| Norway Government Collapses Over ISIS Bride Repatriation |
| 2020-01-22 |
| [LegalInsurrection] Norway’s ruling coalition collapsed on Monday over the repatriation of a suspected female Islamic State fighter from Syria. The right-wing Norwegian Progress Party ended a seven-year alliance with Prime Minister Erna Solberg’s Conservative Party after she agreed to take in a suspected female jihadi and her two children on “humanitarian” grounds. The unnamed 29-year-old woman of Pakistani origin had reportedly left Norway to join the ISIS Caliphate in 2013. The children were born after she departed to join the terrorist group in Syria, reports say. “We could welcome the children, but we do not compromise with people who have voluntarily joined terrorist organizations and who are working to tear down all the values Norway is built on,” Siv Jensen, leader of the Progress Party, told reporters. Since the Norwegian constitution does not allow for an early election, Prime Minister Solberg will continue to lead a minority government until the next year’s general election. With the right-wing Progress Party mobilizing openly against the government, the country could plunge into a political crisis.

| #3 We do not compromise with people who have voluntarily joined terrorist organizations and who are working to tear down all the values Norway is built on. The MSM will report this as more far-right nationalist extremism. Veritable Nazis, they are. |
