..I guess I fucked up that quiet part by calling a news-shark when I heard this sorry Colonel talk on the radio......perils of being partially knowledgeable and outspoken... ;-)
..you may want to learn why Norw. clandestine organizations and operations quite often, are compared to onions, there's lots of layers and those who try peel any, usually find reasons for tears.
1. "Denial", used to great effect by former US President
Richard Nixon during the early phase of "Watergate", Swedens former deputy
prime minister Mona Sahlin during the early phase of her "mismanagement"
of her monetary affairs and the Brundtland Cabinet as found below, before
"investigation" took place...Bill Clinton failed here speaking of
"that" instead of the more honorable "this" woman.
2. "Delaying", used to great effect by former US President Richard
Nixon during the median phase of "Watergate", Swedens former deputy prime
minister Mona Sahlin during the median phase of her "mismanagement" of
her monetary affairs and the Brundtland Cabinet as found below, during
the "investigation"...
3. "Crying", used to great effect by former US President Richard
Nixon during the final phase of "Watergate", Swedens former deputy prime
minister Mona Sahlin during the final phase of her "mismanagement" of her
monetary affairs, former Norges Bank (National Bank of Norway) CEO Tormod
Moland, appointed by the Brundtland cabinet (we do get some fish
;-)) after the "investigation" proves itself an investigation
or vice versa...
4. "Lying", a more sophisticated and subtle way of press quenching
by discrediting, for example investigative journalism, through credible
disinformation. Typically, such input is typically slightly outside the
publishing journalist's true area of knowledge and, preferably, well inside
his appearant competence, and when published as his findings, the disinformation
will erode away the journalist's professional credibility.
5. "Dyeing", utilize the general publics feeling of living
in a society of Justice, and takes advantage of some socially embarrasing
flaw, like mental problems, abnormal lifestyle, drug abuse or crime, on
the part of the investigative journalist or other opponent, to erode his
professional credibility. Where absent, indications of such flaws
may also be arranged or edited. Complaints of such treatment, augment
its effect. ANorwegian Specialty, according to the Lund Report and
sources. The Republicans failed here, because fornication
is not that embarrasing...
6. "Flying", an equally more sophisticated and subtle way
of press quenching by discrediting, for example investigative journalism,
through gradually less credible disinformation. Such input starts
off well inside common belief and is thoroughly documented
and proven, before easing out towards the fringes of knowledge from
science and technology, finally winding up as fiction.
In the final phase the type 5 origin sacrifises his credibility to
protect his client from nosy and initially noisy, but then gradually less
noisy news-sharks. Quite effective. Sample
link ;-). ;-7
..the only information I find credible there, is someone found reason to launch a number of "cover-up" stories, there may be a mutual interest between the "white man", the "Religious Right", EUropeans and whoever launched these stories, with an edge towards muslims, asians, africans, arabs, russians and jews, and more surprisingly, not at least in part since the Suez Canal Crisis, the yankees...
and finally:
7. "Bailing out *just in time*", used to great effect by former Norw. Prime Minister, Mrs Gro Harlem Brundtland, at 1000 Norw. time on Oct 23 1996, by announcing her Resignation of Office on the same day she was due to answer to Stortinget (the Norw. Parliament), an (evil?) question regarding the Trade Treaty with Indonesia of 1991, in which the Norwegian Translation of the Treaty deviates from the Indonesian and the Legally Binding English Original Treaty Document, by not including the Indonesian and Treaty Legally Binding Definition of Indonesia, by which Norway Officially Acknowledge as Legal, the Indonesian Annexation of East-Timor. 8-7
Parliament Member Erling Folkvord wanted the Prime Minister's Official
Opinion on this Acknowledgement in light of Norwegian and International
Law.
Candidates to the post of Secretary General of the UN should not put
themselves such embarrasment, however it appears the lack of
professionalism on the part of Norw. media and her exquisit
career management skills saved her career...
