النرويج: اعتذار عضو الحزب التقدمي اليميني عن الإساءة للمسلمين

- خبر من مصادر إنجليزية.

تعرض الحزب التقدمي اليميني لحملة انتقادات واسعة في أعقاب الكشف عن قيام "تورند رويد" - عضو الحزب - بإرسال وثائق من 11 صفحة إلى 100 عضو بالحزب عام 2004، يسيء فيها للإسلام ويصف المسلمين فيها بأنهم يحتاجون علاجًا نفسيًا وإعادة تأهيل.

وتأتي هذا الحادثة لتضاف لقيام عضو الحزب "كارل هاجن" بالإشارة في أحد تصريحاته إلى أن كل الإرهابيين مسلمون؛ مما جعل الحزب قيد الرقابة الصارمة.

وقد أعرب "تورند" عن أسفه وندمه على إرسال تلك الوثائق المسيئة، مشيرًا إلى أنه لم يعد يتبنى ذلك الموقف، وأنه كان مُقصِّرًا في بحثه مما أسفر عن تلك النتائج. المصدر: شبكة الألوكة.

Progress Party official shows more Islam prejudice

A central Far-Right politician has apologised after being accused of Islamophobia for sending 100 colleagues a document urging all Muslims receive psychiatric treatment.

The month of Ramadan came into full effect last week, and followers of Islam must be truly amazed by what Norway has been saying about them.

In a week when Progress Party has been put under scrutiny due to Carl I. Hagen’s “most terrorists are Muslims” comments, FrP are dealing with more criticism today.

It has been revealed that Trond Røed, respected leader of the Buskerud region, was forced to apologise after admitting to send out an eleven-page document to almost 100 party members in 2004.

Contained in it are suggestions that people who follow Islam must be “deprogrammed” using psychiatric help , as well as arguments for imposing a veto on further preaching of their faith.

VG alleges the document consists of several highly controversial statements about Islam and Muslims, including one that alleges repeating certain Qur’an verses could lead to indoctrination leading to tendencies that are more violent.

“One should therefore question whether hour-long Qur’an citationsover many years cancause serious psychological damage, with a consequent risk of committing criminaland destructive acts. Another question is whether it is possible to establish suitablepsychiatric treatment institutions that can carry out the deprogramming,” one paragraph read.

Mr Røed also believed this document could be a useful contribution towards the Progress Party’s immigration policy views, alleging Islam has strong connections with violence.

Muslim Anne Sofie Roald, a Norwegian-born professor and Islam researcher at the Christian Michelsen Institute, says his statements indicate “a lack of history.”

“Even though Islamhas more of a political background, Christianity has been used politically and is, amongst other things, used for such purposes in the U.S. today,” she says, “not to mention in a politically violent manner under the Crusades.”

rond Røed has since apologised for his actions, telling VG “I don’t stand for what I said then any longer, regret sending it, and that I didn’t conduct better research at the time.”T

He has refused to comment on the matter further.
