    I think Quisling was a European hero,he wouldnt have let Norway become a destination of third world asylum seekers like the modern day Norwegian politicians......who are real traitors.

    The British also thought highly of him and awarded Quisling the order of the British empire for his outstanding humanitarian work in the Ukraine.

    Fair enough, but after his reaction to Breivik, you can understand why I viewed your posting Quisling as deliberate provocation.

    I myself have a more nuanced view of Quisling; I consider him, above all, to be somewhat power-hungry and not especially good at his job, but at the same time he wasn't the stone-cold traitor he is portrayed as being (any more than Benedict Arnold was). He's interesting, without a doubt, but I think the title of "hero" is being used more than a bit lightly when it is applied to him.

    I think he had the interests of the Norwegian people as his number one priority....unlike the rabble that governs today.

    Compared to almost any government in Europe, Quisling is a far better leader. However, that's not saying much considering the present state of Europe. I should say, in fact, that it almost demeans Quisling to say such a thing. I do not think he had Norway 100% in his heart all the time; frankly I think Vidkun Quisling cared a great deal about Vidkun Quisling, and it shows.

    At any rate, I'm surprised to see so many faces from the 20th century in this thread. Surely the best times for European culture were long before then.

    He was a "stone cold traitor", which is why he became the most hated man in Norway and his very name is forever linked to the word "treason". As was proper in a military court, was to have him shot for his despicable treason.

    Wrong, you little fake "Englishman". You and your little fascist friends may be masturbating to colour films from the Third Reich, but that doesn't make any of the propaganda from your NS idols anymore true. Quisling was a traitor to my people, pure and simple, and no colonial living in an African hellhole will change that.

    Didn't I tell you to go have a drink and cool off a bit? You're going to build up your blood-pressure again and Norway will have lost yet another ageing relic of the Cold War. Besides, if you can't step back and analyse the man objectively you're not living up to your own standards very well. For once, I think Aces is actually being level-headed and serious. I, for one, intend to savour it.

    Quisling was Hitler's little puppet bitch, nothing more. He was a miserable failure and a traitor to every Norwegian, which is why we killed him. You can't be a traitor anymore with a bullet in your brain.

    The sad thing is, that still makes him better than the present government of Norway and the majority of other European countries. I feel that this is the material point you are consistently missing.
