His topics include Islam anddemocracy ,multiculturalism , theEuropean Union andWestern culture . He is an outspoken proponent ofBat Yeor 'sEurabia theory and wrote an essay titled "The Eurabia Code" [ [http://jihadwatch.org/dhimmiwatch/archives/013667.php The Eurabia Code] , September-October 2006; see also "the “Jewish threat” in the 1930s was entirely fictional, whereas the “Islamic threat” now is very real." in Fjordman, " [http://www.brusselsjournal.com/node/938 Swedish Welfare State Collapses as Immigrants Wage War] ", Brussels Journal, 2006-03-28] backing it.His oft-repeated reference to a Muslim rape wave in Sweden [ [http://fjordman.blogspot.com/2005/02/muslim-rape-epidemic-in-sweden-and.html Muslim Rape Epidemic in Sweden and Norway] , 2005-02-20] was in fact a spike in reported rapes from 2004-2005 caused by a widening of the legal definition of rape.

Race
Fjordman believes the passivity of Western governments before the influx of non-white immigrants is a "White Masochism", and states that
white people should be given the right to have a "room" of their own. [ [http://gatesofvienna.blogspot.com/2007/10/age-of-white-masochism.html Age of White Masochism] ] [ [http://globalpolitician.com/articles.asp?ID=3293&print=true Global Politician - The White Race: Going Gently Into That Good Night ] ]He thinks race is relevant to the shaping of society.
I used to believe until quite recently that skin color was irrelevant. I was brought up that way. I still don’t think ethnicity or race does or should mean everything. In fact, I would say it is patently uncivilized to claim that it means everything. But I can no longer say with a straight face that it means absolutely nothing, and if it means more than nothing, it needs to be taken into account. Whether we like this or not is immaterial.

He also believes it to be of value to preserve a native majority, most likely because the native culture would perish otherwise. The viewpoint that culture and race are that closely linked is very similar to his earlier point that race determines the values of a society.
The translator used for the Swedish Expo material is a poster calling himself (?) Truumax, who seems to think that the SD is a “racist” party. I asked Truumax whether it should be considered “racism” if native Swedes resist being turned into a minority in their own country, which they will become in a few decades if current the level of immigration continues.

Bosnian Genocide
Fjordman believes the
Bosnian genocide was overblown by what he calls "the establishement", and thinks the historical events preceding theBalkan wars should be taken in account, to understand what happened.

Fjordman was widely regarded by blogs critical of Islam as an expert in his field.
Robert Spencer of "Jihad Watch " calls him the "great European essayist" [ [http://www.jihadwatch.org/dhimmiwatch/archives/013355.php Fjordman: The Eurabia Code, Part I] ,Jihad Watch , September 30, 2006] and "the superb European writer" [ [http://www.jihadwatch.org/dhimmiwatch/archives/012204.php/ Beheading Nations - The Islamization of Europe's Cities] ,Jihad Watch , July 12, 2006] .
