do not constitute "terrorism."
Sweden has dealt the latest blow in the diplomatic battle between Israel and Sweden, which has developed following Sweden's recognition of "Palestine."
