The Sweden Democrats want to appoint a truth commission with the purpose of stopping support to organizations with links to Islamism and terrorism – and accuse The Social Democrats of "long-standing silence" and "political hypocrisy".

This is written by party leader Jimmie Åkesson and Mattias Karlsson, chairman of the foreign affairs committee, on Aftonbladet's debate page.

SD will, within the framework of cooperation with the government, push for the establishment of a commission that is tasked with investigating whether and how Swedish tax funds during the Social Democrats' time in power "could have been used to support organizations with links to Islamism and terrorism".

"Through aid and political platforms, they have contributed to giving legitimacy to groups like Hamas, which not only wants to eradicate Israel but also spreads hate and threats against Jews all over the world", they write on Aftonbladet.
