Another interesting tidbit I caught on TV: when the news reported that the US was disappointed that the Chancellor wholly countered Obama's outreach to the Islamic world, the Chancellor's office stated that Attland is abiding by its mysterious agreement with the US. According to the agreement, Attland is assured of no political strings attached to its unlimited preferred trading status.
The treaty also provides for the assurance the USA gets in unconditional and discretionary support from Attland, discussed when needed according to a specific political situation, and agreed by on executive level in both countries. According to the agreement, Attland is also to provide any strategic, tactical and other military assistance which, at least, provide for a backyard defense while the US military is deployed overseas.

The (ghost) fjord that was
This fjord on the southern shore of the western half of the Northern Peninsula defies all scientists. Despite the indications that the world sea levels are rising, this fjord is drying up. Only 80 years ago ships like this were able to reach the end of this albeit shallow fjord, visible int he distance. The fjord's name is Havanna Fjord - the Harbor Fjord. The structure on the left on cliff sides is an ancient castle from the days of the Closed Kingdom (1300-1770). The banks of the fjord used to have fishing settlements. Most of the fjord bottom now is a salt marsh, rarely reachable by the strongest storms. Unlike the fjord cities, or the Three Giants Fjord, this one is a ghost fjord.
The Chancellor responds to Obama with the restatement of February announcement
Chancellor Dolgrynd reacted to Obama's Cairo speech by restating what the Chancellor said in February. I watched a summary of the response on TV and the gist of the Chancellor's message is that the grassroots of Moslem world are based on fanatical, primitive ego principles which instantly bestow disdain on any compromising partner, and exploit any opportunity, including duplicity and deceit, to pursue its goals in gaining new ground in Islam's spiritual, political, and territorial aspirations. Chancellor repeated, without mincing words, that except some Gulf countries, other Islamic countries belong to the new Evil Empire of the 21-th century, quietly sharpening knives at Jewish people, Israel, and the Western World.
