"Critics blast Norwegian aid to 'Koran schools' in Pakistan," from [1] Aftenposten (thanks to Fjordman):

Norway's Foreign Ministry has been sending financial aid to controversial religious schools in Pakistan. Researchers and local Pakistani experts want it to stop, as does a conservative politician.

Government Minister Erik Solheim said the aid was aimed at promoting dialogue and religious tolerance.

Critics aren't at all sure that's what will happen.

As much as NOK 6 million (more than USD 1 million) has gone to 118 so-called "Koran schools" in northwest Pakistan. Some local experts, however, fear Norway risks supporting fundamentalist groups because it makes no demands on the schools' curriculum.

Karin Ask, a researcher at the Christian Michelsen Institute, told newspaper Dagsavisen that Norway could wind up even supporting jihadists, those encouraging holy war.
