Sweden's Far Right Gains Seat in Parliament

Voters in Sweden’s Parliamentary Elections yesterday gave 5.7 percent of the vote to Sweden's Far Right Social Democratic Party.  This will give the party 20 seats in Sweden's Parliament. The political platform they ran on was largely anti-immigration and especially addressed the issue of Muslim immigrants.  Below is a commercial run in order to call attention to Burqa-clad social service recipients taking from grandma's pension. It is with near certainty, that the future will see a rise in right-wing political representation in nearly all Western European nations. Part of this rise will certainly be associated with rising Muslim populations and economic decline.  In global conditions, that are becoming eerily reminiscent of the World War II era, one must wonder if the path is being paved in the West for a return to old fashioned fascism.
