Israel on Monday condemned as "shockingly hostile" comments by Sweden's Foreign Minister Margot Wallstrom which seemed to link the Israeli-Palestinian conflict with the ISIS-backed terror attacks in Paris.

After the Paris attacks, Wallstrom was asked the following question on Swedish television:

"How worried are you about the radicalization of young people in Sweden who are fighting for ISIS?"

According to a translation provided by the Foreign Ministry, Wallstrom answered, "Obviously, we have reason to be worried, not just in Sweden but across the world -- because there are so many that are being radicalized. Here, once again, we are brought back to situations like the one in the Middle East, where not least, the Palestinians see that there is not a future. We must either accept a desperate situation or resort to violence."

#4  We must either accept a desperate situation or resort to violence.
I choose the second alternative.

#1  Gee, normally the Swedes are so phlegmatic - which apparently has become a synonym for stupid and cowardly.
