Norwegian Kafir of LGF sends me some interesting background on the Algerian axeman who attacked the pilots on a Norwegian plane. He writes:
To those of you wondering why the Jihadist could bring an axe inside the plane: All major Norwegian cities, like Oslo, have standard international security equipment and screening. This happened between two minor towns in the far north. All the smaller airports are supposed to have this equipment within the next year or so, but they still don’t have it. Norway is a naive little country that isn’t used to this kind of stuff. It will be a steep learning curve……..
The funny twist to this is: Two passengers on the plane rescued everybody by overpowering the man with the axe, and pulling him out of the cockpit. The injured pilots managed to stop the fall only 100 feet above the ground. It was literally seconds from disaster. The funny part: One of the two persons who beat the Jihadist, Odd Eriksen, is a Socialist politician, who until a couple of years ago served as a Member of Parliament for the Labor party. Who would have thought: A Socialist turns out to be a mean fighting machine!
Euro Socialist politician kicks ass of Jihadist axe-man!

“We can be happy that it went as well as it did,” Vangen said. The plane went into a spin during the attack and the wounded pilots only regained control over the aircraft 30 meters above the ground.

Two of the passengers managed to drag the man out of the cockpit and force him down on the floor.
The media here are careful not to mention the word “terrorism,” and claim that the Arab man was “mentally unbalanced.” What they are quiet about is the fact that he served as an imam for the local congregation:

However, according to this article from Norway’s largest newspaper, the man was not yet an imam, but was trying to become one. He is described as a “very religious Muslim” that campaigned to open a mosque in the local municipality.
