So many strange things have come out in the press. Now it’s the accounts, how much the boys have cost Norway. The reason for this is of course that they need new angels. This is just stupid. How much has mullah Krekar cost Norway? And why isn’t that public knowledge?
He is not even a Norwegian citizen. There are people in Norway who’ve cost the state millions of dollars a year, for decade after decade maybe. VG calculated that they would cost about 1 660 000 NOK a year in a Norwegian prison. Okay, so what? That’s the price of all of the other thousands of prisoners then? So what? Do we release every prisoner because it’s too expensive? This is really low. How much do foreign prisoners in Norwegian prisons cost really? I would think we talk billions. How many millions have prisoners and criminals from Congo coasted Norway? How much do illegal foreign citizens cost a year?
Why the continuous lies that the Foreign Ministry pays for food and medication for them? They get 100 dollars each a month, while the real cost is 1000 dollars each. The accuracy of this is probably not harder than a telephone call to the Foreign Ministry to check. So it’s the families and kind people who’ve helped them with food and medication. I don’t know if the Foreign Ministry would go in and help if they didn’t have families to prevent them from starving to death. One may have to believe they would.
One also has to wonder why these hateful publications keep coming. There have to be 30-40 murders in Norway since the boys were arrested, some of them very brutal murders. There is none of these accounts then.
One should realize that these boys will not be the last ones to be held as hostages for money, either in Africa or anywhere else. That’s something to think about for everyone.
