On Al-Quds day in Oslo, pro-Palestinian activist and convert to Islam Trond Ali Linstad quoted Iranian cleric Ayatollah Khomeini by saying: “We must all rise up and destroy Israel”. Linstad also tried to have the same quote published in an advertisement in Dagsavisen, whose chief editor is a self-professed pro-Palestinian, but the ad was rejected as being “too political”. As Klassekampen reports, Palestinakomiteen also distance itself from Linstad’s quote.
