'Ban Islam in Sweden': Meet the Christian Priest Who Burns 'Satan’s Witchcraft Book' - the Qur'an (Videos)

In a bold act of defiance, 48-year-old former priest Jade Sandberg took to Odenplan in Stockholm last Friday, igniting controversy as she publicly burned the Qur’an and called for the banishment of Islam in Sweden. Sandberg’s protest, captured on video by press photographer Roger Sahlström, attracted curious onlookers and sparked widespread debate across the country.

Sandberg, a former priest in the General Apostolic Church (AAK), an independent Old Catholic Church, has been vocal about her opposition to Islam. She remains resolute in her beliefs despite facing repercussions, including being forced to leave her priestly position last year. “No worldly power can take this away from me,” Sandberg asserts, referring to her priesthood as a calling.

“What I do is love,” Sandberg tells Swedish media group Samnytt, defending her actions. She sees herself as a voice for the Swedish people, expressing concerns about the Islamization of Sweden. Sandberg argues that Islam, Islamism, and jihadism are indistinguishable and incompatible with Swedish values rooted in Christianity and the Bible.

Sandberg’s demonstrations have not been isolated incidents. She reveals that before the Qur’an burning at Odenplan, she had burned the Islamic holy book on several occasions, including at Benny Fredriksson’s square in central Stockholm. Undeterred by criticism, she plans to continue her protests, scheduling further Koran burnings at Odenplan on February 23 and March 8.

However, Sandberg remains tight-lipped about whether she has obtained police approval for future demonstrations. Her actions have garnered attention from the media, with Aftonbladet naming her among “Sweden’s most troublesome residents.” When asked about the article, Sandberg laughs, unfazed by the label.

Sandberg’s stance on Islam has drawn comparisons to other well-known targetted figures named in the same article, including Islamic-critics Salwan Momika and Rasmus Paludan. Despite relentless left-wing verbal attacks, she stands firm in her conviction that Islam poses a threat to Sweden. “Islam is not good for our country,” Sandberg asserts, highlighting the gravity of her mission to protect Swedish society from the dangers of Islam.

As debates over Islam, Islamic immigration, freedom of expression, and cultural integration continue to unfold in Sweden, Jade Sandberg’s actions serve as a brave example and inspiration for other Europeans.
