  • ☀️ Midsummer CⒶmp

    Knus Krigsmaskinen, 19.-28.06.☀️

    Celebrate midsummer and co-create a camp with us!

    🗓️ 19.-28. June

    📍 Rødbyveien 43, Hurummarka, norway 

    🏕️ self organised camping

    🌐 https://knuskrigsmaskinen.noblogs.org/

    We want to celebrate midsummer in a place of active resistance against the war machine and environmental destruction. The area where the camp will take place is squatted since the beginning of April 2026. It is surrounded by forests, lakes, a house and mountains. This means that there will always be space for everybody 😉

    Let’s co-create a diverse program of skillshares, workshops, music, DIY, art and actions.

    Let’s build a community and different barrios together, let’s grow a culture of care.

    💬 If you want to co-create the program, message us at knuskrigsmaskinen.camp@systemli.org

    We love for you to inform us before the camp starts about your plans, so we can hold space for it to go as smooth as possible. If that doesn’t work for you, we can create space for anything you might bring spontaneously during the camp together.

    Share this invitation with everyone!

    More infos coming soon…

  • “Democracy! Bread and Circus!”

    🎪🤹  Welcome to the performance “Democracy! Bread and Circus!” directed by the Norwegian Defence States Agency, Chemring and Asker Municipality. All decisions have been made, come in and watch the play Democracy!”

    11 May, Tofte Secondary School: What was supposed to be a model for democratic participation and transparent planning from the Norwegian Defence States Agency and Chemring, has turned out to be exactly the opposite: a well-directed mock process. The recently launched planning report and the so-called “People’s Meeting” are nothing more than a play designed to give citizens the illusion of influence, while the decisions have already been made.
    It is very gratifying to see that so many of the locals are not fooled by the leather process, but possess a lot of important knowledge and put the Norwegian Defence States Agency to the wall.

    How has the Norwegian Defence States Agency reached its conclusions? Have they changed the criteria or were the criteria also decided in advance? We cannot accept that the Norwegian Defence States Agency continues to use “open meetings” as an excuse for a lack of genuine dialogue. A planning process that is not willing to accept criticism and adjust its course is not a planning process, it is a decision-making machine. When Chemring Nobel, Asker municipality, the Norwegian Defence States Agency and the State are united in not allowing the local population to take part in deciding whether there should be an explosives factory at Hurum or not, the local population should take matters into their own hands.

    We also invite you to our open meetings in Avgrundsdalen. Boycott or disrupt all of the leather processes set up by the Norwegian Defence States Agency and Asker Municipality, support us in the Avgrunnsdalen Valley and help build up direct democracy and real resistance to the war machine.

  • Regular meetings every Saturday, 16:00

    Regular meetings every Saturday, 16:00

    Yesterday we had our first open meeting in the forest. As locals, activists and representatives of different organizations we came together here in Avgrunnsdalen over pancakes and coffee. 🙂

    We talked about how we can work together, stay in touch and build a powerful movement. It was so inspiring to hear the different perspectives about the land, the history of the people living here, and what each of us are doing to protect this area and stop the war machine. After the meeting many stayed to help us pull up the beginning structures of a tree house.

    Thank you to everyone that came yesterday. From now on we will have regular meetings every Saturday at 16.00. The meeting is open to anyone that would like to join, and we are looking forward to seeing both old and new faces here next week! Together we can build community and a stronger resistance.

  • 1st of May

    1st of May

    Remember the past, build a future that lasts! Shoutout from Avgrunnsdalen to everybody in the streets today ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

    On Tuesday the norwegian parliament will discuss whether to protect Hurummarka or not. While some might still have hope in the official legal process, we have long ago decided to take things in to our own hands and protect Hurummarka by living with the forest. We are here in solidatity with all the beings killed or otherwise affected by the war politics of governments

    Join us 🦔🏕🏴 Don’t know how?

    Come to our open meeting!!
    📅 tomorrow, 2nd of May
    ⏰ 16:00
    📍here in Avgrunnsdalen!

    We will have coffee and waffles 😉

  • Open meeting on Saturday, 2nd of May at 16:00

    Yesterday, Forsvarsbygg and Norconsult sent their new “proposal” for the areal plans of Chemring’s explosives factory to Naturvernforbundet. They instantly criticized these plans, as they suddenly affect a much larger area of the forest, nearby towns, streams and lakes than initially suggested. In addition, certain criteria have been adjusted in a way that Hurummarka appears to become the only viable location for this project. 

    While misleadingly calling their plans as a “proposal”, nothing essential about this factory is up to debate. A “no” is not – and has never been – a possible answer. Instead of being honest about this truth, Forsvarsbygg continues the theatre of “democracy” by now inviting citizens to “open meetings”.
    We invite everyone to no longer accept this show as a inevitable normality. Join us for our open meeting on Saturday, 2nd of May, at 16:00 here in Avgrunnsdalen.

    Let’s dream together about how this valley can develope into a place of ardent resistance and solidarity.

  • Race against the war machine!!

    Race against the war machine!!

    We dont like cars and we hate nationalism, but we see some common ground with the participants of the Hurumsprinten in the fight against Chemring and the military industry that destroy Hurummarka. Thats why we are here today with info material, coffee and pancakes (waffle iron broke again…), ready to chat about what we can do to support each other.

    Come by ☕️🧇

    Knus Krigsmaskinen (og Nasjonalisme)!!

  • Hurumsprinten with waffles

    This weekend theres gonna be a big event happening in Hurummarka. A lot of people will come to watch the annual car race and camp in front of our house.

    We wish to connect with others that care in one way or another about this forest and to see how we can fight the factory together. Therefore we thought it would be nice to hand out waffels, tea, coffee and self made prints. In the evenings we will create a cinema space and watch ‘Earths Greatest Enemy’ and ‘Flåklyppa’.

    If you wanna help us you can come by, donate to us and/or help us with giving out waffles and making this house even more cozy.

    We are thrilled to see you all!
