Norway alleged to be violating UN Resolution on Terror

[NUKE]

I am learning that FOX news is biased and that the truth has been hidden from me.

Human Rights (SPUR) has forwarded to the UN Committee for Counter Terrorism a documented charge sheet against Norway for violations of the UN Resolution 1373 which deals with terrorism. This was lodged jointly by the World Alliance for Peace in Sri Lanka (WAPS) and SPUR, urging the Committee for Counter Terrorism to investigate the charges against Norway.

Both organizations have stated that Norway has failed in the peace process because it plays the dual and contradictory roles of a firefighter abroad and a pyromaniac at the home (Norway).

Read this article, it's very interesting in my opinion.

Interesting things makes life worth living. I'm glad you found some

I was sitting here thinking: why have I never heard of the Asian Tribune?  I looked at the site there was no details, I did a whois, nothing came up. I eventually did a trace route: it's hosted in that well known Asia country, Sweden.

Can't think why they'd have a thing about Norway.

Well, it is an internet site. Just because the name is "asiantribune.com" does not mean it is going to be based in Asia

For sure, but you'd think that "Striving for Asian solidarity" would be a lot easier if you actually did it in Asia, rather than Scandanavia. It would help even more if Asia had actually heard of you.

Maybe they should base themselves in free China.

Sure why not - and printing costs in Hong Kong are low enough that they could probably even afford to actually print a real newspaper now and again.

But basing themselves in Asia makes sense for them because as they say "Today's Asian Tribune is tomorrow's Asia", and as far as I know, the whole of Asia is not off to live in Sweden tomorrow.

Mainland China would provide a base of operations in which they could freely express all of their views, I'm sure. Maybe the people ofHong Kong will be as lucky as the people on the mainland someday.

Do you think every web magazine or news site should be printing in order to make them "real"?

I don't get what you find so unusual about a website named "asiantribune.com"

It's not unusual it's called "asiantribune.com". It's unusual there's no whois record. It's unusual that it's hosted in Sweden.

From an internet point of view, Sweden is one of the dumbest places to host a website for Asia: it's about as far away as you can possibly get, internet-wise. My trace goes through Japan, then the US, Denmark, then Sweden: slooooooooooow. As one might expect going across both the Pacific, the US, the Atlantic and half of Europe.

So yeah, a web-based news agency dedicated solely to Asia but hosted in Sweden is kinda weird.
