Just an armchair chieftain trying to make sense of world politics and conflicts. 100% pro-Ukraine, 100% pro-democracy. Born and raised in Sweden. Exported to Canada. Lived about half my life in Canada. I love both countries. The profile picture is a replica of a Viking helmet. And no, the Vikings didn't have horns on their helmets. That was introduced in Wagner's opera The Ring of the Nibelung. The header picture is of the Viking castle in Trelleborg (also called Trelleborgen).
