I read books and I know things. Scientist, but nerding in fly fishing, XC skiing, cycling, history and strategy in particular.
Anybody know if this is true?

My sister is married to an Englishman, and he only know the Norwegian swear words…😎

Russia accuses Norway of using arms supplies for 🇺🇦 for its own enrichment. Look who’s talking - supporting 🇺🇦 is a simple choice when 🇷🇺 abducts 20000 children and bombs hospitals and private neighborhoods. 61 months under Nazi rule in WW2 taught us a lesson about what is moral right and solidarity.

Canadian wine imports from U.S. has dried up. Action have consequences…🤷‍♂️

On Trump concessions to 🇷🇺: As marked with red in the map 🇳🇴 has a long border with 🇷🇺 both on land and sea. 🇳🇴 know how unreliable 🇷🇺 are, ie on coexistence at Svalbard. Occupied by the Nazis for 5 yrs+ during WWII, but still got all our territory back. We expect and hope the same will happen for 🇺🇦.

1030: The later King of 🇳🇴 Harald Hardråde asked Prince Jaroslav I of Kyiv🇺🇦 to marry his daughter Jelisaveta, but the Prince denied due to Harald’s lack of wealth. In 1044 Harald came back to claim her, and got her due to having obtained so much wealth no one had ever seen in the possession of a man.

Where the Nordic immigrants settled down in the US. Actually the founder of the Greath Northern Railway from St. Paul to Seattle, James J. Hill, put ads in Scandinavian papers to recruit railway builders. The railway was established in 1889.

I’ve posted before that Trump will not get a Nobel Peace Prize until hell freezes over. He was going to fix the 🇷🇺 invasion of 🇺🇦 in matter of days. Look at the graph below; the escalation of 🇷🇺 drone war after 47 took office. And now he’s stalling long promised Patriots. 🇳🇴 borders 🇷🇺. You get the math?

So what’s it going to be, 🇺🇸, best in fossile fuels or in innovations in clean energy tech? 🇨🇳 is in the lead in the race in clean energy tech, and I’m afraid your «grand parents» in the Senate don’t necessarily see that as a problem…🤷‍♂️

It seems to me that the 🇺🇸 has paranoia of socialism. I’m a concervative, but in my lifetime I guess there has been a socialdemocratic government ~60% of the time in 🇳🇴. What’s the greatest difference? The means, not the goals. So reflect on that when you see the share of billionaires per Million

Putin in St. Petersburg yesterday: «Wherever a Russian soldier sets foot, that is ours.» Picture below from Finnmark, Norway at end of WWII. Soviet soldiers on a captured Nazi coastel battery. 🇳🇴 better prepare!

The Nobel Peace prize is awarded by a Norwegian commitee. One thing for sure: Donald Trump will never get it. 100% of members of 🇳🇴 Parliament (Stortinget) supports 🇺🇦 & most Europeans mean that what he has done to 🇺🇦 is the opposite of peace. Appeasement to 🇷🇺 has made the world a more dangerous place.

Looks like the French President Macron’s trip to Greenland 🇬🇱 really got Trump pissed off…🤣

In 1993, William Nygaard, an editor of a publisher, was shot outside his home in Oslo. The assassination attempt was linked to Salman Rushdie. He survived by a miracle. Suspect: 🇮🇷 diplomat in 🇳🇴 who had held a central position in the 🇮🇷 Revolutionary Guard and considered the leader of Hezbollah in 🇳🇴.

The Viking TV series boosted interest of Norse history; the series was fictional, and happenings & people were knit together to make it just that - fiction. Here’s our main source about this part of our 🇳🇴 history: Snorre Sturlason (1178–1241) wrote the Sagas of the 🇳🇴 Kings based on oral traditions.

Italy best in Winter Sports? 😁David vs Goliath in Oslo last night, Italy being 4x WC winners.
What happened to the uncompromising defensive play that I grew up with in the 80s and 90s, and that I loved?

Crown Prince Haakon of Norway meets Zelensky in Kiev today. Tells Zelensky: «We are impressed by your leadership. You (the Ukrainian people) have been able to hold on despite invasion and aggression.»

Do the age of your politicans say something about your democracy? Upper red line shows average age in the US Senate, lower red line average age in House of Representatives and blue line average age in the Norwegian parliament («Stortinget»).

Independence day in Norway to day. Childrens parade. Flags. National Customs. The national song. No weapons.

Edinburgh & Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. I understand perfectly well why my ancestors started to «visit» this place&people ~1200 yrs ago - it’s my 2nd time around and I like it very much. I’m very sorry for those Vikings that didn’t know how to behave properly; Young people and too much to drink, same problem today😉

US economy under reconstruction by the Trump /MAGA reign. During my studies at University we learned that 🇺🇸 economists were very influenced by Scottish philosopher & economist Adam Smith (1723-1790). He’s also under reconstruction - picture taken today in Edinburgh.

Looks like we’re not coming to visit this summer… Europeans travelling to 🇺🇸 has cratered under Trump. But of course, this effect was taken into careful consideration before JD Vance told us we are bad allies and Trump decided to annex Greenland and throw 🇺🇦 under the bus?
