There should be consequences for Nations like Norway and Spain.
Meaningful consequences that do not backfire are difficult to construct but even a wall of shame where Nations whose actions support terror and subjugation of women, ethnic groups etc are highlighted along with the facts as well as simple, clear documentaries circulated throughout the world would help.
These Nations should be shamed and they should be made to feel responsible for the consequences of their support of terrorists. The people in Ireland, Spain & Norway have been sold a bill of goods and in many cases are being taken over by immigrant groups. I hope their people will finally cry “ENOUGH”

“was Norway, whose TV viewers awarded only five points to Israel”

Which meant that Norway placed Israel 6th out of 25, not really a strong indicator of anti-semitism.

You have to understand - THEY ARE SCANDANAVIANS like our MINNESOTANS, SWEDES AND DANES. Among the Euroweenies they are only b eclipsed by the French.

"Why is a land of eminently decent, civilized people a hub of anti-Semitism?"

Maybe they aren't decent, civilized people, maybe? Why do college students support Hamas, they can use youth as an excuse.

What makes Norway feel so often like the West’s Ground Zero for anti-Semitism? It’s a question I’ve pondered for years without ever coming up with an entirely satisfactory answer. Surely it’s relevant that Norway, for most of its history, was arguably Europe’s least cosmopolitan and least ethnically and religiously diverse country. Because of its forbiddingly mountainous terrain, most of its people were exceedingly provincial, identifying strongly with the remote valleys in which they lived, not a few of which had their own highly distinct dialects, and outside of which many of them never set foot once in their entire lives. To them, people living two valleys over might as well have been foreigners; imagine how alien Jews must have seemed to them!

I am very disappointed in Frontpage for spreading this slander about rural people. The Bible Belt, of which I am a product, is both rural and provincial, yet my experience has always been that it is highly philo-Semitic because of the influence of the Bible. People who know "the Jews" only from the Bible should be super-philo-Semitic.

I don't dispute what the author says about anti-Semitism in Norway, but I expect better from Frontpage than just more liberal anti-rural slander.

Norway is still the land of the Quisling.

Had been pondering this question myself. Thanks for posting. I really wanted to visit Norway but its far down my list now.

America’s becoming just as bad, in many locations.

I wish the author had done some research into the history of Norway in the late 1930s and early 1940s before labeling the people of that nation eminently decent and civilized.
