Pro-Israeli demonstration in Oslo: Nearly 1000 demostrators rallied outside the Parliament Buildings (Storting) in down-town Oslo Sunday, as part of a pro-Israeli demonstration in the streets in the centre of the capital. In a speech to the demonstrators, the leader of the right wing Progress Party, Carl I.Hagen, said that he could not understand why Israel had not received more support from the Norwegian public opinion. "I hope Norwegian media will stop the one-sided criticism of Israel," Hagen said. A smaller number of counter demonstrators called for Israel to stop terrorism and said that Israel had blood on its hands. (NRK/Nettavisen)
