• Document.no: Pogroms in Oslo
    Document.no is more than a blog, it is a community. Whatsmore it is intelligent, well-mannered and subsequently growing, which makes a lot of people somewhat worried. Document.no now offers a lengthy post on Norwegian author Eirik Eiglad’s book “The anti-jewish riots in Oslo”. Unauthorized translation from Pogroms in Oslo: Researchers and the police can say: […]
  • Malmö: Ever since I came here people have been shouting ‘fucking Jew’ at me
    Anyone concerned for the re-emergence of anti-Semitism in Scandinavia who is not reading Sweden, Israel and the Jews is robbing themselves blind. If you follow Sweden, this is the place to go. Ilya Meyer has a larger archive. On the other hand Norwegian newspapers, with exception being made for Aftenposten, are not particularly interested in [...] […]
  • ‘Jews themselves wrote lists of whom were to die in concentration camps’
    The University of Oslo wants to fire a history professor – appearently for having violated its health, environment and safety (HES) code. Protesters say this has nothing to do with HES and everything to do with the Univeristy curtailing the freedom of expression of its staff. One of the protestors is Professor of Law Jan [...] […]
  • Norwegian funnymen fearful of insulting Muhammed
    Norwegian comedian Thomas Seltzer. Picture from NRK P3. In 2006 funnyman Otto Jespersen demonstrated his courageous wit by torching the Bible. When asked why he did not burn the Koran, he replied: “We considered that too, but could not get hold of a copy. What is more I am 52 years old now and reckon [...] […]
  • Støre and Syria, Bishops’ Boycott
    FM Jonas Gahr Støre met with Syria’s FM Muallem on Monday8th. Nothing much in the media about that, not at all. Syria hardly registers at all. In the clip above you see a program from Syrian television. Does not this look like the kind of society Norwegians ought to be worried over? Remember [...] […]
  • VG on Bishops’ Boycott
    Verdens Gang (VG) - Norway's largest daily Verdens Gang (VG) is Norway’s largest daily. In today’s editorial the newspaper claims that the Bishops Boycott is, pretty much, a walk down nonsense street. Unauthorized translation: We believe that the Bishops ought to bury the though of a boycott of trade as soon as possible. They receive the [...] […]
  • No Press Accreditation for PR-woman Yngvild Mortensen
    Qassam rockets: from Ynet news Dagbladet reports on how freelancing journalist Yngvild Mortensen has her knickers in a twist as Israel refuses to grant her press accreditation. The reason Ms.Mortensen is not getting one is because she is a freelancer, and not in steady employ. When one looks back upon the long series of biased [...] […]
  • Is Dagbladet confusing Gaza with the Westbank?
    Dagbladet attributes this picture to Gaza, by Reuters, Elilana Aponte and Scanpix. The picture above is from an article in Dabladet titled “New peace talks between Israelis and Palestinians“. The first half hour the picture did not have any explaining subtext, which easily might have lead readers to believe the picture shows an Israeli kicking [...] […]
  • FM Støre, Dr Mads, Syversen on the Bishops’ Boycott
    Norwegian Bishops have come up with the idea that boycotting Israel just might be a fine idea. Foreign Minister Jonas Ghar Støre is opposed to a boycott and says so in today’s Verdens Gang – Norway’s largest daily. Unauthorized translation: – It is good that the Church speaks out for the opprssed, but the Church’s main [...] […]
  • Editor slams Bishops’ Boycott
    DagenMagazinet For Vebjørn Selbekk “freedom of expression” is more than just words, as is “courage”. After publishing an article on the cartoon-war in 2006, he became embroiled in it himself, receiving only luke-warm support from the Norwegian intelligensia and political establishment as he stood up for his editorial right to publish news-stories on relevant […]

Someone in Iceland writes something about Jews

Iceland is well known for its hot springs

Iceland is popularly though to be populated by the descendants of Norwegians who refused to accept the teachings of Jesus Christ, son of God, opting out for the traditional ways and the ancient gods of Odin, Tyra and Tyr, etc. Actually though, the history of the island [...]

Hero of Shamir's ´Defamation´:

Many people hold no quarrel with Jews as a people, but reserve the right to be extraordinarily upset over Israel politics. People who truly have no issue with the Jews are as angry with Israel’s neighbors as they are with Israel itself.

In terms of psychological economy therefore, you are better of being an [...]

A Palestine-quiz for Jonas Gahr Støre

Mr.Støre – Picture from Norway MFA

During the debate on immigration in 2009 Dagbladet fronted Thomas Hylland Eriksen’s “immigrant quiz”, and some said that if you did not score more than six (out of ten) right, then your knowledge about matters of immigration was too low for you to speak your mind about immigration.

Among those [...]

Code cracked - spies listening everywhere

Loose lips sink ships

Until quite recently the more ludicrous aspects of the Norwegian debate on the Middle East were a closely kept national secret, shared only by the select few who mastered Norsk, a code originally developed by the Bavarian Illuminati. Now it appears that the code has been broken and that code-cracking foreigners [...]

Breakfast at Hildegunn’s

Wherever you go in life, most of the time it’s the same old, same old. Just look at the Norwegian media coverage of Israel, for instance.

We found this clip at Hildegunn’s, who tells us it’s an Israeli favorite. Innovative and sweet, eh? Pop over to Hildegunn’s for a look and a read (if you know [...]

SMEAR CAMPAIGN AGAINST SCANDOS! ISRAELIS POKE FUN!

From Ilya Meyer (in the context of a serious post on accusations of Israeli organ-smuggling) by way of the Tundra Tabloids: It turns out that Norwegian ME expert Hilde Henriksen Waage was right when she claimed that the far-right-wing in Israel is conducting a smear campaign against Norway. Actually, they are smearing Sweden too, even sinking [...]

Solidarity group berates Israel for use of map- then follows same practice itself

Sure, politics is about winning hearts and minds, but some minds you’re just seriously better of without. See this post on the same issue.

The propaganda machine

Hilde Henriksen Waage is not the only Norwegian academic who believes in the power of the pro-Israel propaganda machine. In today’s Adresseavisa, a daily focusing on the Trondheim area, Professor Morten Levin writes:

The attacks against Rita Ottervik and Håkon Gullvåg are not unique. Such attacks are part of the daily amount of propaganda issued by pro-Israel [...]

Drowning rats, the hearts of men and BOLD goals

Greg Kolodziejzyk does it again!

A friend of mine needs is interested in the Middle East and I’m trying to convince him to read Benny Morris, but he won’t. Benny Morris does not make for easy reading unless you are a trained historian and my friend has neither the aptitude nor the time, so instead [...]
