Importing Islam Means Importing Violence
by Fjordman
In February 2024, Norway’s public broadcaster NRK reported that rape centers all over Norway record more rape victims seeking aid. In the city of Oslo, the number has increased by 70 per cent in ten years.[1] Many of these rape cases are said to be very serious.
What does NRK suggest is the reason for this massive increase in rapes? Porn. The channel published an article about rapes in which immigration was not mentioned as a possible explanation. This despite a proven link between immigration and rape that exists in neighboring Sweden as well as other countries.
This is simply not credible.[2] It is misleading propaganda.
Norwegians are forced to pay billions of kroner annually to the country’s largest media company, which is actively trying to obfuscate why an increasing number of Norwegians are exposed to violent abuse in their own country.
The mass immigration that established mass media, including the state broadcaster, has supported for decades imports violent crime. This is a demonstrable fact.
NRK also reports in 2024 that so-called honor crimes, forced marriages and threats of honor killings have become part of everyday life all over Norway, not just in major cities.[3]
Forced marriages and honor killings were extremely rare phenomena in Scandinavia fifty years ago, if they existed at all. Muslims from Syria, Iraq, Pakistan, and Somalia top the statistics for these crimes. The current problem is therefore overwhelmingly due to immigration.
In multiple Western countries, serious violence continues spreading as society becomes more ethnically diverse and multicultural. Women and men of all ages may be affected by violent crime in the streets, at schools, in public transport, or elsewhere.
My first significant, public text about Islam was published in Norwegian under my real name — Peder Jensen — in the national newspaper VG in August of 2003. At that time I had just moved to Oslo after studying and working for a couple of years in the Middle East.[4]
The driving force behind my career as a writer was a desire to warn against the great danger I saw from importing Islam to Europe.
