The Israeli invasion I have written nine books, with the first one standing out. The Long Way Home was an account of my own experiences after becoming involved in the events surrounding the Israeli invasion of Lebanon in ’82. I came home as a broken 20-year-old and had already developed severe PTSD. We saw a …
Today I am going to write a short blog post about trust. Of the kind “I trust my fellow man” trust. Sometimes coincidences fall into our daily lives. I am above average interested in philosophy and read a lot of such material whereever I come across it. Anyone who follows my blog posts (and believe …
The first casualties of war “The truth is the first casualty of war,” it is said. This is likely true. Its second casualties are the soldiers who go out to defend the politicians’ “truths.” And Norway is no exception in this regard.

(Or how to not by things all the time) The combination of two things I read lately makes me write this article today. Yesterday I learned about minimalism. As a result, in a familiar internet style, (googling) I ended up watching the documentary The minimalist: Less is now. A documentary that tell the story about …
a friend you wished you had met earlier. “Only in the trenches during the artillery fire had I come so close to other people. Today’s blog is very personal. It will be about a man who is no longer with us, but who left solid imprints before he died. I do not …
