A convert to Islam ran amok in Kongsberg with a bow and arrow, killing five and wounding four.
“… In 2014, a couple of officers for the PST (Norwegian Police Security Service), Norway’s equivalent of the NSA or MI5, asked to meet me at the Notodden police station, purportedly because they wanted to learn more about Islam. It turned out they wanted to learn more about me.
Why, they asked, was I so critical of Islam? Which other Muslim critics did I know? What far-right websites did I read? When I’d had enough of their questions, I asked my own: “Have you read the Koran?” They hadn’t. I told them they should, if they wanted to understand Islamic terrorists. “We know,” one of them replied, “that radical Muslims have misinterpreted the Koran.“ I countered that the Koran’s message is clear, and terrorists are doing exactly what their holy book tells them to.”
