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.

    Oh shit, so the warlords WERE local. Thank you, thats all i needed to know.

    From watching that doc, it looks as the Americans are trying to help and none was received. Like the first shot, they try to explain how hygiene works, likely cause the afghans dont know, and they just say “idiot, show how mines work”. Animals. But i guess they were the only ones that wanted to fight for “freedom”
