The Two-Front War

Jonas Gahr Støre is having major problems making the world hang together coherently. He is supposed to balance between condemning the war against Iran while at the same time not becoming a defender of the religious dictatorship. He completely fails to explain how the removal of a murderous regime constitutes an attack on “international law”. When set against the regime’s murders, the word becomes meaningless.

NATO is failing, exactly as Trump predicted

The war in Iran lays bare where loyalty and risk tolerance lie. In Davos, Trump said the USA had «never gotten anything out of NATO»; soon after came the test: Starmer confined US use of British bases to «defensive strikes». Meanwhile, NATO chief Mark Rutte conceded that Europe cannot defend itself without the USA – yet that NATO will not engage in Iran. The contradiction poses a stark question: Will the USA stand up when Europe needs it?

Norwegian aid millions to an Islamist terror regime

In 2024, Norway provided 19 million kroner in aid to the Islamic Republic of Iran. The vast majority of this is channeled through the Norwegian Refugee Council (Flyktninghjelpen), which is led by Jan Egeland (from the Labour Party, Ap).

Europe after 28/2: Between a rock and a hard place

Operation Epic Fury struck not only Tehran and its murderous mullahs. Across Europe, governments are currently in crisis meetings, and speechwriters weigh every word on gold scales. How we act in the coming days may decide whether the European nations are plunged into chaos of terrorist acts and civil war—or take another step toward total submission to Islam.

Iran gets 9/11 in return, and Europe is put to the test

Trump’s intervention in Iran may mark a new phase in the relationship between Islam and the West. Yet Islam’s ideological struggle continues within the West itself, where Europe stands evasive, weak, and conflict-averse. Europe has alienated the United States and Israel, and allowed its political culture to be shaped by its Muslim populations. European leaders warn against escalation in the Middle East, even as our cities glitter with Ramadan decorations and the calls to prayer ring out over rooftops and church spires.

Tempi Train Disaster, 3 Years Later: Maria Karystianou Breaks the Silence on Corruption in Greece

Three years after the Tempi train disaster that claimed 57 lives, Maria Karystianou—the mother who became a national symbol for justice—speaks in an exclusive 25-minute interview.

– A nobel cause

With his eight-minute speech on Iran, Trump has taken a decisive step towards re-establishing the United States as the indispensable nation that fights for freedom for all peoples. Trump takes up again the tradition established with the victory over Nazism and Japan and crowned when the Wall fell in 1989. But by then Europe had become soft and had lost the will to sacrifice.

220 million to queer siblings in Africa and Asia

You may perhaps have thought that Terje Rød-Larsen and his New York-based IPI reigned at the top among organisations that have received Norwegian aid kroner? Or Børge Brende’s WEF? Both fall into the shadow of FRI – The Association for Gender and Sexuality Diversity. For since 2006 they have received 220 million. Last year alone, 28 new million came from Norad. A substantial increase from the year before, to compensate for the loss of queer kroner from USAID.

Missionaries in Norway: Christians have begun street evangelisation

Many have been irritated that it is only Islamic and Islamist activists to be seen on the streets, moreover such as are so brazen that they write “Jesus is Muslim” on their tents. These work diligently to convert searching and perhaps vulnerable Norwegian youths to Islam. Now Christians are taking up the competition for attention. They too engage in street evangelisation. Not only Norge for Jesus, but also Foreningen Tro og Håp.

Here they meet in secret

While the Epstein revelations dominated all attention, three men met in a conference room at Oslo’s Grand Hotel. A retired senior Norwegian Foreign Ministry official with close ties to Terje Rød-Larsen, a consultant funded through the Norwegian aid budget, and a key advisor to the Palestinian president. The natural question is: What did they discuss? No one is willing to answer.
