Right.

Cause a liberal news organization in a big liberal nation would never spin the news.

Flipping through the US news channels they’ve abandoned Norway coverage for the debt deal, and they’re not discussing the perp at all.

Hardly seems like an organized media conspiracy.

I totally agree ... but has been many, many hours since the attack. And there has been no information as to the source of the attack on the buildings, nor thge people in the buildings.

On 9/11, by this point in time we already knew the name Mohammed Atta and saw videos of him boarding the plane.

Am I correct in interpreting that “Right Wing” in europe is national socialists?
from wiki:
The Sweden Democrats (or Swedish Democrats, Swedish: Sverigedemokraterna, SD) is a political party in Sweden, founded in 1988. SD describes itself as a nationalist movement although others use the term far-right.

If you hop over to this thread, you’ll see something interesting: the suspect is a Freemason.

Here’s a link to a Norwegian site:

http://www.vg.no/nyheter/innenriks/artikkel.php?artid=10080610

The guy is apparently a self-described nationalist.

Interesting, and being as I don’t subscribe to conspiracy theories, no, the Masons aren’t responsible. Or apparently, in this case, the Muslims.

Nuts is nuts.

I dated a Serbian woman who thought she was right wing till she came to America and discovered she was left wing here. She finally settled for a somewhat centrist position.

If I had known about that plot, I would have run over three guys in the Valencia Motel parking lot that morning.

From my experience, unless you are immediately involved, the smarter thing is to observe, gather information, and make no sudden moves.

“The European right and American right are too very different animals.”

So true. So..why did he just target the Labor Party? Seems the answer can be found there if we look hard enough. He sure didn’t target the leftwing socialists in the Norwegian government that are calling for Norway and the UN to attack Israel. Bet he is a raging anti-semitic.

There really is no real equivalent to the American right in Europe.

American conservatism finds its closest cousins in Australia, Canada, and to some extent in Great Britain.

A bit.

What would be the dream come true is if this had happened in the USA, and was perpetrated by a Tea Partier AND a poster on FR, with a ‘Palin 2012’ bumpersticker on their automobile.

Talk about that tingle in the leg, huh?

Notice how most news reports bent over backwards to describe his ethnicity (because he’s white).

“See, whites can be terrorists too.”

I bet my bottom dollar, either the guy was schizophrenic/mentally ill or is linked to the Muzziggers.

Right, and so was the guy who flew his small plane into an IRS building in TX -- for about 24hrs.

The MSM were gleeful at first - thought they had him pegged as a right-winger. A closer look at his writings proved he was more to the Left than the Right. The MSM suddenly lost interest.

The source is probably Facebook. The page there is phony as Obama's social security number.

"MUZZIE, agreed all wise men of Free Republic early on. Who am I to doubt them? They won't eat this for dinner!"

Getting very smug over the Leftwing media's "Timothy McVeigh" angle on this? Maybe you should first deal with what even Clinton's anti-terror csar had to admit about the Oklahoma City Bombing and al Qaeda:

“Another conspiracy theory intrigued me because I could never disprove it. The theory seemed unlikely on its face: Ramzi Yousef or Khalid Sheik Muhammad had taught Terry Nichols how to blow up the Oklahoma Federal Building. The problem was that, upon investigation, we established that both Ramzi Yousef and Nichols had been in the city of Cebu on the same days. I had been to Cebu years earlier; it is on an island in the central Philippines. It was a town in which word could have spread that a local girl was bringing her American boy friend home and that the American hated the U.S. government.”

“Yousef and Khalid Sheik Muhammad had gone there to help create an al Qaeda spinoff, a Philippine affiliate chapter, named after a hero of the Afghan war against the Soviets, Abu Sayaff. Could the al Qaeda explosives expert have been introduced to the angry American who proclaimed his hatred for the U.S. Government? We do not know, despite some FBI investigation. We do know that Nichols’ bombs did not work before his Philippine stay and were deadly when he returned. We also know that Nichols continued to call Cebu long after his wife returned to the United States. The final coincidence is that several al Qaeda operatives had attended a radical Islamic conference a few years earlier in, of all places, Oklahoma City.”

-Richard Clarke (Clinton's anti-terror czar) “Against All Enemies”, p. 127 (LINK) ]

Put that together with the fact that multiple witnesses who saw McVeigh in Oklahoma City before the bombing saw him with a hispanic {middle-east?} looking man who was not Nichols(“John Doe 2”/"the 3rd terrorist").

Conservatives in Norway are further to the left than American Democrats are. Most people on this forum would be stunned to learn that conservatives in Europe support things like government healthcare, for example.

This Breivik person has posted against multiculturalism and marxism for a long period of time (and appeared mostly coherent) so it’s probably for real...

The leftists will no doubt use this for political purposes, but he does seem like a nut from our side. And through his actions he has done as much damage to Norway as Quisling once did. May he burn in hell...

Yes, remember that first 24 hrs? The networks, cnn, msnbc, Hufpo and especially reuters and ap - all had him pegged as a right wing nutcase. Oh, he's a lefty? . .What? . . then they focused on he's just nuts. . oh and btw, could we safely say Obama is a national socialist? He's the head of this nation and does anyone doubt he's at least a socialist. Hmmmm, let's see, who was that other guy who was a national socialist? . .
