I do not question the charity and helpfulness of these nations. Neither do I find any issues with their foreign policies. My point was directed more to how the society (not the government) deals with the immigrants [1].

Can you summarize how you interpret that article?

For example, do you think that is common practice in Norway? I read elsewhere that the policy was quickly abandoned once it was made public. Do you think the 50 students who demonstrated in protest show that this was an unexpected practice? Might the comment of "school captain Helena Skagen" .. "what they did was wrong because you can't split the students according to their culture" might indicate that this was an unusual event, and hence newsworthy?
