	Wikipedia: Norwegian resistance movement
		During World War II the Norwegian resistance movement (both civilian resistance and some pockets of military resistance that did not surrender in 1940) remained very active throughout the war.
		Norwegian resistance kept many German divisions tied down in occupation duty and Norwegian spotters led to the destruction of numerous German warships.
		The Norwegian resistance also smuggled people in and out of Norway during the war and also managed to snatch the world's supply of heavy water and also destroy a heavy water plant, not so much preventing the Germans from developing an atomic bomb as helping the United States to do so themselves.

	How do you say 'globalize resistance' in Urdu? - by Eric Lee [LabourStart]
		One sees the slogan 'globalise resistance' more and more these days, and yet the reality is that the labour movement and left continues to use many of the old techniques and technologies which so colosally failed to 'globalize resistance' in the previous century.
		One leading figure in the global labour movement told me that, actually, his organisation was pubishing material in too many languages already and was hoping to cut the number of languages down.
		To show that this is not a pipe-dream, but is the precondition for actually 'globalising resistance' and building a new international movement against capitalism, we mentioned on the LabourStart website in mid-January this year that, well, it would be nice to appear in more languages than English.

		The Norwegian history of censorship of books from the middle of the 16th until the middle of the 20th century has been thoroughly documented in "Confiscated and suppressed publications" (Original Norwegian language title: "Beslaglagte og supprimerte skrifter") by Arthur Thuesen, published in Oslo 1960.
		The Norwegian post World War II measures regarding surveillance and national security, Norway's membership in NATO (1948), the pending threat of a press censorship act and the 1950 controversial Alert Bill, authorizing Government to act on threats to national security, all became central issues in heated freedom of expression-debates in the late 1940s.
		When in 1996, a Norwegian Governmental Commission on freedom of expression was appointed by Royal Decree, the appointment was warmly welcomed, not least by the professional artist, author and press organisations and the NGO-community.

		The relationship between Quisling and Terboven was tense, although Terboven, presumably seeing an advantage in having a Norwegian in a position of power to reduce resentment in the population, named Quisling to the post of "Minister President" (as opposed to Prime Minister) in 1942, a position the self-appointed "Führer" assumed in 1943, on February 1.
		Vidkun Quisling stayed in power until he was arrested May 9 1945 in a mansion on Bygdøy in Oslo which he called Gimle after the place in Norse mythology where the survivors of Ragnarok were to live.
		In later days these sentences have been controversial, since the capital punishment was reintroduced to the Norwegian legal system during the end of the war, by the exile government, to handle the post war trials.
