powerbase.info →Peder Nøstvold Jensen (born 11 June 1975, Ålesund, Norway) is a blogger who became prominent in the counterjihad movement under the pseudonym "Fjordman " (he has also used the pseudonym "Norwegian kafir"). He announced in August 2011 he was abandoning the pseudonym, after his writings featured in the manifesto of the Utoya killer Anders Breivik .[[1]]( He wrote 'The Fjordman Report' column for the far-right blog Gates of Vienna . Jensen has a masters degree in culture and technology from the University of Oslo, and has studied Arabic at the University of Bergen") and the American University in Cairo") . In his master's dissertation he wrote about censorship and blogging in Iran.[[1]]( He worked in the city of Hebron in the civilian observer mission, the Temporary International Presence in Hebron (TIPH), from January 2002 until August 2003. Gates of Vienna contributor Jihadwatch.com contributor Brussels Journal contributor Sunnmørsposten") contributor Document.no") Andrew Bostom has described Jensen as "my colleague, the perspicacious Norwegian essayist", and denounced the "hysterical, morally cretinous press and blogosphere" for compelling him to surrender his anonymity after the Oslo attacks.[[2]]( Anders Breivik referred to Jensen as his biggest inspiration, cited 40 of his articles 111 times in his extremist manifesto and exchanged many emails with him between 2009 and 2010.[[1]]( Following the Oslo attacks when Jensen's identity was revealed he was quick to distance himself from Breivik and claim that he was 'horrified' by the attacks. But no such contrition is evident in the writings as he live blogged the event for the far-right Gates of Vienna website. Indeed, as the attacks began, Jensen was blaming the victims, describing the Workers' Youth League") (AUF), many of whose members were killed by Anders Breivik , as 'an anti-Israeli, pro-Palestinian crowd of young Socialists'.[[3]]( [[4]]( He also used the occasion to denounce Norway's democratically elected government: Please keep in mind that the left-wing government of Jens Stoltenberg") that was just bombed is the most dhimmi appeasing of all Western governments, to the extent that this is humanly possible...The most suicidal and cowardly government in a country with no colonial history was just attacked. How do you explain that as a response to Western ‘aggression’?[[3]]( Jensen, like many Western pundits, had assumed without proof the attacker was a Muslim. In response to a commenter who found it curious that people on television who "looked like Arabs" should be called "Norwegian". Jensen responded: In Oslo they do. Arabs, Kurds, Pakistanis, Somalis, you name it. Anything and everything is fine as long as they rape the natives and destroy the country, which they do.[[3]]( Jensen had previously received financial support from MEF's Legal Project fund to assist with the Breivik court case.

Peder Are Nøstvold Jensen (born 11 June 1975) is a Norwegian far-right counter-jihad blogger who writes under the pseudonym Fjordman. Jensen wrote anonymously as Fjordman starting in 2005, until he disclosed his identity in 2011. He has been active in the counter-jihad movement, which argues that multiculturalism, particularly Muslim mass immigration, poses an existential threat to Western civilization. He has promoted this belief in a self-published book titled Defeating Eurabia, and stated that "Islam, and all those who practice it, must be totally and physically removed from the entire Western world".
Anders Behring Breivik, a neo-Nazi, exploited Fjordman's belief in the Eurabia conspiracy theory, a supposed secret Muslim plan to take over Europe, and quoted him extensively – 111 times – in his manifesto. Fjordman condemned Breivik following his attacks. In 2013, Fjordman was given financial support by the free speech organization Fritt Ord to write a book about the Breivik case.
