Social Democratic Students of Sweden
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Social Democratic Students of Sweden (Swedish: Socialdemokratiska studentförbundet, or S-Studenter) is the student organization of the Swedish Social Democratic Party.
[edit] Controversy
In November 2005 the Social Democratic Students of Sweden together with the Swedish Association of Christian Social Democrats and the Muslim Council of Sweden invited the Palestinian-British academic Azzam Tamimi to hold a speech at a seminar at the Stockholm Mosque entitled Islam and Democratic Development (Swedish: Islam och demokratiutveckling). This led to strong criticism.[1] Tamimi has referred to Israel as a "cancer" and is especially known for his support for suicide bombings against Israeli civilians.[2]
