Støre’s coup: Norway secretly joins French nuclear strategy

The Norwegian Prime Minister is staging a coup in classic Obama style: when public opinion stands in the way, you simply go behind its back. Prime Minister Støre has now placed Norway under the French nuclear umbrella. Allowing French Rafale jets armed with nuclear weapons to land on Norwegian airfields will fundamentally change our relationship with Russia.

Satire – Norway’s Constitution Day: Teen reported to police for “provoking” migrant gang with his own jaw

After a migrant youth gang brutally assaulted a Norwegian teenager during Constitution Day celebrations in Bergen, politicians and media focused less on the violence itself than on criticism of those who shared footage of the attack. The satire imagines Norway’s political elite responding with absurd moral panic, bureaucratic jargon and performative multiculturalism.

Qur’anic preservation: A critical examination

Muslims hold that the Qur’an is an eternal, uncreated text perfectly preserved word-for-word since its revelation to Muhammad and finalization under Caliph Uthman. Christians believe the Bible was written by inspired human authors, permitting minor manuscript variations that leave core doctrines intact. This contrast—Muslims viewing the Qur’an as Christians view Jesus—faces challenges from early incomplete manuscripts, multiple canonical readings, and textual variants, raising important questions in interfaith dialogue.

Document.no hits 10 million Facebook views – and fastest growth

10 million Facebook views in a single month show that steadily more people are turning to Document – and away from a media reality in which they no longer recognise themselves. Document’s growth is accelerating, and you can help us become even bigger!

UN adopts resolution: States legally responsible for climate change

The UN General Assembly has confirmed a ruling by the UN court that the world’s countries are legally obligated to “climate protection.” This opens the door for climate lawsuits around the world. But only the West will take this seriously – not least Norway. And they know this well in China, which voted for a resolution they will ignore themselves. This is how the climate circus rolls on.

The distant has been brought near — without becoming present

With technology that makes everything immediately available, nothing is distant anymore. Along with that, closeness and presence also disappear. The encounter with something that truly has an aura therefore feels extraordinary. It withdraws, it cannot be reproduced, it demands that one be present oneself. I myself had such an experience with a Christ figure.

The ultimate betrayal: 5-star prison food on Islamic holidays while elderly get miserable institutional meals

The moral test of a government is how it treats its elderly, said Norwegian-descended Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey. Norway has failed this test completely. Worse, the government enthusiastically organizes lavish Islamic holiday celebrations for Muslim prisoners, complete with gourmet food, gift bags, and parties most elderly can only dream of. This is the ultimate betrayal.

Lithuania: Black woman risks prison for hate speech after ‘mocking white people’

In Lithuania, a Black woman is charged with inciting “hatred against white people” after mocking “white women’s tears” during a ticket dispute at a ski resort. The case has drawn attention because it is rare for the accused — not the victim — to be non-white. It raises questions about whether European hate speech laws, meant to be race-neutral, are applied asymmetrically in practice.

Dramatic decline in Europeans’ share of world population

The proportion of people of European descent is declining and will continue to decline. Around 1900, Europeans and the European diaspora made up 30–36 percent of the world’s population. By 2050, that share is projected to fall to just 7 percent.

Just five years for corrupt former state secretary — Friendly journalist walks free. What awaits the Epstein friends?

Former Norsk Industri leader Stein Lier-Hansen received five years in prison for gross corruption and economic disloyalty. Norwegian tabloid VG and its bar journalist emerged from the case unscathed. What awaits the Epstein friends, one wonders? Former Labour PM Thorbjørn Jagland and UN power couple Terje Rød-Larsen and Mona Juul are currently charged with gross corruption.
