It was a conspiracy involving politicians, police officials, and journalists.<\/p>\n<p>The European public was programmed by a relentless media campaign to believe immigration was good; criticism of immigration was racist.<\/p>\n<p>Six months before the deadly Islamic terror attacks in Belgium, left-wing demonstrators were playing dead in the streets of Brussels, protesting for more immigration from the Middle East and against stronger borders in Europe \u2014 stronger borders that might have saved the lives of 34 people killed in Brussels last month.<\/p>\n<p>Sold a Bill Goods? The Left\u2019s mantra has been \u201cno walls, no borders.\u201d But many Europeans now realize they were sold a bill of goods about open borders and immigration by the political and media class.<\/p>\n<p>Voices who warned about the threat from open immigration were either branded racist or simply ignored. Belgian Jewish leader Jo\u00ebl Rubinfeld warned CBN News a year and a half ago that the Belgian government was too soft on Muslim extremists, and that more attacks were coming.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe say you need a very long fork to eat with the devil. I think there is no fork long enough to eat with Islamism,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>And the multicultural charade has now clearly crumbled \u2014 in Germany when the city of Cologne was caught trying to cover-up massive New Year\u2019s sex attacks, in Sweden where the public learned that the police and media covered up large scale sexual assaults at a summer music festival in Stockholm last year, and in Brussels, which became a home to some of the most dangerous terrorists in Europe.<\/p>\n<p>In cities across Western Europe, women are now afraid to walk alone at night on the street. Muslims make up almost half of Belgium\u2019s prison population, and Jews everywhere live in fear of anti-Semitic attacks.<\/p>\n<p>This didn\u2019t just happen, but in many cases the information has been suppressed.<\/p>\n<p>Immigration Cover-Up Sweden has been notorious for censoring the problems of immigration. Newspapers obscured the faces and changed the skin tone of crime suspects with immigrant backgrounds, while showing their faces as if they were white native Swedes.<\/p>\n<p>The Swedish police even had a special code when handling immigrant crime: code 291.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCode 291 \u2014 and this is in all the Swedish newspapers now \u2014 the police were told to cover up any crime related to the refugees. Do not tell the media. Do not leave a paper trail,\u201d Swedish policy analyst Tino Sanandaji told CBN News.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cApparently now we\u2019re finding out there were hundreds of violent crimes,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Some Swedes have become so frustrated with the censorship that they go to social media to get the truth out themselves. For instance, one YouTube video posted by \u201cThe Angry Foreigner\u201d begins with, \u201cHey, welcome to Sweden. This is the number one rape capital of Europe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A lot of Swedes now realize they\u2019ve been lied to, and they\u2019re wondering what else the government and media have been hiding from them.<\/p>\n<p>A Muzzled Media \u201cYou have a lot of problems that were never reported until literally days ago,\u201d Sanandaji said. \u201cIt was factually true, but they decided that it was against their ideological agenda. They covered it up. Now we\u2019re finding it out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The man who found evidence that one of Sweden\u2019s largest papers covered up the sex assaults in Stockholm is journalist Chang Frick, who says journalists have been either too afraid or not allowed to report the truth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI read books about the Soviet Union and everyone was checking each other. This is the situation we have in Sweden. But it\u2019s more in a soft way,\u201d Frick said. \u201cYou don\u2019t get in jail for having the wrong thoughts. You would lose your job. You would get socially stigmatized.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The paper, Dagens Nyheter, says the claim that it was part of a cover-up is \u201ca lie,\u201d and that it could not confirm the story.<\/p>\n<p>Blood on Their Hands? Ingrid Carlqvist, a distinguished fellow at the Gatestone Institute, has been telling Swedes for years that they were being misled about immigration. Now, she feels vindication.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve been trying to tell the Swedish people this for five years or something. And everyone said, \u2018No, it couldn\u2019t be like that. Politicians don\u2019t lie like that. Journalists are honest. They couldn\u2019t lie about this, no, no, no,\u2019\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow everything has exploded, and there is not a living person in this country who can go on (covering their eyes),\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Swedish immigration policy changed. It was forced to because it faced a system-wide collapse. There are now guards on the border, and some Swedish papers have reported more openly about the problems of immigration.<\/p>\n<p>But if you think the European Left has learned its lesson about the danger of open borders, you would be wrong. After the Brussels attack, there were several articles essentially blaming terrorism on racism and calling for continued opened borders.<\/p>\n<p>There are refugees who need help, but Europe\u2019s misplaced generosity has brought war to its doorstep. And some believe that politicians, police officials, and journalists now have blood on their hands.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blood on Their Hands: Europe\u2019s Immigration Lie, by Dale Hurd, CBN.com, April 5, 2016 BRUSSELS \u2014 We now know that there has been a cover-up by governments and the media in Western Europe about the potential danger of immigration from &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/?p=92852\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9993,139],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-92852","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-europe","category-islam"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/92852","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=92852"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/92852\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":92853,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/92852\/revisions\/92853"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=92852"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=92852"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=92852"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
