But the move has sent shockwaves through Norway’s already fragile coalition government. The right-wing Progress Party, which takes a hardline stance on immigration, has opposed the repatriation of the woman but appears to have been overruled.

“The government negotiated with a terrorist,“ Progress Party lawmaker Roy Steffensen said. “The terrorist won.” …

That would be cruel, even though all cultures are equal. You see the logic, I'm sure.

It is the lack of sunlight for much of the year and a weak sun, relatively, even in the summer. It addles the brain.

The terrorists won when you let the first Muslim “immigrant” become a Norwegian citizen.

Insanity in Norway.

My wife's father was off-the-boat Norwegian. We spend a couple of weeks there with her family in 2018. I was surprised how conservative they were. They loved Trump.

As a Pakistani it is impossible for her to be ‘repatriated’ to Norway.

Seems like Vidkun Quisling’s strain is still alive and well in Norway.

I have to laugh everytime I hear that name. I remember a LoonyTunes cartoon with a Turkey, Bugs Bunny, and Elmer Fudd as a Pilgrim trying to catch the turkey for dinner...

Bugs stuffs the bird in a box or a barrel, then rats him out to Fudd, and the turkey says “Quisling!”...

And THAT was literally the first time I’d EVER heard that name. Only many years later did I learn who that bastard was.
