Swedish police said they have granted a permit for a protest where the organiser plans to burn a Koran outside Stockholm's main mosque on Wednesday, the start of the Muslim three-day Eid al-Adha holiday.
Under a heavy police presence and with around a dozen opponents shouting at him in Arabic, Momika, dressed in beige trousers and a shirt, addressed the crowd of several dozen through a megaphone.
He stomped on the Koran and put on it strips of bacon, which is forbidden in Islam. He then lit a few pages on fire before slamming it shut and kicked it like a football while waving Swedish flags

I saw plenty of libs defending this using the exact same arguments that typical islamophobic chuds use. Claiming , or "but the guy who did it is Iraqi!" etc. etc.
things not to do when waiting for Turkey to approve your NATO membership
Swedish NATO membership was never going to happen anyway, in a million years. America remembers Olof Palmes 1972 Christmas speech and have never forgiven us for it. They simply want to militarily deindustrialize us and ensure our silence of foreign matters. And if they can do that without admitting us to NATO then all the better.
first I'd heard of this speech. darkly typical that there's no English NATOpedia page for it but I found a translation here: https://scrap.tf/raffles/VV7UTC
That's kinda badass
Critical support to the protestors?
One less NATO member.
