The municipality of Løten, in the southeastern county of Hedmark, has failed to win financial support from the Directorate of Immigration (UDI), TV 2 reports.
Løten is home to many refugees from African nations and the local initiative to start a camel farm was viewed as a way to have a positive effect on the lives of new residents.
Many of the refugees have lived as nomads and for them the camels are domesticated animals and a source of milk, meat, hide and wool. But the UDI has refused to earmark funds for the creative project, and the Løten camel farm is now in danger of staying on the drawing board.
Time for another riot. Maybe we can burn an embassy or two and take some hostages.
Stupid camel jockeys.
And rightly so. No one's sister would be safe if feral camels bred with moose in the wild... and gjetost would never be the same again.
Please tell me this is a joke. Please?
And targets of numerous Bedouin affections.
