I've been seeing Norwegian zionist shit on my for you page for 3 days straight, just entirely racism and anti-arab conspiracism without a single centrist or left leaning take.
Definitely a major public opinion campaign push on this.

The temporary arming of the police is effective immediately.
Or
The ~~temporary~~ arming of the police is effective immediately.
?
Is handing out guns to all the cops something Norway does routinely or is this new?
I was just about to add a comment providing some more context on that point. The police were temporarily armed for 237 days straight in 2022/2023 in response to the Pride shooting in Oslo, and the police were also temporarily armed from November 25th, 2014 to February 3rd, 2016, I believe these are the longest continuous periods when the police have been armed, and there are also shorter periods of temporary arming.
The Norwegian Police Federation claims that from the end of 2014 to March of 2023, the police had been armed for 31 out of 100 months.
It happens occasionally, and if I remember correctly there are some locations where they're always armed.
The last time I can clearly remember the police going armed for an extended time was after the Utøya massacre and terrorist attack on the AP offices, otherwise cops don't have guns other than one locked in the trunks of cruisers.
