When freedom becomes a crime, the world must react

In Iran, you can be imprisoned or killed for showing your hair or loving the wrong person. Yet Iran is given international legitimacy. It is undignified. Norway should react against the regime and actively support Iranian freedom fighters.

War game off Taiwan went so badly for the US that it was cancelled

The Heritage Foundation created a war theatre about Taiwan based on artificial intelligence in which the US came off so badly that the Pentagon demanded parts of it be blacked out, even though it was based on open sources.
Such a war theatre is of course relevant to the discussion about Greenland. It is the US that will fight the war against China. A defeated USA will not be able to defend either Europe or Greenland.

USA lashes out at WEF and globalisation

Sovereignty is your borders. You have the right to have borders. You should not outsource the production of medicines. You shouldn’t outsource the production of semiconductors. You shouldn’t outsource your entire industrial foundation and let it hollow out from under you. You should not be dependent. Because that is fundamental to your sovereignty. And if you’re going to be dependent on anyone, it damn well better be on your best allies.

What would Trump pay for Queen Maud Land?

The idea of Denmark ceding a (former) colony to the US obviously causes offence. But it has happened before in history. And the US has bought new territory on a number of occasions.

London: Arrest warrant issued for those who tackled black flasher on the Tube

A busy afternoon on the London Underground ended with a semi-naked black man being apprehended by fellow passengers. But now it’s the passengers who stopped him who could face punishment!

The word «queer» should be abolished as the ideologically charged word it is

The word queer is essentially a rape of language and an attack on the rights of ordinary people who happen to fall in love with someone of the same sex. The Danish Rainbow Council has excluded the letters T and Q in favour of LGB: Lesbian, Gay and Bisexual.

Outdoor swimming has become a risky sport in Germany

Increasing numbers of sexual assaults and other incidents of violence are being reported at outdoor swimming pools in Germany. The clash of civilisations has become a reality, and young girls are paying a big part of the price.

Sigrid Bratlie poked at something dangerous: Wuhan is still radioactive for Norwegian media

Sigrid Bratlie is the molecular biologist who dared to break the imposed silence about the origin of the COVID-19 virus after coming to doubt that the virus originated from the animal market in Wuhan. In Norway, that was the only narrative allowed. But solid, recognised researchers thought otherwise. Bratlie trusted her own judgement.
