SOS Rasisme was a Norwegian organisation, whose stated goal was to "fight racism and nazism." It was founded in 1985, as the Norwegian sister organisation of the French SOS Racisme. It went bankrupt in 2013 after being convicted of defrauding the government and the Norwegian Children and Youth Council by reporting grossly exaggerated membership figures in order to obtain public funding. The police subsequently opened an investigation of the organisation and indicted ten of its key officials for fraud, embezzlement and money laundering.〔(Siktet for underslag av over 15 millioner kroner ), NRK〕〔(Siktelser for hvitvasking, grovt bedrageri av millioner og økonomisk utroskap mot ti personer ), Dagbladet〕 It claimed to be Europe's largest anti-racist membership organisation, with more than 40,000 members, but the claims were found to be false by Haugaland district court.〔(SOS Rasisme dømt til å betale over 10 millioner kroner ), Dagbladet 10 November 2011〕 The last president before its bankruptcy was Trond Thorbjørnsen and the last executive director was Kjell Gunnar Larsen. SOS Rasisme claimed to have more than 270 local chapters all over Norway. SOS Rasisme faced strong criticism from the media in Norway and from all mainstream political parties over several years due to its dominance by the stalinist party Serve the People – The Communist League.〔(Tjen Folkets «Smørbukk» ), Klassekampen〕〔(- Tjen Folket er limet i organisasjonen ), Dagbladet〕〔(«Joe» sendte millioner ut av SOS Rasisme ), Dagbladet〕〔(Dekknavn: «Joe» ), Dagbladet〕 SOS Rasisme has described its critics, including the Norwegian Children and Youth Council, as "Nazis."〔Skumsvoll, Nils (1 March 2010). "– Høyreekstreme står bak dette»." ''Østkantavisa''〕 ==Criticism of SOS Rasisme== On 16 January 2006, the Norwegian newspaper ''Dagens Næringsliv'' claimed that SOS Rasisme was dominated and influenced by people on the far left in Norwegian politics, and questioned whether the large number of members was actually correct or a falsification. SOS Rasisme has denied all claims that their membership figures were false. On 9 September 2009, Norwegian radio station P4 ran a story claiming that five of the leaders of SOS Rasisme are also high-ranking members of a revolutionary Communist organisation called Tjen Folket ("Serve the People"). P4 quoted Khalid Salimi, the founder of SOS Rasisme, as saying he was ousted from the organisation by the communists, and that SOS Rasisme was at that time run almost exclusively by white Norwegian communists. Salimi estimated that there were actually more "darkeys" in the Progress Party, a Norwegian political party with an immigration skeptic agenda, than in SOS Rasisme. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「SOS Rasisme」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
