Sweden And Norway Hold Suspects After Terror Raids -- Police in Sweden and Norway detained six people on Thursday on suspicion of offences related to terrorism after carrying out coordinated raids. The move comes just over a week after Norway's intelligence agency said that the threat of terror attacks by Islamic radicals was rising in part because of the country's military presence in Afghanistan. Norway has about 500 troops in Afghanistan as part of the NATO mission.

A Trailer For "Dogs" -- Here’s something to look forward to: the Modoggie Musical. I reported last October that Lars Vilks, the Swedish artist who created the blasphemous Modoggies, announced his intention to produce a musical called “Dogs”, based on the Prophet as a roundabout dog (among other things). |

Testing the Limits -- One of the things that I have noticed about the Modoggie Crisis is that Lars Vilks — despite the rudimentary nature of his scrawled drawings and the manifest unseriousness of the artist’s statements — did not undertake his blasphemous task lightly or at random. There is a method in his madness. |

Sweden Apologizes Again… Or Not -- While people were being beaten and arrested in Brussels, the Modoggie crisis continued unabated in Sweden and the Islamic world. The latest twist is yet another claim by Muslims that a Swedish official has apologized for Lars Vilks’ blasphemy against Mohammed. In this case it’s the Swedish ambassador to Saudi Arabia, apologizing to the OIC in Jeddah. |

The Death of Sweden -- I still get questions as to why I, being Norwegian, write more about Sweden than I do about my own country. First of all: I do write about Norway sometimes. And second of all: If you look at capital cities alone, Oslo could quite possibly be the worst city in Scandinavia. However, in virtually all other respects, Sweden is worse. And yes, it is every bit as bad as I say it is. |

Sweden Struggles to Integrate Muslim Immigrants -- Sweden has welcomed immigrants with open arms for decades but now it is grappling with how to integrate them into society, especially in the southern town of Malmoe amid a massive influx of refugees. Once a thriving industrial town with full employment, Malmoe has seen many of its plants shut down since the 1990s. That, combined with a never-ending stream of foreigners arriving, has led to rising juvenile delinquency and rampant unemployment. Of the town's 280,000 inhabitants, a third are foreigners and 60,000 are Muslims. |
