Norway: Police expects more religious, ethnic, national conflicts
Two points:
1. Why would Norway take in people who agree with the Taliban?
2. Since when do Neo-Nazis justify themselves with Christianity?
-----------------
Conflicts based on religion, ethnicity and nationality will increase in the next decade, the police believes. This appears in the police annual report for 2008, which was recently published by the Police Directorate.
"Those who come to Norway, try to integrate here, but they also have their own culture. They can bring with them conflicts from the homeland to Norway. This is something we must be attentive to," says the the head for the project in the Police Directorate, Knut Kværner, to Vårt Land.
Integration researcher Inger Lise Lien believes some criminals justify crime with religion, and that enmity can be brought to Norway.
"If, for example, we both take in people who agree with the Taliban and people who've escaped from the Taliban, this can cause conflicts between the groups," says Lien, who is a researcher for NKVTS (Norwegian Centre for Violence and Traumatic Stress Studies)
"If Muslim boys will explain crime with Islam or Neo-Nazi boys justify themselves with Christianity, we will get conflicts of a completely different type than we have now," she says.
