Danske Bank Pleads Guilty to Fraud on U.S. Banks in a Multi-Billion Dollar Scheme to Access the U.S. Financial System.
Largest Bank in Denmark Agrees to Forfeit $2 Billion.
Danske Bank A/S (Danske Bank), a global financial institution headquartered in Denmark, pleaded guilty today and agreed to forfeit $2 billion to resolve the United States’ investigation into Danske Bank’s fraud on U.S. banks.
According to court documents, Danske Bank defrauded U.S. banks regarding Danske Bank Estonia’s customers and anti-money laundering controls to facilitate access to the U.S. financial system for Danske Bank Estonia’s high-risk customers, who resided outside of Estonia – including in Russia. The Justice Department will credit nearly $850 million in payments that Danske Bank makes to resolve related parallel investigations by other domestic and foreign authorities. Continues further down.

Islands and Tribes. States and People.
The people of Norway are a subversive Tribe, called the Nor Tribe. The concept is often contrasted by anthropologists with other social and kinship groups, being hierarchically larger than a lineage or clan, but smaller than a chiefdom, nation, or state.
The Nuba people are made up of more than 50 ethnic groups living in an area of southern Sudan known as the Nuba Mountains. Although these groups come from various places and speak a multitude of languages, their common geography qualifies them as the Nuba People. According to some estimates, there are approximately 2.5 million Nuba, including those who have left the original region.
Norway, or Nor, is an island. With water on one side, and forests and mountains on the other. In between these two extremes, tribe people live and die.
However! The Norwegians, as they enjoy naming themselves (even called an airline after their Tribe) portray themselves as Europe’s most influential, rich, and forward looking State! A Tribe, that through ratifi-cation of a myriads of international tractates, has elevated it’s unim-portant image on the world stage. Like getting to manipulate for a seat in the UN’s Security Council. And purchasing 52, or was it 54, F-35 fighter bombers.
Tribes are vulnerable to attack from Nations. Historically tribes disappear after being swallowed up by an aggressive neighbor. It happened with the Indian tribes in America, and the tribes of the Amazon jungle. Both are as good as almost extinct.
Henrik Ibsen
The Norwegian play wright Henrik Ibsen was shunned all his life. That is why he lived at Sorrento, Italy for 27 years. And wrote about the Norwegian soul. “Norway,” he said, “ should look more into itself, than criticize others…”
Well said. The good Henrik had understood early in life that in reality, people of Norway were savage tribe people, and the country a joke.
Hawaii was once an independent island, populated by tribes people. It was swallowed up by an aspiring superstate. Voila!
Ten thousand years before the nor-Tribe of island Nor invented the wheel, the Chinese culture was riding in four-wheeled gilded carriages and used advanced tools.
I have been to an archeological excavation up in Shenyang, former Mukden, in North-East China and inspected a more than eight thousand year old habitat, and it was fascinating. What was most interesting is the inter-human dignity and rules woven together and created the basis for a socio-economic fabric of the highest standard.
The Nor-tribe on the Nor-Island in Scandinavia on the other hand do not have this advantage. Rather, they cheat and dupe and manipulate. Like when STATOIL went to Iran in 2000 and gave the son of President Hashemi Rafsanjani millions of dollars under the table. What we usually call bribe. And, naturally, the Nor-tribe was speedily kicked out. A few years later, they were kicked out of Peoples Republic of China as well. Quite an achievement.
And I ad, who do this savage people think they are?
THE MILITARIZATION OF SCANDINAVIA
Norway now being Targeted for Massive Retaliation.
New US installations to be constructed. Massive military build-up. Militari-zation of Scandinavia underway. Prime Minister Erna Solberg denies existence of thermonuclear bombs. Although B61-12’s is already in place. Ørland Main Air Base to be expanded.
We believe that the United States might not be able to control its internal emotions as a Nation (6.1.21) and therefore risk taking the wrong decisions in foreign politics. This dangerous polarization can have a catastrophic consequence for the people of the World. It happened i Vietnam, and it can happen again!"
NATO NUCLEAR BASES
By the Editor-in-Chief - Главный редактор - 主編
There are more than 500 nuclear bombs, widespread deployment to seven bases in six European countries. These deployments are:
Norway: Ørland Main Air Station
The Netherlands, Volkel Air Base
Belgium, Kleine Brogel Air Base
Germany, Buchel Air Base
Italy, Aviano Air Base; Ghedi Torre Air Base
Turkey, Incerlic Air Base
Four bases are in Caretaker Status. Six non-nuclear countries are assigned nuclear strike mission. Caretaker status means a non operating condition in which the installations material and facilities are in care and limited preservation status. Only a minimum of personnel is required to safeguard against fire, test and damage from the elements.

The Norwegian leadership lives in the delusion that a unilateral bond with the US will save the country. The permit for the use of thermonuclear bombs of type B61-12 from Norwegian soil, owned and operated by the Americans, will be a guarantee for Norway, the management believes. Yes, it is a guarantee, but for the collective downfall of the Norwegian people. Norway has around 5.3 million inhabitants in an area swelled in from Oslo to Rome. Only half of Norway's population is strong enough to take the first hours of the war. The rest of the population is elderly, sick, children, pregnant, in prisons and in miserable form.
Norway is a peacetime territory, but it is almost impossible to go to war. To that the country is too far, too cumbersome and too sparsely populated, and with a defense that is as good as defeated already. NATO started as a defense alliance but has become an attack alliance that has called in Russia and sees the country as its greatest enemy. Norway has hung on and gone from being a friendly neighbor to Russia, to becoming an offensive and provocative neighbor. This does not worry today's management in Norway. But it should, because Norway's ability to save its population lies in a good relationship with the neighbor in the east
Valery Grasimov, head of Russia's General Staff, said that Moscow would increase the capabilities of its ground-based strategic nuclear arms. "One of the main destructive factors complicating the international situation is how the US is acting as it attempts to retain its dominant role in the world," he said in comments released by the defense ministry. "It is for these purposes that Washington and its allies are taking comprehensive, concerted measures to contain Russia and discredit its role in international affairs." This is indeed sad news for Europe and the World. Have a good day!
It is claimed by the Solberg Government that the new F35 aircraft are necessary for Norway's defense capabilities. And I suppose B61-12 is also meant to save the country. Not a single F35 will cross the border with Russia and not a B61-12 will fall on Russian soilKnowledgeable Vidkun Quisling did the same. He lived in an ideological dream world without ground contact with the Norwegian people's realistic ability to survive in the mind. What we experience in Norway today is betrayal of the Norwegian population. And no one seems to notice what is happening, that the country is moving quickly and safely towards the cliff.

THE IRAN MEETING IN VIENNA
The Iran Vienna meeting is Munich revisited: Chamberlains “agreement” is the United States folly today!
By the Editor-in-chief
Once again, the world has witnessed the destruction of logic and the upheaval of vain arrogance without attachment to dignity. As the Western culture is now tumbling down the abyss of naivete, dark clouds are gathering over Mankind. Like a clown entering the world stage, the United States invited its vassals in Europe to “negotiate” an agreement with the Persian culture as we witness the last gasp of a dying, hegemonic superstate.
Ten thousand years before 1776 there was an advanced culture in the land between Euphrates and Tigris, and during the Achaemide Empire stretching all the way to the Indus Valley. Today, this proud people must come on its knees to Europe like a beggar with hat in hand and ask for forgiveness. For something it has the legal right to do, to be proud of their achievements. What is taken for granted in the West and in Israel, Pakistan, India, Russia and China, is forbidden for the once so proud people of this region.
“I have his signature” boasted Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain after arriving back from the meeting with Adolf Hitler, waving proudly to his countrymen the piece of paper he took back from Munich. Gravely underestimating and misunderstanding his opponents true intention. “We are sure of an imminent agreement with the Iranians” boasted lackeys of the European Union, tongue-in-cheek. It seems that the true intentions of the Vienna meeting are not to have an agreement, but to stall; to squeeze the last drop of patience out of an already suffering nation, hell bent on survival.
Biden or no Biden, the United States didn’t have what it takes to respectfully invite one of the most prominent cultures on the planet to sit down at the same table and have a cup of tea together.
That is why we should be seriously concerned.
IRAN
A so-called “breakthrough” meeting is scheduled on the nuclear deal issue between Iran and the United States in Vienna this week. There will be no “breakthrough” if certain conditions are not met. Editor-in-chief Harald Dahle-Sladek explains why.
The Question of Dignity in our Time
An open letter to the President of the United States of America Joseph Biden.
As we speak, we are sitting on a wreck in the middle of a turbu-lent river moving this way or the other in the direction of total annihilation. Five hundred million people in the Persian Gulf and nearby regions will be drawn into this conflict; five hundred million dead and those who will envy death. And that is just the very beginning.
Prime minister Neville Chamberlain walked that road when he proudly came back from Munich with the signatures of Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini and pulled the world into global mayhem. That will be as thin tea in comparison to this conflict. The Iran, China, Russia axis will guarantee that.
This conflict is not about twenty percent enrichment or twenty one percent enrichment. Neither is it about a small state in the middle East in conflict with a large state in the middle East. We are way beyond that.
The people of the United States – or America as we said when I grew up – tend to reach out to their God every time this great nation is mentioned, “God bless America” they say with near-fanaticism in their voices. The world is not interested in that. What we are concerned about is what deeds does America do.
Wars instigated on false premises, such as the war in Iraq where millions of people are uprooted, wars in North Africa where more millions are uprooted; the creation and support of the Islamic state of Iraq and Levant, the terror organization ISIS, the Vietnam war, the denial to reciprocate the Islamic republic’s assistance to the United States engagement in Afghanistan; are these mediocre and dehuma-nizing and politically embarrassing achievements also being blessed by their God?
There was once a Man who said, “If you read my words and adhere to my teachings, you will be like branches in me that bear fruit. An My Father will see to that you will produce more fruits. I give you (spiritual) Joy, so that your (spiritual) joy may be complete.” Is the United States adhering to these words and live after them, so that it’s deeds – it’s fruits – will be good and permanent?
This scenario is not about percentages of refined Uranium. It is about Dignity. When I was a young boy at eleven, I admired America. I used to look at beautiful advertisements in color of beautiful, American cars surrounded by beautiful admiring people. And my friends did too!
Will the next generations of children in the world continue to admire America the way we did when I grew up? That is what this conflict is about. Because, what are we as human beings when our Dignity is gone, and only the raw, cognitive, hyper rational embodiment in all its ugliness shine through in a seductive, but evil and degrading manner. Yes, I ask, “What are we?” Nothing.
As the United States is lost for solution to the ongoing dilemma with the Islamic republic, I advise President Joseph Biden to comprise dignity and to lift all present sanctions on Iran. Thereby securing the position of an esteemed United States – put spirituality in the words of the leaders and adhere to the teachings of the “God” that it so dearly and often does in public. Restore our confidence in the “Beacon of Hope and Democracy”.
This, Mr. President, is what is needed to solve the deadlock: Rise above mediocracy, restore human Dignity and guarantee that the next generations of kids will continue to admire America.
The German-Swiss psychiatrist and philosopher Karl Jaspers did in his lifetime reflect on the same theme and wrote,
There is a solidarity between people because we are human beings through which everyone shares the responsibility for abuse that one cannot avoid knowing about. If we neglect this responsibility in its entirety and do nothing to help and stop abuse over time, we may be guilty in a way that alone goes beyond the humanistic, spiritual, legal, economic, and humanitarian meaning of this word. Somewhere central in interpersonal relationships, an absolute injunction arises, accept life in its entirety or not at all.
Thank you.
هفته آینده جلسه ای به اصطلاح "دستیابی به موفقیت" در مورد توافق هسته ای بین ایران و ایالات متحده در وین برنامه ریزی شده است. در صورت عدم تحقق برخی شرایط "دستیابی به موفقیت" وجود نخواهد داشت. مدیر تحریریه هارالد داهل-اسلادک دلیل آن را توضیح می دهد
سوال کرامت در زمان ما
نامه ای سرگشاده به رئیس جمهور ایالات متحده آمریكا جوزف بایدن.
همینطور که صحبت می کنیم ، روی یک لاشه هواپیما نشسته ایم که در وسط رودخانه ای متلاطم است و از این طرف یا آن طرف دیگر در جهت نابودی کامل حرکت می کند. پانصد میلیون نفر در خلیج فارس و مناطق نزدیک به این درگیری کشیده می شوند. پانصد میلیون مرده و کسانی که به مرگ حسادت خواهند کرد. و این فقط همان آغاز است.
نخست وزیر ، نویل چمبرلین هنگامی که با افتخار از مونیخ با امضای آدولف هیتلر و بنیتو موسولینی بازگشت و جهان را به ضرب وشتم جهانی کشاند ، آن راه را طی کرد. در مقایسه با این درگیری چای نازکی خواهد بود. محور ایران ، چین ، روسیه این را تضمین می کند.
این درگیری در مورد غنی سازی بیست درصد یا غنی سازی بیست و یک درصد نیست. همچنین در مورد یک کشور کوچک در خاورمیانه در تضاد با یک کشور بزرگ در خاور میانه نیست. ما فراتر از آن هستیم.
مردم ایالات متحده - یا همانطور كه بزرگ شدیم آمریكا گفتیم - تمایل دارند هر بار كه از این ملت بزرگ یاد می شود ، با خدای خود ارتباط برقرار كنند ، "آنها خدا را به آمریكا برسانند" آنها را با تعصب در صدا می گویند. دنیا به آن علاقه ای ندارد. آنچه ما نگران آن هستیم این است که آمریکا چه عملی انجام می دهد.
جنگ هایی که در مکان های دروغین تحریک شده است ، مانند جنگ در عراق که میلیون ها نفر از آن ریشه می شوند ، جنگ در شمال آفریقا که میلیون ها نفر بیشتر از ریشه خارج می شوند. ایجاد و حمایت از دولت اسلامی عراق و شام ، سازمان تروریستی داعش ، جنگ ویتنام ، انکار پاسخ متقابل کمک های جمهوری اسلامی به تعامل ایالات متحده در افغانستان ؛ آیا این دستاوردهای متوسط و غیرانسانی و
خجالت آور سیاسی نیز توسط خداوندشان مورد برکت قرار گرفته است؟
روزگاری مردی گفت: "اگر سخنان مرا بخوانید و به تعالیم من پایبند باشید ، مانند شاخه هایی در من خواهید بود که میوه می دهند. پدر من می بیند که شما میوه های بیشتری خواهید داد. من به شما شادی (معنوی) می دهم ، تا شادی (معنوی) شما کامل شود. " آیا ایالات متحده به این کلمات پایبند است و بعد از آنها زندگی می کند ، به طوری که عمل کند - میوه است - خوب و دائمی باشد؟
این سناریو در مورد درصد اورانیوم تصفیه شده نیست. این در مورد کرامت است. وقتی یازده ساله پسر جوان بودم ، آمریکا را تحسین می کردم. من قبلاً به تبلیغات زیبا و به رنگ ماشینهای زیبا و آمریکایی نگاه می کردم که اطراف آنها را افراد تحسین کننده زیبایی احاطه کرده اند. و دوستان من هم چنین کردند!
آیا نسل های بعدی کودکان در جهان همانطور که ما بزرگ شدم ، تحسین آمریکا را ادامه می دهند؟ این درگیری است. زیرا ، وقتی کرامت ما از بین می رود ، ما به عنوان یک انسان چه هستیم و فقط تجسم خام ، شناختی ، بیش از حد عقلانی در تمام زشتی های آن به شیوه ای اغوا کننده ، اما شیطانی و تحقیرآمیز درخشیده است. بله ، من می پرسم ، "ما چه هستیم؟" هیچ چیزی.
از آنجا که ایالات متحده برای حل معضل فعلی با جمهوری اسلامی گم شده است ، من به رئیس جمهور جوزف بایدن توصیه می کنم که عزت را رعایت کند و همه تحریم های ایران را لغو کند. بدین ترتیب موقعیت ایالات متحده محترم را تضمین می كنید - معنویت را در سخنان رهبران قرار دهید و به تعالیم "خدا" پایبند باشید كه بسیار عزیز و اغلب در ملا public عام انجام می شود. اعتماد ما را به "چراغ امید و دموکراسی" برگردانید.
آقای رئیس جمهور ، این همان چیزی است که برای حل این بن بست لازم است: بالاتر از میانه سالاری ، احترام انسانی را بازگردانید و تضمین کنید که نسل های بعدی بچه ها همچنان آمریکا را تحسین می کنند.
کارل یاسپرس روانپزشک و فیلسوف آلمانی-سوئیسی در طول زندگی خود با همان موضوع تأمل کرد و نوشت ،
یک همبستگی بین مردم وجود دارد زیرا ما انسان هایی هستیم که از طریق آن همه مسئولیت سو abuse استفاده را دارند که نمی توان از دانستن آنها اجتناب کرد. اگر این مسئولیت را به طور کامل نادیده بگیریم و در طول زمان برای کمک و جلوگیری از سو abuse استفاده هیچ کاری انجام ندهیم ، ممکن است مقصر باشیم به گونه ای که به تنهایی فراتر از معنای انسانی ، معنوی ، قانونی ، اقتصادی و انسانی این کلمه باشد. در جایی بین روابط بین فردی ، یک امر مطلق وجود دارد ، زندگی را به طور کامل بپذیرید یا اصلاً آن را قبول نکنید.
متشکرم.

The case of the Islamic Republic in our Time
is a test-bed
for Human Dignity in the Western Culture.
IRAN
ISOLATIONISM LEADS TO WAR
By the editor-in-Chief
Creating dialogue and common ground with the pariah of the West, the Islamic republic of Iran. To the left his excellency Seyed Hossein Adeli Deputy Foreign Minister for Economic Affairs, Governor of the Central Bank, Ambassador to Ottawa and Tokyo receiving Harald Dahle-Sladek editor-in-Chief Petrofilm.com in the Foreign Ministry Tehran April 2002. Dahle, ”Isolating Iran and dehumanizing its population will trigger another Hiroshima. We cannot afford that.”
THE DIGNITY OF HUMAN VALUES
In the past months or so I have published articles and information that I have written concerning Iran one way or the other. I have done this to emphasize the importance of not isolating Iran. Isolating Iran in a coherent, hyper-rational and near genocidal way runs contrary to dignity of human values, as well as the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court ICC. The United States does not recog-nize the ICC. Of good reason, because it knows very well that many of its former and present leaders would be indicted regarding war crimes and crimes against humanity. But USA aside; the ongoing, dehumanizing, and genocidal attitude towards an entire population, it’s leadership, the people of Iran, and denying them lifesaving medical assistance is equal to genocide.
PROPAGANDA FOR A DEADLY SCENARIO
It is our solemn duty to warn against what is happening, regardless which country it might be. The use of nuclear pre-emptive strike against a people and nation is a crime against humanity. The case of the Islamic Republic in our time is a test-bed for human dignity in the Western culture. A culture which has proven again and again that it is capable of extermination of civilizations such as the Jews in Europe between 1938 and 1945, the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki 1945, the overkill terror bombing of Dresden and Hamburg by the American and British Air Force and denying Iran medical supplies in our time. These examples are connected. Hiroshima has happened once, and it can happen again. We have no guarantee that it will not happen again.
The ongoing propaganda from United Against Nuclear Iran UANI plays right into the hands of the instigators of this pre-war and deadly scenario.

در زمان ما ، پرونده جمهوری اسلامی زمینه آزمایش کرامت انسانی در فرهنگ غربی است.
انزوا طلبی جنگ را پیش می برد
شأن ارزش های انسانی
طی چند ماه گذشته ، من مقالات و اطلاعاتی درباره ایران منتشر کرده ام که نوشتم. من این کار را کردم تا بر اهمیت منزوی نشدن ایران تأکید کنم. منزوی کردن ایران به روشی منسجم ، کاملاً منطقی و تقریباً نسل کشی بر خلاف شأن ارزش های انسانی است و همچنین اساسنامه رم را در دادگاه کیفری بین المللی نقض می کند. ایالات متحده دادگاه کیفری بین المللی را به رسمیت نمی شناسد. این دلایل خوبی دارد ، زیرا می فهمد که بسیاری از رهبران سابق و فعلی آن به دلیل جنایات جنگی و جنایت علیه بشریت تحت پیگرد قانونی قرار خواهند گرفت. به جز ایالات متحده ؛ برای کل مردم ، رهبری آن ، نگرش مداوم ، غیرانسانی و نسل کشی مردم ایران ، انکار کمک های پزشکی نجات دهنده آنها به معنای نسل کشی است.
پروپاگاندا برای سناریوی مرگبار
این وظیفه جدی ما است که بدون توجه به کشور ممکن ، نسبت به آنچه اتفاق می افتد هشدار دهیم. استفاده از حمله پیشگیرانه هسته ای علیه مردم و ملت جرم بشریت است. قضیه جمهوری اسلامی در زمان ما بستری برای آزمایش کرامت انسانی در فرهنگ غربی است. فرهنگی که بارها و بارها ثابت کرده است که قادر به نابودی تمدن هایی مانند یهودیان در اروپا بین سالهای 1938 و 1945 ، بمباران هیروشیما و ناگازاکی 1945 ، بمب گذاری بیش از حد ترور در درسدن و هامبورگ توسط نیروی هوایی آمریکا و انگلیس است و انکار تجهیزات پزشکی ایران در زمان ما این نمونه ها به هم پیوسته اند. هیروشیما یک بار اتفاق افتاده است و می تواند دوباره تکرار شود. ما هیچ تضمینی برای تکرار شدن آن نداریم.
تبلیغات مداوم از سوی اتحادیه علیه ایران هسته ای UANI درست به دست متخلفان از این سناریوی مرگبار پیش از جنگ و بازی می انجامد.
NORWAY
Norway's Communist-inspired Mediocracy!
By the editor-in-chief
Out of the State's Vision of near-Communist social equality, an intellectual underclass has been created. Filling this intellectual void gave way to the Norwegian mediocracy as it is shamefully displayed in today's Dictatorship of the Partitocracy. As well as among the Norwegian people in general, and the ever-richer green petro-elite.
Communist friend Jens Stoltenberg, later NATO Secretary General.
The Message remains the Same
Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov Lenin is seen here preaching equality to the masses; 104 years after his birth, Prime Minister Erna Solberg of Norway does the same camouflaged as State backed right-wing equality propaganda; the message remains the same.
The Dictatorship of the Partitocracy
The Norwegian Mediocracy is a dominant class consisting of mediocre people trapped in a system in which mediocracy is rewarded. The utter lack of Covid-19 vaccines and hospital beds, as two examples, are serious warning signals and clear verifications of a downward spiraling trend. So is the disinte-gration of meaning in the spoken language.
Norway has a State-led policy of philosophy with direct antihuman traits. Fear of the Aristocracy - ruling by the best - and the elimination of the upper class in general, has inspired rhetorical absurdities wrapped in cuddly, meaningless talk. Filling this intellectual void gave way to the Norwegian mediocracy as it is shamefully displayed in today's dictatorship of the partitocracy. As well as among the people in general and the ever-richer green petro elite.
The Norwegian way of creating dialogue and common ground is to desperately try to understand every word from its cognitive side detached from its empathic and cultural bearings. Followed by a swift minimization of what one has interpreted as have been said, and then grudgingly throw it back to the speaker as an unworthy nothing. Because in Norway you shall neither be anything nor get confirmation that what you say is worth something. Out of the State's vision of near-communist social equality, an intellectual underclass has been created.
Norway-Iran relations 2003
Nowhere in the history of modern Norway was its mediocracy more evident than with its titanic clash of civilizations with Iran between 2000 and 2004. Here from my reflections on the matter.
The last meeting on Minister level between Norway and Iran took place in May 2003 on the 15th Executive Floor of the National Iranian Oil company NIOC. On the left side as #3 from left sits Iran’s Minister of Oil Bijan Zanganeh with his Norwegian counterpart Minister of Energy and Petroleum Einar Steensnes as #6 on the right side. Norway's eagerness to portray itself as the corrupt equality-country it is backfired and STATOIL's endeavors in the Islamic Republic ended abruptly. Picture: (C)2003 Harald Dahle-Sladek
The Editor-in-chief:
Even before the plane with its Government officials and repre-sentatives of the petroleum related industries had left the Norwegian airspace, Norway had in fact already lost its unique business opportunity in the Islamic republic of Iran. These fish eating latecomers had all arrived Teheran’s Mehrabad Airport from a country which, in a radical way, distances itself from piety and where spirituality does not have any important place in the daily lives of the people. And where the word "Islam" in their Nordic consciousness often is associated with terrorism and threats. The stage was now set for a humongous clash between two contradictory civilizations!
From the very outset it was the twisted Norwegian mindset, the whole chain of command in Oslo and it's ill prepared bureaucracy that faulted. Right from the Parliament down through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Energy and Oil, INTSOK and the industry, and the medium sized oil company Statoil whose ethical bearing were out of course. Their factual relations to Iran were all seriously lagging behind and bribery and corruption were only two unpleasant sides of a larger and more complex picture. Welcome to Norway's worst diplomatic, ethical and industrial catastrophe in modern times. (Read the full story under section: NORWAY: END GAME TEHRAN CEO OLAV FJELL)
EUROPE
Muhammad Cartoon Drawings in the Last days of a Waning Christian Faith.
Muslims must find other ways than killing people in Europe to express their frustration over Muhammad cartoon drawings. It is not acceptable. However! The Europeans must show dignity and piety towards non-Christian religions and beliefs. History has shown, that in Europe, this is an illusion.
This is not a cartoon drawing.
Prophet Muhammad, the Messenger of God
The fanaticism of European right-wing politics intertwined with Christian beliefs, supported both on the Catholic as well as on the Protestant side proves this correct. The Vatican’s support of the Independent Ustaše State of Croatia, Nezavisna Država Hrvatska NDH, between 1941 and 1945. Pope Pius XII betrayed the Jews, collaboration with the Nazi Party to withdraw the Catholic Center Party which paved the way for Adolf Hitler to become Chancellor.
European anti-Muslim feelings go back to the Middle Ages and earlier. Military Christian orders like Knights Templars, the Knights Hospitaller, Order of St James, Order of Calatrava, Sovereign Military Order of Malta and order of St John are Catholic and Protestant successors of the Nights Hospitaller. In 1053, for the Battle of Civitate, the Knights of Saint Peter was founded as a militia by Pope Leo IX to counter the Normans. In response to the Islamic conquests of the former Byzantine Empire, numerous Catholic military orders were set up following the First Crusade.
The founding of such orders suited the Catholic church's plan of channeling the devotion of the European nobility toward achieving the Church's temporal goals, and it also complemented the Peace and Truce of God. The foundation of the Knights Templar in 1118 provided the first in a series of tightly organized military forces for the purpose of opposing Islamic conquests in the Holy Land and in the Iberian Peninsula as well as Islamic invaders and pagan tribes in Eastern Europe which were perceived as threats to the Church's supremacy.
In Europe, Freedom of expression, Article 19 in UN’s Charter, is hyped up as basis for a collective European downgrading of Prophet Muhammad. But, as the Europeans twist and bend their argumen-tation for making the Prophet look hilarious and even get the support of State leaders, empathy, respect, and dignity among Western cultures is waning like fog on an October, cold morning.
The Knights Order have been replaced by the Military Western Alliance, the United States, Great Britain, France, Germany, Belgium, Italy, Denmark, Norway, and Spain. Hyped-up illegal wars under the pretext of weapons of mass destruction have erased Islamic cultures from North Africa till Iraq and Afghanistan. Such is the lack of respect for Prophet Muhammad in the West, that a war on Iran will seem “justifiable”, “in our interest” and blessed by the Christian supre-macies. Muhammad cartoon drawings in the last days of a waning Christian European faith is a serious warning sign of wars to come!
نقاشی های کارتونی محمد در آخرین روزهای ایمان مسیحی رو به زوال.
مسلمانان برای ابراز سرخوردگی خود از نقاشی های کارتونی محمد باید راهی غیر از کشتن مردم در اروپا پیدا کنند. قابل قبول نیست. با این حال! اروپایی ها باید نسبت به ادیان و اعتقادات غیر مسیحی عزت و تقوا نشان دهند. تاریخ نشان داده است که این در اروپا یک توهم است.
تعصب سیاست راست گرایان اروپا که با عقاید مسیحی در هم آمیخته است ، هم از طرف کاتولیک و هم از طرف پروتستان پشتیبانی می شود ، این درست بودن را ثابت می کند. حمایت واتیکان از ایالت مستقل اوستای کرواسی NDH بین سالهای 1941 و 1945. همکاری پاپ پیوس دوازدهم برای پس گرفتن حزب مرکز کاتولیک زمینه را برای آدولف هیتلر برای صدارت فراهم کرد.
احساسات ضد مسلمان اروپایی به قرون وسطی و قبل از آن برمی گردد. دستورات مسیحیان نظامی مانند شوالیه های شوالیه ، شوالیه نایتلرز ، نشان سنت جیمز ، نشان کالاتراوا ، نظام نظامی مستقل مالت و دستور سنت جان از جانشینان کاتولیک و پروتستان بیمارستان های شب ها هستند. در سال 1053 ، برای نبرد سیویتیت ، شوالیه های سنت پیتر به عنوان شبه نظامی توسط پاپ لئو نهم برای مقابله با نرمان ها تاسیس شد. در واکنش به فتوحات اسلامی امپراتوری بیزانس سابق ، پس از جنگ صلیبی اول ، دستورات نظامی کاتولیک متعددی تنظیم شد.
تأسیس چنین دستوراتی متناسب با برنامه کلیسای کاتولیک بود که می توانست ارادت اشراف اروپایی را برای دستیابی به اهداف زمانی کلیسا هدایت کند ، و همچنین مکمل صلح و آتش بس خدا بود. بنیاد شوالیه های معبد در سال 1118 اولین مجموعه از نیروهای نظامی کاملاً سازمان یافته را برای مقابله با فتوحات اسلامی در سرزمین مقدس و در شبه جزیره ایبری و همچنین مهاجمان اسلامی و قبایل بت پرست در اروپای شرقی فراهم کرد که تصور می شد تهدید برتری کلیسا.
در اروپا ، آزادی بیان ، ماده 19 در منشور سازمان ملل متحد ، به عنوان پایه ای برای تنزل درجه جمعی حضرت محمد در اروپا مطرح شده است. اما ، در حالی که اروپاییان بحث و استدلال خود را برای خنده آور نشان دادن پیامبر و حتی جلب حمایت رهبران ایالت خم می کنند و خم می کنند ، همدلی ، احترام و عزت در میان فرهنگهای غربی مانند مه در اکتبر و یک صبح سرد رو به زوال است.
اتحاد نظامی غربی ، ایالات متحده ، انگلیس ، فرانسه ، آلمان ، بلژیک ، ایتالیا ، دانمارک ، نروژ و اسپانیا جایگزین نظم شوالیه ها شده است. جنگ های غیرقانونی گسترده به بهانه سلاح های کشتار جمعی فرهنگ های اسلامی را از شمال آفریقا تا عراق و افغانستان محو کرده است. عدم احترام به حضرت محمد در غرب به حدی است که جنگ علیه ایران "قابل توجیه" ، "به نفع ما" و برکت مرواریدهای مسیحی به نظر می رسد. نقاشی های کارتونی محمد در آخرین روزهای ایمان مسیحی اروپایی که در حال کمرنگ شدن است ، نشانه جدی هشدار جنگ های آینده است!
EUROPE
EUROPE’S SECOND WAVE OF GENOCIDE
MADE POSSIBLE BY INCOMPETENT TOTALITARIANISM
WRAPPED IN QUASI-HUMANISTIC HYPE
GENOCIDE ON A GRANDER SCALE
By the editor-in-Chief
The European COVID-19 vaccine drama reflects an authoritarian acceptance of genocide on a grander scale en par with the extermi-nation of the Jews. There are disturbing common traits in both incidences. Exterminations of the Jews could have been and should have been terminated, but it wasn’t because it served a political purpose. The ongoing pandemic could have and should have been terminated in Europe by now, but it is still an ongoing phenomenon because it serves an EU-political overriding purpose, to establish an authoritarian presence. In both cases, the leadership of Europe were morally, ethically, judicially, financially, and medically incapable of solving life threatening, urgent problems.
1943 WITH DEMOCRATIC COATING
The present leadership of the German Republic, with Angela Merkel, is replicating 1943, although with democratic coating. But the results are the same, dead Covid-19 people are queuing up for the incinerators working on full capacity. This is Europe’s second wave of genocide wrapped in quasi-humanistic hype giving the impression of caring. To deny people of Europe vaccine, as is the case with Sputnik V, is to prioritize death for life. Europe is once again the continent of death blessed by incompetent totalitarianism.
موج دوم نسل کشی اروپا
با کل گرایی نامناسب ساخته شده است
بسته بندی شده در hyypi انسانی - اندازه ای
نسل کشی در مقیاس بزرگتر
توسط مدیرمسئول
درام واکسن COVID-19 در اروپا منعکس کننده پذیرش اقتدارگرایانه نسل کشی در مقیاس بزرگتر با ملت نابود یهودیان است. صفات مشترک نگران کننده ای در هر دو مورد وجود دارد. اما این به این دلیل نبود که به یک هدف سیاسی می انجامید. همه گیری در حال انجام می توانست و باید تاکنون در اروپا خاتمه یافته باشد ، اما هنوز هم یک پدیده مداوم است زیرا ایجاد یک هدف اصلی سیاسی اتحادیه اروپا برای ایجاد حضور اقتدارگرا است. در هر دو مورد ، رهبری اروپا از نظر اخلاقی ، اخلاقی ، قضایی ، مالی و پزشکی از نظر حل مشکلات فوری تهدید کننده زندگی ناتوان بود.
1943 با پوشش دموکراتیک
رهبری کنونی جمهوری آلمان ، با آنگلا مرکل ، در سال 1943 تکرار می شود ، اگرچه با پوشش دموکراتیک. اما نتایج یکسان است ، افراد کشته شده 19 کووید -19 برای صفحات زباله سوز با ظرفیت کامل صف می کشند. این موج دوم اروپا است نسل کشی پیچیده در هیاهوی شبه انسان گرایانه که احساس مراقبت می کند. انکار واکسن در اروپا ، همانطور که در مورد Sputnik V اتفاق می افتد ، اولویت قرار دادن مرگ برای زندگی است. اروپا یک بار دیگر قاره مرگ است که توسط توتالیتاریسم ناتوان برکت داده شده است.
包裹不完全的共產主義可能導致
在准人文主義的炒作中
歐洲的第二次種族滅絕波
主編
歐洲的COVID-19疫苗劇情反映了種族滅絕的威權主義,與猶太人的審判相比,規模更大。兩種情況都有令人不安的共同特徵。猶太人的滅絕本來可以並且應該已經終止,但這不是因為這樣做是出於政治目的。正在進行的大流行本來可以並且應該在歐洲已經終止,但是它仍然是一種持續的現象,因為它在建立獨裁統治的過程中符合歐盟政治壓倒一切的目的。在這兩種情況下,歐洲領導人在道德,道德,司法,財政和醫學上都無法解決威脅生命的緊急問題。
德意志共和國現任領導人與安格拉·默克爾(Angela Merkel)正在仿效1943年,儘管實行民主制度。但是結果是一樣的,死去的Covid-19工人正在排隊等待焚燒爐的全負荷運轉。這是歐洲第二次種族滅絕浪潮,包裹著半人道的炒作,給人以關懷的印象。如Sputnik V那樣,拒絕給歐洲人接種疫苗,是要優先考慮終身死亡。歐洲再次是無能的極權主義所賜予的死亡大陸。
RENDU POSSIBLE PAR TOTALITARIANISME INCOMPÉTENT ENVELOPPÉ DANS UNE HYPE QUASI-HUMANISTIQUE
DEUXIÈME VAGUE
DE GÉNOCIDE EN EUROPE
Par le rédacteur en chef Harald Dahle-Sladek
Le drame du vaccin européen COVID-19 reflète une acceptation autoritaire du génocide à plus grande échelle, comparable à l'extermination des Juifs. Il y a des traits communs inquiétants dans les deux cas. Les exterminations des Juifs auraient pu et auraient dû être terminées, mais ce n’était pas parce qu’elles servaient un objectif politique. La pandémie en cours aurait pu et aurait dû prendre fin en Europe à l'heure actuelle, mais il s'agit toujours d'un phénomène en cours car elle sert un objectif politique primordial de l'UE, à savoir établir une présence autoritaire. Dans les deux cas, les dirigeants européens étaient moralement, éthiquement, judiciairement, financièrement et médicalement incapables de résoudre des problèmes urgents mettant la vie en danger.
La direction actuelle de la République allemande, avec Angela Merkel, reproduit 1943, bien qu'avec un revêtement démocratique. Mais les résultats sont les mêmes, des personnes décédées de Covid-19 font la queue pour les incinérateurs fonctionnant à pleine capacité. C’est la deuxième vague de génocide de l’Europe enveloppée dans un battage médiatique quasi humaniste donnant l’impression d’être attentionné. Refuser le vaccin aux Européens, comme c'est le cas avec Spoutnik V, c'est donner la priorité à la mort pour la vie. L'Europe est à nouveau le continent de la mort béni par un totalitarisme incompétent.

The United States Obtains Final Judgement and Permanent Injunction
Against Edward Snowden
The U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia has entered a final judgment and permanent injunction against Edward Snowden, a former employee of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and contractor for the National Security Agency (NSA).
In September 2019, the United States filed a lawsuit against Snowden, who published a book entitled Permanent Record in violation of the non-disclosure agreements he signed with both CIA and NSA. The lawsuit alleged that Snowden published his book without submitting it to the agencies for pre-publication review, in violation of his express obligations under the agreements he signed. Additionally, the lawsuit alleges that Snowden has given public speeches on intelligence-related matters, also in violation of his non-disclosure agreements.
The United States’ lawsuit did not seek to stop or restrict the publication or distribution of Permanent Record. Rather, under well-established Supreme Court precedent, Snepp v. United States, the government sought to recover all proceeds earned by Snowden because of his failure to submit his publication for pre-publication review in violation of his alleged contractual and fiduciary obligations.
FINANCIAL CRIME
Hollywood Film Producer Charged with $1.7 Million COVID-Relief Fraud
Individual Used Funds for Personal Expenses. A California man has been charged with allegedly filing bank loan applications fraudulently seeking more than $1.7 million dollars in forgivable Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans guaranteed by the Small Business Administration (SBA) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act.
William Sadleir, 66, of Beverly Hills, California, was charged in a federal criminal complaint filed in the Central District of California with wire fraud, bank fraud, false statements to a financial institution, and false statements to the SBA.
“This defendant allegedly used Paycheck Protection Program loans to pay off his personal credit card debts and other personal expenses, rather than using the funds for legitimate business needs,” said Assistant Attorney General Brian A. Benczkowski of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division. “As the department has made clear, those who defraud the PPP to line their own pockets at the expense of the American people will be brought to justice.”
“This film producer allegedly made a series of misrepresentations to a bank and the Small Business Administration to illegally secure taxpayer money that he then used to fund his nearly empty personal bank account,” said U.S. Attorney Nick Hanna of the Central District of California. “The Paycheck Protection Program was implemented to help small businesses stay afloat during the financial crisis, and we will act swiftly against those who abuse the program for their own personal gain.”
“These funds were designed to be a lifeline to businesses struggling to stay afloat during the current crisis,” said Assistant Director in Charge Paul Delacourt of the FBI’s Los Angeles Field Office. “The FBI is committed to maintaining the integrity of the PPP and will hold accountable those who cheat the system at the expense of American taxpayers.”
Novartis Pays Over $642 Million to Settle Allegations of Improper Payments to Patients and Physicians
Pharmaceutical company Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation
based in East Hanover, New Jersey, has agreed to pay over $642 million in separate settlements resolving claims that it violated the False Claims Act (FCA). The first settlement pertains to the company’s alleged illegal use of three foundations as conduits to pay the copayments of Medicare patients taking Novartis’s drugs Gilenya and Afinitor. The second settlement resolves claims arising from the company’s alleged payments of kickbacks to doctors.
“Through this settlement and others, the government has demonstrated its commitment to ensuring that drug companies do not use kickbacks to influence the drugs prescribed by doctors or purchased by patients,” said Assistant Attorney General Jody Hunt of the Department of Justice’s Civil Division. “We will continue to safeguard the Medicare program from kickbacks and their pernicious effects, including the undermining of important cost-control mechanisms instituted by Congress.”
The Anti-Kickback Statute prohibits anyone from offering or paying, directly or indirectly, any remuneration — which includes money or any other thing of value — to induce referrals of items or services covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and other federally funded programs. This prohibition extends not only to improper payments to providers, but also to the improper payment of patients’ copay obligations.
In the first settlement, Novartis has agreed to pay $51.25 million to resolve allegations that it illegally paid the copay obligations for patients taking its drugs. When a Medicare beneficiary obtains a prescription drug covered by Medicare, the beneficiary may be required to make a partial payment, which may take the form of a copayment, coinsurance, or a deductible (collectively “copays”). Congress included copay requirements in the Medicare program, in part, to serve as a check on health care costs, including the prices that pharmaceutical manufacturers can demand for their drugs.
Novartis sells Gilenya, which is approved for treatment of relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS). The government alleged that, in October 2012, Novartis learned from the contractor managing Novartis’s free drug program for Gilenya that over 300 patients who were receiving free drugs would be eligible for Medicare in 2013. Novartis and the contractor transitioned those patients to Medicare Part D so that, in the future, Novartis would obtain revenue from Medicare when those patients filled prescriptions for Gilenya. Knowing those patients could not afford the copay for Gilenya, Novartis developed a plan with a foundation so that Novartis could cover the copays for those patients. Specifically, at the same time Novartis made a payment to the foundation, Novartis arranged for the foundation to open its MS fund at 6:00 pm on a Friday and for the contractor to have personnel working overtime to submit applications for those patients who had been receiving free Gilenya. Novartis knew that this coordination would result in a disproportionate share of its funding going to Gilenya patients for 2013.
Former Senior Alstom Executive Sentenced to Prison for Role in Money Laundering Scheme to Promote Foreign Bribery
A former senior executive with Alstom S.A. (Alstom), a French power and transportation company, was senten-ced in federal court in New Haven, Connecticut, to 15 months in prison today for his role in a multi-year, multimillion-dollar money laundering scheme designed to promote violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA).
Assistant Attorney General Brian A. Benczkowski of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division, U.S. Attorney John H. Durham of the District of Connecticut and Assistant Director in Charge Paul D. Delacout of the FBI’s Los Angeles Office made the announcement.
Lawrence Hoskins, 69, was sentenced on charges of conspiracy and money laundering, following his conviction in November 2019, after a one-week jury trial before U.S. District Judge Janet Bond Arterton, who imposed today’s sentence. In addition to his prison term, Hoskins was fined $30,000.
According to the evidence presented at trial, Hoskins was a senior vice president for Alstom’s International Network, who engaged in a conspiracy to promote the payment of bribes to officials in Indonesia in exchange for assistance in securing a $118 million contract, known as the Tarahan project, for Alstom Power Inc. of Connecticut and its consortium partner, Marubeni Corporation, to provide power-related services for the citizens of Indonesia. The officials in Indonesia included a high-ranking member of the Indonesian Parliament and the President of Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN), the state-owned and state-controlled electricity company in Indonesia. To conceal the bribes, Hoskins and his co-conspirators retained two consultants purportedly to provide legitimate consulting services on behalf of Alstom Power Inc., in connection with the Tarahan project. The primary purpose of hiring the consultants was to conceal the bribes to Indonesian officials, the evidence showed.
Herbalife Nutrition Ltd. Agrees to Pay Over $122 Million to Resolve FCPA Case
Herbalife Nutrition Ltd. (Herbalife), a U.S.-based publicly traded global nutrition company, has agreed to pay total penalties of more than $122 million to resolve the government’s investigation into violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). The resolution arises out of Herbalife’s scheme to falsify books and records and provide corrupt payments and benefits to Chinese government officials for the purpose of obtaining, retaining, and increasing Herbalife’s business in China. This includes a criminal penalty of over $55 million and approximately $67 million to be paid to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in a related matter.
Herbalife entered into a deferred prosecution agreement with the Criminal Division’s Fraud Section and the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York in connection with a criminal information filed today in the Southern District of New York charging Herbalife with one count of conspiracy to violate the books and records provision of the FCPA.
“By engaging in a decade-long scheme to falsify its books and records to conceal corrupt and other improper payments to Chinese officials and state-owned entities, Herbalife misrepresented important information made available to investors,” said Acting Assistant Attorney General Brian C. Rabbitt of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division. “The integrity of our financial markets depends on the timely and accurate disclosure of material information about companies’ operations. Today’s resolution reflects the department’s ongoing commitment to combating international corruption and ensuring that investors can trust the accuracy of the financial statements of publicly traded companies.”
FINANCIAL CRIMES BRAZIL
J&F Investimentos S.A. Pleads Guilty and Agrees to Pay Over $256 Million to Resolve Criminal Foreign Bribery Case
J&F Investimentos S.A. a Brazil-based investment company that owns and controls companies involved in multiple industries, including the meat and agriculture industry, has agreed to pay a criminal monetary penalty of $256,497,026 to resolve the depart-ment’s investigation into violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). The resolution arises out of J&F’s scheme to pay millions of dollars in bribes to government officials in Brazil in exchange for obtaining financing and other benefits for J&F and J&F-owned entities.
Joesley Batista, former president and chief executive officer of J&F Investimentos SA, listens during a congressional inquiry hearing at the National Congress building in Brasilia, Brazil, on Tuesday, Nov. 28, 2017. The securities regulator opened an investigation on October 26 accusing brothers Joesley and Wesley Batista for insider trading and market manipulation. JBS SA, Joesley and Wesley have repeatedly denied any wrongdoing.
JBS Owner Joesley Batista Arrested Again in Corruption Probe
J&F pleaded guilty and entered into a cooperation plea agreement with the Criminal Division’s Fraud Section and the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York in connection with a criminal information filed today in the Eastern District of New York charging J&F with one count of conspiracy to violate the anti-bribery provisions of the FCPA.
“With today’s guilty plea, J&F has admitted to engaging in a long-running scheme to bribe corrupt officials in Brazil to obtain financing and other benefits for the company,” said Acting Assistant Attorney General Brian C. Rabbitt of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division. “As part of this scheme, executives at the very highest levels of the company used U.S. banks and real estate to pay tens of millions of dollars in bribes to corrupt government officials in Brazil in order to obtain hundreds of millions of dollars in financing for the company and its affiliates. Today’s resolution demonstrates the department’s continuing commitment to combating international corruption and holding companies accountable for violations of the FCPA.”
“Today’s resolution and guilty plea, including a $256 million fine, demonstrates our office’s full commitment to holding accountable those entities that seek to gain an improper advantage over competitors by bribing foreign officials and using the U.S. financial system to carry out the crimes,” said Acting U.S. Attorney Seth D. DuCharme for the Eastern District of New York. “Protecting the integrity of the financial system is a core priority of the Department of Justice.”
“No matter where it occurs, the FBI and our global partners are committed to diligently rooting out corruption which betrays public trust and threatens a fair economy,” said Special Agent in Charge James A. Dawson of the FBI Washington Field Office Criminal Division. “Today’s plea demonstrates the FBI’s commitment to combatting foreign corruption reaching the United States, and today’s actions send a strong message that we will not relent in our efforts to uphold the law and hold everyone accountable to play by the same, fair rules.”
According to admissions by J&F, between 2005 and 2017, the company conspired with others to violate the FCPA by paying bribes to government officials in Brazil in order to ensure that Brazilian state-owned and state-controlled banks would enter into debt and equity financing transactions with J&F and J&F-owned entities, as well as to obtain approval for a merger from a Brazilian state-owned and state-controlled pension fund.
Specifically, between 2005 and 2014, J&F engaged in a bribery scheme involving more than $148 million in corrupt payments that were promised and made to and for the benefit of high-level Brazilian government officials, including a then-high-ranking executive at Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social (BNDES), a Brazilian state-owned and state-controlled bank. In exchange for the bribe payments, J&F was able to obtain hundreds of millions of dollars in financing from BNDES.
In addition, J&F paid bribes worth more than $4.6 million to and for the benefit of a high-ranking executive of Fundação Petrobras de Seguridade Social (Petros), a Brazilian state-controlled pension fund in exchange for obtaining Petros’s approval for a significant merger that benefited J&F. J&F also paid approximately $25 million in bribes to a high-ranking official in the legislative branch of the Brazilian government in order to secure hundreds of millions of dollars of financing from Caixa Econômica Federal (Caixa), a Brazilian state-owned and state-controlled bank.
FINANCIAL CRIMES
Ericsson Agrees to Pay Over $1 Billion to Resolve FCPA Case
Ericsson Subsidiary Pleads Guilty to FCPA Violations
Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson (Ericsson or the Company), a multinational telecommunications company headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden, has agreed to pay total penalties of more than $1 billion to resolve the government’s investigation into violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) arising out of the Company’s scheme to make and improperly record tens of millions of dollars in improper payments around the world. This includes a criminal penalty of over $520 million and approximately $540 million to be paid to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in a related matter. An Ericsson subsidiary pleaded guilty today for its role in the scheme.
Ericsson entered into a deferred prosecution agreement with the department in connection with a criminal information filed today in the Southern District of New York charging the Company with conspiracies to violate the anti-bribery, books and records, and internal controls provisions of the FCPA. The Ericsson subsidiary, Ericsson Egypt Ltd, pleaded guilty today in the Southern District of New York to a one-count criminal information charging it with conspiracy to violate the anti-bribery provisions of the FCPA. The case is assigned to U.S. District Judge Alison J. Nathan of the Southern District of New York. Pursuant to its agreement with the department, Ericsson has committed to pay a total criminal penalty of $520,650,432 within 10 business days of the sentencing hearing, and has agreed to the imposition of an independent compliance monitor.
“Ericsson’s corrupt conduct involved high-level executives and spanned 17 years and at least five countries, all in a misguided effort to increase profits,” said Assistant Attorney General Brian A. Benczkowski of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division. “Such wrongdoing called for a strong response from law enforcement, and through a tenacious effort with our partners in the Southern District of New York, the SEC, and the IRS, today’s action not only holds Ericsson accountable for these schemes, but should deter other companies from engaging in similar criminal conduct.”
“Today, Swedish telecom giant Ericsson has admitted to a years-long campaign of corruption in five countries to solidify its grip on telecommunications business,” said U.S. Attorney Geoffrey S. Berman of the Southern District of New York. “Through slush funds, bribes, gifts, and graft, Ericsson conducted telecom business with the guiding principle that ‘money talks.’ Today’s guilty plea and surrender of over a billion dollars in combined penalties should communicate clearly to all corporate actors that doing business this way will not be tolerated.”
“Implementing strong compliance systems and internal controls are basic principles that international companies must follow to steer clear of illegal activity,” said Don Fort, Chief, IRS Criminal Investigation. “Ericsson’s shortcomings in these areas made it easier for its executives and employees to pay bribes and falsify its books and records. We will continue to pursue cases such as these in order to preserve a global commerce system free of corruption.”
According to admissions by Ericsson, beginning in 2000 and continuing until 2016, the Company conspired with others to violate the FCPA by engaging in a longstanding scheme to pay bribes, to falsify books and records and to fail to implement reasonable internal accounting controls. Ericsson used third party agents and consultants to make bribe payments to government officials and/or to manage off-the-books slush funds. These agents were often engaged through sham contracts and paid pursuant to false invoices, and the payments to them were improperly accounted for in Ericsson’s books and records. The resolutions cover the Company’s criminal conduct in Djibouti, China, Vietnam, Indonesia and Kuwait.
Between 2010 and 2014, Ericsson, via a subsidiary, made approximately $2.1 million in bribe payments to high-ranking government officials in Djibouti in order to obtain a contract with the state-owned telecommunications company valued at approximately €20.3 million to modernize the mobile networks system in Djibouti. In order to effectuate the scheme, an Ericsson subsidiary entered into a sham contract with a consulting company and approved fake invoices to conceal the bribe payments. Ericsson employees also completed a draft due diligence report that failed to disclose the spousal relationship between the owner of the consulting company and one of the high-ranking government officials.
In China, between 2000 and 2016, Ericsson subsidiaries caused tens of millions of dollars to be paid to various agents, consultants and service providers, a portion of which was used to fund a travel expense account in China that covered gifts, travel and entertainment for foreign officials, including customers from state-owned telecommunications companies. Ericsson used the travel expense account to win business with Chinese state-owned customers. In addition, between 2013 and 2016, Ericsson subsidiaries made payments of approximately $31.5 million to third party service providers pursuant to sham contracts for services that were never performed. The purpose of these payments was to allow Ericsson’s subsidiaries in China to continue to use and pay third party agents in China in contravention of Ericsson’s policies and procedures. Ericsson knowingly mischaracterized these payments and improperly recorded them in its books and records.
In Vietnam, between 2012 and 2015, Ericsson subsidiaries made approximately $4.8 million in payments to a consulting company in order to create off-the-books slush funds, associated with Ericsson’s customers in Vietnam, that were used to make payments to third parties who would not be able to pass Ericsson’s due diligence processes. Ericsson knowingly mischaracterized these payments and improperly recorded them in Ericsson’s books and records. Similarly, in Indonesia, between 2012 and 2015, an Ericsson subsidiary made approximately $45 million in payments to a consulting company in order to create off-the-books slush funds, and concealed the payments on Ericsson’s books and records.
In Kuwait, between 2011 and 2013, an Ericsson subsidiary promised a payment of approximately $450,000 to a consulting company at the request of a sales agent, and then entered into a sham contract with the consulting company and approved a fake invoice for services that were never performed in order to conceal the payment. The sales agent provided an Ericsson employee with inside information about a tender for the modernization of a state-owned telecommunications company’s radio access network in Kuwait. An Ericsson subsidiary was awarded the contract valued at approximately $182 million; Ericsson subsequently made the $450,000 payment to the consulting company and improperly recorded it in its books.
Financial Crime #1: STATOIL Norway
Norway's catastrophic involvement in the Islamic Republic of Iran be-tween 2000 and 2003 is a good example of what I will describe as a vertical system collapse. The Statoil in Iran collapse did not spread in a horizontal direction, but was shaped like a wedge with the tip down. The relationship of responsibility was clearly heaviest at the top, which is the opposite conclusion that was drawn by the collective Norweg-ian media elite at the time.

DEVASTATING: STATOIL CEO OLAV FJELL, THE ONE WHO KNEW!
Norway had set its course and moved majestically through the sea like a modern cruise liner. But the Iranian waters proved to unfamiliar to navigate in and the ship headed for a disaster. But nobody on the Bridge cared.
NORWAY: DARK CLOUDS GATHERING
Norway’s entering into the Islamic Republic of Iran in 2000 became a prelude to the worst diplomatic and industrial disaster the country had ever experienced. Only overshadowed by its nightmarish relations to Peoples Republic of China, in 2010 after the Norwegian parliament-appointed Norwegian Nobel Committee awarded the Peace prize to Chinese human rights activist Liu Xiaobo. In both cases Norway used its check-book diplomacy to crawl back and normalize its relations. To make oneself unpopular with two of the oldest civilations on the planet in less than ten years is quite an achievement in itself!
FROM THE PARLIAMENT DOWN
At last the Norwegian Government had decided to enter the Islamic Republic of Iran. But it's reputation and political standing were to be ruined by lack of experience in creating dialogue and common ground with the Embassy of Iran in Oslo, and a deeper understanding of doing business with Teheran. Any previous negative energy between the two sides was carefully being hidden behind a constructed façade of exuberant optimism. And then, in an instant, the scene-carpet came down.
ZANGANEH'S MOBILE PHONE NUMBER
During a good-bye reception at the Iranian Embassy in March 2004, just months before ending his four-year period as Ambassador and leaving Oslo for Teheran, Ambassador Noghrehkar Shirazi revealed to the Editor-in-Chief Harald Dahle the following.
Shirazi:
"During a meeting that was held at the Statoil headquarter, I conveyed a message to Olav Fjell from our Minister of Oil Mr. Zanganeh. Zanganeh had instructed me to say that if Fjell had a question, ore problem, he could just phone him on his mobile phone. So, I gave Olav Fjell the mobile phone number Zanganeh had given me, but Fjell never called him back. The problems which Statoil had could easily have been cleaned out with Zanganeh over the phone, but there was no sign from Statoil and Zanganeh found this very odd!"
It is worth commenting that at the time when Bijan Zanganeh instructed Ambassador Shirazi to give CEO Olav Fjell his private mobile phone number, he was already aware of Statoil's under-the-table operations with son of president Hashemi Rafsanjani. This is the impression that Harald Dahle got from Shirazi in March 2004.
STATOIL'S BETRAYAL AND DOUBLE-CROSSINGS
In other words, if Statoil had a problem, any problem, - and as CEO of the company Olav Fjell would have known - he could easily have talked these matters over with Iran's powerful Minister of oil Mr. Bijan Zanganeh, but strangely enough he did not do that. The Ministry of Oil and the National Iranian Oil Company took this as a betrayal. Statoil had doubled crossed not only Tehran's powerful Minister of Oil Bijan Zanganeh, but also their own representative in Iran Mr. Harald Finnvik who knew nothing about the home offices bizarre under-the-table deals. And it quickly became the end for Statoil in Iran. The problems for Statoil in Iran only increased after that.
TEHERAN: STATOIL EMPLYEES ON THE OUTSIDE
Said during the INTSOK Gardermoen Airport Conference Center gathering in February 2002 which Harald Dahle-Sladek attended:
Director Arne Eriksen, Statoil,
"As you can see, I am very frustrated. The Iranians are polite towards us (in Tehran), but we have a distinct impression of being kept on the "outside" of things...and it is a question for how long this can go on before we have to pull out altogether."
Harald Dahle-Sladek, Petrofilm,
"I suggested to Statoil's Arne Eriksen (who was in Tehran) on the phone that I was willing to negotiate with the Iranians for a better understanding between the two sides.
But, after consulting with his people Eriksen came back and said that it was of no interest to them.
I found their decision remarkably devoid of initiative and empathy; they simply did not fathom how to treat their Iranian counterpart."
INTSOK - Norwegian Oil and Gas Partners, is a Norwegian organization owned jointly by the Ministry of Energy and Oil, The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and about 100 of Norways largest, medium sized and small industrial companies for the purpose of helping and guiding these companies into foreign countries, under the umbrella of Norway's politics and regulations. Between 2000 and 2003 the Export Council of Norway was also involved.
RESPONSIBILITY WAS HEAVIEST AT THE TOP
It was also incumbent of the Norwegian authorities to isolate the damage by acquitting the actual head of Statoil, Olav Fjell in order in this way, to quickly direct the responsibility downwards in the organi-zation and not upwards. The State acquitted itself, and the first to "be sanitized" was the Statoil CEO Olav Fjell himself.
Norway's catastrophic involvement in the Islamic Republic of Iran between 2000 and 2003 is a good example of what I will describe as a vertical system collapse. The Oslo-Tehran-Statoil collapse did not spread in a horizontal direction, but was shaped like a wedge with the tip down. The relationship of responsibility was clearly heaviest at the top, which is the opposite conclusion that was drawn by the collective Norwegian media elite at the time.
Financial Crime#2: GGS Norway
In violation of US Iran sanctions and of Article 25 of the International Criminal Court section Individual criminal responsibility, as well as in violation of the Office of Foreign Assets Control OFAC under the Department of Treasury, Global Geo Services GGS owner and CEO Mr. Ursin-Holm sold Iranian PC2000 seismic survey data in 2014 for NOK 50 million, USD 5.481.000.- to one undisclosed foreign oil company.
The PC2000 Seismic Survey Iran
Few was paid, money evaporated into thin air!
The people of Iran got nothing back from this project. The PC2000 was fraudulent from start to finish. Embezzlement of large sums, sub-contractors who was abused and services not paid for. A new chairman at GGS, Mr. Morten Andersen (deceased) received USD1.5million just to take the job (because nobody else wanted to cover for the scandal) followed by a disastrous police investigation that left everybody off the hook. And last but not least, PC2000 seismic survey maps traded for USD 5million at the new GGS spite US sanctions towards the Islamic Republic.

In the Aughtumn of 2003 CEO of the seismic survey company Global Geo Servics (GGS) Mr. Trond Kristoffersen and the owner of NOREX Group Mr. Kjell Gunnar Finstad were indicted by the Norwegian crime squad ØKOKRIM, the financial arm of the Police. Mr. Finstad quickly fled the country for Houston and Mr. Kristoffersen was kept under surveillance for a year. Further charges were evenually dropped, which is anstonishing to say the least!

Finstad signed contracts with Mostazafan & Janbazan, now Mostazafan Organization for Islamic revolution and National Iranian Oil company NIOC and Naseer Bonyad Construction Company for exploration of the Iranian coast, 2D survey. Finstad has dual citizenship from Norway and the United States.
Kjell Gunnar Finstad (born 4 October 1939) is a Norwegian business-man and a convicted fraudster. He is educated as a geologist and started his career in the petroleum industry. He has also been involved in real estate speculation in Norway. He became known when his investment company Norex Group went bankrupt with 820 million NOK in debts. The case was major news in Norway for several years.
The bankruptcy was described as one of the largest in Norwegian history. In 2010 he was convicted on multiple counts of fraud, including securities and accounting fraud, in connection with the bankruptcy. The case also led to an investigation of Ernst & Young over their accounting practices. Finstad formerly owned the Ekeberg restaurant in Oslo. In 2016 Norway's largest newspaper Aftenposten and The New York Times highlighted Finstad's use of offshore corporations in connection with the Panama Papers controversy.
Mr Kjell Gunnar Finstad holds 1 appointment at 1 active company, has resigned from 6 companies and held 2 appointments at 2 dissolved companies. Their longest current appointment spans 16 years, 8 months and 19 days at CONTINUUM GEO RESOURCES LIMITED

The PC2000 Seismic Survey and the PC2000 Seismic Survey Data Library as it was presented to the Public by the Fraudsters.
The Persian Gulf is located in the region with the largest petroleum potential in the world. The PC-2000 (Persian Carpet) is one of the largest Multi Client 2D surveys ever undertaken. PC 2000 covers the entire offshore Iran in the Persian Gulf and the Oman Sea. The PC 2000 has been collected in exclusive partnership with the National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC), and the data has so far been licensed to 18 oil and gas companies.
The PC 2000 seismic database covers the entire Iranian offshore with a 2x2 km seismic grid. These data will serve as the main tool in all future exploration offshore Iran. The library consists of a total of 90,700 line kilometers (LKm) of standard offshore library, 11,700 Lkm of shallow water as well as 3,600 Lkm of Transition Zone. In addition the library consists of 3,250 sq.km of 3D (Pseudo 3D) data. The Pseudo-3D projects was completed over structures with a very high potential i.e. the F and G structures located less than 100 km to the Northwest of South Pars, -the world’s largest gas/condensate field.
GGS has collected gravity data which covers substantial parts of the PC 2000 grid. The coverage is especially good for the Oman Sea, the strait of Hormuz, the Lavan Area, and in the shallow water parts of the Northwestern Gulf.
All gravity data has been collected using a-state-of-the-art “Chekan-am” gravity-meter. In addition to raw datasets, the following maps are supplied: bathymetry, Bouguer anomaly, high pass Bouguer anomaly with 100 km & 50 km cut off, and also free air anomaly. Many of the wells in the Persian Gulf are located in areas with steeply dipping strata. Additional seismic lines become especially important in tying such wells to the PC 2000 grid. GGS has collected 10 km well ties over most wells in the Persian Gulf.
GGS offers high quality interpretation of all PC 2000 data at low cost. Most of the data has been interpreted by senior staff at Robertson Research , with long experience in the Middle-East. The interpretation is supplied in digital format, easily imported into any interpretation software as well as maps at a 1:250.000 scale. GGS has used considerable resources in pointing out different play types in the PC 2000 area. The Atlas is considered a valuable, supplementary tool in offshore exploration. The atlas is presented on an area by area basis.
As a service to its clients GGS has compiled general well data into 6 separate databases. Key information includes: main tops in depth (time) + some logs when available. In co-operation with Enres International, GGS has done high resolution, high quality well correlation of wells offshore Iran using state-of-the-art digital techniques, analyzing and recognizing astronomically driven cyclicity.
In co-operation with Exploration Geosciences (UK), GGS has prepared a geological study of the Oman Sea based on the first 1900 km collected in the Oman Sea. As well as addressing the hydrocarbon potential of the Oman Sea, this study places the region in a global geological framework. Examples include “Stratigraphic Columns around the Gulf of Oman Area”, “Hydrocarbon Maturity windows”, “Gas Hydrates and DHI’s and Accretionary Margins (Analogues or One-offs)” and“Seismic Examples Montage”.
Together with Nigel Press Associates (UK) GGS has developed a satellite-based study of the surface of the Oman Sea, revealing hydrocarbon seeps not related to ship spill. Such seeps can contribute in identifying hydrocarbon generating strata on a regular basis and are valuable indicators that new or underexplored parts of offshore basins contain a mature source and hence help risk reduction at an early stage. Numerous undrilled structures and stratigraphic prospects have been found from preliminary interpretation of the PC 2000 seismic data.

Readout of Participation in the Virtual Ministerial with Home Affairs Ministers of the G6 Countries
Earlier today, U.S. Attorney General Merrick B. Garland met virtually with the Home Affairs Ministers of France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, and the United Kingdom to advance cooperation against transnational crime, terrorism, and malign foreign interference. During the constructive dialogue, leaders discussed enhancing international sharing of law enforcement information, including through INTERPOL, and also addressed particular threats such as online child sexual exploitation and abuse, and trafficking and smuggling of humans. The ministerial was the Attorney General’s first international engagement in office.
U.S. Attorney General Garland was joined by U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. The meeting was hosted and chaired by United Kingdom Home Secretary Priti Patel. Other G6 attendees included French Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin, German Interior Minister Horst Seehofer, Italian Interior Minister Luciana Lamorgese, Polish Interior Minister Mariusz Kamiński, Spanish Interior Minister Fernando Grande-Marlaska, EU Vice-President Margaritis Schinas, and EU Commissioner Ylva Johansson.

Before Christmas, German crematorium struggles with COVID-19 deaths
A coffin of a person who passed away due to coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is burned in the Meissen crematory amid the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic in Meissen, Germany, December 23, 2020.
MEISSEN, Germany — A German crematorium in the eastern state of Saxony, which has been hit hard by the second wave of the coronavirus pandemic, is struggling to keep up with the number of people who have died from COVID-19 just before Christmas.
“We are currently working 24 hours a day, from Monday to Sunday, without a break,” said Meissen crematorium manager Joerg Schaldach.
“We will of course have to keep on cremating and now the holidays are around the corner,” he said, adding special procedures were required for people who died from COVID-19.
“The coffins are sealed, the deceased are wrapped in accident-like bags, so there is barely any possibility of having contact with the virus,” said Schaldach.
The eastern German state of Saxony has reported the highest number of deaths per capita in Germany over the course of the pandemic, with around 57 in 100,000 people there having died.
Schaldach also said the crematorium at Meissen had space to store the bodies of the deceased. He hopes he will not have to use a building that has been arranged for emergencies and which could hold up to 2,000 bodies.
Germany reported a new coronavirus daily death toll high of 962 on Wednesday, bringing the total death toll to 27,968. The number of confirmed coronavirus cases jumped by 24,740 to 1,554,920, RKI data showed on Wednesday.
A Forsa poll showed on Wednesday that whereas the majority of Germans stick to coronavirus hygiene rules, most male supporters of the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) in eastern German states do not wear face masks when social distancing is not possible. Saxony is a stronghold for the AfD.
Europe's EU Covid-19
Crime Against Humanity
EU'S VON DER LEYEN WITH OTHERS MUST STAND TRIAL AT THE INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL COURT ICC
Ursula Von der Leyen: The European Commission's disaster President #1
Rejecting SPUTNIK V to the European population is a serious Criminal offence. High-level crime of the century disguises Europe's catastrophic vaccine shortage for what it is: A politically correct genocide. This is politically accepted genocide under the disguise and excuse of a criminal bureaucracy, in Norway as well as in the EU countries in line with the politically correct extermination of the Jews. The politicians have taken the entire European population for a rollercoaster ride which ends in the incinerators.
This is not about pressing "red buttons". This is politically accepted genocide under the guise and excuses of a criminal bureaucracy, in Norway as well as in the EU. In line with the extermination of the Jews. We are far past "pushing red buttons". Back then, in 1943, it was politically correct to push the Jews into the incinerators in Poland today it is politically correct to push people into incinerators from Bergamo to Oslo.
Article 7
Defines crimes against humanity as acts "committed as part of a widespread or systematic attack directed against any civilian population, with knowledge of the attack".
Article 8
Defines war crimes depending on whether an armed conflict is either international (which generally means it is fought between states) or non-international (which generally means that it is fought between non-state actors, such as rebel groups, or between a state and such non-state actors). In total there are 74 war crimes listed in article 8.
Geneva Conventions of 1949, which only apply to international conflicts,and serious violations of article 3 common to the Geneva Conventions of 1949, which apply to non-international conflicts.
ICC: Individual Criminal Responsibility
The Court has jurisdiction over natural persons. A person who commits a crime within the jurisdiction of the Court is individually responsible and liable for punishment in accordance with the Rome Statute.
1 In accordance with the Rome Statute, a person shall be criminally responsible and liable for punishment for a crime within the jurisdiction of the Court if that person: Commits such a crime, whether as an individual, jointly with another or through another person, regardless of whether that other person is criminally responsible;
2 Orders, solicits or induces the commission of such a crime which in fact occurs or is attempted; For the purpose of facilitating the commission of such a crime, aids, abets or otherwise assists in its commission or its attempted commission, including providing the means for its commission;
3 In any other way contributes to the commission or attempted commission of such a crime by a group of persons acting with a common purpose.
4 In respect of the crime of genocide, directly and publicly incites others to commit genocide; Attempts to commit such a crime by taking action that commences its execution by means of a substantial step, but the crime does not occur because of circumstances independent of the person's intentions.

VACCINE DISASTER
There is a giant disc-shaped red warning light hovering slowly over Europe these days! It’s been there for some time now since the outbreak of the Covid-19 virus. EU did little too late. Norway did nothing! At the moment Europe is sinking and breaking up in parts. There aren’t vaccines to the population because this Continent is governed by utter mediocre people.
CLICK: URSULA VON DER LEYEN IS PULVERIZED
EU vade in money, but have no vaccines! And Norway is the epitome of mediocracy and losing the Covid-19 war! The European vaccine disaster is here to stay for a long time, while the vaccination in the United States and in Great Britain is going full speed. EU Commission President Ursula Von der Leyen must take responsibility and go! Now!
Aristocracy
Heraldic of the French Legitimistes
The Definition of Aristocracy
The original meaning of the word aristocracy simply referred to 'the rule of the best'. Aristos, the Greek word for best, implied the ‘most fitting or best suited’, while kratos referred to rule or power. This early definition described only the characteristics of suitability and gover-nance, with no relation to class or wealth.
European Aristocracy
Adriaan de Lelie, the family of Jan van Loon, 1786
NORWAY'S MEDIOCRACY AND SOCIAL EQUALITY
Out of the State's vision of near-Communist social equality, an intel-lectual underclass has been created. Norway has a State-led policy of philosophy with direct anti-human traits. Fear of the Aristocracy - ruling by the best - and the elimination of the upper class in general, has inspired rhetorical absurdities wrapped in cuddly, meaningless talk. Filling this intellectual void gave way to the Norwegian mediocracy as it is shamefully displayed in today's dictatorship of the partitocracy. As well as among the people in general and the ever-richer green petro elite.
Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov Lenin preaches equality to the masses; 104 years after his birth, Prime Minister Erna Solberg of Norway does the same camouflaged as right-wing equality propaganda.
The Norwegian Mediocracy is a dominant class consisting of mediocre people trapped in a system in which mediocracy is rewarded. The utter lack of Covid-19 vaccines and hospital beds, as two examples, are serious warning signals and clear verifications of a downward spiraling trend. So is the disintegration of meaning in the spoken language.
The Norwegian way of creating dialogue and common ground is to desperately try to understand every word from its cognitive side detached from its empathic and cultural bearings. Followed by a swift minimization of what one has interpreted as have been said, and then grudgingly throw it back to the speaker as an unworthy nothing. Because in Norway you should neither be anything nor get confirmation that what you say is worth something. Out of the State's vision of near-communist social equality, an intellectual underclass has been created.
NORWAY-IRAN RELATIONS
Nowhere in the history of modern Norway
was its mediocracy more evident than with its titanic clash of civilizations with Iran. Here from my reflections on the matter.
The last meeting on Minister level between Norway and Iran took place in May 2003 on the 15th Executive Floor of the National Iranian Oil company NIOC. On the left side as #3 from left sits Iran’s Minister of Oil Bijan Zanganeh with his Norwegian counterpart Minister of Energy and Petroleum Einar Steensnes as #6 on the right side. Norway's eagerness to portray itself as the corrupt equality-country it is backfired and STATOIL's endeavors in the Islamic Republic ended abruptly. (C)2003 Harald Dahle
The Editor-in-chief:
Even before the plane with its Government officials and representatives of the petroleum-related industries had left the Norwegian air-space, Norway had in fact already lost its unique business opportunity in the Islamic republic of Iran. These fish eating latecomers had all arrived Teheran’s Mehrabad Airport from a country which, in a radical way, distances itself from piety and where spirituality does not have any important place in the daily lives of the people. And where the word "Islam" in their Nordic consciousness often is associated with terrorism and threats. The stage was now set for a humongous clash between two contradictory civilizations!
From the very outset it was the twisted Norwegian mindset, the whole chain of command in Oslo and it's ill prepared bureaucracy that faulted. Right from the Parliament down through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Energy and Oil, INTSOK and the industry, and the medium sized oil company Statoil whose ethical bearing were out of course. Their factual relations to Iran were all seriously lagging behind and bribery and corruption were only two unpleasant sides of a larger and more complex picture. Welcome to Norway's worst diplomatic, ethical and industrial catastrophe in modern times.

THE INSANITY OF NORWAY'S GREEN PETRO-ELITE!
The Norwegian leadership today lives in a technological dream world without ground contact with the Norwegian people's realistic ability to survive. At the outset of the Covid-19 pandemic, the Norwegian leadership could not offer respiratory mouth protections to its tiny population but was eager enough to purchase hugely expensive City properties from the British Crown.
At the present, Norway does only have a microscopic number of vaccines for its nervously waiting population. It could have done as England and Israel did in time: go directly to the manufacturers of Covid-19 vaccines and purchase there. But instead, Norway dragged its feet. Being the underdog, it still is - it chose instead to purchase vaccine through Sweden's EU membership. Norway's humiliating relationship with Sweden between 1319 and 1343, 1449 and 1459 and lastly between 1814 and 1905 did not ring any bells. National pride was and is nonexistent! Clearly, as everybody can see, it is better to be an underdog and sorry than to be prepared in advance and be safe and alive!
NORWAY: WHERE ARE THE VACCINES?
A NATIONAL EMERGENCY DISASTER IS UNFOLDING
In Norway only 2.51 per 100 inhabitants have been vaccinated, while England has 14.87 per 100 inhabitants. Norway has set a laughable 490.000 doses, England twenty millions with the first dose! Norway’s dictatorship of its partitocracy is fast sinking the country as you read. Imagine, you had trillions in the bank and no vaccines? Yes, it’s that insane!
There is a giant disc-shaped red warning light hovering slowly over Europe these days! It’s been there for some time now since the outbreak of the Covid-19 virus. EU did little too late. Norway did nothing! At the moment Europe is sinking and breaking up in parts. There aren’t vaccines to the population because this Continent is governed by utter mediocre people.

The European vaccine disaster is here to stay for a long time, while the vaccination in the United States and in Great Britain is going full speed. EU Commission President Ursula Von der Leyen must take responsibility and go! Now!
"Bergamo-like" Covid-19 Disaster Looming in Oslo.
Norway is going down: No vaccines to the Hospital doctors, nurses, and patients. No vaccines to the population. Infections are rising at an alarming rate every day. A national human disaster of unimaginable proportions is now unfolding.
1943 AND 2021: COPY AND PASTE
Norway's Authoritarian Acceptance of Genocide.
The idiot politicians who recently bought the most expensive city buildings in London from the Crown did not have face masks for its own population at the outbreak of the pandemic and continues not to have vaccines.
The arrogant and provocative narrative of the Norwegian Government and people in general towards Russia has abruptly silenced. At the moment the right-wing Government of Erna Solberg is occupied with a country crashing over the cliff down a bottomless pit. The idiot politicians who recently bought the most expensive city buildings in London from the Crown did not have face masks for its own population at the outbreak of the pandemic and continues not to have vaccines. Obviously, these same Norwegian morons have forgotten the names of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Arrogance brought Japan to its knees - will the same happen to Norway?
Off course, with and average IQ of less than 75 among these bread eating, mobile phone chatting climbers, we could expect nothing much, if anything at all! These are the people who, after having dropped American B61-12 thermonuclear precision gravity bombs over Russia will have to face another grim reality for War Crimes against Humanity. The Chinese are not the only modern terrorists, releasing a deadly, global pandemic.
In old Rome before the collapse of the Empire, Bread and Circus was the menu of the day, every day of the week. The people of Norway are lazy, not very alert and intelligent. I mean intelligent in an empathic direction. Towards the Russian people. As the 51st State of the United States, Scandinavia’s little poodle Norway wags it tail every time Washington demands it. But for now, Norway is over the cliff at the bottom of a deep pit for a long time. Have a good day folks!
NORWAY: THE RIGHT-WING GOVERNMENT OF PRIME MINISTER ERNA SOLBERG IS CRUMBLING
NOW AT A TIPPING POINT
NORWAY WITHOUT VACCINES AND HOSPITAL BEDS!
The right wing Government of Erna Solberg is cracking up in every corner due to catastrophic handling of the Corona virus crisis. Hospital beds for Corona patients are missing. A complete national emergency disaster is unfolding. The number of vaccines that has been intro-duced so far is on a laughable 7.5 percent. A humanitarian catastrophe never seen before in modern times is unfolding under a torrent of shameful rhetoric! Shameful is the word we also use about the Prime Minister's mediocre speech on Sunday 7.3.21.
One year of babbling, and no vaccines: Monica Mæland, Minister of Justics and Public Security, Prime Minister Erna Solberg and Minister of Health, Bent Høie during a coronavirus press conference.
A DISASTROUS VACCINE STRATEGY IS PRESENTET AS A FORMIDABLE SUCCESS.
The opposition led by Labor Party Jonas Gahr Støre accuses the Government of secrecy surrounding the Government’s negotiations and contracts with manufacturers of Corona vaccines. The opposition demands transparency, but so far Solberg has denied access and insight. Pressure is mounting day by day. With barely five hundred thousand doses set Norway faces an emergency disaster with hardly any hospital beds available for Covid-19 patients. The infection quotient is now at 1.3 meaning that the infection is rising dramatically day by day and the State has no vaccines to offer. Prime Minister Solberg has announced a speech to the country the coming Sunday at 6pm.
A NATIONAL EMERGENCY DISASTER IS UNFOLDING
In Norway only 2.51 per 100 inhabitants have been vaccinated, while England has 14.87 per 100 inhabitants. Norway has set a laughable 490.000 doses, England twenty millions with the first dose!

B-1B Lancers practicing dropping bombs on new terrain.
A US Air Force B-1B takes off from Bodø Air Station in Norway, March 8, 2021. US Air Force
US Air Force B-1B Lancer bombers that deployed to Norway in late February have already demonstrated their reach in the air around Europe, and this week they tested their ability to put bombs on target in new surroundings.
On March 8, a bomber conducted Joint Terminal Attack Controller training with US Navy SEALs, US Marines, and Norwegian soldiers near Setermoen in the Norwegian Arctic.
JTACs, as they're known, direct aircraft during close-air-support missions. For this training, US and Norwegian JTACs took position "on top of a mountain and quickly established communications" with the bomber to call in targets, a Marine Corps release said.
The exercise comes as NATO militaries have increased their focus on the European Arctic, conducting more ground, air, and naval operations there. Joint JTAC training "demonstrates our commitment to building interoperability across military services and NATO allies," Capt. Joe Roberts, a JTAC instructor, said in the release.
'A little bit different'
Norwegian soldiers and US Marines during Joint Terminal Attack Controller training in Setermoen, Norway, March 8, 2021. US Marine Corps/Lance Cpl. Patrick King.
US bombers deploy to Europe and train with Norwegian aircraft regularly, but the four B-1Bs that arrived in Norway on February 22 are the first US bombers to deploy there.
"There's always something that's just a little bit different" at a new airfield, Lt. Gen. Steven Basham, deputy commander of US Air Forces in Europe and Africa, said during a March 5 briefing.
Changing scenery is particularly important for close air support, as working with JTACs or special-operations forces on the ground "allows that sensor on the ground to connect with the shooter, and in this case the bombers, to be able to practice dropping weapons in different environments," Basham said.
"I can tell you, as a B-1 pilot, that not all terrain looks the same; it has a different look on radar," Basham added. "Working with different individuals, there are always the unique challenges of accent or just the ability to make sure that we understand exactly what we're doing."
Marines rotated through Norway for on-the-ground training - including familiarization with the language barrier - from 2017 to late 2020, when the Corps said that training would move to an "episodic" model.

The Marines' training focused on preparing for harsh Arctic conditions, which is also a goal of the B-1B deployment and of the JTAC training.
"Operating from Norway gives a very unique opportunity to operate in a cold-weather environment," Basham said.
During the JTAC exercise, the B-1B landed at Bodo Air Force Station in the Norwegian Arctic for "warm-pit refueling," in which the crew stays in the cockpit during refueling, allowing the bomber to get back in the air faster.
Operations like warm-pit refueling are central to the Air Force's Agile Combat Employment concept, which is meant to prepare aircraft and crews for more dispersed operations.
The bomber "does just fine in the cold weather," Basham said. "It's our great aviators and maintainers and support personnel who might not be as familiar with the rigors of the cold. Our Norwegian partners are helping us along in that."
The bomber circled the airfield for 45 minutes as "dense snow" was cleared so it could land, and for ground troops, Norway's Arctic "also poses many obstacles," including frostbite and mountainous terrain, "which can cause electronic communications issues," the Corps release said.
Sending a message
A B-1B bomber lands at Bodø Air Station for the first time, March 8, 2021. Norwegian Armed Forces US and NATO activity in the Arctic comes amid heightened tensions with Russia, which has the world's longest Arctic coastline and extensive economic interests there. Moscow has also increased its military activity in the Arctic.
The Norway deployment reflects several shifts in US strategy, including increased support for NATO in response to Russia's 2014 incursion in Ukraine, which has led to "a gradual increase of bombers deploying to the UK at higher tempo and flying farther east and north," Hans Kristensen, director of the Nuclear Information Project at the Federation of American Scientists, told Insider.
Another shift is in Air Force bomber operations overseas, moving away from longer deployments in one place and toward shorter, more frequent deployments at more bases, which in Europe "has resulted in bomber operations to Iceland and now Norway, locations where the US did not deploy bombers even during the Cold War," Kristensen said.
Russia has major military installations in the Arctic, where aerial attack has long been a major concern.
A B-1B bomber is refueled at Bodø Air Station, March 8, 2021. Norwegian Armed Forces. Moscow has already demonstrated its dismay about the B-1B deployment. On Friday, its Northern Fleet said carrier-based MiG-29K fighter jets had for the first time gone on "experimental combat duty" on the nearby Novaya Zemlya archipelago.
The Russians "seem to get the message" behind the increased US bomber deployments, Kristensen told Insider,
"but there is so far no indication that it is causing them to back down."
"It's a lot more controversial in Norway, where officials have been busy explaining that the operations should not be seen as an increased threat to Russia," Kristensen added.
Lt. Gen. Yngve Odlo, chief of the Norwegian Joint Headquarters, stressed that point during the March 5 briefing.
"The communication is quite clear that this is what it is and it's not an offensive operation at all," Odlo said. "It's normal military activity between two close allies. The only special thing is the new asset being deployed to Norway."
NORWAY
WORLD WAR 3 STARTS HERE:
THE VARDØ GLOBUS III RADAR NORWAY
The Hottest Place on Planet EarthThe hottest place on Earth is not North Korea, Iran, and Taiwan, but this Radar Installation already targeted for destruction by the Russian Air Force. The total obliviating of Globus II and Globus III "Space Fence" Radar installations on the tiny Vardø Island at the very tip of Northern Norway will be the first sign of a rapidly progressing World War III. We welcome U.S. Space Fence in Norway, but will it be to the best of the population who will be caught in the middle? GLOBUS 3 on Vardø Island will be one of the very first targets in a potential new conflict with Russia.
NORWAY: WHEN THE STATE TAKES UPON ITSELF THE ROLE AS CHURCH AND SPIRITUAL GUIDER
The most devastating decision for Norway in recent times was to harass and ultimately destroy the Catholic Church in the country. Introduce Protestantism and, through an iron-fisted church and Ministry of Education, impose bureaucratic directives on people. The state took on the role of both tax collector and spiritual guide. The following of this new arrangement has made Norway's population atheists and the country a cultural bracket; yes, an almost underdeveloped and norm-breaking society without much other values than money.
The Norwegian State - young as it is in European history, has a rude and free-spirited attitude when, on its own behalf, it imposes on the population its extremely troublesome opinions about what it believes is right and proper in ecclesiastical matters. This is the dictatorship of the partitocracy wrapped in gold-embroidered gloves and foggy talk. In front of an indifferent population that has been detached from the Mother Church almost by a kind of «military coup.” I am referring here to the commander of Akershus Fortress in Oslo, who in his time had the Catholic monastery church on Hovedøya, which is located deep in the Oslo fjord, demolished, and burned to the ground. The power saw the Catholic Church as a real threat and got rid of it in 1636 by order of the Danish king Christian the Fourth. This was a catastrophic mistake for Norway's further development as a nation.
SECURITY INCIDENT MANAGEMENT ANALYSIS SYSTEM SIMAS
Data mining from Government servers constitutes a serious crime and should be prosecuted. However, the United States' State Department should be careful not to exploit its Security Incident Management Analysis System, SIMAS in a dehumanizing way.
It is a fact that Norwegian police and intelligence operatives work hand-in-glove with the United States Embassy in Oslo mining a huge amount of personal data from ordinary Norwegian citizens. Thus, violating §90, the Spy paragraph, which states that "working for a foreign power is a serious crime and is punishable." Breaking the United Nations Human Rights and the Fundamental Charter of the European Union on personal protection is a serious crime too. Before criticizing codebreakers and journalists around the world, the United States should first scrutinize its own endeavors. You can't live crooked and think straight, weather you're a chauffeur or a Chief of State! The Law applies equally to everyone.
US SECRETARY OF STATE ACKNOWLEDGES DEFEAT OF MAXIMUM PRESSURE AGAINST IRAN
Stating that the policy of maximum pressure against Iran has failed, the US Secretary of State reiterated that if Tehran returns to the full implementation of its commitments to the UN Security Council, Washington will do the same.
THE "VECTOR" THREAT
THERE IS A HUGE HOLE IN NATO'S DEFENSE
When analyzing American ballistic missile capabilities and anti-aircraft missiles with long range ballistic capabilities, Russian rocket experts have found that the problem is that American rockets cannot intercept any ballistic missile in the mesosphere, that is the altitude between 35000m and 80000m. Therefore, Russia has focused on developing means of hypersonic cruise-flights for long distances, at precisely these different heights. The principle used by the US antiballistic shield is to send a rocket into space, and near the point of impact, calculate the trajectory of the ballistic missile.
The Boeing X-51 Wave Rider is an unmanned research scramjet aircraft for hypersonic flight at Mach 5 3,300 mph; 5,300 km/h, an altitude of 70,000 feet, 21,000 m.
American interceptor-missiles are operating as suborbital rockets with solid fuel. Once they are started, they cannot be stopped, and the traction cannot be adjusted. More importantly, the interceptor-missile will not comply with the ballistic missile target trajectory-calculations, avoidance maneuvers, and calculations regarding missile intercepting misses. There is a huge hole in NATO's defense! Today, NATO is at a crucial way-point, and the mem er countries must counter the vector-threat, if the alliance is not to become a paper tiger without claws! Stay focused and alert, folks! Fight terrorism in all its evil, and a particularly good day to you all.
The 5th Generation F35 Lightning II represents a new technology level, a completely new aggregation of weaponry, which mean a new engine, a new fuselage, a new cockpit, new weaponry, and new software support. When all these elements are more or less disconnected from each other, it’s called a 4th generation and in general this is the situation today. In a combat situation the 5th generation comprises the individual equipment of the F35 as part of a new type of air offensive, an overall information-tactical system, a single information battle space, communicating with satellites in real-time in synch with all other elements and devices developed some fifteen years ago and adopted in the F-22 “Raptor”.
Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman sits in the cockpit of the F-35 stealth fighter jet, as Chief of Staff of the IAF Brig. Gen. Tal Kelman stands over him, during an unveiling ceremony in Fort Worth, Texas, on June 22, 2016
Due to high cost, the decisions taken by the President and the Congress to purchases the F-22 “Raptor” has now been terminated, and thus the amount of these advanced planes are now quite limited. Also, some of the elements within the 5th Generation were not implemented in its entirety which was the real reason behind termination of this plane, I believe. And now it’s the F-35’s turn. It has been marred by high hardware and software overruns as well as high costs, which has delayed the production. All of the 100 F35’s which has been made till now have been recalled because they lack the upgrades. L-Band Radar from Chinese and Russian planes can pick up the F35’s stealth-like profile.
EUROPE'S NEW ARMY
Europe must take control over its own future and responsibili-ties. Merkel joins Macron for European Army. Deep schism between Europe and the United States and NATO cannot be trusted as guardian over tactical nuclear weapons on European soil. Must be controlled by Europe, not by the United States.
EUROHAWK
Angela Merkel has said EU leaders should one day consider “a real, true European army” shortly after Donald Trump ramped up a Twitter attack on Emmanuel Macron over the same idea. Speaking to the European parliament in Strasbourg, the German chancellor backed the bold step in European defense policy, as part of a speech extolling the need for EU cooperation in migration, climate change and counter-terrorism. “The times when we could rely on others is past,” she said.
To a mix of applause and jeers from Eurosceptic MEPs, she said: “We have to look at the vision of one day creating a real, true European army.” The chancellor said the idea would complement NATO but gave no details on when the ambitious idea could become reality. Her words echoed those of the French president, who in an interview said Europe needed to better defend itself.
PRESIDENT MACRON OF FRANCE
The Visionary European LeaderMacron, an ardent advocate of closer European integration, said a joint European Union military force was needed to wean Europe off American might, not least after Trump announced he was pulling out of a Cold War-era nuclear treaty. "We have to protect ourselves with respect to China, Russia and even the United States," he told Europe 1 broadcaster, suggesting for the first time that Europe might need to defend itself from America. The French president, who has enacted major defense spending hikes to bring France in line with NATO spending-targets, is spearheading the creation of a nine-country European rapid reaction force, independent from NATO.
HE NOGHREHKAR SHIRAZI
TEHRAN'S AMBASSADOR TO OSLO 2000-2004
Ambassador Nogrehkahr Shirazi leaves the Headquarter of the NIOC in Tehran after the last meeting on Minister level between Norway and Iran May 2003 Photo: Harald Dahle
Interviewed December 8, 2003 in the Iranian Embassy Oslo
Editor-in-Chief: Before you came to Oslo in 2000, you had been Ambassador to Vienna in Austria, right?
Ambassador Shirazi: Yes, I was Ambassador for two periods, eight years, and both of my children were born in Vienna. The time there was a happy time filled with good memories. We have three Iranian Ambassadors to Vienna. One at the International Atomic Energy Agency IAEA, one at the United Nations and one at the Embassy.
Editor-in-Chief: Ambassador Shirazi, regarding Oslo, why have the rules for dialogue between the Iranian Embassy and the Norwegian Government been changed. According to Mr. Rezvani, your Deputy Head of Mission, I understand that such an agreement recently has been taking place?
Ambassador Shirazi: The Norwegian Government wants that negotiations between the two sides shall not include third party, in other words only direct negotiations is possible.
Editor-in-Chief: Yes, but clearly the way dialogue has taken place up til now did function very satisfactory for both sides for many years, so why this sudden demand for a change?
Ambassador Shirazi: The other side did not see it that way. One wanted to be sure that information and point of views only reached the negotiating parties. We have no objections to that, although we found the new arrangement somewhat unnecessary and limiting. We believe that an open and free dialogue give the best result.
Editor-in-Chief: How do you view the situation for Iran at the present moment?
Ambassador Shirazi: I am deeply concerned.
Editor-in-Chief: Why is that?
Ambassador Shirazi: The threat of an attack from the Jewish State; the situation for the people of Palestine and the growing tensions between the United States and Iran. Alle these elements together create an atmosphere of uncertainty.
Editor-in-Chief: What about the Norway-Iran relations? They also seem a tad gloomy at the moment.
Ambassador Shirazi: The Nobel Peace Prize to Shirin Ebadi is viewed as a destabilizing factor between the two sides. We don't like the present development. It ads to a yearlong dissatisfaction between the Norwegian Foreign Department in Oslo and our own Foreign Ministry in Tehran. Oslo wanted to play on both sides of the street, have good contacts with opposition groups to Iran, and at the same time develop a good relationship with Tehran. Naturally, we are not very happy about this. But now we see an opportunity to mend old ties and develop strong relations, and we are eager to do just that.
Editor-in-Chief: We had a meeting on July 7, and on July 9 this year the Iranian Embassy, were we are sitting right now, was attacked by people hostile to the present regime. Could you please tell us what happened?
Ambassador Shirazi: They tried to break through the front door and almost succeeded in doing that. It was terrible, they shouted nasty words towards me. The police came and treated the mob as friends. One policeman put his arm around one of the angry demonstrators just as a father would do to his daughter. The protection of our Embassy was laughable, and we have filed a protest. Also, we have film of the whole break in. By now our front door has been much strengthened. The mood in the Embassy was gloomy and we seriously considered to call everything off. As you know, I have a weak heart and was brought to hospital for a short period.
Editor-in-Chief: On July 2, Your Excellency, Deputy Head of Mission Mr. Rezvani and myself had meeting were we discussed the negative response of the Norwegian Foreign Department to my work in the Islamic Republic. Would you care to make a comment on why there is such a negative attitude?
Ambassador Shirazi: They observe that you run faster than them and manage to get in on a high level, and this angers them enormously, it seems.
Editor-in-Chief: On November 19 last year, there was a dinner here in the Embassy were Deputy Foreign Minister Ali Ahani with two other representatives from the Foreign Ministry in Tehran was present, together with yourself Ambassador Shirazi, and Mr. Rezvani. I was also invited. My Vision of Iran Dialogue Films came up as a subject. Could you, Ambassador Shirazi be so kind and to tell us what kind of vision you see for the people of Iran?
Ambassador Shirazi: I hope that the relations between Norway and Iran will increase. Both people want peace and prosperity, and I seriously believe that Norway can contribute to a better situation for our people, especially in the oil and gas sector, but also in other areas such a food, agriculture and technology. This is the start of a marriage and there are lots of opportunities for both sides.
Editor-in-Chief: Thank you Ambassador Shirazi.
THE INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS OF THE PERSIAN GULF WRITTEN BY F. GREGORY GAUSE.
Harald Dahle, Mehdi Mirmoezi President National Iranian Oil Company NIOC
A PETROFILM.COM book review
F. Gregory Gause, III is the John H. Lindsey '44 Chair, professor of international affairs and head of the International Affairs Department at the Bush School of Government and Public Service, Texas A&M University.
He also is a non-resident senior fellow at the Brookings Doha Center. He is the author of three books and numerous articles on the politics of the Middle East, with a particular focus on the Arabian Peninsula and the Persian Gulf.
Gause was previously on the faculties of the University of Vermont, 1995-2014, and the Columbia University from 1987-1995, and was Fellow for Arab and Islamic Studies at the Council on Foreign Relations in New York (1993-1994). Below, Gause speaks at the Middle East Institute, 2013 Annual Conference Agenda. During the 2009-10 academic year he was Kuwait Foundation Visiting Professor of International Affairs at the Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University. In spring 2009 he was a Fulbright Scholar at the American University in Kuwait. In spring 2010 he was a research fellow at the King Faisal Center for Islamic Studies and Research in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
To the left is the book cover showing statues of Iraqi military pointing their finger accusingly towards Iran. "The International Relations of the Persian Gulf", written by distinguished professor F. Gregory Gause, III head of the International Affairs Department at the Bush School of Government and Public Service, Texas A&M University, is a book that will appeal to both laymen as well as scholars. It will appeal to the layman because it is well written and contains a lot of facts and it will be read by scholars, because what the book reveals is only ten percent of the huge undisclosed "iceberg of knowledge" that is needed to create such a brilliant gem of wisdom. The picture below shows the Iranian revolution in full swing; Khomeini is cheered by the crowd in Tehran.
Professor Gause takes the reader on a guided tour where he ex- plains the Persian Gulf as a security region; he continues to broaden the picture by explaining the emergence of the Gulf regional system from 1971-1978 ;the Iranian Revolution and the Iraq-Iran war. The reader will get detailed insight into the Gulf War and the following years, the impact of 9/11 and the Iraq War as well as thoughts about the future of the Persian Gulf. Professor Gause sums up his book by explaining American decision making with regards to the Iraq War and concludes with some "scratches on the surface" about war and alliances in the Persian Gulf.
The book's title "The International Relations of the Persian Gulf" seems to reveal that the author has knowingly chosen to emphasize the historic correct labeling of the area. Historically the Gulf is called the Persian Gulf, but as seen from the Arab side of the Gulf today it is always named the Arabian Gulf. Picture to the left, King Salman, Saudi Royal.
A minor detail perhaps, but one that brings together two completely different point of views with regards to this particular geographical and political area. The Gulf, that is all the water from Iraq in the North to the Oman Sea in the South, means different things to different people. Point of view and perspective are two guidelines when reading this book.
Undoubtedly being one of the sharpest written and thematically condensed literary works on the subject today, from a writer that I understand has also traveled extensively in the Gulf-area, the reader ought to bear in mind the revealing words of the cousin and son-in-law of the Islamic Prophet Muhammad, Ali Ibn-Abu-Talib, below.
He was the fourth Caliph of the Muslims: "He who has thousand friends has not a friend to spare." Ali ruled over the Rashidun Caliphate from 656AD to 661 AD. Anyone can look up in Google and see for himself how successful that "friendship based" Caliphate was.
Am I implying something here? Yes, in fact there has been Empires who on several times in the history have understood more about how to "govern" the Gulf area than what modern-day politicians have. The Ancient, Persian Sassanian culture, for instance, which lasted from 224BC till 636AD, covered both sides of the Gulf of what is today Oman, United Arabic Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Iraq, Syria, Turkey, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, Pakistan and a portion of Western India. Not to forget the birth of Islam 500AD. It stretched through Egypt, Libya and Algeria to Spain. Below, the ancient Sassanian empire.
Although our times are the most technical advanced in the history of mankind, our reasoning can sometimes be questioned; was it right to go to war on Iraq on totally falsified premises? Is it right and proper that Iran might very well suffer the same fate? And what country will be next in line? Shouldn't the United States start to make more friends in the region, including Iran, or will war-mongering remain as the highest expression of the Western Culture? Professor Gause is a non-resident senior fellow at the Brookings Doha Center in Qatar. Iran-Qatar relations refer to the bilateral relations between the Islamic Republic of Iran and the State of Qatar.
Iran has an embassy in Doha while Qatar has an embassy in Tehran. Relations between the two countries have been soured after Saudi Arabia severed ties with Iran following the January 2016 attack on the Saudi diplomatic mission in Tehran. Qatar and Iran have close ties. Both are members of OPEC, the Non-Aligned Movement and the Organization of Islamic Conference. But Tehran’s concession to Qatar is not infinite. Tehran watched as Qatar joined forces with NATO in toppling the Muammar Qadhafi regime in Libya. Iran was plainly unsettled by this new Western-Arab model for political-military intervention, in which Qatar played a prominent and enthusiastic role, but its criticism of Doha remained largely subtle. The simple reason for Iran holding back at that moment was Libya’s relative irrelevance to Tehran. Qadhafi’s rapprochement with the West since 2003 had created great distance between Tehran and Tripoli, and Iran had little to lose with Qadhafi’s departure. Bellow, Qatar’s Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al-Thani meets with Iran’s Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in 2009.
Unlike fellow GCC member states Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, Qatar generally refrains from criticizing Iran’s domestic and foreign activities. Qatar has also held several high-level meetings with Iranian officials to discuss security and economic agreements. The two countries have a close economic relationship, particularly in the oil and gas industries. A big portion of Qatar's Oil comes from a field that is related to Iran. They held joint ownership of the largest independent gas reservoir’s in the world, named "the North field" on the Qatar side, and "the South Pars field" on the Iranian side.
Qatar has 13% of the world’s total proven gas reserves. Qatar is producing 650 million cubic meters of gas per day from its section of the field, and Iran is producing 430 million cubic meters of gas from the field. In addition to ties in the oil and natural gas arena, Iran and Qatar also cooperate in the shipping sector. The Iranian community in Qatar, although large, is well integrated and has not posed a threat to the Iranian government. It accounts for some 30,000 people of the Iranian diaspora worldwide.
The book surprisingly enough does not concern itself with good or bad, right, or wrong, moral or immoral, lawful or not lawful. It is nowhere written that an historian cannot have an opinion about these subjects. The U.S. Military operated Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq, and the scandal that followed exposes a darker, dehumanizing side within the military system. I therefore view the sanitized absence and lack of initiative from author Gregory Gause to address at least some of these central issues as the book's most serious and weakest, structural point!
Although being an "academically correct" presentation, (no doubt about that) one tends to ask oneself during the reading of the book, where the author's empathy and humanistic bearing lies? It is the p e o p l e of the Middle East that we are interested in. And as such, one should avoid simply "theorizing some of them away" in an academic cloud of "politically correct" hybris. The picture bellow shows the United States Army abuse convictions in the Iraqi "Abu Graib" prison abuse scandal ordered by date.
The mistreatment of prisoners of war at Abu Graib was clearly in violation of "the Geneva Convention relative to the Treatment of Prisoners of War, U.N.T.S. 135" (entered into force October 21, 1959.)
To start with, let us look at Article 3, section a: "Each party of the conflict shall be bound to apply, as minimum, the following provisions: (Refrain from) violence to life and person, in particular murder of all kinds, mutilation, cruel treatment and torture." Section c: "Outrages upon personal dignity, in particular humiliating and degrading treatment."
Article 12: "Prisoners of War are in the hands of the enemy Power, but not of the individuals or military units who have captured them. Irrespective of the individual responsibilities that may exist, the Detaining Power is responsible for the treatment given to them."
Article 13: "Prisoners of war must at all times be humanly treated. Any unlawful act or omission by the Detaining Power causing death or seriously endangering the health of a prisoner of war in its custody is prohibited and will be regarded as a serious breach of the present Convention. In particular no prisoner of war may be subject to physical mutilation, or to medical or scientific experiment of any kind (...) Measures of reprisal against prisoners of war is prohibited."
The picture bellow to the right shows US military, private first class, Lynndie R. England in the process of dehumanizing one of the Abu Graib prisoner of war, while another prisoner, left, is wired to electrical current making a grotesque pose!
Many people today, this writer included, are of the opinion that the United States should, instead of criticizing some countries all the time and punish them with everlasting sanctions, look into its own, domestic problems first! In 1961 Erich Fromm, the German Jewish social psychologist who lived and worked as a psychologist, philosopher and writer in Mexico and in the United Sates, and later in his life in Locarno, Switzerland, published his thesis, "May man Prevail?
It is an Inquiry into the facts and fictions of Foreign Policy" in which he analyzed the Cold War. Fromm noted that "both countries, the United Sates and the Soviet Union, used the same projections to experience the other as an enemy and arguing for an end to this dangerous confrontation. Picture to the left shows Erich Fromm in 1971 working on a manuscript in his apartment in Locarno, Switzerland. Picture bellow shows American and Russian tanks barrel-to-barrel in Friedrichstrasse, west Berlin in East Germany between 4-9 June of November 1961. A potential extremely dangerous situation.
Which is in many ways analog to the situation in the Gulf region of today, and the ongoing escalating confrontation between NATO and Russia over Ukraine.
To be quite honest, I had expected from a man the caliber of Professor Gregory Gause to have included at least some of the same thoughts in his otherwise excellent book. Also, I would have preferred to read a bit more "temperament" towards the end. The book is well written, but academically "dry" and somewhat "lifeless". A much stronger emphasis on ethnic "values" would be desirable, and also open up a chapter dedicated to creating "dialog and common ground" in the area would cap the theme like a roof on a house.
A sharper searchlight from Gregory Gause part on "the international responsibility for" and pointing out a "call to action", to paraphrase President Barack Obama's Nobel lecture in Oslo in 2009 would have been desirable.
Understandably, there is a limit to how much material the author and the publisher deem relevant to put between two covers. Distinguished Professor Gregory Gausses five-star book, "The International Relations of the Persian Gulf", spite its flaws already mentioned, is highly recommendable reading.
The book can be bought on Amazon.com.
NORWAY
Norwegian Mediocracy
Out of the State's Vision of near-Communist social equality, an intellectual underclass has been created. Harald Dahle in Oslo.
Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov Lenin preaches equality to the masses; 104 years after his birth, Prime Minister Erna Solberg of Norway does the same camouflaged as right-wing equality-propaganda.
The Norwegian Mediocracy is a dominant class consisting of mediocre people trapped in a system in which mediocracy is rewarded. The utter lack of Covid-19 vaccines and hospital beds, as two examples, are serious warning signals and clear verifications of a downward spiraling trend. So is the disinte-gration of meaning in the spoken language.
Norway has a State-led policy of philosophy with direct antihuman traits. Fear of the Aristocracy - ruling by the best - and the elimination of the upper class in general, has inspired rhetorical absurdities wrapped in cuddly, meaningless talk. Filling this intellectual void gave way to the Norwegian mediocracy as it is shamefully displayed in today's dictatorship of the partitocracy. As well as among the people in general and the ever-richer green petro elite.
The Norwegian way of creating dialogue and common ground is to desperately try to understand every word from its cognitive side detached from its empathic and cultural bearings. Followed by a swift minimization of what one has interpreted as have been said, and then grudgingly throw it back to the speaker as an unworthy nothing. Because in Norway you shall neither be anything nor get confirmation that what you say is worth something. Out of the State's vision of near-communist social equality, an intellectual underclass has been created.
Nowhere in the history of modern Norway was its mediocracy more evident than with its titanic clash of civilizations with Iran between 2000 and 2004. Here from my reflections on the matter.
The last meeting on Minister level between Norway and Iran took place in May 2003 on the 15th Executive Floor of the National Iranian Oil company NIOC. On the left side as #3 from left sits Iran’s Minister of Oil Bijan Zanganeh with his Norwegian counterpart Minister of Energy and Petroleum Einar Steensnes as #6 on the right side. Norway's eagerness to portray itself as the corrupt equality-country it is backfired and STATOIL's endeavors in the Islamic Republic ended abruptly. Picture: (C)2003 Harald Dahle-Sladek
The Editor-in-chief:
Even before the plane with its Government officials and repre-sentatives of the petroleum-related industries had left the Norwegian airspace, Norway had in fact already lost its unique business opportunity in the Islamic republic of Iran. These fish eating latecomers had all arrived Teheran’s Mehrabad Airport from a country which, in a radical way, distances itself from piety and where spirituality does not have any important place in the daily lives of the people. And where the word "Islam" in their Nordic consciousness often is associated with terrorism and threats. The stage was now set for a humongous clash between two contradictory civilizations!
From the very outset it was the twisted Norwegian mindset, the whole chain of command in Oslo and it's ill prepared bureaucracy that faulted. Right from the Parliament down through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Energy and Oil, INTSOK and the industry, and the medium sized oil company Statoil whose ethical bearing were out of course. Their factual relations to Iran were all seriously lagging behind and bribery and corruption were only two unpleasant sides of a larger and more complex picture. Welcome to Norway's worst diplomatic, ethical and industrial catastrophe in modern times. (Read the full story under section: NORWAY: END GAME TEHRAN CEO OLAV FJELL)
MEDIOCRACY IN THE NORWEGIAN DAILY LIFE: BREAKDOWN OF MEANING IN SPOKEN LANGUAGE
By the Editor-in-chief
The Norwegian way of talking to another human being is done with the rude "you" (German: Du)
"You" has become a rhetorical free pass that allows the user to cross personal boundaries without paying the slightest consideration. In this way, the person can in the most obvious way step into another person's most personal areas and utilize this; right of use and property rights included. The form of accusation "you" seems to add to intimacy, but it is in its character completely superficial. One wants to give the impression of psychological closeness, and it can be used to manipulate the person being talked to.
Saying "you" is dehumanizing and without dignity. Lack of real dignity and respect are two factors that clarify Norwegians' relationship with each other. Superficial, sort of commitment wrapped in "you" is what characterizes the Norwegian, democratic society of today.
In the aristocratic society, on the other hand, everyone knew their rightful, social place. In a democratic society, everyone moves around at high speed while at the same time being extremely concerned with giving the impression of closeness through cuddly talk such as "Enjoy yourself!"
Up until the nineteen seventies, the exalted and respectful form of speech «DU» (Norwegian: De; German: Sie) was used in Norway, but then something happened; the Norwegian State intervened and set out to remove the respectful form «DU» (German: Sie), and instead introduced the disrespectful «you» (German: Du) form.
The "YOU" form was simply too exalted; the Norwegian State did not like it. And then all impressions of aristocracy and upper class were leveled off and replaced with mediocrity and unworthiness.
Now it was okay to be a bully dressed in a suit. The "you" form (German: Du) enabled a shift from the rhetorically exalted to the rhetorically absurd and has contributed greatly to the general dissolution of social norms.
IRAN: STARTS COVID-19 CAMPAIGN NOW
MANUFACTURES IT'S OWN "COVIRAN BARAKAT" VACCINE
Iran completed the first phase of human trial of the locally made coro-na virus vaccine Coviran Barakat. Phase one of clinical studies of Coviran Barakat vaccine has been completed.
The vaccine is 70% of the foreign vaccine price of producing the vaccine. Three countries have started preliminary talks with Iran to purchase the vaccine. Two other countries have also showed their interests. Iran will start talks in the coming days.
Iran launched Tuesday the first phase of a clinical trial of a vaccine developed in the Islamic Republic, the region's country hardest hit by the pandemic, state television reported. "The first vaccine against the coronavirus, developed by Iranian researchers, has been unveiled by injecting three people," the public broadcaster said.
The novel coronavirus has killed nearly 55,000 out of more than 1.2 million people infected in Iran, according to health ministry data. Iran has accused arch enemy the United States of hampering its access to vaccines through its tough sanctions regime. While food and medicine are technically exempt, international banks tend to refuse transactions involving Iran.
President Hassan Rouhani on Saturday said Washington had demanded that Tehran pay for the drugs through US banks and said he feared the United States would seize the money. State television on Tuesday broadcast images at the trial launch showing two men and one woman receiving injections in the presence of the health minister and the Iranian vice-president in charge of science and technology.
It said the vaccine project was funded by the state-run conglomerate whose president is appointed by the Iranian supreme leader, called the Execution of Imam Khomeini's Order or EIKO.
Iran made Covid-19 vaccine effective against the UK variant. Mass production will start from May. While the UK variant of the coronavirus has reached Iran, experts say, the Iranian vaccine is effective against the mutated virus. COVIRAN vaccine has proved safe for mass vaccination, and the next step is to test its efficacy. Experts say this will be made clear in the second phase of the human trial which will kickstart in almost a month.
MANOUCHEHR MOTTAKI
FOREIGN MINISTER IN PRESIDENT MAHMOUD AMEDINEJAD'S GOVERNMENT
Manouchehr Mottaki, Harald Dahle in the Military Society, Oslo
Dahle: - Your Excellency Mottaki, Iran is shying away from trading in US Dollars. Why is that?
Mottaki: - Central Bank Governor Valiollah Seif said last week that Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei had welcomed his suggestion of replacing the dollar with the euro in foreign trade, as the “dollar has no place in our transactions today”. I believe this has been a good decision by the Central Bank Governor.
Dahle: -I understand that Iran is relying on a basket of currencies, such as the Euro and the Yen.
Mottaki: -Tehran has been trying for years to move away from the dollar, although much of the country’s international trade is still conducted in dollars and ordinary Iranians use them for travel and savings.
Dahle: -I understand. Bank transactions involving the dollar are already difficult for Iran because legal risks make U.S. banks unwilling to do business with Tehran. Foreign firms can be exposed to sanctions if they do Iranian deals in dollars, even if the operations involve non-U.S. branches.
Mottaki: -France will start offering euro-denominated credits to Iranian buyers of its goods later this year to keep its trade out of reach of U.S. sanctions, the head of state-owned French investment bank Bpi-France said in February. The threat of U.S. sanctions has destabilized Iran’s foreign exchange market in recent month.
Dahle: -Khamenei on Wednesday blamed foreign enemies for the “recent issues in the currency market” and asked Iran’s intelligence services to defuse the plots against the Islamic Republic. Police spokesman Saeed Montazer al-Mahdi was also quoted by ISNA saying that 39 currency exchangers have been arrested “for disrupting the market” and 80 unlicensed currency exchange shops have been shut down in recent days.
THE COLLAPSE OF CHRISTIANITY IN WESTERN SOCIETIES AS BASIS FOR CRITICIZING RELIGION IN THE ISLAMIC REPUBLIC OF IRAN
Before we as less civilized and empathic people criticize religion and spirituality in the Islamic Republic of Iran today one should first explain and understand the collapse of Christianity as a main factor in the western societies.
The decline of Spirituality in the West in general, the weakening and the right out abolishment of the Christian faith in many places today, and the materialization and dehumanization process reflected in the general coldness between people, gives reason for great concern; in Norway, however, this is "business as usual", a stroke of death before the curtain fall. In the Age of conspicuous consumption, oil and gas, sexual "freedom" and decline of conservative values the Norwegian society is identified with an overwhelming absence of piety in combination with a cold, disdained and superfluous inter-human relations almost devoid of human dignity. Just as it was in the last days before the fall of the decadent, Roman Empire!
HE AMBASSADOR ALI AHANI
NORWAY WAS ONE OF THE LAST COUNTRIES IN EUROPE TO ESTABLISH GOOD AND SUSTAINABLE TIES WITH THE ISLAMIC REPUBLIC OF IRAN
Ali Ahani, Harald Dahle in the Foreign Ministry Tehran
It so happened, that during my dialogue with Dr. Ahani, the tendon curtain between Norway and Iran suddenly went up. I did not ask for it to happen. Dr. Ahani freely and unrestrained opened up the entire relationship between the two countries, which to put it mildly, was a basket full of rotten eggs. Here is a short version of what Dr. Ahani told me in that meeting in the Foreign Ministry in Tehran on April 7, 2002.
Picture: Ambassador to Europe and America, the present Ambassador to Paris, the second time, His Excellency Ali Ahani and Harald Dahle-Sladek in Dr. Ahani's office in the Foreign Ministry Tehran, April 2002. Dr. Ahani left, with Harald Dahle-Sladek, right in Ahani's office.
In 2000 Norway finally entered the Islamic Republic of Iran. Then, the Foreign Ministry in Tehran had waited for thirty years and longer wondering why Norway with its specialized deep-water technologies had not come and helped Iran to build the South Pars project as well as other onshore and offshore projects.
When I arrived the Foreign Department in Tehran in April 2002 the mood was somber, to say the least. Ambassador Ali Ahani was irritated. The Norwegian Foreign Department had for thirty years played on "both sides of the street" cultivating contacts with opposition groups to Iran, like the Mujahidin Kalk MEK. The attitude from the Norwegians had been cordial, but stiff and had not reflected the greatness in the Iranian culture and its people. Tehran was very hurt.
Dahle: -With regards to Norway and Iran relations Ambassador Ahani, I notice some slight irritation on your part, why is that?
Ali-Ahani: -In fact, the Islamic Republic of Iran and Norway have many opportunities. In addition to the economic and industrial cooperation we have oil and gas. I would like to emphasize the importance for us to finalize the oil and gas projects in the South along the Persian Gulf, as well as in the Caspian Sea. Norway and Iran are two important oil producing countries and can cooperate and coordination in the world oil market and stabilize oil prices, which would be in the interest of both oil producers and oil consumers.
Dahle: -You mentioned that the Norwegian Foreign Minister Jan Pettersen's visit to Tehran was a kind of watershed. Could you please explain that?
Ali-Ahani: In fact, in the past years, our relations lacked the sufficient momentum to further expand our relations. And in fact, compared to other countries in Europe, our relations with Norway were lagging behind. The visit of your Foreign Minister to Tehran shows the firm determination of your country for the expansion of the relations with Iran. And certainly, there is such a political will and enthusiasm on the part of the Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran!
Dahle: -Thank you Dr. Ahani.
SEYED MOHAMMAD HOSSEIN ADELI PhD
Deputy Foreign Minister for Economic Affairs
The success of the United States in Afghanistan also comes as the active support from Iran. A golden opportunity for Washington to better its relations with Teheran went out of the window!
This interview was conducted in Dr. Hussein Adeli's office in the Foreign Ministry in Tehran. It was the first of two meetings that Harald Dahle had with Dr. Adeli. The first was in April 2002, and the second meeting was held in May 2003.
During the interview made in April of 2002 it became quite clear to the Editor-in-Chief, that the rejection of the United Sates to appreciate what Iran had done for the country in Afghanistan, neither did not sit well with the upper echelon of the Islamic Republic of Iran, nor was it well received by the Deputy Foreign Minister for Economic Affairs. This would have been a Golden Opportunity for the United States to better the relations with Iran, but in wain. Washington was not ready to hand Tehran a firm handshake.
Dahle: -Tehran has sent an invitation to Washington for a meeting and better the relations between the two sides. I understand that the United States has rejected this initiative. How do you view the current relations with the U.S. after this disappointment?
Adeli: -Well, actually our relations with the West in general has improved a lot during the last, may be four, five years.
Dahle: -Yes.
Adeli: -Specially with the policies that have been followed by President Khatami, Dialogue among Civilization, the Rule of Law, the Principles of Civil Society, the elimination of tensions between Iran or other countries, the elimination of misunderstanding. All of these policies have been seriously followed by Iran in its Foreign Policy and has contributed to the relations with all countries except the United States. And with the West in general we have been able to exchange delegations on the level of Foreign Minister and head of Governments.
Dahle: -Aren't the operations of the United States in Afghanistan very much based on the early assistance from Iran?
Adeli: -But with the United States, it is unfortunately to see, that even developments in Afghanistan, which owes a lot to understanding and effective assistance from Iran, has not, I believe, been able to penetrate into the hearts or the minds of decision makers in the United States.
Dahle: -Without the help from Iran in Afghanistan, you s
ay that the United States would not have been where they are now?
Adeli: -I think that there is no doubt, even in the American eyes, that what we now see in the situation in Afghanistan owes a lot to Iranian assistance, Iranian understanding. The military success of the United States owes a lot to understanding and appreciation from Iran, and also the political process in Afghanistan owes the same thing.
Adeli: -And may be that was a very unique opportunity for the United Sates to reciprocate these kinds of understanding, and to seize and stop those kinds of policies that are pursued by them, in the past couple of decades. But apparently there is still not a very strong sign from that side.
Dahle: -Iran has friendly relations with many countries in the world, so why not also with the United States?
Adeli: -Off course, the general policy of Iran is to have friendly relations with every country in the world, including the United States, provided that this kind of relationship would be based on an equal footing, on a mutual beneficial sort of relationship. So, this is why I think that, as the policies of the United States, which are normally a unilateral policy, we hope that one time they would join the other countries of the West and developing countries and would join that kind of understanding of Iran. That the developments in the region would open their eyes, and that they would adopt a new policy towards our country!
Dahle: -Thank you Dr. Adeli.
EUROPEAN UNION
“I am deeply concerned at the growing use of sanctions, or the threat of sanctions, by the United States against European companies and interests. Where policy differences exist, the European Union is always open to dialogue. But this cannot take place against the threat of sanctions. European policies should be determined here in Europe, not by third countries."

THIS WEEK: FINANCIAL CRIME
Did the United States Lifting of Sanctions
between 2016 and 2018 really take place?
U.S. IRAN SANCTIONS
Dear readers and friends. Although, one can argue that the so-called lifting of US Sanctions between 2016 and 2018 really took place, there is reason to believe that when the Office of Foreign Assets Control OFAC takes a sharp and unpleasant look at foreign indi-viduals having done business with Iran and Iranian assets in that same period, it will arrive at the conclusion that the phrase “lifting of sanctions" does not mean a thing.
If your intentions are to knowingly circumvent US politics with Iran we think that is a very bad idea and it will have consequen-ces. So, stop hiding behind phrases like "lifting of sanctions" and "the US opens up for trade with the Islamic Republic of Iran." Because it never happened!
President Donald J Trump signed sanctions towards Iran into law
نامه ای از هارالد دله-اسلادک
سفارش قلب غمگین مریم
سفارش قلب غم انگیز مریم هشدار دهنده است - که مگر اینکه از گناهان خود توبه کنیم و به درگاه خدا برگردیم ، اکنون عذاب فاجعه باری که قبلاً ندیده باشد ، بر سر جهان خواهد افتاد. وضعیت دردناک امروز جهان در اندوه و هشدارهایی که مادر نور ما برای ما می فرستد منعکس می شود. مریم باکره.
پیام های خارق العاده ای که به هارالد داده شده است:
1969: "در مدت کوتاهی ، ادیان بزرگ یکی می شوند".
2002: "ما باید تلاش کنیم به جای درگیری و جنگ ، گفتگو و زمینه های مشترک ایجاد کنیم.
2008: "بشر در آستانه پرتگاهی وحشتناک بی انتها ایستاده است."
2011: "زمان آن است که زمان پایان یابد."
2018: "مریم مقدس تنها امید ماست."
مارس 2019
در کلیسای گاردامار دل سگورا ، آلیکانته ، اسپانیا
.
توسط هارالد دله-اسلادک - ترجمه شده از اسپانیایی
همه چیز به مصرف انسان تبدیل شده است. حتی کلیسا و آیین مقدس ، مسجد مقدس ، "منسجم" شده اند. ما قدرت مقدسي را كه پذيرفته ايم را پذيرفته ، راضي هستيم و شريك نيستيم. و در آن فاجعه بزرگ و عمیق دوران ما نهفته است. كلیسا نتوانسته است به قدرت مقدس مربوط به دریافت مقدسین اشاره و زیر خط بكشد.
با روشن نکردن این موضوع ، کلیسا مرتکب یک خطای عمیق و جدی می شود. راز و پیام در کلیسا کلمات عیسی و پیام به ما است که با رنگ های پاستلی مانند افسانه های جدا شده از واقعیت ، خواسته ها و چالش های روزمره نقاشی شده است. مشکلات و چالش های در حال رشد بشریت. بین آنچه کلیسا تبلیغ می کند و چالش هایی که ما با آن روبرو هستیم یک شکاف وجود دارد.
ما باید خیلی با هم مهربان باشیم ، از هم حمایت کنیم و دعا کنیم. ما کلیسا هستیم ، هیچ کس دیگری جز خود ما در جامعه که کلیسا است وجود ندارد. در اسپانیا شما یک کلیسای غنی با سنت های قوی دارید. کلیسای کاتولیک در نروژ تحت فشار شدید جامعه ای مسیحی و تا حدودی ضد انسانی است ، جایی که دولت نقش تبلیغ دگم های شبه مذهبی را بر عهده گرفته و به عنوان نماینده خدا بر روی زمین عمل می کند. این با قابل پیش بینی بودن کتاب مقدس در مورد زوال و آشفتگی آخر زمان سازگار است.
و دوباره هشدار می دهم که زمان ما بیانگر آخرین روزهای بی پروایی است که مردم با تلفن های همراه خود می دوند و بیشتر به فکر خم شدن سر کوچکشان به سمت صفحه ای کوچک و درخشان الکترونیکی هستند ، نه اینکه همان سر خم شده را برای خدا خالی کنند. . . در جهانی که خدا تقریباً وجود ندارد ، جایی که Pietet رفته است ، لطف از بین رفته است ، گرمای بین مردم از بین رفته است ، این همان چیزی است که اغلب می تواند باشد. به عبارت دیگر ، سقوط کامل نزدیک است. نور تاریک است و قدرت های شیطان آزاد شده و در همه جا قابل مشاهده است. دیدن خوب است ، زیرا او آماده دیدن است. عیسی گفت: "مبارک باش!" "
"سفارش قلب غمگین مریم" یک دستور غیر سنتی است که لزوما ریشه در یک صومعه ندارد ، بلکه در هر یک از ما ریشه دارد. همه ما به این نظم تعلق داریم ، زیرا همه ما به گونه ای همدست و مسئول هستیم که فراتر از معنای قانونی ، اخلاقی و روانی این کلمه است. وظیفه ماست ، در زمان گناه ، این پیشنهاد استثنایی آشتی با خدا را درک کنیم ، همانطور که ماری از طریق بسیاری از مردم در سراسر جهان به ما هشدار داد.
پیام ماری به گرابندال ، در شمال اسپانیا ، "هشدار ، معجزه بزرگ و مجازات ؛ دعا کنید و دیگران را وادار کنید که دعا کنند ، زیرا دنیا در آغاز نابودی است ، جایی که کاردینال ها ، اسقف ها و کشیش در راه هستند نابودی و بسیاری از کاتولیک ها را در پاییز با خود ببرید. "
هشداری که هارالد در کلیسای سنت دومنیک در اسلو مشاهده کرد (2003): "زمان آن است که قبل از پایان زمان باشد".
تنها با اتحاد در عشق به مسیح و استغفار می توان امیدوار بود و از نابودی جلوگیری کرد.
هارالد: "و بسیاری از افراد در آن لبه منحنی متحد بودند ، درست در جایی که می خواستند در یک تنگه بی انتها سقوط کنند که هرگز پایان نخواهد یافت." بلافاصله فهمیدم که این بشریت است که در آنجا با انکار خدا ایستاده است ، و مجازات آن به سختی قابل تصور نیست. "
این تصویر سه بعدی توسط هارالد در برنامه ای به نام "Terragen" ایجاد شده است. این شبیه تصویری است که او در کلیسا دریافت کرده است ، اما بدون مردم. هارالد این تصویر را در کلیسای سنت دومنیک دریافت می کند:
"
پیکان سفید نشان می دهد که هر کسی در نقطه بسیار لغزنده و منحنی ایستاده است ، کوه بلند مطمئناً استکبار زمان ما بود ، این سقوط در چاله ای بدون خدا خواهد بود ، که نماد خیانت نهایی است. خدایا ، پیام مشاهده بسیار نگران کننده بود. "
هشدار بزرگ!
"و تعداد زیادی از مردم در آن لبه منحنی متحد بودند ، درست در جایی که می خواستند در یک تنگه بی انتها سقوط کنند که هرگز پایان نخواهد یافت." بلافاصله فهمیدم که این بشریت است که در آنجا با انکار خدا ایستاده است ، و مجازات آن به سختی قابل تصور نیست.
توضیحات مهر "سفارش قلب غمگین مریم".
مهر و موم از چهار حلقه تشکیل شده است. نیمه بالایی نمایانگر الهی و خداست. قسمت پایین دایره شکسته نشان دهنده انسانیت امروز است. می بینیم که دایره در وسط ، در سمت چپ و راست به دو قسمت می شکند. نیمه پایینی دایره ، استکبارستیزی انسان زمان ما و رد خداست. دایره شماره دو است
کامل و نشان دهنده قدرت مقدس و متحد کننده از طریق مریم مقدس برای ما و هشدارهای او امروز به ما است.
حلقه سوم نشان دهنده پیشنهاد ماری برای تبدیل شدن ما به زمان پایان است. این پیشنهاد برای همیشه دوام ندارد. او مدتی آنجا است ، سپس دوباره ناپدید می شود. این سفارش در 4 سپتامبر 2018 تاسیس شد. علائم آلفا و امگا نشان می دهد که این مفهوم بین زمان شروع و زمان پایان است. این یک پیشنهاد محدود است.
دایره چهارم. دایره چهارم شامل سه چیز است. صلیب ، مری و سیارات خورشید ، زمین و ماه. این سه سیاره به طور مکرر در فصل های آخر زمان کتاب مقدس ذکر شده اند. "خورشید تاریک خواهد شد و ماه نور خود را از دست خواهد داد." "در آن روزها چنین گرفتاری بر روی زمین وجود خواهد داشت ..." خورشید در مکاشفه مریم به قره بندال ظاهر می شود. سولا دانست
مریم مرکز است و چهار حلقه را از طریق پیشنهاد منحصر به فرد خود به مردم آشتی با خدا حفظ می کند. همانطور که توضیح داده شد ، این پیشنهاد از نظر زمان محدود است و برای مدت کوتاهی در یک دوره خاص کار می کند. پس از آن پیشنهاد برای همیشه از بین خواهد رفت.

"ما زود به نمازخانه كوچك رفتیم ، همیشه یك شمع قرمز در نزدیك محراب روشن بود ، ما بشارت مقدس را دریافت كردیم ، این آغاز زندگی معنوی من بود." از چپ به راست ، خواهران ، خواهر تئودورا ، جانینا ، پنهان و خواهر سیگرید با صلیب.
من پنج سال خیلی بیمار بودم.
هر روز عصر ساعت شش و نیم در مراسم تشییع جنازه در کلیسای کوچک صومعه سنت دومینیک در اسلو شرکت می کردم. من در کلیسا تنها نشسته بودم و همانطور که گفتم از شدت قلبم مریض شده بودم. هر روز ، هفت روز در هفته ، به مدت پنج سال متوالی ، من قربانگاه محراب را دریافت می کردم. در مجموع 1825 روز برای شام وجود دارد. و برای 1825 بار ، حتی یک نفر به من نزدیک نشد ، حال من را نپرسید و نمی خواست به من کمک کند. من در آنجا در کلیسا مستقر شدم و دیدم که م comeمنان جلو می آیند و به طور جداگانه قدرت مقدس را می دهند ، مثل اینکه در یک سوپرمارکت روی دفتری بوده اند. و سپس آنها یکی یکی به خانه رفتند و در پایان مراسم دسته جمعی ، سپس کلیسا را ترک کردند.
و فکر کردم ، "در آنجا آنها می خواهند قدرت مقدس را بخورند ، اما به جای اینکه آن را با دیگران تقسیم کنند ، خود را حفظ می کنند." برای من این یک تجربه عمیق و فاجعه بار بود ، یک تجربه شخصی خیانت انسان در برابر اولین فرمان خدا ، همسایه خود را مانند خود دوست داشته باشید. من دیدم که کلیسایی که از زمان تعمید من در سال 1950 به آن تعلق داشتم ، از داخل کتک خوردند. در چنین سناریویی ، شیطان فضای آلبوم خوبی دارد و امروز نتیجه آن را در یک کلیسای فروریخته و زوال درونی مشاهده می کنیم.
این عکس نامه ای دست نویس از پدر ماری گابریل وانوفویل ، برادر نشان صومعه سنت دومیکوس ، به هارالد دله در سال 1968 نشان می دهد. این پاتر لوتز و پاتر وانوفویل بودند که صومعه Neuberggaten 15. را تأسیس کردند. وانوفویل به هارالد گفت: "ما آنقدر فقیر بودیم که فقط سه نوشیدنی نوشیدیم. یکی برای لوتز ، یکی برای من و یکی برای مهمان. "

ماری خود را در غم بزرگ خود برای ما نشان می دهد.
در 4 سپتامبر 2018 ، من از مقبره نجات دهنده ما در اسلو عبور کردم که به زیبایی با جاده های کوچک بین گورها و یک کلیسای کوچک ساخته شده است ، به سبک گوتیک با درختان سبز بلند در اطراف مانند یک پارک بزرگ به زبان انگلیسی منظره شده است. سپس به درب نمازخانه می روم و روی پله سنگی مقابل در اصلی می نشینم ، می ایستم و با رنگ سبز به اطراف شما نگاه می کنم. عکس زیر این مکان را با پله های سنگی رو به ورودی مشاهده کنید
گورستان وست اسلو در 4 سپتامبر 2018 ، جایی که هارالد روی پله های سنگی مقابل نمازخانه زیر نشست. هارالد: "بنابراین ، وقتی آنجا نشسته ام ، احساس یک احساس عمیق درد ، یک احساس نزدیکی شدید با مری می کنم. و من تصویری از دردی که مریم در قلب خود حمل می کند و وضعیت بدی که امروز در زمین داریم ، دریافت کردم و می فهمم که درد مریم مشکل ما در زمان ما است ، یعنی جدایی از خدا به معنای معنوی ، به معنای به عنوان یک تجربه زندگی می کند ، آنجا و سپس. "
در این تجربه ، درد ماریا آنقدر شدید ، آنقدر سنگین ، چنان غم انگیز است که این تجربه فقط مرا مجبور به یافتن راه حل یک طرفه می کند. یعنی ، این پیام غم و اندوه را با مشخص کردن آن با عمل علامت گذاری کنید. در پاسخ به این هشدار ، من "سفارش قلب غمگین مریم" را ایجاد کردم.
این مکانی است که هارالد پیام را در 4 سپتامبر 2018 برای ایجاد نشان قلب غمگین ماری ، گورستان اسلو وست ، از یک پارک زیبا با یک منطقه کلیسای گوتیک در وسط ، دریافت کرد. "هنگامی که مقابل کلیسای گوتیک نشسته بودم ، این فشار عظیم غم را احساس کردم ، در همان زمان بازتاب مشابهی از غم مریم را دیدم.
ادیان بزرگ به یک متحد می شوند.
از سال 1968 تا 2018 ، چندین "تصویر" را "دیدم" که با محتوای قوی به دست من رسید. از آنجا که این از تجربه عادی خارج است ، توصیف این به عنوان "تصاویر با محتوای بالا" نیز ممکن نیست. اما یک پدیده توسط خودم و دو نفر از دوستانم در نوامبر 1968 تجربه شد. بنابراین ما سه نفر بودیم که آن را با هم تجربه کردیم. و سه نفر با هم می توانند چنین اتفاقی را بهتر تأیید کنند.
ما سه نفر از دوستان بودیم و در اتاقی نشسته بودیم و در مورد ادیان مختلف ، افکار مختلف از این نظر صحبت می کردیم. هفده ساله بودیم ، هجده سال 1968. دور یک میز کوچک نشستیم. سپس می گویم ، در حالی که دو انگشت به سمت میز نشان داده شده و فاصله را نشان می دهم ، "فقط قبل از جمع شدن ادیان بزرگ زمان می برد". و همانطور که گفته شد ، "سالن پر شده از یک نیروی بزرگ و هوشمند ، یک نیروی ناشناخته از قدرت غیر قابل تصور.
غیرممکن است که از زبان خود برای توضیح چیزی کاملاً خارج از تجربه خود استفاده کنیم. نیرو آنقدر قوی بود و همانطور که گفتم باهوش بود که ناگهان بلند شدیم و مجبور شدیم به دیوار و آن چه نزدیک بود چسبیده و پاهایمان لرزید. روز بعد ، این واقعه قدرتمند را برای پدر هالوارد-ریبر مون در صومعه سنت دومنیک که وی در آن اقامت داشت ، بازگو کردم. وی پس از دو ساعت مشورت طولانی گفت: "این باید تأیید روح القدس باشد."
دوست هرالد: پدر دومنیکن ، برادر هالوارد ریبر-مون ، "این باید تأیید روح القدس باشد." اسقف اسلو کاتولیک اسلو ، اسقف جان ویلهلم گران ، که هارالد را در نوامبر 1977 به رادیو واتیکانا در رم معرفی کرد ، درست است. نامه اسقف گران ، در زیر.
در زیر نامه مقدماتی مورخ 12.10.1977 است که اسقف جان ویلهلم گران هنگام بازدید از روبرتو پوچی ، که مدیرکل رادیو واتیکان بود ، به هارالد داد. هارالد برای بزرگترین روزنامه نروژی Aftenposten مطالب زیادی از رم نوشت.
دیدار با مسلمانان
خدای مسیحی و خدای مسلمان یک شخص واحد هستند. سی و چهار سال بعد ، در آوریل 2002 ، من به دیدار محمدعلی ابطحی ، معاون رئیس جمهور رئیس جمهور محمد خاتمی رفتم. در آن زمان ، ابطحی رئیس مرکز ادیان جهانی واقع در تهران بود. من در ایران بودم تا به عنوان بخشی از یک پروژه بزرگ لرزه نگاری که از شمال خلیج فارس تا دریای عرب گسترش می یابد ، گفتگوی خوبی را در یک زمینه همدلی و معنوی ایجاد کنم.
سپس محمد ابطحی به من گفت: "خدای مسیحی و خدای اسلامی یکی هستند." در تهران ، تأیید خود را در مورد تجربه اسلو از نوامبر 1968 دریافت کردم. یک تأیید جدید و قدرتمند: زمان زیادی برای اتفاقی نمی ماند. عیسی حتماً در زمان حیات خود پیش بینی کرده بود: "گوسفندان دیگری نیز هستند ، آنها صدای من را می شنوند و گله می شوند." من از ژانویه 1998 تا مه 2003 پنج و نیم سال را در ایران گذراندم. این باید جالب باشد. برای اسپانیا که عنصر مهمی در فرهنگ اسلامی دارد.

فاحشه نروژی غیرقانونی
B61-12: جمعیت نروژ قادر به جذب تلافی جویی روسیه نخواهد بود
B61-12 که تحت F15E Strike Eagle سوار می شود. McDonnell Douglas F-15E Strike Eagle یک جنگنده ضربتی چندمنظوره در تمام آب و هوا است که از عقاب McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle گرفته شده است. F-15E در دهه 1980 برای جلوگیری از دوربرد و سرعت بالا بدون اتکا به هواپیماهای اسکورت یا جنگ الکترونیکی طراحی شده است.
اگر یک ملت تمام دنیا را بدست آورد اما هویت خود را از دست بدهد چه فایده ای دارد؟ یک ملت در ازای هویت خود چه چیزی می تواند بدهد؟ نیروهای خارجی و بخارهای هسته ای در خاک نروژ مجاز نیستند ، اما هر دو در اینجا هستند. این قانون به همان اندازه که برای انسان عادی نیز اعمال می شود ، برای دولت اعمال می شود!
دوستان و خوانندگان گرامی! زمانی در اواسط دهه 1950 بود که من در اردوگاه اردوگاه فرانسوی در یک مکان کوچک در اسلو به نام کامپن بزرگ شدم. این مکان مکانی خوب برای خانه های قدیمی ، طبقه کارگر ، یک مدرسه و یک کلیسا بود. دختران لباس دامن با طرح گل ، پسران با شلوار زیبا ، نه شلوار جین.
ما به پرچم ، کشورمان و قانون اساسی اعتقاد داشتیم. هر روز هفدهم ماه مه در روز ملی ، ما با هم آواز می خواندیم و آوازهای ملی گرایانه می خواندیم و سپس هات داگ و لیموناد داشتیم. جنگ پشت سر ما بود و آینده درخشان به نظر می رسید. در دهه 1950 ما به خیر عمومی برای همه ایمان داشتیم. اگرچه بیشتر ما از پس زمینه اقتصادی متوسطی برخوردار بودیم. اما ما چیزی به نام عزت در خودمان داشتیم. و ما اعتقاد داشتیم که این عزت می تواند ما را با خیال راحت از طریق آنچه که سر راه ما قرار دارد ، برساند.
با پیشرفت صنعت پتروشیمی محصولات جدیدی از جمله پلاستیک و پلی اورتان به بازار آمد. دختران دیگر دامن نمی پوشند اما شلوارهای اسپندکس تنگ پوست را نمی پوشند. از نظر آناتومیک ، واژن خود را نشان می دهد. مردان پیگیری کردند! در ذهنیت تغییری ایجاد شد. آنچه در دهه های 50 و 60 میلادی شنیده نشده بود ، نه تنها قابل قبول ، بلکه جریان اصلی شد. به طرز حیرت انگیزی تحریک آمیز و مبتذل بود.
سازمان پیمان آتلانتیک شمالی ، ناتو ، با در نظر گرفتن عزت ایجاد شد. برای محافظت از زندگی و ارزشهایی که ما در غرب به آنها پایبند هستیم. این یک سازمان قابل احترام با مردان و زنان محترم بود. با پیشرفت فناوری پیشرانه ، بمب و فناوری الکترونیکی ، محصولات جدیدی مانند جنگنده های هسته ای B61-12 و F-16 و F-35 به بازارها آمدند. استراتژیک اهداف خود را نشان می دهد. کشورها ترغیب شدند که این فن آوری های جدید را بپذیرند. و ، دوباره تغییری در ذهنیت ایجاد شد. آنچه در دهه های 50 و 60 میلادی شنیده نشده بود ، نه تنها قابل قبول ، بلکه جریان اصلی شد. به طرز تکان دهنده ای خطرناک و غیرقابل پیش بینی بودن آن هست.
نروژ از هیچ نظامی خارجی در خاک خود به پذیرش تفنگداران آمریکایی از پشت در عقب نرسید. به عنوان یک عملیات آزمایشی. این نیروگاه از هیچ هسته ای در خاک خود به درگیری کامل و هسته ای باز هم از طریق درب پشتی ، بدون اینکه حتی اجازه دهد مردم در این مورد رأی دهند ، رسید. یک نقض اخلاقی واضح ، و یک قدم دور از عزت.
تغییر در سیاست نروژ از یک رابطه دوجانبه دوستانه و قابل احترام با روسیه به موضعی تهاجمی و تحریک آمیز در اواسط دهه 1980 و به بعد نقص شخصیتی را که قبلاً در تاریخ این کشورها دیده نشده نشان می دهد.
دروغی در راهروهای قدرت شکوفا شد: زور بزنید و ادرار خود را آشکار کنید و یک زندگی ابدی را تضمین کنید! و این همان کاری است که نروژ انجام داد. با واشنگتن به رختخواب رفت و فاحشه شد. هرگز لحظه ای به عواقب واقعی جمعیت 5.4 میلیون نفری خود فکر نکنید ، اما فاحشه مانند آنها را در گوشه ای نقاشی کرد که اکنون نمی توانند از آن فرار کنند.
ما ایالات متحده آمریکا را تحسین می کنیم! چراغ راه جهان آزاد! و ما به عنوان نروژی به واشنگتن احترام می گذاریم. اما استدلال طرف نروژی اشتباه است. مأموریت نروژ در جهان ایجاد صلح و زمینه های مشترک است. همچنین ، با همسایه بزرگ خود روسیه. امروز!
آخرین خیانت این است که بنشینید و منتظر فرصتی بمانید ، و سپس هنگامی که آن را می رسد ، از آن فرصت استفاده کنید و حق را بدست آورید و آن حقیقت را بچرخانید و خم کنید تا آن را موردی حمایتی برای اهداف خود مانند حق قرار دهید. امروز دولت Solberg نروژ این کار را انجام می دهد. این یک مسئله
داستان جنایی ماه پایان بازی تهران
در سال 2000 نروژ سرانجام وارد جمهوری اسلامی ایران شد. سپس ، وزارت خارجه در
تهران 30 سال منتظر مانده بود و بیشتر از این تعجب می کرد که چرا نروژ با فناوری های تخصصی آب های عمیق خود نیامده و به ایران در توسعه پروژه پارس جنوبی و همچنین سایر پروژه های خارج از کشور در جمهوری اسلامی کمک نکرده است؟ .
حتی قبل از اینکه هواپیما با حضور مقامات دولتی و نمایندگان صنایع وابسته به نفت از فضای هوایی نروژ خارج شود ، نروژ در واقع فرصت بی نظیر تجاری خود را در جمهوری اسلامی ایران از دست داده بود. این ماهیان دیر خورده همه از کشوری وارد فرودگاه مهرآباد تهران شده اند که به روشی بنیادین از تقوا فاصله می گیرد و معنویت در زندگی روزمره مردم جایگاه مهمی ندارد. و آیا کلمه "اسلام" در آگاهی شمال اروپا آنها اغلب با تروریسم و تهدیدات همراه است. اکنون صحنه برای درگیری هومونگ بین دو تمدن متناقض فراهم شد!
از همان ابتدا این ذهنیت پیچیده نروژی بود ، کل سلسله مراتب فرماندهی در اسلو و بوروکراسی آماده نبوده و گناهکار بوده است. از پارلمان به پایین از طریق وزارت امور خارجه و وزارت انرژی و نفت ، INTSOK و صنعت و شرکت نفت متوسط Statoil که البته اخلاق اخلاقی آنها از بین رفته بود.
روابط واقعی و همدلی آنها با ایران همه به طور جدی عقب مانده بودند و رشوه و فساد فقط دو جنبه ناخوشایند از یک تصویر بزرگتر و پیچیده تر بود. به بدترین فاجعه دیپلماتیک ، اخلاقی و صنعتی نروژ در دوران مدرن خوش آمدید.
مردم ایران چیزی نبردند
نروژی ها در تهران به سرعت فقدان ویرانگر احساسات همدلی و تأكید بیش از حد بر تفكر شناختی به طور كلی و صحت دیپلماتیک به طور خاص را آشكار می كردند. در میان بزرگان نروژی در اسلو و تهران جمله "مردم ایران" در هیچ کجا شنیده نمی شد. با این حال ، از طرف ایرانی ، تمرکز بر مردم ایران پیش نیاز تجارت در کشور بود. بنابراین ، همانطور که خواهیم دید ، از همان ابتدا نروژ در یک دوره برخورد با جمهوری اسلامی بود. نروژ و استات اویل هیچ کاری برای مردم ایران انجام ندادند.
چگونه می توانید رشوه خود را پرداخت کنید
در مورد نروژ و استات اویل در ایران ، توافق نامه بین وزارت دادگستری و استات اویل شامل آن شخص مسئول جرم نبود. بنابراین ، وزارت دادگستری ایالات متحده و Norwaykokrim نروژی هر دو از تعهد خود ، برای کیفرخواست و پیگرد قانونی رئیس Statoil Olav Fjell ، کوتاهی کردند. این بدترین سیگنال ممکن را می دهد و این بسیار جدی است. اینکه شرکت متوسط نفتی نروژ Statoil بتواند از طریق رشوه خواری خود را بپردازد غیرقابل قبول است. و شرکت حقوقی مستقر در ایالات متحده Sulliwan & Cromwell به نمایندگی از Statoil کار عالی انجام داد که این امر را آسان کرد!
