Norway is introducing temporary border checks on its frontiers with other Western European nations after the domestic security agency raised the terror threat level, police said Saturday.
The checks will apply until October 22, according to a police statement.
It cited "a challenging threat picture" and the October 8 announcement by the security agency, PST, that it was increasing Norway’s threat level from "moderate" to "high," the second-highest level on a five-tier scale.
PST pointed to an increased threat to Jewish and Israeli targets in particular.

Norway raised its terror level on Tuesday after police in neighboring Denmark charged two men last week suspected of detonating hand grenades near Israel’s Copenhagen embassy, while police in Sweden are investigating a suspected shooting near the Israeli diplomatic mission in Stockholm.
Changes to security include Norwegian coppers, who are normally unarmed, now carrying guns nationwide.
Sweden in August last year raised its terrorist alert to the second-highest level after Koran burning
...One of the basic tenets of Islam is that once a Koran has been printed it is expected to last for all time, no matter how old, ratty, and smelly other, lesser holy books may become. Should it actually become necessary to put a Koran out of its misery there is a ritual that includes extensive charivari, featuring long drawn-wailing and head bonking, ritual wife beating, and the sacrifice of dozens of women's noses and pubic lips. When the actual disposal has been completed there is a prescribed period of celebratory gun sex with the expectation of a minimum of two hundred casualties. Should actual infidels dispose of a Koran, Islamic custom calls for three weeks of rioting and a minimum of three dozen dead, which is a holdover from the days of Moloch worship....

In Britannia, the head of Britannia’s domestic intelligence agency said Tuesday the country is facing a "staggering rise" in attempts at liquidation, sabotage, and other crimes by both Russia and Iran, as the two states recruit criminals to "do their dirty work."
Perhaps if y’all were to actually convict and imprison your criminals, instead of giving them a pat on the head and sending them home, you’d have less of an exploding rise in crimes, whaddaya think?
