Swedish government body funding book on Israeli ‘apartheid’

The Swedish Arts Council is sponsoring and distributing a new book which presents Israel as a racist entity comparable to apartheid South Africa.
The council, a government body, has allocated $8,985 toward publishing and distributing "The bride is beautiful but she is married to another man - Zionism - an ideology at the end of the road?”, the council told JTA this week.
The book by Ingmar Karlsson, a retired senior Swedish diplomat, states: “The fundamental difference between South African and Zionist colonialism is the former wanted land and people while the latter only wanted land.”
A committee of the council selected the book out of 1,600 applications for its “high quality in terms of content, from both a technical and editorial viewpoint” and “the reliability of the facts,” among other considerations, Maria Agren of the council wrote in an email to JTA.
