Vidkun Abraham Lauritz Jonssøn Quisling was a Norwegian army officer and politician. He worked with Fridtjof Nansen during the famine in the Soviet Union, and served as Minister of Defence in the Bondepartiet government 1931–1933. In 1933 he founded the nationalist party Nasjonal Samling (“National Gathering”), and during World War II, from 1942 to 1945, he served as Minister-President of the collaborationist Norwegian government, after being appointed by the German authorities. After the war he was tried for high treason and subsequently executed by firing squad. Today in Norway and other parts of the world, “Quisling” has become synonymous with “traitor”

“Communism was not a specifically Russian phenomenon. It was an international, historically conditioned development phenomenon, in a direct descending line from the Reformation and the French Revolution, a phenomenon of decay in our entire cultural circle, and at the same time a false remedy for the disease of the modern world: a world conspiracy led by Jews, which exploits the peoples' distress and their urge for and demand for justice and progress.”

“Where Harald Hårfagre gathered a kingdom, we shall gather and lead a people. It is a task that has been placed on the national government's shoulders. And the words of our greatest poet-prophet will still urge us:

"Norway was a kingdom, it will become a people.”

“At the University, it was not only the Jews' materialistic ideas that permeated the teaching of all subjects. There were also a number of teachers of more or less Jewish descent. A typical example of the harmful consequences of this is in particular the study of racial biology. This was forced into the form that suited the Jewish equality theories of Liberalism and marxism, and lead to genetic research stagnating completely at the University.”
