The Associated Press reports that Swedish police have identified a real Norwegian man (as opposed to the immigrants who the media identifies as European, but they’re really not) with no criminal background who has trained in Yemen and who they consider an “operational” terrorist;
After converting to Islam in 2008, he quickly became radicalized and traveled to Yemen to receive terror training, one of the officials said. The man spent “some months” in Yemen and is still believed to be there, he said.
The official said the man has no criminal record, which would also make him an ideal recruit for al-Qaida.
“Not even a parking ticket,” he said. “He’s completely clean and he can travel anywhere.”
He was also off the radar of Yemeni police who didn’t realize that he had been in their country and training with al Qaeda.
Of course, the Associated Press has to end their article with a mention of Anders Behring Breivik, the far-right terrorist who bombed and shot innocent Norwegians last year, like when articles about Muslims in the US arrested for terrorist activities have to mention Timothy McVeigh.

I’ve not seen anything saying he has been arrested. What I’d read was that this unnamed person was still in Yemen…
And I’ll just bet that he won’t be sent to attack any Norwegian targets, either.
A few years ago, a TV series “Rubicon”, created a ‘white muslim’ character. It made for an interesting story. He was the perfect mole.
Reality is much stranger than fiction.
