How Quran burnings in Sweden have increased threats from Islamic militants_我的网站

A |     STOCKHOLM -- The killing of two Swedish citizens in an attack ahead of a soccer match in Brussels has shocked the Scandinavian country, although the government has been warning for months that Swedes were at greater risk since a recent string of public desecrations of the Quran holy book by a handful of anti-Islam activists. Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson on Tuesday noted that the government and the security service in August had raised the terror alert to the second-highest level following threats against Sweden by Islamic extremists. “Now we know with chilling clarity that there were grounds for those concerns,” he said. The desecrations, primarily by an Iraqi refugee living in Sweden, have sparked angry reactions in Muslim countries. In June, demonstrators in Iraq stormed the Swedish Embassy and the Iraqi government cut off diplomatic relations with Sweden. The desecrations have raised questions -– including in Sweden -– about why such acts are allowed.Swedish officials have repeatedly condemned the desecrations while saying they are allowed under freedom of speech. The government is investigating whether to give police greater authority to stop such acts on security grounds.“Not everything that is legal is appropriate," Kristersson said Tuesday. “What you do in Sweden can have consequences elsewhere.”In August, Sweden raised its terror alert to the second-highest level for the first time since 2016 following the Quran burnings and threats from militant groups.In a statement Tuesday, the Swedish Security Service, known as SÄPO, said the situation was ”serious” and that it was “working closely with the Belgian authorities.”Kristersson said he had been told by Belgium that the perpetrator "had stayed in Sweden but was not known to the Swedish police.”The European Union's passport-free zone allowed him to travel to Sweden. “We have an openness in Europe, which is one of the important reasons why we need to keep an eye on the EU’s external border, because otherwise people can easily move between European countries,” Kristersson said.In Sweden, there is no law specifically prohibiting the desecration of the Quran or other religious texts. The right to hold public demonstrations is protected by the Swedish Constitution. Police generally give permission based on whether they believe a public gathering can be held without major disruptions or risks to public safety.Many in Sweden say criticizing religion, even in a manner that is considered offensive by believers, must be allowed and that Sweden should resist pressure to re-introduce blasphemy laws which were abandoned decades ago in the predominantly Lutheran but highly secularized nation.Sweden, once largely insulated from militant violence, has experienced attacks in recent years.On April 7, 2017, Rakmat Akilov, an Uzbek man who said he wanted to punish Sweden for joining a coalition against the Islamic State group, drove a stolen truck into a crowd in Stockholm, killing five people and wounding 14 others. He was convicted of terror-related murder and given a life sentence.Another man, Taimour Abdulwahab, blew himself up in the same area in December 2010 when it was packed with Christmas shoppers, killing himself and injuring two people.A 2007 drawing of the Prophet Muhammad by a Swedish cartoonist, Lars Vilks, raised tensions. In May 2011, Vilks was assaulted while giving a speech in Uppsala, and vandals unsuccessfully tried to burn down his home in southern Sweden.。    北京时间8月22日，据名记Shams报道，六届NBA全明星德罗赞已经同意与丹佛掘金签下一份1年390万美元的合同。         德罗赞本月刚满37岁。国王队为缩减薪资开支，将他那份部分保障合同裁掉，他在7月成为自由球员。

C |          名记海恩斯表示，尼古拉・约基奇、阿隆・戈登以及贾马尔・穆雷都参与了招募德罗赞加盟掘金的工作。消息人士向海恩斯透露，总得分排在NBA历史第16位的德罗赞十分渴望为一支争冠强队效力。

D |          尽管德罗赞已经不在巅峰水准，而且他向来不是一名优秀的防守球员，但这份新合同下他依旧可以提供很大价值。由于掘金已经超出第二土豪线，德罗赞这份合同是老将底薪。         作为2009年选秀大会的9号秀，德罗赞职业生涯出勤表现十分稳定，NBA17个赛季里，每个赛季常规赛出场数都不少于60场；过去五个赛季，他每一年的出场数都至少达到74场。         掘金本周早些时候将佩顿・沃特森送往克利夫兰，这笔交易是一笔涉及五支球队的先签后换操作的一部分。作为回报，掘金得到骑士2031年无保护首轮签，以及来自国王转交的2032年次轮签。
