OSLO, Jan 8 (Reuters) - Oslo police detained at least 27 people on Thursday after pro-Israeli and pro-Palestinian demonstrators clashed in one of the worst such outbursts in the Norwegian capital since the 1980s.
Shop windows in the city centre were shattered and police repeatedly used teargas to break up groups of activists demonstrating over Israel's crackdown in the Gaza Strip.
The violence started when about 1,000 pro-Palestinian supporters showed up at a rally sponsored by Norway's largest opposition party in support of Israel. Television pictures showed they burned Israeli flags and threw projectiles at police clad in body armour who separated the two groups.
"This has nothing to do with the situation in Gaza," Johan Fredriksen, chief of staff of the Oslo police, told the website of the daily Aftenposten.
"These people came to the protest with knives, bats and Molotov cocktails," he said, speaking about the pro-Palestinian side.
"You have to go back to the early 1980s to find a similar situation in Norway," Fredriksen said, adding that police were still concerned about security across the city.
Clashes also took place near the Israeli embassy.
Tabloid VG on its website said that Oslo was the site of a "street fight" with groups of men throwing rocks and bottles at police. One police car was trashed and one officer injured.
Before the flare up, some 15,000 people walked through the city centre for a peaceful, torch-lit protest, police said.

U.S. Military Preparing for Domestic Disturbances
A new report from the U.S. Army War College discusses the use of American troops to quell civil unrest brought about by a worsening economic crisis.
The report from the War College’s Strategic Studies Institute warns that the U.S. military must prepare for a “violent, strategic dislocation inside the United States” that could be provoked by “unforeseen economic collapse” or “loss of functioning political and legal order.”
Entitled “Known Unknowns: Unconventional ‘Strategic Shocks’ in Defense Strategy Development,” the report was produced by Nathan Freier, a recently retired Army lieutenant colonel who is a professor at the college — the Army’s main training institute for prospective senior officers.
He writes: “To the extent events like this involve organized violence against local, state, and national authorities and exceed the capacity of the former two to restore public order and protect vulnerable populations, DoD [Department of Defense] would be required to fill the gap.”

Colin Powell - Major Crisis Coming Jan 21-22 2009?
Texasbail reminded me about this...I blew it off when Powell first mentioned this, but now I am thinking that there is something to this comment he made.
A lot is riding on the Congress reviewing Obama's electoral votes on Jan 8th 2009. There have been reports that some may object to Obama being awarded the electoral votes due to him not proving that he was a natural born citizen; thus making him ineligible.
The Supreme Court is hearing Phil Bergs case about Obama's birth certificate on Jan 9th 2009. The radical left wing would love to stir up race riots and you can safely bet that terror attacks will follow soon after.

Today's liberal progressives are the Nazi Party in the making. Does peaceful protest and religious tolerance ring a bell?
These thugs will be protected by their new radical president, Hussein Obama.
