Liam Clancy Writes in a July 3 WorldNetDaily article:
Sweden’s largest summer music festival is calling it quits, thanks to a wave of sexual violence against women committed by the nation’s growing migrant population.
The four-day event known as the Bråvalla festival has hosted artists such as Kanye West, Robbie Williams and Iron Maiden. But next year’s event already has been canceled after a second straight year of reported sexual assaults.
The Bråvalla festival, held in the small southern Swedish city of Norrkoping, announced the decision after a rape was reported on Friday during a performance by pop singer Håkan Hellström.
Swedish police told local media they also recorded 11 cases of sexual assault at the event, which wrapped up July 1.
But despite his assertion that Sweden’s “growing migrant population” is to blame for the rapes at the festival, Clancy provides no evidence that a “migrant” committed any rape there.
Indeed, the idea that migrants are engaging in mass rape of festival-goers apparently originated with a police claim following reports of assaults at last year’s festival — a claim police later retracted.
Without actual evidence to back up his claim, Clancy resorts to anti-Muslim fearmongering — because apparently “migrant” is synonymous with “Muslim” — calling on anti-Muslim activists like Robert Spencer and Pamela Geller to hawk their hate and ominously warning that “Sweden is now home to 2,000 Islamist extremists” and that “jihadists are expected to continue to flood Sweden as they return home.”
Where did all this hate come from when Clancy can’t even prove his main claim? A note at the end of the article explains it all: “WND News Editor Leo Hohmann contributed to this report.” He, of course, would be WND’s chief Islamophobe.
After last year’s “migrant” fiasco, a writer for the UK’s Guardian stated: “It’s wrong to lay the blame, as we do for so many of the world’s problems, on a faceless foreign mass.” Clancy, Hohmann and WND clearly believe otherwise.
