"was written in 1936 in the wake of WW2. The author, Nordahl Grieg, was inspired by the ongoing Spanish civil war when he wrote this poem." A very sad fairytale.

For more than 711 days, I have yet again watched how a new great fire rages on. I have seen men plead for their life while their doom looked at them from above, I have seen a rebellious lord of this new wave of violence scream in anger surrounded by the empty shells of his fallen followers, I have yet again lost count of the amount of devastating explosions, the fresh graves and and the burned out armour plated carriages, the ruined houses and the lies of one man and his supporters who to this day cling to their power. All so the administration ruling in Moscow can cover its corruption by burning those who could expose them. Unfortunately, the only way to make this hell end is to unleash an even greater fire to swallow what has already been unleashed. They say that things have changed but learning about tales of old, dating back centuries, it’s all so awfully familiar. Si vis pacem para bellum. And hold those in power accountable - before it’s, once again, too late.
Why not add a peace sign, instead of national flag? Anedoctically, the peace sign would anacronical, as it dates of 1958 from Britain, but there are also options like a dove with colour of the flag etc....
Talk about seeing what you want to see. The song/poem has a humanitarian message, decrying violence and promoting peace. While that does indeed mean opposing bigotry, it does not mean that that it promotes conflict. "Stans dem med ånd."

It's pretty easy to not get into the military, just say that you use drugs, you are lazy and that you are not interested in it. You must be very unlucky then if they still accept your application.
It needs to have conscription to maintain a reasonably-sized defence force. Norway is a nation of 5 million. fewer than most big *cities* elsewhere in the world. Only perfectly capable people are conscripted, and the army is very strict. people who suffer from mental health conditions or some form of physical defections are immediately excused from military service. If i'm honest, the conscription is more to make many people capable of functioning under military command to work as reserves and militia should war break out. You aren't required to stay in the military for long.

You completely misunderstood the perspective of the song. It's not about what your country should do if war comes to you, it's about what we all (humanity) should do to avoid the war beginning in the first place. The song is Norwegian (the text anyway, the melody is from a Danish person) but it's not a song meant only for Norwegians.
