There comes a point, and I think we’ve reached it, where Western boasts about “freedom” and “democracy” become self-discrediting. I am no longer willing to say that the West is more “free” than China. I would certainly say that Russia has a greater claim to being a “free country” than anywhere in Western Europe.
There is no “free world.”
Norwegian authorities have arrested a high-profile U.S. white supremacist scheduled to speak at an international far-right conference in Oslo and say they will seek his deportation.
Spokesman Martin Bernsen from Norway’s domestic security agency PST told Norwegian public broadcaster NRK that a U.S. citizen was arrested Saturday “on the basis of the Immigration Act section 106” including a suspicion that “he may play an obvious role in radicalization.”
PST didn’t give the person’s name, but he was identified by Norwegian media as Greg Johnson who was a scheduled speaker in the conference by the Scandza Forum, a far-right network known for its anti-Semitic and racist views.
