these aren’t the issue. Failure/refusal to assimilate to the culture of their new home is the problem.
Bugge,
I would absolutely agree with Hawespiper on this issue and we are finding exactly the same conflicts with our Muslim immigrants.
With respect, Google AI appears to be in disagreement with what you claim with the Norwegian population. Happy to copy and paste.
In fairness, he didn’t claim they were happily received by the locals. Just kind of a regurgitation of what the govt is forcing down their throat
NATO is a mutual defence treaty between countries, for mutual benefit, with each member state carrying the expenses for their own contributing defence forces.
Common “management expenses” are carried by an agreed formula dependent on GDP of each member nation. (renegotiated regularly)
So far USA has carried the “burden” of supplying the nuclear umbrella for all members, but that appears to be under review, as the present US administration is no longer seen as a reliable partner by the other members.
What does USA get out of this arrangement? Permission to have bases on other member state’s soil (incl. on Greenland).
This enable USA to stage attack on adversaries w/o having to cross large oceans. (But in consultation with other member nations)
The consequences of a US withdrawal from NATO will be that they don’t have many allies to draw on anymore and can NOT call Article 5 of the treaty if and when an attack on US soil happen again.(Remember 9/11?)
Yes that is a well known problem.
It happened in North America when European settlers took over land from the indigenous population as well:
It is a lot less voilent problem in today’s Europe.
Jack Nicholson is world famous and ppl from Greenland or PNG like him too.
I have learned a lot since joining in 2022 by reading lot of posts here from different users, so aping their techniques of argumentation and sources /links, literature they have provided , helps a lot when confronting delusional jerks.
Unfotunately there is nothing worth learning from you except maybe your Chihuahua yapping and increasing noise to signal ratioo.
Your utter nonsense amply demonstrates why u could not get CIA analyst placement or not become lieutenant Columbo but got instead canoe/kayak enginnering job what is quite fitting for howespipers specialising in sewage tanks cleaning .
Loose lips sink ships and since you are so fond of yapping it is quite surprising you know so much intimate detalis about the deletion of the other user account and my account and fyg it is not your business whom i am buddy with.

Antisemitic posts? exceptionaly this time i will use one of your techniques asking you to prove it , listing the post numbers containing antisemitic sentiments in order to verify if you understand what antisemitism is as your remark demonstrates you are clueless.
Regarding threats of sending me to penalty box above screen shows you the prsons entitled to such communication . However your arrogant cocky gung ho attitute and combative responces regarding this and IP info is tale telling .
How obout threesome in penalty box with you serving ?
Above for your guidance and perusal.
Problems experienced in Oz and in USA doesn’t necessarily mean that they have to be universal.
How well do either of you know the situation for immigrants in Norway?
FYI The majority are from other European countries (many from Ukraine lately) The majority come for work opportunities and some settle in.
What ever religion the immigrants belong to is not a major issue, but their ability to integrate is.
To avoid that any groups creates “ethnic ghettos” new refugees and asylum seekers are distribute all around the country. (not kept in “concertation camp”)
Bugge,
Clearly we don’t, but like you and every other contributor on these boards, we rely on internet search engines for remote information.
This is getting far away from the intent of this thread so shall elect not to pursue this line. It is for another time and something which is way outside my control.
I don’t blame the US bombing Iran on nobody but Trump. But I blame Trumps opponents, both Democrats & Republican “never-Trumpers” on neutering the institution of impeachment. Republicans are in charge now. But come November we’ll probably still have a very unpopular war, a market that doesn’t like it & voters who don’t like high energy prices. We might have a Democratically controlled House & Senate soon? But since they beat the concept of impeachment to death over fake Russia conclusion, a phone call with Zelenskky over a VP’s son who had absolutely no business working for an Ukrainian Government Controlled oil company & a protest where no buildings were burned or guns confiscated, no one cares about another Trump impeachment. The media can’t sell impeachment news anymore. The Democrats killed it. I do blame them for that because this Iranian War could have been a legitimate, 2 branches of Congress impeachable offense if it weren’t for that horrible TDS disease that demanded Trump be impeached over every speech he made or signature he put to paper. Thanks a lot Democrats.
Juxtaposition of below conversation with mumbo jumbo of some zealots here demonstates clearly the difference between man who are in the know and full of hot air , delusional fanatics musings of howespipers , who think they know everything thus demonstating they were misinformed.
Just watched Sal Mercogliano’s latest video where he speaks the kind of sense some Admirals and Generals should have taken heed of. Too late Pete Hegseth or Trump sacked them all.
He mentioned the position that US mariners found themselves in on US flag ships stuck in the Gulf. A sentiment missing from here. He more importantly laid bare what is in store in the immediate future when people want to buy heating oil to get through the winter.
Hell it would cost me $18.50 to drive my pickup (A Ford Ranger) 62 miles in California now. You can scale that up for a Ford 150 and the price will keep increasing. Please don’t tell me I can drive a Tesla it won’t tow a trailer with 5 to 6 steers onboard.
Want to know why the war goes on? From AP:
“A drone maker backed by President Donald Trump’s two oldest sons is trying to sell to Gulf countries while they are under attack by Iran and dependent on the U.S. military led by their father.
“The sales drive by Florida-based Powerus – which announced a deal last month to bring aboard Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. – positions the company to potentially benefit from a war that their father began.
“These countries are under enormous pressure to buy from the sons of the president so he will do what they want,” said Richard Painter, a former chief White House ethics lawyer under President George W. Bush. “This is going to be the first family of a president to make a lot of money off war — a war he didn’t get the consent of Congress for.” …
It’s interesting being alive during the beginning of the end of American hegemony. the US will choke on it’s military spending and over reach. But for now the US is number one in military spending and in a couple of other areas. In most areas though? Not so much so.. the list hasn’t been updated since 2004 and likely would show a few more declines in world standing. Particularly in healthcare, education and other quality of life issue that affect the non-wealthy.
Words fail me………
Hopefully there have been enough crumbs, more like loaves of bread, that a prosecutor can follow to find those those associated with Trump ,including the man himself,who have profited from insider trading. From my perspective it should be a slam dunk. One Wall Street trader was mentioned by name by Trump having made a lot of money.
Under the Westminster system any sniff of association with insider trading would have any minister leave Parliament at a speed that would make the Artemis rocket look positively pedestrian .
Under the US system the prosecutors, SEC head and indeed the Attorney General of the country are appointed by the president. He demands loyalty before the appointment is made so I wouldn’t expect much. EVEN if they were prosecuted and found guilty the president can pardon them, he can even preemptively pardon them before leaving office. So I don’t expect much
What’s the evidence so far?
That’s his job, I would have thought. Where’s the evidence he had inside trader knowledge?
Will there be an equal emphasis on the magic $millions that suddenly grew in the accounts of Nancy Pelosi, AOC, and other Democratic Party notables?
Any suggestion that Trump makes money from his insider position should be contrasted with his companies being managed at arms length during his term and his not drawing his salary. Both cannot be true. Do you really think he’s that stupid to risk his presidency on insider trading? I don’t.
Wow! Talk about Trump induced dementia!
I am confused
trump says to the world by oil from us.
It is known that we are the one of the largest refiners of jet fuel in the world.
with all this oil why am i paying 131 dollars for 32 gallons of diesel
Stupidity, dementia, and common old evil can’t be denied but knowledge that he has so distorted the government that he is immune to prosecution for criminal actions at any level has removed all barriers. Whataboutism is not an excuse or defense for treason, sedition, pedophilia, insider trading, extortion, crimes against humanity, simple abuse of power, or war crimes.
