Why Did Not Kristin Halvorsen Leave The Demonstration?
It is possible that the Norwegian Finance Minister Halvorsen participated in a demonstration on January 8, and not January 10 as stated in my original blog entry. The actual date does not matter, however, as the outcome and content of the different anti-Israeli demonstrations were fairly identical. In fact, I previously posted a video of the January 8 demonstrations.
The blog "Tundra Tabloids" raises some good points regarding this issue, though it also acknowledges that Ms. Halvorsen did not shout any anti-Semitic slogans:
"What is one to think of a politician who understands well enough that, shouting "death to the Jews" is wrong, and doesn't want to be depicted as doing such a thing, but more than willing to participate in a demonstration with those who were doing just that? Kristin Halvorsen is of course justified in wanting to correct the facts to the J'lem Post story, but will she ever apologize for participation in an event where people were in fact shouting "death to the Jews"? I doubt it".

Kristin Halvorsen can't be held responsible for some individuals actions the day this demonstration happened. This event was in no way ment to be racist, and there was no reason not to participate in this demonstration against Israel's inhuman, totaly out of proportion, military attack.
Every person is himself responsible for his/her actions, including an Israeli soldier.

I am a norwegian student, and i have to say i am shocked to read the artickles by mr. janhoo. They do not give a picture of the norwegian society that is in touch will real life.
I therefore ask you mister janhoo, where in norway do you see what you claim is an explotion in anti-semitism?
this is a pure lie, and i hope everybody reading this blog do understand that this is not true.
