WAR IS PEACE

FREEDOM IS SLAVERY

IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH

George Orwell, 1984

„We are going to be on the ground in Iraq as soldiers and citizens for years. We are going to be running a colony almost.“

Lt. Col. Nathan Sussaman, commander of a battalion that has surrounded the town of Abu Hishma (Iraq) with a razor wire fence, in an interview with the New York Times:

"With a heavy dose of fear and violence, and a lot of money for projects, I think we can convince these people that we are here to help them."

Teaching – Web resources for some of the class that I have taught.

If you like linguistics, you should check out the Eastern European Summerschool in Generative Linguistics (the egg). If you have questions about the school that are not answered at the web-site, contact me at klaus dott abels att hum dott uit dott no. I won't know the answer to your question either, but it might still be fun to get email from you.

If you don't like linguistics, you should check out some political stuff .

My life as reflected in my CV .

Some papers of mine -- fit to see the light of the world. I hope!
