    Iraq-born Islamist cleric in Norway terror trial

    OSLO, Norway (AP) — Norwegian prosecutor Geir Evanger says an Iraqi-born cleric faces up to 20 years in prison for allegedly making death threats against politicians and encouraging suicide bombings.

    The terror trial against 55-year-old Mullah Krekar, who came to Norway as a refugee in 1991, opens in Oslo District Court Wednesday.

    After settling in Norway, Krekar founded the Kurdish Ansar al-Islam during visits to Iraq.

    Ansar al-Islam is listed as a terrorist organization by the United States and suspected of organizing suicide bombings against coalition forces in Iraq.

    Norway ordered Krekar deported in 2005 after declaring him a national security threat, but postponed the move because of worries he could face execution or torture in Iraq.

      Why would Norway care if this Islamopsycho faces execution or torture in Iraq? He has just taken his hate from Iraq to Norway. Now they have to deal with it. Send him back to Iraq and Norway's problems with him are over.

      Love it how refugees fleeing terror from their birth country, find sanctuary and freedom, yet bring the same terror they fled into their adopted country.

        That's the crap they tell the bleeding hearts. They make these stories up because they can't be verified, All they have to do is use the torture word, cry crocodile tears and the West will give them anything they want. We have to wake up...there are huge numbers of these mental defectives swarming immigration offices all over the planet.

        Radical Muslims are accomplished chameleons, they know how to assume the mask of "innocent immigrant" and fool us, making bombs in their condos and basements, planning murder and mayhem.

      Why is it Muslims flee the horror in Islamic countries, only to bring the same horror to the rest of the world????

      Seriously....What is wrong with these people?
      • CZZ 3 mths ago
        It's nothing wrong with them, but what is wrong with us?
      • Tasia 3 mths ago
        The problem is , to much sand, to much sun, not enough sex, and no alcohol.
      • Obama Bin Lying 3 mths ago
        CZZ, you said "what is wrong with us". I have never flown a plane face first into a building killing 3000 peopl. I have never murdered anyone for drawing a cartoon, or beheaded a person because he wrote a book. I think Free speech is for everyone. Not Just Muslims, and people who apologize for them.

        I have to ask...what is wrong with you?

      This vile man has lived off Norway for 21 years despite deportation requests from other nations. 21 years during which he has fomented terrorism; 21 years during which Norway encouraged Muslims to immigrate and bring their Mullahs with them. Norway will be so sorry!

      Take him ten miles offshore and kick him off the boat. If he makes it ashore then he gets a free airline ticket to whatever Islamic country that will take him.

      but postponed the move because of worries he could face execution or torture in Iraq. And this would be a bad thing, why?
    • John V  •  Manila, Philippines  •  3 mths ago

      another evil muslim...go figure
    • l8trgtr  •  3 mths ago
      Let him face execution or torture. Let him face the consequences of his actions, statements, and behavior. If the allegations are true, he needs to take responsibility for them... it's only fair.

      Hang the dirty wog, then chuck him in a black hole and drop a 3000lb rotting carcass of a pig on top of him, then say breath deep you garbage of the earth, breath deep this is the aroma of your virgins how did you expect them to smell wearing a black head to toe burka in 120 degree heat for 14 hours a day. You will find the smell of the pig much more appealing. Breath breath. allah crackbar allah crackbar

      Further proof why the West get abused by these wackos. Let them in and they bite the hand that feeds them. They should have immediately sent him and anyone that worshipped with him off to Iraq.

      Norway is too soft on the Muslim miscreant. Death by lethal injection is the best way to deal with parasites like him.
    • Jeff  •  3 mths ago
      The Norwegians kicked out the Jews who have never bombed them, let in the Muslims instead, and now look what they got.
      They would have been better off with the Jews. Maybe it is tie to kick out the Muslims.
      Where ever they live there is violence, killing, bombing, and intimidation by a group who claims that Allah and the Koran preach peace.

      Just keep letting the enemy immigrate to your fine countries and your children will be forced to convert under Sharia law. Liberalism is so great!

      living in a western country with all their amenities and the right to religion respected? Paradise for these sort of "people"!! Muslim fanatics (a he or a she) all have to do is cry persecution for their belief and the western world comes running to their rescue and these "people" are laughing and anyone saying anything against them are bigots/racists/so forth and then gets punished for that. Not to mention the human rights groups are on their side as well!!!
      Poor non-muslims who are just too naive and gullible!!
