"Jews are leaving Sweden's third largest city," writes the Swedish daily Nyheter Idag. The Malmö Jewish Congregation was founded in 1871 and now so many Jews want to leave the city that "there will be no Jewish population in Malmö within ten years."
All the Jewish children of Malmö, explains the newspaper, have been exposed to anti-Semitism. “But the hatred of Jews that came with migrants from the Middle East and North Africa is justified by many Swedish politicians as a 'criticism of Israel' or legitimized by some of the city's leading Social Democratic politicians."
:Those who have been given refuge in Sweden have no right to threats and violence against anyone in our country. But this is where it becomes politically difficult. It becomes difficult in Swedish politically correct logic when one minority harasses another minority. It was easy when the criticism concerned the Nazis, it gets complicated when the anti-Semitism of the left and the Middle East becomes evident ".
Sweden had been, in the XX century, one of the most welcoming places for Jews in Europe (the hero of the Holocaust Raoul Wallenberg also came from there) and Malmö was the city-refuge for the many who managed to escape Nazi deportation. Swedish writer Paulina Neuding spoke at a conference of the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees: “I live in Mälmo. It was once a safe haven for Jews, but today only 200 remain and they are harassed ”.
When she first arrived in Sweden after her rescue from a Nazi concentration camp, Judith Popinski rebuilt her life in Malmö and for the next sixty years she lived happily in her adopted homeland. In 2009, a chapel in his Jewish community of 700 was set on fire. "I never thought I'd see this hatred again in my life, not in Sweden," Ms. Popinski told the Telegraph. "This new hatred comes from Muslim immigrants, the Jewish people are now afraid".

When Islam moved in, Jews fled Sweden
With 176 nationalities, Malmö is the fourth most multi-ethnic city in the world after London, New York and Washington. But there seems to be no room for a small minority: the Jews. Op-ed.
