Summary
Salwan Momika, the Iraqi man who staged several Quran burnings in Sweden in 2023, was shot and killed in Sodertalje, near Stockholm.
His actions had sparked international outrage, riots, and diplomatic tensions. Swedish police confirmed a murder investigation is underway, and several arrests have been made.
Momika, who sought asylum in Sweden in 2018, faced charges of incitement to hatred, with a verdict scheduled for the day after his death.
His protests were permitted under free speech laws but led to legal action against him.
Don’t be coy, you know perfectly nwell what I mean.
He was murdered because of religious persecution.
I’ve burned thousands of Qurans, it’s quite easy, you just download one and copy it a thousand times on a USB. Should I deserve death now too at the hands of extremist sky daddy worshippers?
I’m not being coy. You can do whatever you like, and no, you don’t “deserve death” for that. But the idea that you are being persecuted is in your imagination. Do I deserve death if I piss on the motorcycle of a Hells Angel? Am I persecuted if I am beaten for it? There was zero reason (other than provocation) for burning those Korans. He intended to provoke, and he succeeded. Congratulations.
You are either spectacularly naive, or just plain lying your ass off, or you’re just trolling and honestly I’m not sure which it is.
He burned those Korans because one must be able to do that without being murdered. I am all against book burning but when a single book is burned to prove a point, I’m all for it.
In this case, the point was made by Muslims that they’re insane terrorist skydaddy believers who will murder anyone they disagree with. Fuck. That. Shit.
You will never live in a world where there are not consequences for your actions, whether those consequences are right or wrong. People get offended, sometimes violently so, over all kinds of things. What point did this guy prove? “Muslims” didn’t kill him, one Muslim did.
