What a tragedy! The norwegian socialists' wet dream is becoming a reality: a complete axing of the armed services! Same situation as in the '30ies...

Don’t worry - the USA will protect us - even as we mock them at every turn.

Amazing they learned nothing from WW2.

If the loss of spending power continues the Defense will be so weakened in 25 years time that only limited units such as the Coast Guard and the Russian border guard will be fully functional - an independent, national Defense will be history," Diesen wrote.
I imagine that Vlad is taking note.

We have Clinton, Pelsoi and Reid. They brought back Quisling.
Let's see if they'll swap.

What caused this “loss of spending power?” Is he talking about budget cuts, depreciation of the currency, .... what?

Darn, you beat me to the post by 20 hours.
Something else is going on here - it is not as simple as those who write that Norway is abandoning its military or depending upon the US. I haven’t had a chance to ask relatives in Norway. But if you read an article in today’s “Aftenposten”, the Defense Minister Anne-Grete Strøm-Erichsen is sending additional Norwegian troops to Afghanistan -
’ “It is completely necessary to increase the military presence in the area in order to create security,” Strøm-Erichsen said after the meeting with the parliament’s foreign committee on Tuesday morning. ‘
and arguing that the troops might even be deployed to hotter areas in the south!
