Bergen: Afghan suspect in knifing murder, claims he was attacked for being Christian Via Aftenposten : One man was killed and another injured following a knifing at Ny-Paradis state asylum centre in Bergen western Norway, Tuesday.  The suspect is an Afghan who made headlines last year when he was attacked with boiling water by fellow residents of his asylum center because he was a Christian convert.  A Somali man was charged for the attack, and was sentenced to five months in prison.  On appeal he was acquitted, as the court believed him it had been an accident. "He had big problems due to his Christian faith.  There are many in the asylum center who don't accept people converting from Islam to Christianity,' Issa Hammer says of the Afghan suspect.  He's a friend of the two Christian Afghans at the center and goes with them to church. Tuesday he got a desperate phone call from one of them.  "He said he'd been attacked with a knife by a Somali.  He sa...

Norway: Anti-racists criticise musician Via the Foreigner : Norwegian NGOs are censuring singer-songwriter Hans Rotmo for being immigrant and Muslim-hostile following release of his new composition. Mr Rotmo�s song, �Vi fra andre�, is allegedly a pastiche on a poem by Norwegian writer Henrik Wergeland (1808-1845) from 1841 called �Vi ere en Nation, vi med�, which advocates 17th May � Norway�s National Day � should also be for children. However, the connections with Wergeland�s work become more clouded in the singer-songwriter�s version. Norwegian Centre Against Racism director Kari Helene Partapuoli thinks the text is mostly in �extremely bad taste� and �malicious at times.� �The entire text is based on quite a few simplistic prejudices against immigrants and Muslims in Norway,� she tells Adresseavisen, �it is a cheerful mixture of misguided xenophobia and incorrect assumptions about the Muslim revolution.� ( source )

Norway: Muslims question focus on Breivik's sanity Via AP : Muslim leaders in Norway say they are concerned that the anti-Islamic ideology of Anders Behring Breivik, the far-right fanatic now on trial for killing 77 people, is being overshadowed by questions about his mental state. The self-described anti-Muslim militant shocked Norway on July 22 with a bombing and shooting rampage targeting the government headquarters and the Labor Party's annual youth camp. Since he has admitted to the attacks, the key issue for the trial is to determine whether Breivik is sane enough to be held criminally responsible. "I'm not a psychiatrist, but what is important is what he has done. That should be the focus, not how crazy he is," said Mehtab Afsar, head of the Islamic Council in Norway, an umbrella organization of Muslim groups in the country. ( source )

It claims its investigations revealed readership groups to websites Gates of Vienna, Jihad Watch, The Brussels Journal, Islam Watch, Atlas Shrugged, Tundra Tabloid, Vladtepesblog and The Green Arrow showed a clear pattern. When presented with the results, Andreas Malm, journalist and author of the book �The Hate against Muslims�, told the paper, �The typical profile of conspiracy theorists are elderly, lonely men, who become obsessed with a particular question, and who may be attracted to anti-Islamic conspiracy theories.� �There is a preponderance of older men, often unemployed, who may feel ostracized from society, and seeking for an explanation and a scapegoat,� he declare...
