The Norwegian Police Security Service (PST) is raising the level of terrorist threat in Norway. It considers the mass shooting in Oslo an extreme Islamist terrorist act.
The attacker, who has been arrested, is a 42-year-old Norwegian citizen with an Iranian background.
“The PST has known about the perpetrator back since 2015 and was concerned that he was then radicalized and part of an extremely Islamist contact network in Norway,” acting PST chief Roger Berg said on Saturday afternoon.
The PST conducted interviews with the 42-year-old Zaniar Matapour in May.
“In these conversations, it was not considered that the perpetrator had an intention of committing violent acts, but the PST is aware that the perpetrator had challenges related to mental health.
The 42-year-old is charged with murder, attempted murder, and terrorist acts.

Right.
So just a month or so ago Norway passes a law (rightly) suppressing Koran-burning and other violence-triggering agitation (by SIAN, etc.), and now Islamists are going out *looking* for provocations?
(This is especially ironic, considering the incidence of homosexual rape of prisoners – Gaddafi and the U.S. ambassador in Libya, for example – in the Mideast.)
So is Norway now going to have to pass laws suppressing homosexuals and their very open lifestyle, to avoid fanatics being “provoked?”
Again, WHO opened Norway’s Gates of Troy?
