Anti-semitism and the anti-Israel lobby in Norway

Anti-Semitism is Norwegian problem, not ‘muslim-problem’
There is a lot of focus on muslim anti-Semitism right now, and rightly so. As NRK’s Tormod Strand has disclosed, muslim children have brought anti-Semitism back into the Norwegian schools. Yet Kristin Halvorsen of the Socialist Left has a point when she says anti-Semitism is not a “muslim-problem” but a “Norwegian problem”. Anti-Semitism in Norway goes [...] […]

Book: The Anti-Jewish Riots in Oslo

A new book on the riots of January 2009 is out. “The anti-jewish riots in Oslo” is written by Eirik Eiglad. Mr.Eiglad runs the journal Communalism, which defines its purpose as providing “a forum for the exposition of Communalism as a viable political alternative”.

I have just started dipping into the book and it looks promising. Mr.Eiglad was present at all the major demonstrations occurring within the selected timespan, and has both a shrewd eye and a reasonably clear head. Interesting to see that he is a “leftie” who admits to having participated in street fights with the AFA. In Norway, AFA used to operate out of Blitz. This is yet another nail in the coffin of FM Støre’s theory of all accusations of anti-Semitism in Norway being the product of a smear campaign run by right-wingers in Israel.

The book is available on Amazon as well as in the Oslo-bookstore Tronsmo. You can also order the book directly from Communalism.
