In a blog post about "contemporary left-wing Nazis" she reacts to reports of anti-Semitic slogans allegedly chanted during a "Palestine demonstration" in Gothenburg. She also thinks that individuals without citizenship who "incite violence and threaten the Jewish minority" should be deported.

"To even get a Swedish citizenship, it should, just like in the German state of Saxony-Anhalt, be required that the one who wants to become a Swedish citizen also recognizes the state of Israel's right" writes Alice Teodorescu Måwe. She also believes that the one who wants to become a Swedish citizen should have "the intention of adopting the Jewish-Christian values that the Swedish democracy is based on”.

The Christian Democrats have not yet discussed the proposals, but press secretary Arvid Janson tells Expressen that it is first up to the party's working group for strengthened community to take a stance. Alice Teodorescu Måwe is a member of that group.
