Mads Fredrik Gilbert is a Norwegian doctor, solidarity worker and politician as a member of the revolutionary socialist party Rødt (Red). He is a specialist in anesthesiology and a leader of the Emergency medicine department of University Hospital of North Norway, and has been a professor of Emergency medicine at the University of Tromsø since 1995.

Gilbert has broad range international experiences, in particular from locations that merge medical and political issues. Actively involved with solidarity work concerning Palestinians since the 1970s, he has served as a doctor during numerous periods in Palestine and Lebanon. His efforts have been central to the efforts that have lead the city of Tromsø, since 2001 a twin town of Gaza, to claim to be the city that has sent more health workers to Palestine than any other the world.

Following an accident in January 2000 when a man rescued after 45 minutes in polar waters was pronounced clinically dead, but survived after the efforts of Gilbert and his team, Gilbert was awarded Årets nordlending 2000 i.e. person from Northern territories — of the year) by the readership of newspaper Nordlys

9/11His statement to Dagbladet was:

"The attack on New York did not come as a surprise with the politics the West has followed the last decades. I am upset by the terrorist attack, but I am at least as upset over the suffering that the US has caused. It is in this context that 5000 dead has to be seen. If the U.S. government has a legitimate right to bomb and kill civilians in Iraq, the oppressed has a moral right to attack the U.S. with the weapons they may create as well. Dead civilians are the same whether they are Americans, Palestinians or Iraqis."

World News & Features, the well-credited news-organization, has again delivered a quality production. CNN has also shown that it goes to absolutely full length in its reporting. I hope that the other American news networks, might follow. And I really hope that bloggers start checking they're sources in a better way.

Thank you reggyreggy for providing an update to this story. This being an old clip illustrates how news stories have a habit of ‘hanging around’ and if that story is a lie then it needs to be brought into the open no matter the age of the story.

It is my joy to clip stories that I feel others may be interested in, and in doing so I have occasionally fallen victim to a bit of propaganda, as I am sure others also have. When this unfortunate event is brought to my attention I am equally eager to acknowledge the unhappy mistake and wish to see the story presented as it should be.

When this unfortunate event is brought to my attention I am equally eager to acknowledge the unhappy mistake and wish to see the story presented as it should be.

After viewing the video link you provided I now see that the story as presented by littlegreenfootballs is a fabrication presented for their own purposes, of which the truth was not one.

Note: I had hoped to edit my original comment by adding the following statement but regretfully find there is no edit button to do so.

Update July 2, 2009: this clip is found to be propaganda. Please see comments posted by reggyreggy for link to video for more details.
