    Default [Sweden] Iranian changes name, converts, becomes proud nationalist

    He is against mass immigration and is the top candidate for the Sweden Democrats in Växjö.

    He fled from Iran as a political refugee 21 years ago. In his journey to become Swedish, he changed his name from Gharachorloo to Älgemalm and converted to Christianity.

    - "I feel that I am completely integrated in the Swedish society," says 43-year old Samuel Älgemalm, earlier Mohammed Ebrahim Gharachorloo.


    Samuel doesn't find the fact that he is an active Sweden Democrat strange at all.

    - "It's not an anti-immigrant party. We just want to encourage immigrants to return to their own countries and roots."

    He believes that immigrants who refuse to adjust to the Swedish culture and way of life should leave the country. At the same time Samuel states that most of them actually wish to adapt and become a contributing member of society, but that the current political climate makes this process difficult.


    Among the most important issues for this year's campaign, he lists:

    - Government's flawed integration policy
    - Fight against the building of a mosque in Växjö
    - Muslim world's cultural imperialism in the West

    Pardon me? I have all my teeth. In any case, we at the Home Office do our best to behave and act like civilized human beings and look out for our citizens and try to do what is best for them. That said, we believe every British subject has the right to choose whatever religion, creed, and way of life they prefer. Our Muslim citizens and immigrants are an important part of our nation and as such, especially in these difficult times, have the full protection of the Home Office. I have spoken.

    Why? The man's as Swedish as a foreigner can possibly become, how would society benefit from repatriating people like him?

    He was talking about the ones who have no intention of assimilating. The reporter most likely misquoted him.

    He is successfully assimilated into society, which must always be the goal for all immigrants. If immigrants do not assimilate, the host nation has failed. No assimilation combined with mass immigration, means a potential disaster for the host nation.

    Ok... we'll begin with the part you quoted. It's nothing unique to him, the whole party is against the building of mosques in Sweden.


    Sverigedemokraterna - Religion (I hope you can read Swedish)

    ”I ert program står det att ni är för religionsfrihet men i nästa mening står det att ni vill förbjuda moskèbyggen. Är inte det väldigt motsägelsefullt?”

    Nej! Vi stödjer tanken om att varje individ har rätt att tro på vad han eller hon vill, detta anser vi vara religionsfrihet, samtidigt så finns det alltid en gräns för friheten. Förr eller senare kommer nämligen en persons friheter i konflikt med en annans. Det är när tron omsätts till handling som vi menar att det bör finnas begränsingar av religionsfriheten. Även muslimer ska ha rätt att utöva sin religion, men Islam består inte bara av en andlig sfär, den har också en ideologisk dimension. Den allmänna uppfattningen om Islam är religionen ger fullständiga regler för hela samhällslivet.

    ...

    Erfarenheten har visat att uppförandet av en moské medför en omfattande inflyttning av muslimer till den aktuella orten och skapar ett förstärkande av den muslimska identiteten där. Detta motverkar kraftigt den för oss önskvärda assimileringen och orsakar ökade etniska motsättningar. Vi stödjer oss även på den svenska religionslagstiftningen fram till 2000, som i sin första paragraf stadgade att "var och en äger att fritt utöva sin religion så vitt han därigenom inte stör samhällets lugn eller orsakar allmän förargelse". Principen om samhällets lugn och medborgarnas trygghet bör fortfarande i princip gälla, och är överordnad rätten att utan förbehåll få utöva sin religion. Vi vet att moskèbyggen på många håll orsakat just ”allmän förargelse” bland icke-muslimerna. Följaktligen anser vi att man åtminstone bör hålla en lokal folkomröstning i frågan innan man bygger någon ny moské för att utröna vad medborgarna anser om saken.
    "Who opposes immigration"? No, it clearly says mass immigration. You do understand the difference...?

    Not allowing muslims to build mosques (or any other religion to have their places of worship) for themselves isn't going to help with anything. Freedom of religion.

    The party supports freedom of religion. Their reasoning was explained in my post above, can you read Swedish? Or do you want a translation...

    I don't think changing name and religion is needed. I would not trust a turncoat like him. Something is wrong when you change your name in the name of "integration" and abandon your own background. Learning language, respecting laws and getting a job is what is needed but that's it.
