Much has been written about the rape epidemic in Oslo and the connection between Muslims and rape. Aftenposten, a Norwegian daily which has an English website, publishes articles on the subject every so often. Yesterday's article Women uneasy at night in Oslo brings some facts from the Oslo police:
20 percent of the assailants reported have a Middle Eastern background
19 percent have an African background
35 percent have Norwegian background.
In the past few weeks I have been researching this subject, focusing on rapes and sexual crimes in Norway. I intend to put out several articles discussing this issue, but first I'd like to present the questions which have been bothering me:
1. Is there a correlation between immigrants and rape statistics?
2. Is there a correlation between Muslims and rape statistics?
3. Recently there have been reports saying that Oslo has six times more rapes than New York. Is this true? What does it really mean?
4. There have also been reports of a rape epidemic in the past few years. Is this true? What does it really mean?
5. Aftenposten regularly interviews people at the Oslo rape clinic who say that the number of patients have doubled in the last ten years. Is this true? What does it really mean?
I have found partial answers to some of these questions and I will try to find answers to the rest as well. This article might be updated as I advance in my findings and encounter more questions. This article will also serve as a basis for all materials I collect on the subject.
