While much of Europe is fighting back against the elite ruling class, along with their globalist agenda and their mass importation of Muslim migrants – as evidenced by last month’s E.U. elections – the Danes seem somehow resigned to accepting the new normal; as cultural jihad (Hijrah) creeps across their nation.
In 1960, the population of Denmark was 4,580,708. Today, that number stands at 5,768,712. This growth appears to be largely due to immigration.

In recent months there’s evidence that, pressured by the influence of the Islamic minority, Danes are slowing relinquishing their traditional freedoms – like free speech. This disturbing story was reported by Judith Bergman at Gatestone Institute two months ago ~
This March, an outspoken critic of Islam, Jaleh Tavakoli, Danish-Iranian blogger and author of the book, “Public Secrets of Islam,” was threatened by the Social Supervisory Authority (Socialtilsyn Øst) that her foster-daughter would be removed from her care after Tavakoli shared an online video of the rape and murder by Islamic State terrorists in Morocco of two Scandinavian young women.
She was informed in a letter that the government agency’s approval of her husband and her as foster parents — they had been raising the 8-year-old since she was a newborn baby — had been rescinded and that the girl might be taken away from them, as the authority did not consider them to “have the necessary quality to have children in your care.”
In other words, dare to criticize the religion-which-must-not-be-named, and you’re no longer fit to be a foster parent.
Other Danes who have dared to express their disapproval of creeping sharia find themselves increasingly banned, censored – even imprisoned.
One particularly provocative politician and activist, Rasmus Paludan, frequently holds anti-Islamist protests in which he either throws a Koran around, burns it or puts bacon on it. Naturally, this sparks riots among the easily-riled Muslims, so the solution is to restrict free speech. In other words, these immigrants who we allowed into our country, can’t seem to behave like civilized westerners, so everyone else has to shut up.
“If people start to change their legal, democratic statements because somebody wants to hurt them or try to kill them, well, then we don’t have a democracy anymore. So, I am not at fault whatsoever that there is a threat to my person…
There are two things in Denmark that are completely legal, but which no one dares to do: To defile the Koran by burning it, throwing it or putting bacon in it, and to draw the prophet Muhammad. The reason is that the risk of being attacked or killed is very high. We do not believe that assailants and murderers should decide where the limits of free speech should be, and therefore we think it is important to do just that”. ~ Rasmus Paludan
Clearly, Muslims in Denmark aren’t assimilating any more than those in other European countries (Which always begs the question – why did they move there in the first place?). And they’re aren’t exactly contributing, productive members of society ~
According to a 2017 report by Statistics Denmark, only about half of non-Western immigrants between the ages of 16 and 64 are employed (53% of men and 45% of women). When broken down into countries of origin, however, major differences among migrants were revealed — with the employment rate being particularly low among those hailing from Iraq, Lebanon, Somalia and Syria.
Analyzing Statistics Denmark data, the Danish Employers Confederation revealed that in 2016, 41.5% of non-Western immigrants were on welfare, while only 17.5% of ethnic Danes were supported by the same benefits. In 2017, a third of all the people provided for by Denmark’s basic social-welfare system were immigrants, which constitutes a rise of 82% in a mere seven years.
These figures show that the public expenses connected to immigration will, in the long run, bring the welfare state to an end […]
According to a February 2018 Danish Finance Ministry report, the government’s net annual expenditure on non-Western immigrants in 2015 was 36 billion Danish kroner — approximately $5 billion USD. As there are approximately 5 million ethnic Danes, the taxpayer cost borne by each individual, in effect, came to $1,000 per year, or $4,000 for a family of four.
That figure, however, only refers to public budgets directly related to immigrants. It does not include the additional indirect public funds spent on law enforcement, schools, social security administration and other ancillary matters, due to the presence of non-Western immigrants.
Somehow, none of this matters too much to the average Dane. Last week they took a decisive turn to the left in their general election ~
(O)n June 5, the Danes gave the center-left and far left parties on the political spectrum — the Social Democratic Party, Det Radikale Venstre (the Danish Social Liberal Party), Socialistisk Folkeparti (the Socialist People’s Party), and Enhedslisten (the Red-Green Alliance) — 91 seats in parliament, a majority out of the 179 available seats. In doing so, the Danes waved goodbye to the current liberal-conservative government […]
A significant development in this election was that anti-immigration parties generally fared poorly.
They’ll be waving goodbye to their country in a decade or two ~
Some Danish analysts, such as the author and commentator Kasper Støvring, estimated that Danes did not vote for the anti-immigration parties this time because, “Many citizens wrongly think that the immigration issue is under control and that it can therefore safely be left to the Left. It is not under control”.

(2016) The issue of parallel Muslim societies has sparked renewed debate in Denmark after a three-part television documentary, “The Mosques Behind the Veil” was aired at the beginning of March on Danish TV2.
