STARTS:
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: Sweden should have a humane correctional system. So why are we one of the countries that can keep people detained indefinitely in extreme isolation? And why is it that many agree with the UN and other bodies who say that the system should be changed? And how is it that the issue is nevertheless politically dead? And why does no one know how often the correctional authorities decide on their own on isolation even after the courts have made a ruling that there shouldn’t be isolation? Welcome to ‘In the Name of the Law’ with me, Lasse Wierup, Presenter.
Bengt Holmgren, psychologist: Our Swedish remand prisons were not designed for the detention periods that have evolved over time.
Beatrice Ask, Minister of Justice: There are rules for when restrictions are to be imposed and if they are followed it is reasonable.
‘Göran’: I’d very much prefer to be locked up with rats and bad food. The window where I lived for nine months, it’s the third to the far right there.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: We’re standing in the park in front of Kronoberg remand prison in Stockholm. 31-year-old Göran lived up in the taller building.
‘Göran’: It’s not a real life up there. People aren’t evolved to be in isolation.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: Göran – who is actually called something else – is one of the main characters in the largest narcotics trial ever in Sweden, where detention times have broken Swedish records. Göran was arrested in 2010 on suspicion of having attempted to coordinate a large shipment of cocaine in the Caribbean Sea.
‘Göran’: I come from an ordinary Swedish family. I’ve had all kinds of jobs. And I have lived on the wrong side of the law too. I’ve been convicted of grand larceny and aggravated robbery. Before this case that is.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: Because the prosecutors believe that there is a risk that Göran will interfere with the investigation, the court permitted that so-called restrictions be imposed on him. This meant that he was not allowed to see anyone other than custody staff, his lawyer, and the police officers who interrogated him. He was not allowed any TV, radio, newspapers, or computer in his cell.
‘Göran’: Go into a toilet and lock the door. And sit there for 24 hours. Just try it. And don’t make contact with anyone. You can’t talk to anyone, you just sit there, and three times a day a small flap opens and food is tossed in. A completely bare room of 7m2 where you spend 23 out of 24 hours. Then you have an hour in which you are able to go up on the roof, and there are small ‘pie slices’ as they call them. You see them on the roof there.
Remand staff: This is what a cell looks like. We have a bed, a desk, a small stool, everything fastened to the walls and floors to prevent them from being thrown around. We have a small metal sink.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: Restrictions are not uncommon, quite the opposite: they are the rule in most cases. Approximately 2 out of 3 people in pre-trial detention or about 6,000 people per year have restrictions imposed on them for varying periods of time.
Elisabet Fura: [3:14] I find it troubling when you see how often these long periods in custody are coupled with restrictions. They really are locked up for 23 hours a day, and that obviously does something to people, it affects them to be locked up like that.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: [3:29] Elisabet Fura, head justice ombudsman, has previously sat on the bench of the European Court of Human Rights, and according to her, the correctional system has recently taken steps to imposing even harsher conditions by building so-called ‘security jails’.
Elisabeth Fura, Justice ombudsman: There is a door that opens automatically, and you go into a corridor alone, monitored through cameras by a guard who is sitting in a completely different building looking at you as you go out and go through and go to this little pie slice where you get to wander around like a – well like a caged animal, then, for an hour, and then go back, and you have not met a single person in that whole time.
‘Göran’: When I tell friends and acquaintances how it works, so many of them look bewildered, asking ‘What? Can it really be like that?’
Bengt Holmgren, psychologist: Bengt Holmgren, I am a psychologist, I have worked as a consultant at Kronoberg remand prison in Stockholm.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: Bengt Holmgren has met hundreds of people in detention and has studied how restrictions can trigger mental illness.
Bengt Holmgren, psychologist: Here is a sofa in the shade.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: In about 25% of the cases he has seen a connection. It seems that one can say that the isolation itself causes mental illness in the form of depression or anxiety and it remains as long as one has restrictions until these are lifted.
‘Göran’: One day you are in a panic and want to get out, the next you are depressed by everything, it’s a real roller coaster. I got problems with my eyesight because you have a wall in front of you, just three feet in front of you all the time, so – it’s a very unusual feeling indeed.
Remand prison staff: [05:14] Shutters have a small remote control so that they themselves can control. But that’s when they do not have restrictions. If they have restrictions then they must not have any contact with the outside world.
Bengt Holmgren, psychologist: An important reason for the emergence of these questions about mental illness is that they do not know when the detention and restrictions will come to an end. If they knew that, it would be easier to cope with it, I think.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: 31-year-old Göran says that he recognises the what psychologist Bengt Holmgren is describing.
‘Göran’ [5:46] Had someone told me on the first day when I was sitting there that ‘you will be there for one hundred days’, it would have been hard. But then at least one would know! When a hundred days comes and goes, then two hundred, then four hundred, then six hundred, then eight hundred days, when one begins to wonder when will it end? And one has no clue!
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: Unlike some countries – including France, Spain, and Denmark – Sweden has chosen not to have any upper limit to detention. Detention decisions can be extended indefinitely. Same thing with isolation.
Bengt Holmgren, psychologist: [06:18] I have asked some police officers, what would it mean for you if you had a maximum of three months? And they answer: Well, we would have to work faster. They didn’t act like they thought it would make their work impossible. Because as it stands now, there is no obligation to do things quickly.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: [6:35] Psychologist Bengt Holmgren is not the only one who believes that Sweden should introduce an upper time limit.
Elisabeth Fura, Justice ombudsman: If you had such a provision, it would help the prosecutor and the police to be more effective in their investigations if they knew there was an upper limit.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: Ombudsman Elisabeth Fura says that the judicial review process of extending detention is sometimes not as thorough as it should be. The review process is handled in a routine manner. Detention is the default just in case. Or the extension of the detention is erring on the side of caution.
‘Göran’: From the moment of my final interrogation to the trial date, several several hundred days went by. And on good days, I had no contact with the investigative unit at all, I just sat, well – in storage basically. It’s amusing to compare my situation with the Swedish journalists Martin Schibbye and the other one who were imprisoned in Africa. They were imprisoned together. I much prefer a room with two hundred people and being locked up with a friend than to be in total isolation without seeing a single person. It’s… Ah it’s… Indescribable.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: [7:40] The Council of Europe’s Committee Against Torture has made five visits to Swedish remand prisons since 1991. Every time, the correctional system has been criticised. And it is precisely the frequent restrictions that were the object of criticism. The UN Committee against Torture has criticised Sweden on similar grounds and suggested measures to break the isolation practice. Ombudsman Elisabeth Fura again:
Elisabeth Fura, Justice ombudsman: [08:06] And each time, it becomes the… It gets embarrassing when nothing has happened [between visits], it just becomes an exercise of ‘naming and shaming’.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: But really – has nothing happened at all? During Almedal Week [an annual festival of politics and current affairs] in Gotland the Correctional Service Chief Executive Director Nils Öberg has been invited to a seminar to talk about how he and his colleagues are dedicating resources to trying to help inmates get back to a better life. But when it comes to those sitting in detention, no resources are dedicated, whereas, according to Nils Öberg, they’re needed.
Bengt Holmgren, psychologist: [08:37] Yes, but I see it this way. My opinion is that our Swedish remand prisons are not designed for the detention periods that have evolved over time, ie periods of custody have become longer and longer. And that means a great pressure on the detainees, but also a great strain on the correctional authority which, because it is not meant to be that people sit in custody for such long periods of time, and certainly not with extensive restrictions. It is very difficult to manage this in a good way.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: [9:14] The problem is, according to Correctional Service’s Director General that the staff do not have time to socialise with the detainees or break the isolation in any other way.
Nils Öberg, Swedish Correctional Service: It is our job to do it, but often that competes with many other activities that our staff also have to do.
Bengt Holmgren, psychologist: [09:30] One of the most serious problems is that it generates problems with one’s ability to have an effective legal defence, in the sense that if you have suffered from depression or an anxiety disorder that you’ve had for so many months and then you are expected to go to trial and be able to defend yourself, then there it is a serious problem.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: What psychologist Bengt Holmgren is describing affected the detainee Göran. When the trial for drug smuggling finally began, he lost his temper with the prosecutor and erupted.
‘Göran’ (tape from hearing): I thought I’d just start by apologising because on a few occasions during this trial I have found it difficult to keep my mouth shut when perhaps it should have been.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: This is Stockholm District Court’s own recording of the hearing where Göran appeals to the Court to be understanding.
‘Göran’ (tape from hearing): You become quite frustrated when you sit in isolation for 20 months, it’s been over 300 days since the police interrogated me, and I hope as well that the court will have some kind of consideration that one is not always in one’s best condition when one comes down here to the courtroom.
Bengt Holmgren, psychologist: Depression may bring a kind of feeling of resignation as well. One can, as it were, give up the very idea of why one should care.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: Göran was not the only one of the defendants who was affected psychologically by the prolonged periods of custody.
[Recording:] I can not stand to sit in this jail anymore. I get treated… You discuss whether you should take an hour and a quarter to go for lunch or if you should take an hour and a half and put me in a cell full of drunks up there – so I do not give a damn about your wretched lunch.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: A 58-year-old man who was arrested with 1.4 tons of cocaine was about to break the Swedish pre-trial detention record of four years. The man was so tormented by his detention conditions that he was considering confessing to other offences in the hope that this would mean he would be transferred to a prison.
[Recording:] Now I want to know, prosecutors. Are you looking to accuse me of anything more than [fourteen years]?. Then I will confess it. I will confess exactly whatever you want. I want to know: if tomorrow I sign this declaration of satisfaction, does it mean that I am going to prison next week?
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: [12:00] Restrictions are not just imposed in investigations of serious crimes, and those who are in isolation are not only adults. Even minors suspected of crimes have stringent restrictions imposed on them.
Andreas Nygren: You’re scared, you’re sad, you’re heartbroken, angry, you are in a whirlwind, and especially if you are a child under eighteen. I’m Andreas Nygren, I come from Processkedjan. We have met and coached youth who are 16-17 years old who have been in detention for 3-4 months with restrictions.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: Processkedjan is a voluntary organisation that seeks out kids who are between 15 and 21 who have been arrested by the police.
Andreas Nygren: Especially those who are in custody and have restrictions, and we follow them from there all the way to freedom.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: Thanks to a partnership with the correctional service, the coaches obtain authorisation to visit youth with restrictions and help them overcome some of the isolation. That is the job that correctional services executive director Nils Öberg says his staff do not have time to do. Andreas Nygren who today is 36 was just 17 when he was arrested for the first time.
Andreas Nygren: [13:05] Those two weeks were so far the worst in my life. Because I was heartbroken, I was afraid, I was worried, I did not know what lay ahead. And there was really no one who came into the room and could talk to me about these thoughts. I also got a lot of insight about what I should have done with my life, but I did not know what I’d do with it, with those thoughts. I sat in isolation for almost six months in relation to my final conviction and at the time I wrote a diary, I wrote a diary every day I sat in there, and when I read that diary today, I realise how bad I was feeling. Because I was paranoid, I thought they had set up cameras in my cell, I was sometimes euphorically happy, and sometimes I was as low as you can get, and all this was a state of shock. And if you are sitting there as a child locked up with those thoughts, it breaks you down completely.
Bengt Holmgren, psychologist: [13:54] This is a small group of people that get people interested or thinking about the issue or how should I put it: feel sorry for them.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: Psychologist Bengt Holmgren again.
Bengt Holmgren, psychologist: It’s a problem that the public in general terms are ignorant of, and in addition a little prejudiced about, who think that these people are in this situation because they have themselves to blame. And then they forget about the important principle that you are innocent until unless a guilty verdict is handed down, and so you should be treated accordingly.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: Five years have passed since the European Council’s Torture Committee last visited Sweden. At the time we received specific criticism for keeping minors in custody with restrictions, and a series of recommendations were submitted to Sweden. The Swedish government has followed one of these recommendations, and this means that the prosecutor’s office each year must report the exact numbers of minors in custody. The figures show that there is a higher percentage of minors who are detained with restrictions than the general population on remand. 80% of all children arrested between the ages of 15 and 17 had restrictions imposed in 2012, or in real numbers: 97 people. That same year, Denmark, who had also received criticism from the Torture Committee, did not have a single minor in incommunicado detention.
Bengt Holmgren, psychologist: [15:28] The former chief of Kronoberg remand prison used to say that this is a very important barometer of how things are in Sweden, how we treat the people who are detained here. I think he was quite right.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: [15:32] The conversation with the psychologist Bengt Holmgren takes place during the political Almedalen Week in Visby, on a bench by the beach. A few hundred meters away, political party activities are ongoing.
Mattias Pleijel, Assistant Presenter: Politicians over here in Almedalen then – are they interested in this issue?
Bengt Holmgren, psychologist: I think you should ask them if you get the chance.
Mattias Pleijel, Assistant Presenter: We’ll do that a little later. Then we will also explain why a Swedish correctional institution may decide to keep a person in isolation month after month even though a court has said no to restrictions. But first some news in brief.
News: [15:54] The arrest of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange will be addressed in the Stockholm district court again on the 16th of July. Assange has been living at the Ecuadorean Embassy in London for over two years to ensure that he be released to Sweden where he is suspected of rape and is remanded in absentia. The public defenders find it unreasonable that he should continue to be detained for such a long time, whilst the prosecutors do not think it is possible to use such arguments as Assange chose to stay away.
[Unrelated news item relating to reforming the police force until 22:20]
Per Hedkvist: [22:24] When you lock up a person for so many hours a day, it affects a person mentally, that is obvious. My name is Per Hedkvist, I work as a correctional officer in Gotland. With our younger detainees, we have a requirement placed on us to do things to break the isolation for at least 2 hours a day.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: [23:04] It is the courts who are responsible for deciding whether people should be arrested or not, and whether restrictions should be imposed. But when we have examined the conditions in the Swedish prison service, we have discovered that there are exceptions to this practice. Here’s what psychologist Bengt Holmgren, who has worked for many years in the prison system, has to say.
Bengt Holmgren, psychologist: [23:20] There are cases where the court has decided to lift the restrictions, and yet you still sit there in seclusion because the custody officers have determined that there is a security justification.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: This was what happened to 31-year-old Göran who was detained in Sweden’s largest narcotics trial. After 20 months, the Stockholm district court determined that it was no longer necessary to keep him under restrictions. Göran looked forward to socialising with other detainees and to receiving unsupervised visits. Instead, he received notice from the prison that he would be held in so-called seclusion, which in practice meant that the isolation continued. Now he did not even have the right to make a private phone call to his mother.
‘Göran’ [23:43] The decision by the court, it becomes totally ineffective. It’s like a… So it is completely meaningless!
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: [23:50] The decision was taken by an official at the remand prison who consulted with police and prosecutors. The reason was that the correctional services feared that there was a risk that Göran could plan new crimes from inside the detention center.
‘Göran’ [24:01] After the court lifted the restrictions against me – that was in September 2012 – I still sat in complete isolation until the 23rd of May 2013.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: [24:10] What happened then was that the Svea Court of Appeal had ruled that his detention had become disproportionately long. After 850 days – or two years and four months – Göran was to be released, despite the fact that the trial was not yet over. From having been in total isolation due to the correctional service’s estimations that that he was likely to reoffend, he was now free on condition that he surrendered his passport and reported regularly to the police station.
‘Göran’ [24:37] I urge all those people in the judicial system to try and sit one day – just one day – in solitary confinement.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: When were you last in a Swedish remand prison?
Beatrice Ask, Minister for Justice: Good question. It must have been at one of the police visits I’ve made when I’m out there every week and visit the police and then you often look in but, but… I have not been locked inside a remand prison. I have not.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: During the political week in Almedalen we sat down at a picnic table with Minister for Justice Beatrice Ask. She has followed the record-long detention periods in this and other recent cases, although she did not want to give us an opinion about whether 850 days isolation is reasonable or not.
Beatrice Ask [Justice Minister]: [25:14] Where specific restrictions are in place they must have been authorised, and then they are reviewed by a court continually as well, so I assume that they had a good reasons.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: The fact, that the Court’s decision on restrictions can be replaced by the Correctional Service’s internal isolation rules, appears to be news for the Minister of Justice.
Mattias Pleijel, Assistant Presenter: [25:28] And how common is this? That the correctional institution decides on total seclusion?
Beatrice Ask, Minister for Justice: I do not know offhand, but I am certain that the prison administration has accurate statistics on the matter.
Nils Öberg: [25:38] No I can not give you any statistics on it.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: We find Prison Service Director Nils Öberg in the crowd.
Nils Öberg: I do not know the statistics about how often this occurs off the top of my head.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: Nils Öberg turns to his press secretary who promises to get back to us. But in the end we get no such statistics.
Nils Öberg’s press secretary: We do not have that kind of statistical data.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: Elisabeth Lager is the legal director at the Corrections Authority.
Elisabeth Lager: Every decision is taken on a case-by-case basis and that is why it is difficult to gather data on it.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: [26:01] But back to the question of whether Sweden should follow other countries and impose a maximum limit on detention. In Denmark, for example, six months of detention for offences that have up to 6 years prison sentence, and one year of arrest for offences that have still longer sentences. And now that we are here in Almedalen and have the opportunity to do a survey of all the parliamentary parties, we ask the question.
Johan Linander, Centre Party: Custody periods in Sweden are too long. I am Johan Linander, I am the legal spokesperson for the Centre Party. But the response from the Centre Party is still ‘no’ [to imposing upper limit].
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: KD, Folkpartiet, the Greens, and the Social Democrats give the same answer.
Morgan Johansson: It’s very difficult to impose absolute deadlines.
Mattias Pleijel: But other countries do it.
Morgan Johansson: I know, but it’s very hard to do!
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: The person saying that is Morgan Johansson, who is tipped to become Attorney General if the Social Democrats form the new government in the autumn elections.
Morgan Johansson: Many of those investigations are extremely complicated, so I’m not willing to make a statement unless I see a proper impact assessment.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: Two parties, however, say yes.
Rickard Jonsson, Sweden Democrats: There must be a maximum time limit, that is my firm belief. People sit in limbo too long, often without any information. It is unworthy of a country like Sweden.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: The person who says that is the Sweden Democrats’ Rickard Jonsson. And for once, his party agrees with the Left Party, if only on this one issue.
Lena Olsson, Left Party: Human rights must also apply to those suspected of crimes.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: And that was the Left Party’s Lena Olsson. But the fact is that the issue in practice has already been addressed. At the beginning of the year, the Prosecution Authority presented an investigation of how Sweden should handle international criticism. And in this investigation, that the Minister of Justice hopes will lead to Sweden avoiding future criticism, no upper limit has been suggested.
Beatrice Ask, Minister for Justice: It has then been argued in the legal system that we achieve better results without upper limits to detention periods because then people would simply wait until they reach this limit, so such a reform would have a problematic effect.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: Yes if you were to believe Justice Minister Beatrice Ask, the police would on the contrary risk having to work slower if an upper limit were introduced. Instead, she hopes for plea deals for those who do cooperate with the police, better evidentiary standards through earlier interrogations, and more resources for forensic work, an acknowledged bottleneck. It is also proposed that detainees be guaranteed two hours of human contact per day.
Mattias Pleijel: [28:29] Are other countries wrong in having an upper limit?
Beatrice Ask, Minister for Justice: They have a different way of thinking. That does not mean one is better than the other.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: One who is not convinced by the Prosecutor General’s investigation is psychologist Bengt Holmgren who studied mental illness amongst detainees.
Bengt Holmgren, psychologist: The investigatory commissions from both the UN and the European Council – they of course agree that this is not good. That is to say, that it is harmful to do things this way. That should be sufficient reason to actually make more radical changes than what is proposed in this investigation.
Lasse Wierup, Presenter: Finally we can tell you that Göran, who appeared in our feature, was sentenced last week to prison for 6 years and 10 months. And that concludes ‘In the Name of the Law’ for this time.

Another State Kidnapping in the Swedish Utopia


SWEDEN

The Inhumane Land

Part 1

Another State Kidnapping

in the Swedish Utopia


by C.C.M.Warren, M.A.(Oxon), Retired Professional Educator


    Do not visit or vaccation in Sweden if you have children, you value their safety, and you want to keep your family intact. People are often surprised when I tell them this because they have heard the fable that socialist Sweden is a veritable paradise, the social Utopia that Marxists of all stripes have long dreamed about. Not so. Indeed, this has led family rights lawyer and director of international relations for the American-based Home Schooling Legal Defence Association, Michael Donnelly, to declare Sweden to be "the darkest of regimes for families in Western Europe". Similar abuses are advancing in other Western nations of the European Union, North America and Australasia, but the disease is more virulent in Sweden than anywhere else.

    Reading the propaganda in the media generously sponsored by a State more intereteded in perpetuating itself, financially providing for its employees, limitlessly expanding its power, and telling the world what a ripping success it has been, you would never know that between 2007 and 2008 alone the murder rate in the Swedish Utopia rose by 49% (according to Eurostat's crime database) and that Sweden has been singled out by the European Union as having by far the highest rate of sexual assault crimes in Europe (1). Even the United Nations has noticed that only 3 per cent of all hate crimes ever lead to any kind of police investigation (2), as if these were anyway the most urgent and pressing crimes needing investigation in a country where state-kidnapping of innocent children for the most ridiculous of reasons has reached epidemic proportions.

    So it should come as no surprise to learn that the vast state industry of child trafficking is almost never reported at all, and that when it is, the facts are always twisted to demonise innocent families. And why not - it means lucrative business for the state appartus from social service workers to handsomly paid foster parents who receive 1,200 �uros (¤184) per day, per child. And then we must not forget the 'perks' received by some of the employees at various state institutions where allegedly pedophile networks are serviced by the child victims. Sexual abuse and violence against children is rampant in Swedish state institutions.

    I never dreamed that such a vile industry was so strongly in place until I got drawn into the case of fellow homeschoolers, Christer and Annie Johansson, whose son Domenic was kidnapped by the state, handed over to a well-paid foster-carer (who swore never to return the boy to his parents even before legal custody was awarded to her) and parenthood denied them completely so that now they do not see their child at all. And what were they guilty of? Legally homeschooling their son. Over the years I discovered that homeschoolers are not the only ones being targeted (it has since been made virtually illegal) but critics of the state and especially those whom government employees who feel slighted want to get revenge against. Sweden is now socially a totalitarian state pretending to be a democracy. Though unlike the former Soviet Union it hasn't collectivised agriculture and industry, it has collectivised education and regards all children as essentially the state's own and not the parents'.

    The State Corporate Maffia have struck once again, this time against a harmless Dutch family on vaccation in Munkfors, V�rmland, because allegedly they would not sell their holiday villa to the state transport company, V�rmlandstraffik and allegedly because they were illegally tapping municipal electricity. A dispute subsequently arose over their parking lot, and though they claim they were able to properly document that they were legally in the right, the state responded in a typically high-handed, anti-democratic and authoritarian manner, sent in police and social workers, ransacked their villa, and seized her four youngest children aged 7,10,13 and 16. Finding a sex toy amongst the belongings of her eldest 19 year-old daughter (a writer) during the ransacking, they confiscated her poems too and then, on the basis of her 'toy', decided to charge her for selling her servives as a prostitute! The social workers, the liars that they have proved themselves to be over and over again, calmed the parents down and assured them that the whole matter would be resolved over the weekend and that the children would be returned. It never happened - indeed, it almost never does.

    For those who have had any experience with these traders of child flesh - and they are many - you soon learn the following things that these social predators and family-destroyers, who call themselves 'social workers', are never to be trusted - ever.

    The authorities engineered their own story and this was dutifully rolled off the state-controlled press to ensure, as always in 99.99 per cent of all child abduction cases, that the state is seen to be professionally in the right (3). The victims' side of the story was entirely ignored. You see, in Marxist Sweden the state is nearly always right and the citizen is nearly always wrong. They don't execute you or put you in a Gulag here for deviating from the 'party line' but they do psychologically traumatise you and your children by sending in the local SS (Social Services) with a friendly smile on their faces and soothing words to smash up your family and make sure you never question their authority again. Gone is the barrel-of-the-gun method of the NKVD (though the police who come with the SS are armed) but its it's place has come the court order and, sometimes, the hypodermic syringe and parmaceutical drugs with known dangerous side-effects. Gone is the physical torture, suffering and dying of the Gulags and in their place a much more insiduous form of torture: mental and emotional. Fascism and communism have become refined for the 21st century, the subtle though no less deadly creatures of the new age.


    Israeli whistlebower Roi Tov summarises how the New West (which I believe essentially to be based on the post 1960's Swedish Model), whilst retaining the language of the old classical liberals, now acts with the same ruthlessness of the Old Communist East:

      "Point out to really free and truly democratic Western countries their own violence and illegitimate laws and you will become the next target of their violence."

    And violent child-kidnapping is, arguably, the most despicable kind. Whilst the state kidnapping, incarceration, and torturing of adults was, and is, bad enough, extending this to vulnerable children surely represents the depths of barbarity and dehumanisation. How has this ghastly state of affairs come to be in what were once happy and free Western nations? And there is no doubt in my mind, from all that I have studied and heard, that before these closet Marxists got their hands on the state apparatus in the 1970's, Sweden was an amazing, progressive, prosperous, free and happy country. That is the Sweden I thought I was emmigrating to at the end of the last century and it is still the Sweden I hope can be won back one day.

    The problem is the people have been so cleverly and effectively programmed by totalitarian-minded politicians pretending to be classical liberals - men and women who are so steeped in behaviourism and Marxist-type propaganda - that they not only don't recongise their own slavery but are themselves the victims of Stockholm Syndrome and actively defend it!

    But how has this happened? How has this wonderful nation and its warm, gentle and friendly people been so cleverly duped by the social engineers? By inculcating two lies deep into the psyche of the citizenry it has effectively paralysed rational thinking and the compassionate humanity that in free souls would compell them to cry out and protest en masse against all the abuses and injustices being perpetrated in their name and allegedly for their well-being. Speaking of American culture, though in fact representative of the whole mental modus operandi of Western countries, one American public figure succinctly pointed out:

      "Our culture has accepted two huge lies. The first is that if you disagree with someone�s lifestyle, you must fear or hate them. The second is that to love someone means you agree with everything they believe or do. Both are nonsense. You don�t have to compromise convictions to be compassionate" (Rick Warren).

    The victims of many of the current child-kidnappings in Sweden represent lifestyles that the anti-libertarian Marxist state cannot approve of, and in the matter of the the cases I mostly report, homeschooling. Home education is a threat to the ambitions of statists who, though pluralistic in name, are in reality committed to a uniform society where everyone thinks and acts alike, a state where all the thinking has been done for them, where acquiring one set of ideas and a fixed philosophy is learned uncritically by rote. Yes, 'criticism' is allowed, as it was in the former communist Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, but only a special kind of regulated criticism that does not upset the overall thrust. Even 'democracy' is included within the paradigm, as it was in the Marxists dictatorships, but not genuine liberty or thought and behaviour. Criticise 'too much' and it's not long before you are branded a 'hate' criminal (after having redefined the word 'hate' in its state-disseminated Newspeak).

    I recently criticised the statist view of feminism and compared it to the libertarian feminism of classical liberalism to illustrate this very point (4). Our issue as homeschoolers is not, and never has been, with democratic socialism, liberalism or conservativism, all of which in the 20th century have been proven historically of living capably alongside one another, but with statist 'social democracy', 'liberalism', and 'conservantism' which without exception always evolve into monstrous totalitarian entities whilst retaining the trappings of the genuine libertarian article without actually being it. They "talk the talk but don't walk the walk". And it is these trappings which fool the general public into na�vely believing and supporting the statist counterfeit slowly enslaving them.

    I've said it before, and I'll say it again: democracy without liberty always leads to totalitarianism and is the most recongisable by the fact that this breed of "peoples' democracy" demands ever more centralisation. This is the totalitarian nightmare called statism.

    The Swedish homeschooling movement in particular has been able to remain politically neutral and united on the basis of the libertarian ideal, its conflict being not with a particular political party but with the whole statist mindset which seeks to suppress, intimidate and destroy them if they protest too much. Most of the Swedish homeschooling community has been driven from this land abroad. One recently had to flee the clutches of the Swedish SS and settle in England to find their peace and freedom away from the social terrorists.

    The problem of bad and abusive foster homes and institutions in Sweden has been in the press of late. The statist government, instead of recognising that the problem is the breaking up of perfectly healthy family units and of overpaid foster parents - which has the unfortunate effect of attracting those more interested in filthy lucre (money) than taking care of genuinely needy children from abusive homes - has decided that the solution is not a reformation of the whole corrupt system but more of the same. Their solution? Pump more taxpayers' money into the child-trafficking industry by creating yet more civil 'servants' to check and control the foster parents!. But the icing on top of the case of this piece of brilliant government strategy is to rename 'foster homes' as 'family homes'! Oh the bitter ironly of it, not only do they want to destroy the very families that are needed for the healthy mental and emotional development of children (and therefore the well-being of society) but now they want to call these unnatural, traumatised 'caring' units "families"! How is this different from an autocrat arresting an innocent person, throwing him in jail, and then renaming the jail "home"?

    The whole system is sick, from the head (that should know better) to the feet of the enslaved working classes who have forgotten how to think and how to repond from the depths of their humanity against state injustice. Of course the problem is they sold their souls on the basis of a lie, the promise by the state that the state would take care of them compassionately from cradle to grave and never do them harm. And when harm is done, who conducts the investigations? The state! The Swedish judiciary mostly defends the interests of the state and not of its citizens. And when the Social Services give testimony, it is assumed that they, as alleged 'professionals', are competent, above suspicion and their testimony always superior to the hapless citizen and therefore the more reliable. It turns out a good many of them are barbaric psychopaths. After all, we have the French Revolutionary Disease here in continental Europe: the accused is always guilty until proven innocent. You can't really have a proper system of justice without habeas corpus and to work on the basis of innocent until proven guilty.

    An illustration of the brainwashing that has happened in Swedish society and the inability of the state school- and media-created social consciousness concerns a furor in Karlstad, the capital of the region of V�rmland where I myself live. Farmers are threatening civil disobedience in order to defend their flocks from wolves. Wolves have 'protected status' in EU law and may only be shot in state-sanctioned and -monitored "protective hunts" after the state has determined there really is a danger to livestock (5).

    Commonsense tells you that a farmer should be allowed to defend his livestock and hunting dogs, and guard his business interests, at any and at all times. Instead the farmers are being required to build expensive fences they can ill afford while the wheels of the slow bureaucratic machinery ponderously turn.

    The idea of "civil revolt" is practically unheard of in Sweden because by definition people are "happy" in the socialist paradise and couldn't possibly want to revolt...just as all Malays in Malaysia are born muslims whether they want to be or not. Farmers are threatening to revolt because they see the insanity of the law and instinctively are protecting their animals and livelihood. Yet thousands of innocent children are being kidnapped every year by a vicious, profiteering class of government workers and virtually nobody raises a voice in protest. The state-controlled media is almost totally silent. The public is crying out to protect the wolves whilst ignoring the cries of their own children being emotionally and mentally traumatised as they are ripped from their mothers' bosoms never, in most cases, to ever see them again. What is more important: a wolf or a human being? Where is the outcry and the outrage when profiteering social service and foster care workers deliberately destroy well functioning families because of a perverted statist ideology driven by the greed for money? It's exactly the same system used by the maffia which maintains its cohesion by using threats (bullets) or bribes (money) to get what it wants. Statism is simply a variation on the same criminal theme.

    So why doesn't the public react? As Rabbi Meir Kahane once famously said:

      "There is a natural tendency of people not to see a problem until it appears to them in the form of a knife on their throats."

    Add to this Swedish journalist and author Herman Lindqvist's (6) observation about the dumbed-sown society that is now Utopian Sweden:

      "Swedish people are extremely cowardly, they lack moral courage, the people are extremely afraid of conflict, and few dare to say what they think."


    Herman Lindqvist

    And you begin to appreciate the nature of the problem when you couple these to Rick Warren's comment earlier cited. Lindqvist believes that Swedish statism is the most extreme of all of the Western nations and is one of the few in Sweden who dares to say so openly.

    A statist doesn't care what political party you belong to provided you operate within the framework of the overarching, intrusive and controlling state. For the same reason, it is claimed that Mayer Amschel Bauer Rothschild once said: "Give me control of a nation's money and I care not who makes it's laws". That is how communist East Germany managed to function with the same basic set of political parties, left and right, as in liberal West Germany before the collapse of communism and reunification. The difference between the two was the framework in which the respective parties operated. Now today's unified Germany is increasingly beginning to incrementally resemble the communist East German state it annexed with the whole of the European Union moving in the same direction.

    Statism nullifies true libertarian democracy just as money finds a way around a nation's laws through bribery and corruption. We are witnessing the rebirth of the Soviet Union Mark II but with the bureaucratic bourgoisie and their financiers in control rather than the workers and their controllers. A new class of nomenklatura run our lives in such a way, that were we all to actually see what they we were doing, we would never give our permission to them to continue for a moment longer. Welcome to the new synthesis of West and East that looks like the West on the outside but feels like the East on the inside. By the clever application of Hegelian principles coupled to behaviourist psychology we have become what we fought so long to prevent.

    In Part 2 we shall take a close look at the state's latest victims, a Dutch family on vaccation in the Swedish Utopia.

PEDOPHILE GOVERNMENT OF SWEDEN - CHILD TRAFFICKING SINCE 1924

Legal human trafficking in Sweden

den 3 februari 2014 kl. 17:47
Legal human trafficking in Sweden, Sweden goes against Europe and human rights by taking the children of a Dutch family strictly based on gossip and lies of racist villagers. they earn up to 1200 euro´s per child per day over the back of innocent children.

Feb 2 , 2014       

Munkfors Sweden July 12, 2013, while we are on vacation the social services storm our house followed by a group of eight policemen. Privacy does not seem to exist when the whole house is thoroughly searched without a search warrant or any grounds and we are treated like criminals. Poems of my 19 year old daughter who works as a writer are confiscated, her closets are searched and a sex toy is found in a draw which they respond very rude and abnormal on as if we are in the Middle Ages.

It is said that the house is not equipped with electricity, water and toilet facilities which however is based on gossip and lies of racist villagers. The witch hunt on our family was apparently started by the neighbors Varmlandstrafik company ( a company that arranges bus services for the town ) who have been interested in buying our villa. When this failed and a conflict arose between my husband and an employee about our parking lot. The bomb burst at Varmlandstrafik and they made a plan for our summer vacation to proceed very differently. Although we were able to show everything and we could proof that they were wrong,the file remained unchanged. The social workers take our children and calm us down with the thought that this will be solved after the weekend and that we would get them back.

My four minor children ages 7,10,13 and 16 are taken and for my 19 year old adult daughter the social workers make a very different plan. She gets suddenly accused of prostitution and that too without any evidence . My children are forcibly taken to the hospital where they have to undergo medical tests. My two youngest children are then taken to a foster home, my two older children to an orphanage and my adult daughter to a closed institution .

Even the Swedish media only publishes the story of the social services and keeps our words unpublished. Television media who were first interested and even interviewed us on location called off at the last minute that the item about the truth could not broadcast since according to the head of direction of TV4 it could put Sweden in a bad spot but what does get placed in the newspaper are unconfirmed accusations like that we are supposedly wanted by Interpol and the children have had no form of education. This all was of course bizarre, false and not true Of course. We never had a problem with any authorities and the kids were always provided with education.

What was said to be just one single weekend lasts almost 3 months and the only contact we have with our children is by phone. We have no right to visit and can not see our children.

Karlstad, Sweden September 30, 2013, the first trial almost three months later progressing disastrous the social worker´s attitude remains extremely unprofessional towards us but also to our children. The fact in this case stays that there was no proof of the charges and that we could refute and prove everything was a lie and that their opinion was based on town gossip and smelled a lot like racism.

Karlstad Sweden October 11, 2013 , the decision of the judge . Surprised everyone he releases my oldest daughter, and my 16 year old son and 13 year old daughter are free to go back home with us and return to the Netherlands . However, my daughter of 7 and son of 10 are required to stay in Sweden.

Goteborg, Sweden 16 January. The appeal takes place at the Supreme Court Kammarrätten in Goteborg . Only me who drove no less than 1,600 kilometers drive is actually on time. The lawyers and social workers are two hours late so the time of the lawsuit got shorter word. Again outrageous accusations without any proof are being spoken of and I barely get a chance to defend myself.

Goteborg Sweden January 31, 2014 . The higher court decides and the statement is that my two children will stay in Sweden for a further period of six months without any visitation rights or the ability to see my kids. Nothing changes everything stays the same.

There are a few conclusions to this case, it makes no sense, it is purely a witch hunt for a Dutch family , the cries of racism and prejudice show us what kind of country Sweden is. They also do something that is forbidden by Europe and the Swedish court is violating the European laws against Article 6 of the Human Rights and many other laws seem to have no meaning in Sweden.

This case should never have taken place, since we are no Swedish citizens and we were never registered in Sweden. We were just tourists from Holland who had a vacation house there but we guess that there are more things that never see the light of day in Sweden. I hope our story opens the eyes of every one about the corrupt practices in Sweden and that they will be taken under the microscope. The organization "defense for children" stands fully behind us, and they find this thing so absurd that media attention is certainly needed. Our children need to go back to their own country and family so they can continue with their lives and our endless grief finally stops.

Links of Swedish newspapers also guilty of defamation in this way of gossip journalism .

UPDATE

Thank you very much for your kind email, we do everything we can as a family to get this story out in the open. We already contacted Ruby and hope she will reply very soon. Our situation has been going on already for 7 months now and while we are from Holland living in Belgium and were only on vacation in Sweden we still don´t have our 2 smallest children back they are still suffering and fighting their battle against those manipulative monsters of foster parents who brainwash and poison their thoughts wit the stockholmsyndrom method most foster parents in Sweden use.

My children are not my children any more its like they are empty inside and that reflects through their eyes. We only have the chance to talk to them twice a week on skype and those 20 minutes save them from being totally brainwashed but I wonder for how long they can keep up resisting against the foster parents.

I hope there is a way in which you can help, at least by making this story public with as much media attention that is possible.

Best regards
Nancy Schouten
