Caught this on Jewschool with a link to the Jerusalem Post.

Swedish police break up anti-Israel riot

Several hundred anti-Israel rioters ran amok in Stockholm Sunday night, as they tried to disrupt a pro-Israel rally.

Most of them wearing Arab headdresses, or Kaffiyas, wrapped around their faces, rioters
made their way towards the pro-Israel rally.

Rioters vandalized stores and broke windows in the area, including the facade of the local Israeli tourism bureau.


Here is a link to a Swedish newspaper which has pictures.

Not that I was going anytime soon, but I hope that Sweden isn't added to the list of European countries whrere it's unsafe to walk the streets with a yarmulke or a chai necklace.
