The execrable Charles Johnson of Little Green Footballs has been going out of his way lately to connect Pamela Geller of Atlas Shrugs to Anders Breivik, the Norway shooter. Pamela Geller is anti-Islam and so was Breivik, and Breivik mentions Geller in his manifesto, therefore, 2 + 2 = 5 and Breivik and Geller were buddies and comrades in arms. The left wants the public to believe that Breivik was somehow inspired by Geller's "Islamophobia" into committing his murderous rampage.

The truth is, Charles Johnson angered Anders Breivik and provided at least some of Breivik's motivation to strike out. Breivik wrote in his manifesto:

I have watched, for the better part of a year, a number of decent human beings including, but not limited to, Pamela Geller, Paul Belien, Diana West, the Baron and Dymphna from the Gates of Vienna blog and many others, being at the receiving end of a vicious smear campaign from Charles Johnson and Little Green Footballs which is unlike anything I have seen in my life. After engaging in an insane witch-hunt on imaginary Fascists, whose ranks seem to grow every month, Mr. Johnson now suddenly chooses to look the other way in silence when very real Fascists use violence to silence their critics in a major Western city. I admit that makes me angry, and I think I have the right to be so.

The time has now come for Mr. Johnson to apologise in public to the numerous people he has smeared since the fall of 2007, starting with the ones I have mentioned above. It's not their credibility that's on the line here. It's his. If he continues to undermine those confronting Islamic infiltration, it will become increasingly difficult for LGF to present itself as an anti-Jihad website at all. At some point, the rapidly shrinking number of people in the northern hemisphere who haven't been banned from the site yet will be forced to ask themselves whether the website and its owner have simply switched teams and joined the Dark Side.
The only thing Breivik said about Geller in his 1546 page manifesto is that Geller "is a decent human being." Only the worse kind of liar would attempt to translate that simple opinion into a basis for Breivik's rampage.

Who, then, is responsible for moving Breivik to violence?  Consider the logic of the following two sentences and decide which one makes sense:

Breivik's Thought:  Which one is more likely to be true?
  1. I think Pamela Geller is a decent human being, therefore I will shoot a lot of liberals.
  2. I think liberals (like Charles Johnson) are engaged in a vicious smear campaign of conservatives, therefore I will shoot a lot of liberals.
I think it is clear which of these possible scenarios is responsible for Breivik's anger and resulting rampage:  example number 2.  It is clear that Charles Johnson added to Breivik's growing anger at the left's constant smears of conservatives and CJ no doubt added to Breivik's belief that dialogue and democracy were futile (as Breivik stated in his manifesto -- see prior post).

In the vile argument started by the left, "who is responsible for pushing Breivik over the edge?" the answer is clear: dirty tricks, smears, and lies of the left are what did the trick. And Charles Johnson of Little Green Footballs added to that effort and deserves a portion of the blame for the violence that followed.

You can view Norwegian news videos of scenes of the massacre at this link.

One of the videos shows Breivik walking among the dead at the edge of the island.  Click on the white-on-red arrow at the top of the bottom half of the screen, showing the island.  The video is very short.

Another video shows bodies floating in the water, and still another shows devastation from Breivik's fertilizer bomb.

Anders Behring Breivik
I obtained a pdf copy of the political manifesto of Anders Behring Breivik, the Norway shooter and mass-murderer of over 100 Norwegians this week.  I converted it to Word format and have extracted several key passages that shed light on Breivik's mindset.

Breivik's manifesto contains much truth about the advance of cultural Marxism and the brainwashing of the West with multiculturalism and mind control, i.e., "political correctness."  However, Breivik discloses a growing alienation from democratic processes, which he felt were too weak and too compromised to be an effective avenue for redress of conservative grievances.  He broaches the subject of violence this way:
War or armed resistance has traditionally always been used as a last resort, used when dialogue has proven to be ineffective. The justification for use of armed resistance against the European cultural Marxist/multiculturalist systems is tied to the outlook for cultural conservative political success. You have to ask yourself; is it remotely possible under the current conditions that a conservative, monocultural political party will ever gain substantial political influence? An increasing number of Europeans are opening their eyes to the reality that the democratical struggle through dialogue has been lost. The cultural Marxists have institutionalised multiculturalism and have no intention of ever allowing us to exercise any political influence of significance. In theory we, the cultural conservatives of Europe, have become slaves under an oppressive, tyrannical, extreme left-wing system with absolutely no hope of reversing the damage they have caused. At least not democratically..
To his question of  "is it remotely possible under the current conditions that a conservative, monocultural political party will ever gain substantial political influence?"  I have to answer, "no."  However, that terrible truth in no way supports Breivik's criminal solution, the mass murder of innocents.

Breivik continues his rationalization of violence:
It is meaningless to participate in the democratical process when you are not allowed to raise important issues without being subjected to political and social persecution through stigmatisation and ridicule. It is time to acknowledge that we, the cultural conservatives of Western Europe, are deceiving ourselves to believe that it is remotely possible to change the system democratically.

The continuation of the ongoing peaceful dialogue with the cultural Marxists/multiculturalists only serves to further diminish our demographical advantages. They are growing stronger while we are being weakened every year. It is counter-productive, even lethal to waste another five decades on meaningless dialogue while we are continuously losing our demographical advantage. We have never and will never be allowed to ever exercise any influence. The cultural Marxist/multiculturalist elites nationally and in Brussels have for the last five decades created a resilient system whose objective is to ridicule, persecute, harass and silence us. They will continue to systematically marginalise us until the day when we are no longer a threat to them.

The following arguments will further underline why any democratical or peaceful cultural conservative victory of significance is impossible...
After Timothy McVeigh blew up the federal building in Oklahoma, his violence was blamed on "right wing rhetoric."  However, his violence was really based on leftwing, governmental extremism at both Waco and Ruby Ridge.  This is not to justify his evil act, but to provide an accurate description of his motivations.

Now we have Anders Behring Breivik, another individual of McVeigh's ilk.  His violence will again be blamed on "right wing rhetoric," but once again his actions are based on leftist political activities and a feeling of hopelessness in bringing change through democratic processes.  Breivik's huge crime was largely caused by Gramscian  leftist political strategy, which has been highly successful in undermining western culture and institutions over the past 75 years.  Now, in response to that crime, we can expect more Gramscian propaganda and a continued feeling of alienation by conservative nationalists, who will be vilified once again for resisting the death of the West, and again painted as mad men bent on violence, of whom Breivik is but the most recent example.

Those on the left should resist the temptation to make political hay out of this tragedy. It is the politics of smear and personal destruction that are leading us to a place where some may see violence as the only possible way to bring about needed change.

The left manufactured Anders Behring Breivik.  It is they who should take a long look in the mirror.

Very strange happenings this week. A reader and commenter at the respected blog Gates of Vienna committed mass murder in Norway.  Gates of Vienna reports:

The mass murderer at Utøya is now said to have been a Norwegian named Anders Behring Breivik. He is reported to have posted frequent comments at various anti-jihad websites up until sometime last year. The Scandinavians tell me that these comments showed mainstream counterjihad sentiments, with no incitements to violence or evidence of homicidal insanity.
Indeed, the shooter had revealed himself in public comments that he was pro-Israel, anti-Nazi, anti-racist and anti-Jihad.  He publicly disparaged "ideologies of hate" like Communism, Nazism and Islam.

In spite of his reasonable public statements, Breivik then dressed himself in a policeman's uniform and began to execute civilians at a summer camp in Norway, many of them children.  These people were not Muslims, as one might surmise.  They were children of the Center-Left labor party of Norway.

What on earth did Breivik hope to accomplish?  Around 100 people are dead, making this one of the worst mass murder episodes in recent history.  There is no rational explanation for these deeds.  They were acts of a deranged mind.

Crazy people come from all walks of life, apparently.  They can explode without warning and begin killing people.  There is almost nothing we can do to stop them, except possibly passing right-to-carry laws.  When the only one with a gun is mentally deranged, those without guns find themselves at a distinct disadvantage.  Like the dead in Norway.

Almost as bad will be the leftist/liberal hateful propaganda that will be born of this.  Pamela Geller had a worthy quote on this.  She said:
But this is war. And the left is vicious, amoral and depraved. They mean to win, and that is the only way they know how.
