A ten-year-old judgment raises new questions in the case of Shada, the Palestinian girl who died at a child welfare institution in 2019. The parents have been convicted of subjecting all three children to violence over a period of more than three years. The judgment is based on statements and interrogations, but no physical evidence was presented.

This aligns with Norway’s longstanding engagement policy, of which the Oslo Accords were a part. From 2010 onward, Norwegian aid to Iran increased. Meanwhile, the investigation into the William Nygaard case faded into obscurity, while the Islamic Republic was able to free up resources for other purposes, thanks to Norwegian assistance.

The guidance comes as the government introduces a new definition of “anti-Muslim hostility,” which critics say risks creating a de facto blasphemy law and restricting debate about Islam and sharia law in Britain.

But the money trail actually stretches back 20 years further – potentially pushing the grand total up by another half a billion kroner.
Continue reading »We note that the Prime Minister, in the media, “repeats his call for the Royal Household to show openness about Epstein connections”. The media speculate as to why he has received no response from the Palace. Could the explanation simply be that the Royal Household strictly observes a loyalty to the Norwegian authorities that prevents it from revealing who it was that misled the Crown Princess?

Viewers are not shown the criteria, evidence, or legal thresholds involved. Instead, a moral hierarchy emerges: those who accept the premise appear responsible, while those who question it risk being cast as suspect.

We made a video disagreeing. The response was enormous, with most people siding with us. Several media outlets then contacted me to ask what I thought about the reactions – and, most remarkably, what responsibility I bear for the reactions of others.
Continue reading »Norwegian politicians talk endlessly about “security”, yet security is among the many goods Norwegians have lost over the past 30–40 years. Economic freedom and a functioning labour market are others; the moral cohesion of society is another. Not everything was better before, but mass immigration, globalism, corruption and political experimentation have radically degraded the quality of Norwegian society. Young people should be furious about what irresponsible politicians have taken from them.
Continue reading »Nuclear weapons on Norwegian soil would clearly contribute to deterrence and reduce the risk of a conventional attack on Norway. But they would simultaneously increase the risk of a pre-emptive strike in a heightened confrontation between the great powers. The development of tactical nuclear weapons has also lowered the threshold for their use. If the war in Ukraine escalates further, or if a crisis emerges in the Barents Sea or the Baltic region, the Kremlin’s calculations would change radically.
Continue reading »The left, this self-proclaimed bastion of justice and compassion, reveals itself through a deeply troubling double standard that undermines the very foundation of universal ethics. Their moral reflex appears not principled but tribalistic: loyalty to their own group overrides any consistent norm, and the result is an ethic corrupted to the core – a perverted version of humanism that serves power games rather than human dignity.
