Israel is withdrawing their diplomats from Norway. I guess that means random Norwegian civilians are slightly safer today than they were yesterday.

Good riddance and get fucked.

Jesus Christ! I know Israel was bad but I keep hearing more and more fucked up stuff they did

One of the agents involved has since testified that they knew they were killing the wrong man.

Didnt read the whole article as my norwegian is not that good but damn. This makes it even worse and I am not even really surprised they still killed him knowing he was not the man they were looking for. They heard him speaking french whoch their target did not know but they still went ahead with it becuase even if he was not a big fish terrorist he was still a terrorist? What kind of sick fucking mentality is that?

Holy fuck that link. I guess Israel learned that Europeans (generally) won't bend over backwards for their Apartheid (stares at USS Liberty).
