Special Report

Understanding the Norway Massacre

Breivik is an anti-Islam extremist, not a “Christian” or “right-wing” extremist.

Is 32-year-old Norwegian murder suspect Aders Behring Breivik a “Christian extremist”? The New York Times thinks so. “As Horrors Emerge, Norway Charges Christian Extremist,” declared the Times in its Sunday print edition.

The online version of the Times, likewise, asserted (on Saturday), “Christian Extremist Is Charged in Norway.”

The Times has since changed its online headline to read: “Right-Wing Extremist Is Charged in Norway.” That’s better, but still not quite right.

The problem is this: There is no “Christian extremist” movement in the way that there is an Islamist or “Islamic extremist” movement. There are bad Christians, to be sure; but they have no modern-day intellectual and political movement that supports and sustains them — modern-day Islamists, or Islamic extremists, do.

Osama bin Laden, after all, founded al-Qaeda for the express purpose of waging war against the West — and not only the West: As we learned in Iraq, al-Qaeda militants also target and kill other Muslims who dare to dissent from its extreme and intolerant views.

Hamas and Hezbollah perform a similar role in Gaza and Lebanon, respectively. And a deep-seated hostility toward Christians and Jews is inculcated in many Islamic Madrasahs worldwide.

There is today no Christian counterpart to al-Qaeda, Hamas and Hezbollah. Despite whatever historical failings you might attribute to Christianity, there is no active “Christian extremist” movement that preaches violence against non-Christians.

In fact, quite the opposite: Christians worldwide are taught to love their (non-Christian) neighbors and to hate the sin, but love the sinner.

For example, in his 1965 “Declaration on the Relation of the Church to Non-Christian Religions” (Nostra Aetate), Pope Paul VI declared:

The Catholic Church rejects nothing that is true and holy in these [other] religions. She regards with sincere reverence those ways of conduct and of life, those precepts and teachings which, though differing in many aspects from the ones she holds and sets forth, nonetheless often reflect a ray of that Truth which enlightens all men.

Indeed, she proclaims, and ever must proclaim, Christ “the way, the truth, and the life” (John 14:6), in whom men may find the fullness of religious life, in whom God has reconciled all things to Himself.

The Church, therefore, exhorts her sons, that through dialogue and collaboration with the followers of other religions, carried out with prudence and love and in witness to the Christian faith and life, they recognize, preserve and promote the good things, spiritual and moral, as well as the socio-cultural values found among these men.

Moreover, there is no reason to think that Breivik acted out of religious conviction or deep theological belief. What church did he belong to? Insofar as I can tell, we don’t even know if he belonged to a church, let alone that he attended church. “A Facebook page and Twitter account,” reports the Times,

were set up under his name days before the rampage, suggesting a conscious effort to construct a public persona and leave a legacy for others. The Facebook page cites philosophers like Machiavelli, Kant and John Stuart Mill.

His lone Twitter post, while not calling for violence, paraphrased Mill and suggested what he saw as his will to act: “One person with a belief is equal to the force of 100,000 who have only interests.”

John,
I read a lot. I have yet to read who those kids were that he shot and what were they doing at that "camp"?

JP| 7.25.11 @ 7:17AM

Since it was summer camp for teens, I would wager they were....well camping. You know tents, campfires, and lots of Michael Row Your Boat Ashore."

Ken (Old Texican)| 7.25.11 @ 7:45AM

JP,
yeah, and they may have been playing "assemble the AK-47"
Or
"Play rough tag with Jews."
I just don't know and nobody SAYS.
Why not?

JimP| 7.25.11 @ 8:34AM

I'm with you and the others on this, Ken. This sounds like some kind of Hitler Youth Camp for Beta Males and Feminists to me. They don't appear to be getting firearms training, but any political party summer camp smacks of brainwashing. Imagine the reaction if the Republicans had a camp like this?

Tina Trent | 7.25.11 @ 1:47PM

There were innocent kids murdered by a psychopath. Joking about them is sickening: their parents haven't even had time to put their children's bodies in the ground. Give it a break.

Breivik sounds as if he's about as much of a Christian as is Charles Manson. Guardiano's gets it right.

Mike| 7.25.11 @ 2:16PM

I guess you didn't get the notice, mocking slain children on here is fine as long as they were liberals.

Occam's Tool| 7.25.11 @ 6:25PM

Not for me. Nor is mocking slain Jewish 3 month olds who are beheaded, which is a Leftist practice.

Occam's Tool| 7.26.11 @ 7:05PM

I feel sorry for the kids in Norway, but it was the act of a lone lunatic. On the other hand, here's an article in the Lefty Wikipedia on terrorist attacks in Pakistan since 2001---515 references:

Stormkrow | 7.25.11 @ 2:38PM

Could that be anything like Beck's 9/12 Summer Camp.

http://www.meetup.com/tampa912/events/22130491/

TheRightIsAnythingBut| 7.25.11 @ 5:17PM

Seriously, who runs a summer camp that is about politics? I guess the answer is Glenn Beck.
http://www­.meetup.co­m/tampa912­/

Or how about that famous Left-leaning organization, the American Legion? The American Legion has sponsored camps called Boys State and Girls State in state capitals for more than 60 years. Kids spend a week learning all about state government and history.

The top kids from each state then go to Washington­, D.C., for Boys Nation and Girls Nation, all on the American Legion's dime. There they learn about federal politics and history including a lot of kids who went on to elected office. As REPUBLICANS - like one your faves, Scott Walker of Wisconsin.

Got a problem with the American Legion, Jim P? Want to tick off millions of American veterans who fought for your right to embarrass yourself and insult others every day?

How about TAR (Teen-Aged Republican­s) in Baton Rouge in
the mid-60s with its camp in Clinton, LA?

How about this one? http://www­.salon.com­/news/poli­tics/war_r­oom/2011/0­6/14/tea_p­arty_summe­r_camp

There are more but this site limits me to two links.
Every time I think this site has sunk as low as it can, this kind of ignorance convinces there are depths you people haven't even contemplated.

Southern_Comment| 7.26.11 @ 6:39AM

How convenient for you to throw out a few names of organizations. I noticed you left off the Dems version of a brainwashing camp - it's called our public schools. We'll take orgs that teach about how the government is supposed to function and about our Constitution - and that is one point where you are correct - after all the progressive liberals camps (schools) don't teach anything about correct politics for this country, only about heros out of Cuba and that you can't wear a shirt that promotes America in any way.

TheRightIsAnythingBut| 7.26.11 @ 11:37AM

I completely refute the ridiculous speculation about the purpose of the Norwegian camp and you rejoinder is to dismiss as a "few names"?

This becomes a platform for you to rant about public schools? If you can't stick to the subject, STFU.

Israel Intercepts Boat Carrying Weapons on Dead Sea

JERUSALEM – Israeli security forces intercepted a boat Monday on the Dead Sea carrying assault rifles and ammunition from Jordan, Israeli authorities said.

The military provided a photograph showing a haul of 10 Kalashnikov rifles and the same number of ammunition clips. Two men on board, Palestinians in their forties, were arrested, police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said. He said the intended destination of the weapons was unclear.

The military said it was treating the incident as an attempted weapons smuggling operation and not as an attempted militant attack. Army Radio described the vessel as a rubber dinghy.

Rosenfeld said the arrests capped a police operation that lasted several weeks.

The Dead Sea, a landlocked salt lake at the lowest point on the earth's surface, is split between Israeli and Jordanian control. The northwestern section of the lake is in the West Bank, which the Palestinians claim as part of a future state.

Israel and Jordan have a peace agreement, and their frontier is generally quiet. The lake, popular with tourists, is only lightly patrolled, and there is little boat traffic there, as the body of water, about 55 miles long and up to 9 miles wide, has no outlet. A trickle of water flows into it from the Jordan River, and much of it evaporates in the hot desert climate.

Israeli authorities have identified the lake as a route for smugglers with small boats. They bring drugs into Israel from Jordan, the Israelis say, but weapons seizures are rare.

What the hell is a Tooljob, by the way? Having been trained at UCLA, I'm a bit of an expert on perversions, but that's one I've never heard of.

Must be a perversion unique to Pennsylvania neo-Nazis. Or followers of Ron Paul. Just where do you insert the inanimate object, Clint?

Occam's Tool,

Thanks for posting this list of murder victims killed by Moslem/Wahhabi extremists. It is much appreciated!
G-d Bless!

Do you even TRY to find other sources besides FOX and this Web site?

cowgirl| 7.27.11 @ 9:54AM

Probably not since the main stream media in the United States would never publish this stuff.

Drake| 7.25.11 @ 7:58AM

It's a summer camp for Labour Party kids. Doesn't mean they should be shot, but it induces a cringe to think about that many young elitist socialist in place. It does explain why they all ran - instead of a few of the young men getting together and rushing this guy and ending it much earlier.

Old Soldier| 7.25.11 @ 8:03AM

And why they didn't even have .22 rifles or bows and arrows to fight back with like my old Boy Scout camp.

Kingofthenet| 7.25.11 @ 10:53AM

Well, I tried the Archery at my Boy Scout camp, it ain't as easy as it looks. The .22 would work thou...

Alan Brooks| 7.25.11 @ 7:46AM

"The problem is this: There is no "Christian extremist" movement in the way that there is an Islamist or "Islamic extremist" movement. There are bad Christians, to be sure; but they have no modern-day intellectual and political movement that supports and sustains them"

Because of separation of church and state.

simon templar| 7.25.11 @ 8:27AM

Yes, you are correct. It was those christian founders who saw the wisdom in it ( seperation of church and state) but also supported freedom and tolerance for all faiths.

David| 7.25.11 @ 9:00AM

Really?

Are you really that clueless?

Wow.

Johnny H| 7.25.11 @ 9:04AM

The words "separation of church and state" cannot be found in the constitution. However, that "Congress shall make no law regarding the establishment of religion or the free exercise thereof" has been twisted to mean things that were never intended, just like so much of the rest of that precious document.

"Thou shalt not kill" is part of the fundamental set of laws by which Jews and Christians are morally governed. That doesn't stop someone bent on killing from doing so regardless of their professed religious affiliations.

Whether or not there are structural, statutory barriers between the church and the government, a movement or a philosophy doesn't care.

Your separation of church and state assertion holds no water, Alan. It's the underlying theology that prevents most adherents from committing the kinds of acts we saw in Norway, not any preceived constitutional prohibitions.

Contrast that with political islam for a moment, if you will....

Alan Brooks| 7.25.11 @ 9:42AM

Of course separation of church and state wasn't pushed by ther founders, it was added by libs later-- which is why we have no Sharia in America.
Thank God for atheists!

Doctor Right| 7.25.11 @ 9:52AM

Where exactly is the "separation of Church and state" in the Constitution, genius?

Cite the section, please.

And WHEN was it added? By whom?

Again, cite the source.

Alan Brooks| 7.25.11 @ 10:39AM

it is not in the Constitution or anywhere else, separation of church and state was unofficially added by libs.
Thank God for that.

Margie| 7.25.11 @ 2:54PM

Heh, at least Alan tells the plain truth. Refreshing for a Liberal??

Uncle Joe| 7.25.11 @ 9:35PM

Kevin| 7.25.11 @ 4:55PM

Hey Alan and Doc, why don't you check the very first line in the very first amendment to the Constitution?

Occam's Tool| 7.25.11 @ 6:32PM

The idea was to avoid an "Established" church. Not to allow moronic interventions in the private practice of religion. Dr Right is, as usual, correct.

cowgirl| 7.25.11 @ 10:37AM

Did you attend public schools? I am sure you did. There is no such thing as separation of church and state anywhere in the Constitution or the Bill of Rights. The phrase was hijacked by KKK member, Democrat and Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black, appointed by FDR, in the 1947 landmark case of Everson Vs. Board of Education who co-authored the ruling. The phrase was written by Thomas Jefferson responding to a letter written by the Danbury Baptist Ministers congratulating Jefferson on his Presidential win and celebrating Jefferson's adovacy for religious freedom. This misused phrase from the letter was not a treatise on the Establishment Clause in the First Amendment, but a political statement written to reassure his Baptists constituents that Jefferson was a friend of religion and to strike back at those who called him a infidel and an atheist during his very, very vile Presidential campaign against John Adams. You might want to read up on the campaign to understand the whole reason of the correspondence that took place between Jefferson and the Danbury Baptist Ministers. But you are a liberal and liberals are responsible for destroying American history in the public school systems so I am sure there will be no effort put forth by you to unbrainwash you.
Furthermore, for KKK Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black to use anything Jefferson wrote about religion and the First Amendment as evidence shows his lack of qualification to be a KKK Supreme Court Justice. Jefferson did not write the Constitution - he was in France at the time of the drafting and adoption of the Constitution. He had nothing to do with it as Adams did not either - he was in England. The Father of our Constitution is Madison. One might be more enlightened on issues involving the First and Second Amendments by reading Madison.

Alan Brooks| 7.25.11 @ 10:41AM

"...KKK Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black ..."

Well at least Black wasn't a Communist.

cowgirl| 7.25.11 @ 10:58AM

Maybe he was not a Communist, but he was just as bad...

Doctor Right| 7.25.11 @ 11:45AM

No, jerk-off...But he WAS a Democrat.

Bill| 7.26.11 @ 9:14AM

Well, offsetting Hugo Black was William O. Douglas, a card-carrying member of the Industrial Workers of the World.

Kingofthenet| 7.25.11 @ 10:55AM

There is absolutely no mention of Yahwah in the Constitution either.

cowgirl| 7.25.11 @ 10:57AM

I did not say there was any mention of God in the Constitution, however the fact that the issue of religion is addressed in the First Amendment is proof positive of the Judeo-Christian values that built the Constituion.

Kingofthenet| 7.25.11 @ 10:55AM

There is absolutely no mention of Yahwah in the Constitution either.

Whome| 7.25.11 @ 3:41PM

Cowgirl, it wouldn't surprise me if you get anal cancer. Only a sick asshole would write something like this.

Occam's Tool| 7.25.11 @ 6:35PM

Whome---it was Judeo-Christian values that built the Constitution. As a matter of fact, if C(lint) Elegans were to look at his dollar bill and check above the Eagle on the Reverse, he would see a Star of David in honor of the great Haym Solomon.

I don't get the vituperation against the sweet Cowgirl, who is never offensive of vulgar.

Margie| 7.26.11 @ 2:03AM

Not only are you an indecent troll, but a coward as well for hiding behind another name.

cowgirl| 7.26.11 @ 10:39AM

When your argument, if one could call your statement an argument, has no facts, then you call people names and wish cancer on them.
Liberalism is a mental illness and you have it.

simon templar| 7.25.11 @ 11:23AM

What the hell are you talking about? The concept as it was originally applied by Jefferson in his writings and other founders writings was an attempt to clarify to concerned minority religious leaders that the meaning of the constitution references to religion and the federal government was to establish the idea that the federal government would not establish a state sanctioned religion at the expense of religious freedom and expression of other faiths. That's all. People were free to express their faiths both in the private and public sector, within their schools, churches, state legislatures, and private homes. You communist came along later and perverted the meaning to include unconstitutional restraints on this religious expression via the courts....everything from removing the ten commandments from state buildings to outlawing the use of the word God in high school commencement speeches.

Alan Brooks| 7.25.11 @ 12:15PM

"People were free to express their faiths both in the private and public sector."

Even Satanists?

simon templar| 7.25.11 @ 2:33PM

Even atheist like you and worshipers of science and socialism.

Clint| 7.25.11 @ 12:26PM

It's about States Rights.

Jefferson wrote a letter to the Danbury Baptist Association in 1802 to answer a letter from them written in October 1801. The Danbury Baptists were a religious minority in Connecticut, and they complained that in their state, the religious liberties they enjoyed were not seen as immutable rights, but as privileges granted by the legislature — as "favors granted." Jefferson's reply did not address their concerns about problems with state establishment of religion — only of establishment on the national level.

Jefferson praised the use of his native Albemarle County Court House for alternating Religious services by four different protestant Sects. Jefferson allowed Chairs of Theology & Use Of all facilities at His State University, The University of Virginia, as U.Va,'s Founder & First Chancellor.

simon templar| 7.25.11 @ 2:25PM

Exactly, the concept was directed at the federal level. Many states at the time actually had religious affiliation and this was perfectly fine with Jefferson and expected as a right for states and communities to express their faiths as they saw fit. Spot on.

Elron H.| 7.25.11 @ 5:10PM

Jefferson was a fraud; he stole ALL of his ideas from Ron Paul...

Elron H.| 7.25.11 @ 5:53PM

Vote For Bibi.

RCV| 7.26.11 @ 2:12AM

Clint that is a flat out falsehood. Jefferson refused to even allow the teaching of theology at UVa and wrote that "a professorship of theology should have no place" at the University. He worked with Madison to disestablish state supported religion in Virginia.

cowgirl| 7.26.11 @ 10:49AM

Clint is absolutely correct about Jefferson - he gave Federal money to missionaries to convert native American Indians. He along with George Mason wrote the Constitution of the State of Virginia. Sec 16 of Virginia's Constitution is as follows:
SEC. 16. That religion, or the duty which we owe to our Creator, and the manner of discharging it, can be directed only by reason and conviction, not by force or violence; and therefore all men are equally entitled to the free exercise of religion, according to the dictates of conscience; and that it is the mutual duty of all to practice Christian forbearance, love, and charity towards each other.

Margie| 7.25.11 @ 2:58PM

Well said, sir.

You know, my husband and I recently moved and we were downtown in a very old city at the water dept in the municipal blg. On our way out, in the stairwell was a huge stone monument and in it was carved God's Ten Commandments!!!!
I have never seen them written in stone and I actually teared up. I thought of how Moses must have felt when God gave them to Him in stone.
Awesome!!!!
God bless America!
p.s. simon, I replied to you in the other thread. It's all good.
Bless you.

RCV| 7.26.11 @ 1:53AM

Simon. It's hard to reconcile that explanation with Jefferson's refusal issue a Thanksgiving proclamation on grounds that for the President to call for day of prayer would violate the First Amendment. The fact is that " the Founders" had widely divergent views on this and many other issues of Constitutional interpretation. They were decidedly not of one mind.

crookedwren| 7.25.11 @ 12:48PM

No Sharia in America? Have you been to Michigan lately?

TrueBlue| 7.25.11 @ 3:45PM

Yup, such a horrible fact that it wasn't in the Constitution isn't it? I mean heck, the fact that our country was founded on Judeo-Christian beliefs must be terrible! It's not like we were ever successful before those liberal idiots decided to push for that activist bs, right?

Oh wait...

Seek| 7.25.11 @ 12:59PM

I don't see the words "God," "Jesus," "Bible" or "biblical" in the Constitution either. Anyone familair with how our founding document came to be written knows this was no oversight.

simon templar| 7.25.11 @ 2:32PM

Our founding document was the Declaration of Independence. It is the why. The constitution is the how. Our constitution directly references religious belief and faith as a legitimate, protected, and valuable element of our Republic, its citizens, and the nation. It's the first ammendment. This was no coincidence or oversight but a deliberate statement to its importance. If you do not like it move to an atheistic communist nation..try Cuba..it's close.

Margie| 7.25.11 @ 3:02PM

"“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”
~John Adams.

Better get with the program, Seek!!

TrueBlue| 7.25.11 @ 3:52PM

True, it isn't in the Constitution, it is however, quite clearly in the Delcaration. The first several lines in fact.

"When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

And at the end:

"And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor."

No religious references by our Founding Fathers at all, nope...

TheRightIsAnythingBut| 7.25.11 @ 5:20PM

Malarkey.

And yet, if you bothered to check any other sources but FOX and this Web site, that Breivik in his initial appearance hinted at two other cells and something calling itself the Knights Templar.

Stay tuned and try being open-minded. There's more to come.

Dave | 7.25.11 @ 12:57PM

If we're left with The Times to report the honest, unspun story, we'll probably never find out exactly what those "kids at camp" were doing. But that's not the issue. Here's the thing: A killer is a killer and a terrorist is ... more of the same. And it matters not who's pulling the trigger, flying a plane or lighting the fuse. One thing you CAN count on is propagandists like The Times and their network brethren at NBC, NPR et al to never fail taking an opportunity to make political hay points during tragedies (allegedly) involving a person of blond hair and non-color, while aiming their biased little fingers toward the Right while sniveling -- "nah-nah-nah-nah-nah naaah."

Never forget, grasshoppers: When a military officer of Muslim extraction assassinates several of his fellow soldiers while still in service, or another sympathizer to The Cause attempts to detonate the passenger filled airliner he's riding on , or an anti American cultist in (say) the Pacific Northwest walks into a diner and kills several police officers while writing out their daily reports - then the coin gets flipped, the hush spin begins and those under-reported event(s) get buried before the next edition lands on the porch. Minimal reporting such as this is especially helpful if you're an American Attorney General who's sympathies toward Black Panthers have been on display since arrival of ... The One.

So now, this is the front line story the world and America is currently being deluged with today. Those other stories and tragedies? Just something to wrap yesterday's fish in.

RCV| 7.25.11 @ 1:04PM

The children were young people affiliated with the Labor Party of Norway, Ken, the official governing party. European political parties on the left and right typically have youth organizations for politically active youth.

Nice try trying to blame the victims of this nut case, who in fact reminds me very much of you - same mentality -- mowing down "communists" (pardon the shorthand) who are soft on muslims.

Melvin | 7.25.11 @ 7:02AM

The more I read the crap spewed from all forms of media. The angrier I got. The media kept blaring, Masonic, Right Wing Christian, anti-Muslim, Norwegian with ties to the English Defense League, Neo-Nazis, and a member of the European Tea Party, purposely used dum dum bullets in his automatic assault rifle to maximize damage to his victims.
"!!!!Norwegian!!!! Oklahoma City," screamed the British Tabloids. This mass murderer didn't have to tell the police anything, the media was doing it form him.

Walt K| 7.25.11 @ 7:45AM

I beg to differ.

When you read Breivik's diary, you will see clearly that he is a Right Wing Christian Fundamentalist.

We may wish he were not, but his writings support the media's claims.

He and his monstrous carnage have diluted the claim that the terrorists we must fear are Islamic. Breivik could not have done Radical Islam a better favor.

From now on when mentioning Islamic extremists you will hear, " Well whatabout . . ."

Alan Brooks| 7.25.11 @ 7:48AM

And McVeigh (also Nichols, who lives) wasn't Islamic nor leftist.

Teaghan| 7.25.11 @ 8:18AM

But you know Alan, there are many far fewer of the McVeighs and this wacko from Norway than there are murdering muslim extremeists. The muslims terrorists are an organized GROUP not lone nut cases like this guy. So please don't try to lump all of us Christians into this guys barrel. That dog don't hunt here.
My questions was why did he go after his own people and not muslims? Just askin.......

RCV| 7.25.11 @ 1:06PM

Because they were the "communists" responsible for allowing muslim immigration into his country. Sound familiar?

A. P. Peaser| 7.25.11 @ 2:10PM

Sounds about right.

Nina| 7.25.11 @ 2:30PM

And please be sure to share that intel with the appropriate authorities, will you? I'm sure they're starved for it.

simon templar| 7.25.11 @ 8:42AM

McVeigh was another nutjob with an almagamation of various contradictory views and politics like most crazies. Can we stop this smearing and the use of mentally ill people for your political agendas?

Trebuchet| 7.25.11 @ 8:47AM

Alan you are soooo yesterday. Terry Nichols has admitted ties to Adu Sayyaf. They footed the bill.

Alan Brooks| 7.25.11 @ 9:49AM

"Terry Nichols has admitted ties to Adu Sayyaf. They footed the bill."

If Nichols said so then it must be true-- that way he feels better to spread the blame around as much as he can. Nichols can say black helicopters dropped off the fertilizer and racing fuel to Timmy.
What has Terry Nichols got to lose by saying anything he wants?:

NICHOLS: "it... was (sob) Elvis who put us up to it (sniffle)... and... the... Queen of England; yes, that's it- the Queen of England..."

simon templar| 7.25.11 @ 11:11AM

The bomb used in the Oklahoma killings was the EXACT composition and contruction as the one's used in previous Al Qaeda bombings. This is substantiates Nichols claims.

PolishKnight| 7.25.11 @ 9:43AM

I've been hearing this argument of equivalence from leftists (not to say Alan is a leftist, it's just I hear this from leftists) since 9/11. The argument of equivalence is their general justification for their own twisted viewpoint.

When I point out leftism's failures including to stop homelessness in America or for the welfare state to end poverty, they sputter: "Well, no system is perfect" and I reply: "Then why criticize capitalism? It's not perfect either and a lot cheaper."

There are key differences between McVeigh and the new darlings (radical Islam) of the left:

1) McVeigh was a loner. Literally. As the author of this article points out, the right has been largely peaceful despite being massive supporters of the 2nd amendment. Compare and contrast to the terrorists from the 1960's that Obama regularly hung out with.
2) McVeigh targeted a federal building while the left's radical darlings have purposely targeted civilians in order to spread terror. They take delight in seeing people around the world now having to remove their shoes at airports.
3) The left are hypocrites who preach diversity and tolerance while openly bashing white males.

Indeed! Note that even as the left likes to use rhetoric that lumps the few radical right wingers and the common leftist terrorists together, they clearly celebrate artists in NYC dumping Bibles into urine or crucifixes into the toilet while being "sensitive" about the Islamic community and not just because they've embraced it as a new special political special interest group. They know the radical muslims aren't bluffing.

Stormzeye| 7.25.11 @ 10:29AM

This man was not as much anti-Moslem as he was anti-Liberal. His actions were against the regime (Labor Party) in power almost since its inception some 100 years ago and certainly since WWII. This is why he targeted the government office building (present leaders) and the Labor Party's Youth Camp (future leaders). I can understand the frustration of a disaffected person who feels shut out of a system and denigrated for his views at every turn. It's like being a Tea Partier in Cambridge.
The unfortunate thing about this murderer though is that he didn't set himself on fire instead of slaughtering children. He could have brought attention to the issues and created a movement much like the young Tunisian peddler who did the same and started the "Arab Spring".

Alan Brooks| 7.25.11 @ 10:47AM

He IS a pig! he is a little swine.

Alan Brooks| 7.25.11 @ 12:22PM

"I can understand the frustration of a disaffected person who feels shut out of a system"

He wasn't shut out. He was/is a psychopathic mass murderer, who- if anything- deserved to be shut out. His writings indicate so.

cowgirl| 7.25.11 @ 10:55AM

McVeigh was not a Christian. He was raised a Catholic and refuted his Catholic upbringing many times. He made the statement "Science is my religion", he did not believe in Hell and was agnostic when asked about his religious views while in prison. This information is available in the very liberal Wikiepedia. It may behove you to do some research before spouting the liberal mantras that are just that mantras - with no supporting evidence.

The real reason behind McVeigh's bombing of the Federal Building had nothing to do with Christianity - he was enfuriated with Janet Reno's command to kill everyone at Waco. You will find this information in the very liberal Wikipedia also.

Tina Trent | 7.25.11 @ 1:56PM

Accuracy. How refreshing. If only it were catching, too.

Among purveyors of "hate crimes" information, McVeigh is frequently described as a Christian.

Maddox| 7.25.11 @ 11:09AM

Be sure to dress as a Hassidic Jew and see what kind of reception you get. If you don't own a costume, just find an effette looking man and enter the Mosque holding hands. Should be fun. If you can't find a man, go in eating a pulled pork sandwhich.

Doctor Right| 7.25.11 @ 2:15PM

You're pathetic.

If you REALLY want to be brave when you visit the Mosque, then don't waste your time on one in the USA. Muslims here are simply biding their time until the moment is right.

Go to one in Holland, or the UK. And take a Bible with you, and tell them you'd like to see if any of their members are interested in learning about Christ.

THAT would be brave. And as an added benefit, we wouldn't have to deal with your liberal idiocy on this board anymore. When they finished with you, there wouldn't be anything left but a greasy spot.

Then again, liberal...greasy spot...what's the difference?

Alan Brooks| 7.25.11 @ 5:17PM

"Go to one in Holland, or the UK. And take a Bible with you, and tell them you'd like to see if any of their members are interested in learning about Christ."

In America, muslims are less intrusive than Christians, Jews, Hare Krishnas, etc.

I do not know if US muslims are biding their time. But at THIS time they are less intrusive than any faiths, aside from buddhists, say, or New Age ashrams, etc, and so on.

But in the Mideast, sure, it is worse.

old white guy| 7.25.11 @ 8:26AM

such nonsence. the man was no more a christian than he is a pig. if he is anti muslim why did he not go after muslims. i would say he is anti labor government because that was the target of his rage.

simon templar| 7.25.11 @ 8:38AM

The man was a mentally deranged person just like the fool in Arizona. His politics amd affilaitions are suspect. The media will trump up anything and smear anyone it deems not with the program. He is no more representative of christain right wing fundamentalist than the idiot in Arizona is of liberalism or liberals. Use your brain, just once. No claims are diluted by one insane menatlly disturbed man. Yeah, let's throw away reality just like this guy because of his delusions and actions.

JimP| 7.25.11 @ 9:08AM

Here's a sample of Breivik's "right wing fundamentalism":

"Sat 11 June Day 41 … I prayed for the first time in a very long time today. I explained to God that unless he wanted the Marxist-Islamic alliance and the certain Islamic takeover of Europe to completely annihilate European Christendom within the next hundred years he must ensure that the warriors fighting for the preservation of European Christendom prevail."

Yeah, fundamentalist Christians don't pray often. ANY mention of God and Christianity = right wing extremist fundamentalist to left wing propagandists and paranoid, brainwashed lefties. At least 95% of his diary reads like something the Unabomber would write. It is obviously written by someone who is mentally disturbed.

Meanwhile Walt uses the kind of broad brush smear against Christians, and "right wing"ers that his kind are always warning everyone to not use with regard to Muslims and too many others to waste time mentioning here.

big bob| 7.25.11 @ 11:36AM

OMG!! This sounds JUST like Christ's instructions to the disciples in the upper room!! Just before He was to undergo 5 kangaroo trials. (courts were even a problem THEN!) It has all the markings of such rhetoric: sectarian, vitriolic, demanding God do HIS own bidding, and of course, Christ hadn't prayed in SUCH a long time! And when He did, was found Himself praying for the renewal of the Jewish kingdom that had been predicted for hundreds and thousands of years. Yes, this diary is a CLEAR indication that this man was like minded with Jesus' teachings. In fact, did anyone check to see if he had on a WWJD bracelt?? I'll bet once they get done with the GPR swabbing, they will find such a bracelet. No, this is too rich. Duh.

TheRightIsAnythingBut| 7.25.11 @ 5:26PM

Actually, Breivik copied large parts of the Unabomber's manifesto - word for word in some cases.

See, being paranoid works sometimes.

Hoads| 7.25.11 @ 9:40AM

I've skimmed through the 1500 pg. Manifesto and he does not claim to be taking action in the name of God or Christ, nor does he declare affiliation with a church or religious organization at all and neither does he evoke any type of religiosity in his writings.
He is obviously mentally ill and an extremist but a lone one not fueled by "christianity".

JP| 7.25.11 @ 10:37AM

Did he quote the Gospels, St Paul, St Augustine, Martin Luther, Jimmy Swaggert, Margie?

If not, he isn't a Christian let alone a Christian Fundementalist.

Margie| 7.25.11 @ 3:33PM

The only thing I've read about him so far is that he was raised Catholic.

And I don't subscribe to Jimmy swaggart "Christianity".

And, even more importantly~ I don't get your gist.
Nor do I want to.

By the way, Mr. Hit and Run JP~ I answered your inquiries the other day, and you being the gentleman that you are (heh) never responded.

In the future, I will ignore your pathetic jabs at my character.

Good luck.

Clint| 7.25.11 @ 6:03PM

Duuuuhhhh !
Fanatic Anti-Catholic Apocalyptic Crank Lady Victor-Margie-Sybil-Sandy.

"Raised in a secular household, Breivik went from “moderately agnostic” to “moderately religious” and was baptized and confirmed in the Norwegian State Church at the age of 15. He is consistently critical of the Catholic Church and the Protestant Church (which he thinks has served its purpose and should reassimilate into the Catholic Church, in order to give a united front against Islam), as he believes both have abdicated their responsibility to defend Christian subjects against an Islamic invasion."

Occam's Tool| 7.25.11 @ 6:43PM

I get lost in you insults, C(lint ) Elegans. But, for Margie's benefit and amusement, let me explain that C Elegans is a free living roundworm with 302 neurons (genetically determined). It comes in two types, hermaphrodites (self-fertilizing in the absence of males) and males (selectively fertilized). I think we can agree on C(lint)'s type, can't we?

Note, no profanity, yet unbelievably cruelly sarcastic and derogatory, which is what the Paulbot deserves. Good to see you, Margie. My advice to you is to get The Frantics' Comedy Album featuring Tae Kwan Leap (Boot to the head), and listen to it while reading Clint's rantings. You will find that Clint closely resembles Ed Gruberman.

Margie| 7.26.11 @ 1:19AM

Always good to see you as well, O.T., and thanks for the kind words. (Again)!

I read this from The Catholic Knight.blogspot. In his own words.

"In fact, Breivik was baptized into the state-run liberal Protestant Church, which he says he did "by his own free will," but later became disillusioned with the way in which Liberal Protestantism has sacrificed much of it's historic Christian character. He once blogged... "Today's Protestant church is a joke. Priests in jeans who march for Palestine and churches that look like minimalist shopping centres. I am a supporter of an indirect collective conversion of the Protestant church back to the Catholic." Breivik obviously had little knowledge of Catholicism, for if he did, he would have known that one of the biggest Christian supporters of a Palestinian State is none other than the Catholic Church."

p.s. Occam, Clint resembles someone who is possessed. Nothing but expletives come pouring forth from their mouths, especially toward anyone who nails them.

Heh, no wonder Clint* feels he's obligated to be a Palestinian worshipper and friend of anti-semites.

Margie| 7.26.11 @ 1:56AM

Wait, is that like a hybrid car, with both gas & battery power? LOL.

crookedwren| 7.25.11 @ 1:15PM

Walt,

Certainly the Left will berate the Right soundly with this. Never mind that jihad against Islam has not been declared by the Christian Church. Never mind that jihad is antithethetical to Jesus' admonitions to his followers to "put down your sword" and "turn the other cheek." Never mind that a true fundamentalist Christian would not, could not, participate in that kind of human massacre. What you do to others, you do to Him. THAT is fundamentally Christian.

Just because the man claims to be a Christian doesn't make him one.

Now since 9/11, there have been over 17,000 recorded jihadist attacks of one sort or another throughout the world.

I think we can reasonably assert that there is a difference between an Islamic jihadist and an insane maniac who claims to believe in the Christian God.

So, yes, even though I'll assert that the man, regardless of what he thought he believed, was no true follower of Christ, the mainstream media will spin this into perpetuity as an example of how dangerous Christian fundamentalists are.

But the Truth is important. We must clarify when and as we can. The ACTIONS reveal the man much more than his words do.

simon templar| 7.25.11 @ 8:33AM

Yes, This is the western left wing media's moment. They have been waiting for it with bated breath since the last nutjob killed in Arizona and he turned out to be more a Lefty. They will use the event like they did in the Clinton administration to distract, deflect, smear and shape public opinion against conservativism, christianity, public concern over illegal immigration in one fell swoop. It worked then, it will work now.

Louis Jenkins| 7.25.11 @ 3:07PM

WeMustResist| 7.25.11 @ 7:34AM

He killed no Muslims or Marxists, but his motive, were are told, was hatred for Muslims and Marxists. That is one contradiction. Either his motivation was different from hatred of Muslims and Marxists or he could not find any in Norway. He spent years plotting the murders but was not able to find any Muslims or Marxists in Norway. Perhaps the police will try to find some evidence about his motive. The current theory is too stupid for words.

RCV| 7.25.11 @ 11:25PM

It's not a "theory". He's told you what his motive was: to save Norway from "global Marxism" and those weakening Europe's Christian heritage, which he blames on the ruling Labor Party.

Old Soldier| 7.25.11 @ 8:01AM

Breivik is a fool first and foremost. As noted above, he probably didn't kill a single Muslim. What he did was make legitimate criticism of Muslims and Islam itself much more difficult in Norway.

Nina| 7.25.11 @ 2:41PM

I agree with you. Now, there will be no tolerance at all for anyone criticizing muslims or Islam in Norway. This guy helped them succeed in what they wanted to do. And they keep doing it all across the world. Just because this poor dope acted out on what he saw happening and unfortunately murdered innocent people (just how innocent tho'). Germans turned a blind eye to the nazis and Hitlers horrors, is history repeating itself? My prayers to all the family members who lost a loved one in Norway.

Bill S| 7.25.11 @ 8:18AM

The real story is that Norway is a liberal country. Oslo has four times the crime rate of New York City. Like all liberals they don't take crime seriously. That's why they were totally and criminally unprepared to deal with an emergency close to their nation's capital. It took them 90 minutes to respond to the shooter. The children were children of national party leaders. Why wasn't there security on the island? There's no excuse for creating a situation where a shooter had 90 minutes to hunt and kill children.

Old Soldier| 7.25.11 @ 9:10AM

Insanity.

Melvin | 7.25.11 @ 8:33AM

I don't know whether or not Liberals, Socialists, quasi Marxists are either ignorant or just butt blind to the fact that you cannot mass migrate a mass of people who have absolutely no intention of integrating peacefully into the host society and expect everyone to hold hands and sing, "We are the World."

You can't legislate multiculturalism, you can't force multiculturalism, nor is it something that can be demanded.

Like it or not what Breivik did, is just the tip of the ice burg. Norway is just about the most laid back Country there is and if Breivik was willing to murder as many Norwegians as he could, what lies beneath the surface of the Countries that are not so laid back?

Conservatives, christians, Tea party people have nothing to apologize for or explain. This is simply the use of a mentally deranged person by the liberal media for political purposes to smear their political opponents like they have done dozens of other times all the while ignoring the reality of mass killing done by the same people they bend over to politically protect and the violence that their activists, unionist, and left wing extremist commit every day of the week. They rushed to judgment on the Arizona nutjob, created all kinds of delusions and deranged accustations then and they will use this event in the same manner.

David| 7.25.11 @ 9:07AM

No one should be surprised at the Times for printing such drivel. It's the same publication that informed us that the First Crusade was when the Christians went east to kill Muslims. Completely ignoring that fact that the First Crusade was in fact the Muslims heading west and to kill everyone that would not accept Islam.

I love how liberals leave out details or change history.

Times next issue will explain how the Holocaust was in fact something done to Muslims in present day rather than what it was during WWII.

This guy is an lone-wolf amateur compared to the professional Muslim terrorists who have killed over 300 people and wounded over 400 people in just the last month. For the long bloody list of Islam's atrocities, see www.thereligionofpeace.com
There have been thousands killed by Muslim terrorists since (after) September 11, 2001, and thousands more were killed in the decades prior to that. Most of these have involved Muslims of one sect or tribe killing members of other sects or tribes. The evidence that Islam is the embodiment of evil is overwhelming. Islam is a 7th century political ideology whose goal is the destruction of religious freedom, human rights, our Bill of Rights, our Constitution, and Western civilization. There is no such thing as a moderate Muslim. The best thing a Muslim can do is reject Islam, but then his brothers might want to kill him for apostasy. As the Ayatollah Khomeini said, Islam is nothing if not politics.

What happened in Norway has no lessons for the United States. In Brievik's warped mind he was leading the resistance to a Quisling-like collaborationist regime with the Muslims playing the role of the Nazi occupiers. It has already been reported that his hero is the leader of the Norwegian anti-Nazi resistance movement.

There is one lesson to be learned. Military style rifles are banned in Norway. Brievik acquired his weapon illegally in the Czech Republic. Gun Control is not the answer to this problem.

We don't know what's going on.

It is always worth approaching an event like this with the simple question: cui bono?

The jihadis, including al-Q, benefit: Western authorities will now try even harder to ignore their activities and treat them with kid gloves. Plus, the Norwegian crowd who indicted Mullah Krekar gets their kids killed and their building blown up.

The Western Left benefits: the current media narrative will fuel their anti-gun, open borders, multi-culti and anti-conservative agendas.

It's nearly perfect, isn't it? In a more interesting world this would be an elegant, masterful false flag operation by, oh, somebody. SPECTRE, under contract to the Ayatollah.

drgene| 7.25.11 @ 11:44AM

It would be wiser to ponder the "nuggets of truth" hidden in Breivik's video and manifesto, than to merely condemn the obvious:his massacre.

Clearly there is a real problem with the popular liberal social policy of "go along to get along" and
"blame the rich/capitalists for all poverty" Islamicization of Europe has already begun--by
massive migrations/immigrations. These Muslim
migrants demand Shariah as their law. They will conquer Europe by over-population--not jihad.

Acquiescence to this Islamicization is cultural and religious suicide. For what? In the name of an illusion called multi-culturalism? Islam believes in homogeneity:all are to be Muslims or else--not multi-culturalism, nor religious pluralism. The true ideal of diversity is this: the greater culture or religion Elevates the lesser--not accomodates itself to a Lowest Common Denominator!

This is a serious issue: if all is to be sacrificed to
"get along"--to merely survive-- then all true humanity, real culture, and deep religion is sacrificed on the altar of accomodation with
the new barbarians, the neo-tribalists of the world
who tell us we all belong to a biological group, and are not to be individuals, and that no religion is really greater than any other.

As Islam says:Muhammad and Islam are Greater than Jesus and his new religion. That's a total lie, and disparages the fact:Jesus was/is infinitely Greater than Muhammad--so Jesus discipleship is infinitely better than being a Muslim.

canuckistani| 7.25.11 @ 12:26PM

Exactly.

Why are we making this out to be more than anything other than a political assassination gone to the extreme? Is it the scale alone or the prospect he has sympathizers willing to pick up his mantle from here? I doubt it. There were little to no McVeigh wannabes after OK city, this will be the same.

I do give the PM and royals credit for adding zero security to their memorial procession. They have guts and know their cause is bigger than they are.

The jihadi group that claimed responsibility was also outed as just a phantom group - perhaps a plant?

Cpm| 7.25.11 @ 7:07PM

If he got to the island and found his target had already left, he was already committed, so maybe killing the kids was his fallback plan.

divest yourselves of all pejorative thinking and investigate for yourself to find the truth:

"He was a Christian (just like Muslim terrorists are Islamic); he was right-wing (just like most people who are fearful of world Islamification in this country are right-wing; his actions were about as extreme as they come.

Added together you come up with the perpetrator being a Right-Wing Christian Extremist.

Christian in what way. Did he attend Mass. Was he ever al altar boy? If he was a Protestant Lutheran, did he support his church? Wanting to ressurect an old extinct order (The Knights Templar were shut down by Pope Clement 800 years ago) does not make one a Christian.

In what way is he Right Wing? Is he a monarchist? A Federalist? A student of Hayek and Friedman?

Hitler was muderous Leftwing Nationalist. Robbespierre was a Muderous Leftwing anarchist. Napoleon was a Leftwing Militarist. All three were in favor of radical centralized control of most areas of human life. They were all avowed athieist, none favored private property except in those instances when it suited thier purposes.

Another tidbit of information is that thousands of Liberal Democrats even today approve of Mao's atrocities. Funny thing that the anger that the Left has for Conservatives isn't directed towards a regime who murdered over 50 million souls.

Purple Lips| 7.25.11 @ 3:14PM

Melvin,
Don't waste your time. The person is a Black Nationalist. Here's an excerpt from his/her blog:

"Having exhausted all of the other tools available within the Constitution of the United States; we have no further regress to consider, beyond our means in keeping with peace and nonviolence, than to amend the Constitution or to consider it completely dissolved."

The question I have is simple. When ever has a nation "peacefully" dissolved its constitution?

Mike| 7.25.11 @ 6:22PM

"Another tidbit of information is that thousands of Liberal Democrats even today approve of Mao's atrocities."

No. You yourself know that is not even remotely true. No sane person would ever support the killing of 50 million people, and even implying that anyone would believe this accusation of yours is insulting to the intelligence of everyone here.

Occam's Tool| 7.25.11 @ 6:48PM

Except for the Obama appointee who called Mao one of it's favorite political philosophers. Or Van Jones, who was a self-declared Marxist. Or Bill Ayers, who hosted Obama first political meeting, who was an unrepetant anti-American terrorist.

Nothing revealed to date identifies this man as a "right wing" anything. Historically, the left pulls this horrendous sort of thing. And the muslims do this to one another all the time. Yet the comments run neutral to supportive. "The facts are laid bare for anyone to see"....oh really. I'm guessing you haven't had a chance to read everything, yet. Please take the time. This person was no conservative. And I know one thing: he was sick. Since when does he have to be aligned with a "cause"? Only to smear a group? how tolerant of you and your ilk.

DRed| 7.25.11 @ 3:39PM

If this manifesto is genuine, he called for a conservative revolution against cultural marxists and multiculturists, he hated feminists, and saw muslim immigration as a dire threat to christian civilization. What more would he have to do to be right wing in your mind?

Purple Lips| 7.25.11 @ 3:53PM

He also quoted the Unabomber quite extensively. I don't have to educate you on Ted K's politics do I?

DRed| 7.25.11 @ 4:12PM

Hopefully Ted K will be flattered and send this asshole something in the mail.

Brievik described himself as a conservative and a nationalist and is obviously violently opposed to a multi-cultural society. And then you have the fact that he slaughtered a bunch of left wing kids because he viewed them as cultural traitors, and it's pretty clear that Brievik was a right winger.

Alan Brooks| 7.25.11 @ 5:34PM

"Hopefully Ted K will be flattered and send this asshole something in the mail."

Nick| 7.25.11 @ 11:39PM

DRed,

"Brievik described himself as a conservative [...]."

So what? True conservatives condemn the heinous crimes of this maniac.

Unlike liberals, who defend their comrades when the do likewise, e.g., Bill Ayers and the Weather Underground, or the Black Panthers.

Or, they concoct elaborate Vast Right-Wing Conspiracies in order to paint their comrades as victims, e.g., Lee Harvey Oswald and Sirhan Sirhan.

Brievik is the exception that proves the rule that conservatives are peaceful and believe in the rule of law. Unlike lefty scum.

DRed| 7.26.11 @ 12:04AM

I see-violence supported by right wing ideology proves that conservatives are peaceful and believe in the rule of law. That's brilliant.

Nick| 7.26.11 @ 11:28PM

DRed,

No, this was violence supported by a deranged mind, not "right wing ideology." Again, it is you lefties who kill, repeatedly, and justify it by your politics.

When you liberals decide to rein in your comrades, then, maybe, you can lecture the conservatives.

Until then, just shut-up, if you don't want to be called onto the carpet for your hypocrisy, okay?

There 2 things to note on this. It may have been note above.

1. This article in the New York Times is also, par for the course with liberal/socialists/statis at the times and part of the Obama team. They which to spear Christians so they can lump them with Religious extremist so they can lump us all together as evil. That way they can save us from our bad religious ways into the inlighted views they have.

2. Islam has always been violent right from the very beginning with there profet Mohumand. The only thing that has changed is the tactics. So even if he claimed to be a Christian there is a big difference between Islam and Christianity/Jews. They can justify what they do from the Koran where as this nut job never could.

And you would describe the Crusades as what? A kindly mission to politely ask the Turks to vacate Palestine? A humanitarian mission? Please just a bit of fairness here.

What about the chuch's "Doctrine of Just War"?

All the religions you mention have raised bloody hands in the past.

Occam's Tool| 7.25.11 @ 6:49PM

The Crusades were a counter attack. Says this Jew. Review Tours, and the battles that lead to that, or Byzantium's problems.

prestonsbrooks| 7.25.11 @ 5:37PM

It's obvious due to the high death toll it was a bunch of statists. They had to wait for the gubbermint to rescue them. It's a sad irony that socialism has claimed more victims. Had they been conservatives, the guy would have been found shot and stabbed 200 times after claiming only a couple of victims. We should call Socialists the Kamikazee Party,

Mike| 7.25.11 @ 6:26PM

That's right. I'm sure exactly what Norway needs right now is you insulting them. When 9/11 happened, were other countries making fun of American's poor airport security? If I recall correctly, they actually showed a shred of decency.

Nick| 7.26.11 @ 12:03AM

Mike,

"When 9/11 happened, were other countries making fun of American's poor airport security?"

Yes, like all those Arabs dancing in the streets of Gaza and the West Bank?

TheRightIsAnythingBut| 7.25.11 @ 5:51PM

Wow, welcome to Planet Earth, prestonsbrooks. I don't know what it's like where you're from but we humans employ compassion, logic, and facts.

----------------BOTTOM LINE-------------------

----Looks like yet another from the Julian Assange
'special breeding program'.

And this coupled with the designer photos, and
many reports of 'other gunmen' seen, to say nothing of the
uncanny 'White Al Quaeda' timing
and Mossad trimmings ---it's sure looking like
yet more custom made, chain pulling horror at
the ready service of 'the agenda'.

ALEX JONES called it weeks before, and even specially cited the
likeliness of such an event just the day before.

Meanwhile, as Tony Blair and co. call openly
for the end of their culture, and as the death toll
from the drug violence in Globalist collapsed
Mexico climbs well past Viet Nam -----FOX 'News'
continues to do its part in short circuiting revelatory
consciousness of who, and what's at the helm.

The One Who Runs Like a Duck| 7.25.11 @ 7:50PM

Buenos dias, RCV, Dred, Anything Butt, Kingofthedebt, and Mike. I have been campaigning in front of Hispanic organizations and today it payed off big. I was given the honorary title Pendejo Obama. It means "wise one" in Mexican. They love my programs and could see what they have done for their once prosperous communities. My gay trolls have been doing the one's work today. We are getting our butts handed to us on the debt talks so here you guys are trying to make political hay out of a nut job in Norway killing a bunch of children. Well done. No tragedy should be ever be wasted as you know. You are exactly on script, just like when Gabrielle Giffords was shot. It must have been the Tea Party or some other radical conservative like the Unabomber. Boy are we ever tiring. Do you think that this kind of demagoguery will ever be punished? Or even fact checked? After Boehner fired me I have lots of time on my hand. I have been practicing my signature for when we cave. Wind farms and high speed rail cost big bucks and really don't deliver that much. I have never been that good with numbers but we had a briefing today that showed me their relative cost. I can see how some might think it was a blatant payoff to supporters but I want to assure you that I was totally aware of this and just made some adding mistakes. Anybody could be off my three orders of magnitude. I am thinking that it was probably a big mistake to base my entire energy policy on them. Did you guys notice that I been referring to my insufficient offers on entitlement reform as making these programs more sustainable? What does that mean besides that they are unsustainable? I worry that our word game tricks are not getting it done anymore. Oh well, there is always golf for people like me. We will let the little people try to figure out what to do with my ruined economy. Hasta la vista, mi maricones.

Occam's Tool| 7.25.11 @ 10:02PM

The one who runs---I thought it was "Puta" Obama. Yes, "wise one" in MEXICAN.

You, my man, are a riot. Much appreciate after dealing with The Ron Paul Defender from the Committee to Liberate and Integrate all Teaparty Organizations to Ruin Israeli Supporters--- all day. ;)

The Mighty Merganser| 7.25.11 @ 11:09PM

De nada. Puta is just another synonym for an extraordinarily wise human being, one willing to sell that wisdom to anybody. I find the use of the feminine provocative but maybe appropriate for our first metro-sexual president. With respect to President Obama you can use them interchangeably. Do you know the similar expressions in Austrian?

RCV| 7.25.11 @ 11:32PM

Sorry, Occam, but I don't find your flippant levity on this board very funny. The Norwegien mothers and fathers who lost their children to this terrorist are every bit as deserving of your sympathy and respect as the Israeli parents who lost their children to Palestinian terrorists.

Truth to Power| 7.26.11 @ 12:00AM

This is about making fun of progressives like yourself who always coldly and without compassion try to exploit tragedy for petty political gain. It is not working for you anymore and that probably accounts for your current frustration. Within a day those that tried to paint Breivik as a Christian are discovered to be just bigots like yourself. It is ironic that the same folks were very puzzled by the motives of Major "Allah Akbar" Hassan can spot a Christian motive instantly. Take your phony act elsewhere.

RCV| 7.26.11 @ 1:45AM

Thanks for the explanation. I was fooled for a minute by your flawless imitation of someone just totally devoid of an ounce of humanity.

Truth to Power| 7.26.11 @ 7:48AM

Stop projecting. When you first instinct is compassion you don't look for a political angle. You lefties do this over and over and think nobody notices. Take your phony act elsewhere. Nobody is buying here.

John II| 7.25.11 @ 11:16PM

Under Norwegian law, Breivik will get a maximum of 100 days of imprisonment for each person he murdered. The issue this time, and perhaps every time, isn't precisely Islamism or muddled responses to Islamism. The issue is a degenerate Western Europe which, in its roundabout way, holds human life in deeper contempt than do the murderous jihadists. So that creeps like Breivik get a pass from their own targets.

It's all rather complicated in a rather predictably and therefore simply convoluted way.

And now back to any of the Thin Man flicks, in which the bad guy routinely turns out to be an apparent good guy.

Hebe| 7.25.11 @ 11:17PM

Stay tuned and try being open-minded. There's more to come.

America is becoming more anti-Islam, too. Since I have started reading books about the mess that is Islam, I'm starting to feel America needs to take some steps to break the Islam threat for good.

POST American| 7.26.11 @ 11:38PM

--------------------BOTTOM LINE-------------------

After this latest Freemasonic sourced horror,
AGAIN, time to clear the Freemasonry OUT
of your churches ---NOW.

Time to call out Freemasonry (and its public
face in the 'benny violent' TAX FREE foundations) and ALLLLL their legions
of controllers, handlers and operatives
across the establishment.

And for all of you deluded porch Masons,
time, high time, for you to choose between
genuine Christian doctrine and grace ----OR
the 'Doctrine of Works' Social Darwinism,
EUGENICS, and the Freemasonic ideal of
'benny violence'...
