The article in Bergens Tidende (BT) has also been published by Aftenposten:

"Norway, stop child kidnapping!"I 22 land verden over demonstrerer titusenvis av mennesker mot norsk barnevern, på grunn av ett vedtak i en bygd på Vestlandet. Hva skjedde etter at fem barn i Naustdal ble tatt fra foreldrene?(In 22 countries around the world, tens of thousands of people demonstrate against Norwegian child protection services, because of a decision in a district in western Norway.)
Aftenposten, 6 February 2016
The article was also found on a separate website, but it seems to have been hacked so this article has disapprered. Here are some quotes from it the way it was:
"Ingen kunne forutse dramatikken den bekymringsmeldingen skulle utløse. Mange tusen mennesker har de siste ukene deltatt på demonstrasjoner i 22 land, alle med utspring i et vedtak i en spredt bebygd kommune på Vestlandet. Saken er blitt så omfattende og betent at til og med statsminister Erna Solberg har måttet rydde plass i kalenderen for å håndtere den."(Nobody cound foresee the drama which this report of worry was to trigger. Many thousands of people have over the last weeks taken part in demonstrations in 22 countries, all of them originating in a country district in western Norway. The case has become so comprehensive and touchy that even prime minister Erna Solberg has had to make room on her calendar to handle it.)
That's right, nobody in Norway had expected … In Norway they are used to CPS victims being condemned, threatened to shut up, being despised, and that the prime minister never sends even a thought in their direction. The BT journalists are probably surprised that the population in other nations react with an ethical consciousness which is more intact?

This is what they mean when they say that Naustdal CPS has been on "the worst-list": "too limited" resources! Now, however, they have additional personnel, so then everything is ok, says head administrator of the municipality Øyvind Band-Olsen:
"I 2014 var Naustdal blant Norges dårligste når det gjaldt ressurser til barnevern, og Fylkesmannen i Sogn og Fjordane var bekymret for kvaliteten på barnevernstjenestene i kommunen. I løpet av det siste halve året har antallet ansatte i barnevernet gått fra tre til fire. Rådmannen mener situasjonen er langt bedre nå.
- Barnevernet vårt er kompetent, sier han."(In 2014 Naustdal was among the worst in Norway when it came to resources for child protection, and the County Administrator of Sogn og Fjordane was worried about the quality of the child protection services in the municipality. Over the last sex months the number of employees has gone from three to four. The municipality administrator thinks the situation is far better now.
– Our CPS is competent, he says.)
So they have time, then, to take children away from their parents and their home in actions totally out of proportion to what may have gode on in the home, and without regard to how this injures the children.

All the blind enthusiasts for child protection are blind to how the resources are used to destroy. All that interests them is that they believe it is so terrible for the children that pictures of them are published, pictures from happy situations with their parents.
The authorities have appointed a lawyer and a guardian for the children. Here is what they think:
"… ikke bare er barna skilt fra foreldrene, de er også blitt skilt fra hverandre.
- Barna blir godt ivaretatt der de er. Ut over det vil jeg ikke kommentere detaljer i saken, sier barnas bistandsadvokat, Sidsel Rustad.
Men én ting vil hun gjerne si noe om. Som talsperson for de små barna reagerer både hun og barnas setteverge, Per-Atle Holmøyvik, på at bilder av barna spres i sosiale medier. Enkelte nettsteder navngir til og med hvilket barn som skal ha varslet om at barna ble slått hjemme.
- Det er forferdelig for barna at navnene kommer ut. Barn skal skånes i slike sammenhenger, og det burde alle forstå. De som opponerer mot systemet går ut med navnene for å få fyr på sitt angrep på systemet og barnevernet, uten å tenke over at de bryter barnas personvern, sier Rustad.
Bistandsadvokaten kommer til å kontakte eksperter for å se om hun kan få gjort noe med bildene av barna som florerer på ulike nettsteder."(Not only have the children been separated from their parents, they have also been separated from each other.
– The children are well taken care of where they are. I will not comment on any further details in the case, says the children's appointed lawyer, Sidsel Rustad.
But there is one thing she wishes to say something about. As a spokesman for the little children she, along with their guardian ad litem Per-Atle Holmøyvik, react against pictures of the children being published on social media. Some websites even tell the name of the child who has supposedly reported that the children are beaten at home.
– It is terrible for the children that their names get out. Children are to be spared in such circumstances and everybody ought to understand it. Those who oppose the system publish the names to fire up under their attack on the system and the CPS, without thinking of how they offend against the children's right to privacy, says Rustad.
The children's lawyer is going to contact experts to see if she can have something done about the pictures of the children being spread around on various websites.)
It is, on the contrary, usually a good thing for children to have the support and strength it gives them to know and see that the parents are fighting for them. They have nothing to be ashamed of, nor have the parents. Especially, they have little to apologise for compared to what the CPS and all their allies do which
they should be sorry about.

"BT har vært i kontakt med fembarnsforeldrene. De har uttalt seg til flere rumenske medier, men ønsker ikke å snakke med norsk presse foreløpig."([The newspaper Bergens Tidende (BT)] has been in touch with the parents of the five children. They have given statements to several Romanian media but do not so far wish to speak to the Norwegian press.)
I am ordinarily in favour of families going out openly, and under their full name. And this what the Bodnariu family does abroad. The Norwegian press, however, can usually be safely ignored, and in this case too: the BT journalists are quite clearly on the side of Norwegian authorities. When the Bodnarius have been met with such good response abroad, it is all the better if they do not bother with Norwegian press people. Few of them contribute to any real analysis of the abuse carried out by Barnevernet.
*
The reactions of people who are more alert morally than most Norwegians are, are perceived as "noise":
"- Støyen utenfra skal ikke få påvirke saksbehandlingen. Det kommunale barnevernets jobb er å sikre barn i hverdagen, og ta vare på sårbare og utsatte barn, sier han. Rådmannen uttaler seg på vegne av barnevernet."(The noise from outside is not going to influence on the case handling. The task of the municipal child protection is to secure children in their daily lives, and take care of vulnerable and exposed children, he says. The administrative municipal leader speaks on behalf of Barnevernet.)
*
The newspaper people are mostly concerned about the Romanians having misunderstood numbers, and they seem rather self-satisfied and Norwegian:
"Opphisselsen er ikke blitt mindre av at aksjonistene har feiltolket den offisielle, men kompliserte, norske barnevernsstatistikken fullstendig."(The excitement has not been lessened by actionists having misunderstood official, but complicated, Norwegian child protection statistics completely.)
Well, the numbers are not all that complicated, but perhaps they impress journalists. It is true that Romanians have understood some numbers, but so what? Firstly, the children and parents hit by Barnevernet are not all that few, even if there are not 12,000 new children taken every year but rather about 12,000 children in the "care" of Barnevernet at present. But secondly, independently of this: Is abuse against a few acceptable? Should not every case of abuse be prevented, are the public employees who implement them not to be punished? Should the rule of law only apply if the relevant group is large?

Translation to be continuedStaten er full av villedning som vanlig, og journalistene tror visst på den:
"I fjor høst sendte departementet ut et rundskriv som skal hjelpe kommuner som plutselig får ambassadører og verdenspressen på døren."Ja, det skal hjelpe norske kommuner å tviholde på galskapen, ved igjen og igjen å "forklare" hvordan norsk barnevern "er", og at det bare er som absolutt siste mulighet, når alt annet har feilet, at man tar barna.

Solveig Horne er på jordet som vanlig:
"IVARETA RETTSSIKKERHETEN: Som statsråd og politiker kan jeg ikke gå inn i enkeltsaker. Men en av mine viktigste oppgaver er å passe på at rettssikkerheten blir ivaretatt, og å sørge for at de som arbeider med dette feltet har den nødvendige kunnskapen og kompetansen. Vi vet jo at feil kan skje. Derfor må vi sørge for at systemet fungerer, slik at feil blir fanget opp, sier ansvarlig statsråd Solveig Horne."Hvis man ikke går nøye inn i enkeltsaker, kan man overhode ikke opprettholde noen rettssikkerhet, eller skape den der den ikke finnes.

Erna Solberg med den vanlige svadaen:
"- Statsministeren understreket at det gjøres uavhengige evalueringer og at saken er under etterforskning. Hun fortalte også om den assistanse som ytes familier i en slik situasjon, skriver kommunikasjonssjef Trude Måseide ved statsministerens kontor i en e-post."Uavhengige? Etterforskning? Assistanse?

Norsk mentalitet har i sannhet kjørt seg ut. At barna kan få se at familien og andre kjemper for dem, det tror man er skadelig. At de tas vekk fra foreldrene og hjemmet, lengter, men ikke får treffe foreldrene og heller ikke får holde sammen, det tror man ikke skader?
Det fins ingen grenser for overtro folk lar seg innpode med når hele det norske statlige apparatet pumper det ut som ideologi, forkledt som vitenskap.
