Pigs fly, Norway apologizes to Jews

It's been a while since I last broke out the flying pig, but I think this one rates. After 70 years, Norway has apologized for its role in sending Jews to death camps during the Holocaust.
Norwegian Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg on Friday apologized for Norway's deportations of Jews during the Second World War

"Without relieving the Nazis of their responsibility, it is time for us to acknowledge that Norwegian policemen and other Norwegians took part in the arrest and deportation of Jews," Stoltenberg said.

"Today, I feel it is fitting for me to express our deepest apologies that this could happen on Norwegian soil," the prime minister added, standing on the exact spot where 532 Jews boarded the cargo ship Donau to be taken to the concentration camps.

After Nazi troops invaded Norway on April 9, 1940, it was ruled by a collaborationist government headed by Vidkun Quisling, whose name has since been synonymous with "traitor."

About 772 Jews were deported from Nazi-occupied Norway during the war. Only 34 of them survived.

"The murders were unquestionably carried out by the Nazis," Stoltenberg said, "but it was Norwegians who carried out the arrests, it was Norwegians who drove the trucks ... and it happened in Norway."

"No one, no individual, no minority, should have to live in fear in this country."
Let's see that last sentence put into practice.

It sounds like a bunch of taqqiya to me! They are allowing the very same thing to happen now in Norway, using the mozlems as their tools of hate and repression. May only be a virtual pig flying, a mirage...

Well, this is a surprise.

Thank you for acknowledging this.

Much of the hate against Jews in Europe is not Islam backed. There are of course Muslims who are making anti Jewish noises, but that is because they are angry with Israel, there are also Muslim who have adopted typical nazi or white power memes. But this is not rooted in Islam. They are simply bad Muslims. Period.

There is no such thing as 'Muslim anti-semitism' that Carl the Kapo promotes here

There is no such thing as Muslim anti-semitism? What do you call it when religious leaders call for the murder of Jews? http://palwatch.org/main.aspx?fi=157&doc_id=6098: "Last week, the principal Palestinian Authority religious leader, the Mufti Muhammad Hussein, presented the killing of Jews by Muslims as a religious Islamic goal." Statements of a religious leader represents the religious beliefs of his religion. Seems pretty clear to me.
