Norway: Islamist Krekar Ordered Out, But Will Stay
Mullah Krekar (left) has been falsely pretending to be an asylum seeker in Norway for fourteen years. Originally from Kurdish Iraq, he claimed that he was "unsafe" in his homeland. Despite this, he made numerous trips to Iraq while officially an asylum seeker, showing his capacity for dishonesty.
On one of those trips, Krekar founded Ansar al-Islam fi Kurdistan or "Supporters of Islam in Kurdistan" in December 2001. In Kurdish Iraq, Ansar al-Islam has burned down beauty salons and a school for girls, and murdered women in the streets for refusing to wear the burqa. It has also launched several suicide attacks, including one against a US Department of Defense office in September 2003, which killed three people.
In March, Norwegian Minister of Labor and Social Inclusion, Bjarne Hakon Hanssen said that Krekar could be on a plane to Iraq "within two months", as long as a guarantee could come from Iraq that the Islamofascist would be "safe" upon his arrival.
An order had been made in February 2003 by Cabinet Minister Erna Solberg, stating he should be expelled from Norway.
Krekar is not a gracious guest of Norway. On August 31 2005, he made a veiled threat against the country when appearing on Al Jazeera TV. He said that if moved to Iraq, that would be " an offence that shouldn't be made without punishment." He continued: "I have faith in Allah. I defend my rights in their court just like Western people defend their rights. I am patient like they are patient. But if my patience runs out, I will react like Orientals do." He would not be pressed to reveal what reactions would be made."
In March, the Minister of Labor and Social Inclusion told Norwegian newspaer Dagbladet that there was no reason to wait for the Court of Appeals to deal with Krekar's complaints. When the new Iraqi government was sworn in, Hanssen said, there was only a need for a guarantee from the Iraqi government to not submit the Mullah, who openly supports bin Laden, to the death penalty upon his arrival.
As well as praising bin Laden, Krekar has also praised Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, who was notorious for his videos of people having their heads slowly sliced off. He said in an interview with a Kurdish-language newspaper, Awene: "I am proud of what he has done and that he has become a martyr."
In September 2005, an Oslo court ruled that Krekar could be deported, as he presented a risk to Norway's national security. Today, state Associated Press and Aftenposten, Krekar's case came before the Borgarting Court of Appeals in Oslo. It was ruled that Krekar must pay court costs of 290,000 kronor ($45,000), and that Krekar could be deported, upholding the earlier Oslo ruling.
Unfortunately, the court acknowledged the problems related to the practicalities of expelling the supporter of terror. It was said: "It is clear that the decision will not be implemented at the current time in that the conditions in Iraq are deemed such that he, considering Norway's obligations under international law, can not be returned there."

A Norwegian court rules that he's a risk to Norway's national security, and yet Norway will not deport him back to Iraq, since he will be facing a death sentence there. Norway is actually saying that its people's safety is less important to them than forcing other countries to follow their moral directives.
If he's such a risk, he should be put in jail, at the least. Or deported to a third country, though that would be quite dangerous as well.
