The forced closure of two independent Muslim schools in Sweden has cast a renewed spotlight on efforts by Muslim Brotherhood-linked Islamists to radicalize children and establish parallel societies that subvert core Western values.
The two schools — Framstegsskolan in Stockholm and Imanskolan in Uppsala — were closed after the Swedish security service Säpo (Säkerhetspolisen) warned that students were being influenced by Islamist ideology and were at risk of being radicalized.
