Norwegian university refuses to sanction professor who praised October 7 massacre

Two weeks after Professor Bassam Hussein’s terror glorification at NTNU, it is clear that what many see as praise for the October 7 massacre in Israel will have no consequences for his position at the University of Trondheim. Rector Tor Grande says no labour law measures are planned. The statement has been reported to the police, and it is now up to the courts to decide whether it violates Norwegian law.
