I'll google-translate this article so you non-swedish speaking people at least understand what the main point of this article is all about.

Expert: Bombs are much worse than expected
First we talked about suicide's equipment as "amateurish".
Now the experts have changed their minds.
Taimour Abdulwahab was carrying enough explosives to kill hundreds of people.
And injury to 500.
Twelve minutes before the first explosion at Drottninggatan Taimour Abdulwahab sent an email with a number of terrorist threats to the security police from his mobile.
At 16:52 the car exploded in a sea of fire and Taimour went out in the Christmas rush. SAPO's theory is that he was heading for Finland or Åhléns.
- It was Christmas season and he was in Stockholm and was extremely well equipped with bomb materials. There is a reasonable assumption that he was going to a place with as many people as possible, "said chief prosecutor Tomas Lindstrand.
Blow up in more places
With the bar Taimour Abdulwahab a backpack full of nails and explosives, a bomb belt and another bomb that looked like a pressure cooker.
- One hypothesis is that the parts were destined for different locations and that he would blow himself up as a sort of finale, "says Tomas Lindstrand.
But along the way something went awry.
- A mistake was made and some of the bombs fired and caused his death.
Double-explosive
On Sunday, the day after the bombing, considered various bomb experts his equipment from what was known by the police. Some of the first the reviews was that the equipment he carried with him at his death was amateurish.
Now, instead describing the failed attempt as "well planned". And have a better idea of how much explosives he really wore on.
- There are more explosive than we knew before. It has doubled compared to last Sunday, said the bomb expert Bo Janzon to SvD.
It was probably just a coincidence that the planned massacre of the holiday shopping season did not occur.
- He was extremely well equipped with bomb materials, "said chief prosecutor Tomas Lindstrand.
400-500 wounded
The exact amount is still unknown, but a rough estimate gives some indication of that power had been unleashed on the bombs exploded simultaneously.
Bo Janzon believe that the explosion could injure people up to one hundred meters from the offender. This means a distance of 200 meters where all had been in mortal danger.
- It could have been a hundred people killed and 400-500 injured, said Janzon.[/quote]

[QUOTE=thisispain;26663225]well stopping immigration is not an answer because you need immigration to survive economically[/QUOTE]
reducing the amount of refugees that come to sweden to spend money as they can't speak the language, have no education, etc. and take those who have education, those who know the language, those who will work is one solution to economical survival.
who is going to hire a person who can't speak swedish, who has no real education, who in the worst cases can't even read?
there is a difference between "stopping immigration" and stopping paying for education and unemployment benefits to people who are more unlikely to work than not to work.
then stuffing malmö full of immigrants, is sure to cause cultural clashes like the shootings there has been in the past, and sadly some of the immigrants are extremists, like this bombing made in the name of jihad. luckily nobody was killed except the bomber.

that's stupid, there's no way that he could have killed 100 people
i'd say maximum 20
[QUOTE=Mryamanami;26712781]how can you be sure, he had like 6 bombs plus a bag with over 200 nails, that would bring alot of people to their deaths.[/QUOTE]
Let's start with the car.
He used some sort of explosive (don't know what) to make the car go boom. You can see the car burning here:
[url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pMaGiEtIC0[/url]
2 people were slightly injuried by the first bomb inside the car. No one was injured by the other "boom" which was probably some small explosive
He probably expected it to behave as a thermobaric charge since the car was loaded with some LPG cylinders, probably long & thin model. I can't find any numbers about how many.
LPG cylinders has a safety valve which safely releases the LPG at X degrees. These were untampered with and thus did their job. See more here (it's about propane )
[url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCf8z89HhE0[/url]
You'd need a good fuel-air mixture and a booster charge maybe 25 ms later to get this FAE effect. Kind of hard for a terrorist to achieve this when LPG is one of the worst choices + it requires a good air volume.
The pipe bombs on his stomach
[url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p89uR7jb4oY[/url] at 0:50
From reports, the window near the explosion was still intact, small cylindric shaped containers with a pyrotechnical mix total of ~500g, probably flash or black powder and barely any fragments causing a cluster effect with most of its blast pointed upwards at what rate, 400-1000m/s? Even if all the pipebombs had exploded the damage would have been marginal, judging by the small energy that the pipe bomb that exploded generated.
The backpack with nails
I can't find anything about what the backpack was loaded with except nails but let us assume he used black powder there aswell, then yes it would have created more damage but it would still be relatively limited by the low energy generated. If the backpack was not loaded with any explosives, which means he that he expected the pipe bombs on his stomach to spread the nails? Judging by pictures of the suicide bomber, the damages on his body would be like blowing a can of hair spray near your body and I doubt it would have spread the nails any significant distance even if all the pipe bombs had exploded
The last explosive, or "something that looks like a pressure cooker bomb"
A pressure cooker with thermobaric composition of a few kilograms can cause a devastating effect, especially indoors.
Thermobaric charges by all means but I doubt an idiot with black powder in his belt can get a hold of such a highly explosive substance in his pressure cooker bomb.
Could the suicide bomber kill 100 people, IF he had used maybe plastic explosives, his car bomb causing a big crowd to gather and EVERYTHING would have worked out perfectly? It's likely
What's the chance of that? I doubt it even exists.

Somalia and Iraq was also the biggest group due to related reasons.

That's what it looks like to me too. The opinions (when voiced) of swedish people on here tend to be rather strong on this subject.

Those publications are per year and not a concluded view of all immigrants. We've had a HUGE amount of immigrants from Finland during the 50's, 60's and the beginning of 70's. Then we've had immigrants from Jugoslavia during the 90's. Iraqis being the biggest immigration group is only recent.

Because that doesn't have any relevance to how many immigrants come from each country, which we are discussing.
Damn, just because we're discussing immgration doesn't automatically mean we are discussing crime, did you even read the discussion?
pretty sure splendor is just gentleman reincarnated which means just like before i'm not going to get any evidence and simply get bullshit from jihad watch, and brage nyman doesn't even know what he's talking about so this is a dead-end argument
if anyone wants to dispute the census please proceed
