Might As Well Give Asylum To Nazis
VG, TV2 and Dagbladet report today that 7 members of the Taliban have been granted asylum in Norway during the last 12 months. One of the men admits to having worked as a torturer for the Taliban, but he was granted asylum in Norway as he comes from a part of Afghanistan that is not considered safe. Ironically the area will be a little bit safer now that the Taliban torturer has left Afghanistan to live on welfare benefits in Norway.
While there are not many Nazis around anymore, I assume Norway will be equally welcoming to war criminals from other parts of the world. In my May 17 blog entry, I commented on a former Taliban health minister that has been living on welfare in Norway since 2001. During this time, he has established his own terrorist network in between beating up his young daughters.
While the Nazis are mainly gone, the Taliban are unfortunately going strong in different parts of the world. Check out this March 2009 video from CNN:

Norwegian Lawyers Should Rather Sue Their Own Government
VG reports that six Norwegian lawyers have filed a suit in Norway asking that a number of Israeli politicians and military personnel are arrested if they ever come to Norway. The reasoning is that the Jewish individuals named in the law suit ordered the recent attacks on the Arab terrorist organization Hamas.
The six Norwegian lawyers should be able to keep themselves busy if they intend to sue any foreign national that potentially has committed crimes against the vague concept of "international law". In order to relieve themselves of this burden, the lawyers have decided to single out a limited number of Jewish politicians, though their decision obviously has nothing to do with anti-semitism. It is simply a pure coincidence that they have chosen to focus only on Jewish individuals.
With the logic they are using, perhaps the lawyers should also sue their own government for complicity in the killing of civilians in Afghanistan. Norway has had military forces in Afghanistan for quite some time, and Norwegians are certainly indirectly or directly responsible for some of the civilian deaths that have occurred during the last few years.
