Interestinf to see that a couple of Trump's picks are "Norwegians."

Here you get to know the new U.S. Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, who has Trønder blood in his veins.

(Trøndelag is my home region in Norway)

His great-great-grandparents, John Pedersen Hegseth and Anne Olsdatter Hegseth, moved to Minnesota in the mid-1800s.

Pete Hegseth himself has served as an infantry officer in Afghanistan and Iraq.

He was awarded two Bronze Star medals, typically given for heroism or meritorious service in a combat zone.

In the interview, he discusses how the left reformed public schools in the U.S., working to remove religion to make people more loyal to the government and believe in socialism.

He simply says that schools replaced faith in God with worship of the state.

Seems like a tough guy with a healthy dose of anti-state thinking.

In other words, a good old-fashioned Trønder 😁

Israeli servant. Not surprising as most in Trumps new picks are devoted to Israel. I believe it's tragic turn for Palestine, Gaza and region as whole.

Political Stance:

Hegseth’s political views align with strong support for Israel. He has criticized the two-state solution as “effectively dead” and has advocated for policies favoring Israel’s security and sovereignty.

Which I don't like (supporting power is not the old fashioned Trønder way)

Zionists recent take over and domination is scary and mind blowing. Gaza is such a display of cruelty and total racism, dehumanization and disregard for human life/non jewish life/. It's absolutely devastating.

Agreed

✊🏼

I still haven't figured out how to cope with this and not go crazy. I do online what I can but I am convinced that it won't change anything until they have money printer going brrrr for their wars. Only switching to economy where money supply and distribution is not controlled by humans but by protocol like Bitcoin can change the world. I hope to live to the day I can witness how power slips out of the hands of all this political scammers. Question is how many of us want this.

It's a process, and it's a war of ideas we are fighting. It helps not to generalize. If you are able to see through what many can't, people who blame peoples for their governments' actions, that helps. I don't have any bad feelings against anyone for their race or religious beliefs, only for their harmful actions. But I do know that I'm obliged to fight for liberty, and that I must understand who's just pieces on the chess board, who are being moved around by others.

Agreed. With Israel the problem is that there are many sources indicating that it's not only the problem of their government as for example I believe to be the case of US for example but it's a mental disease rooted deeply in their society. It sadly makes sense since the whole Israeli entity is build on ethnic and religious supremacy and colonial settlements. There is countless testimonies coming straight from Israelis themselves. This religious fanaticism was strictly attributed to Muslim world and now turns out to be huge element of Zionism and Israel. That is extremely scary and complicates things greatly.
