It is not really a long way from the “Nordic Resistance Movement” to the Islamic State (ISIS). Oleg Neganov was clearly in search of a what he could consider to be a great cause, and gravitated toward groups that drew a sharp Us vs. Them distinction and were inclined toward violence. Meanwhile, are Norwegian authorities looking into where and how Oleg Neganov was converted to Islam, and why he embraced a version of Islam that those same authorities, and their counterparts all over the West, dismiss as a twisted and hijacked version of the real thing? Why not?

According to a detailed report by the Norwegian TV and NRK radio station, the 31-year-old Russian-born regretted his actions in court and applied in vain for his extradition to Norway. He is still being held in a prison in Hewlęr.
