I also read that when Breivik started shooting down the campers, some of them for a few moments thought it was a skit, a piece of make-believe intended to dramatize how the Israelis shoot down unarmed Palestinian civilians. Wrong-o.
So: (1) First these kids are made the victims of lying propaganda
(2) Then comes Breivik, who actually takes the anti-Zionist lies and transforms them into reality. The word made flesh! He literally does shoot down unarmed civilians.
Got that? First their own Norwegian Labour leaders, their parents, the media, the schools, lie to the kids, slander Israel and its supporters; then Breivik turns it 'true' after all, by killing them.
Their parents, the Labourites, victimized them by falsehood; Breivik did far worse and victimized them by murder. So they are twice victimized.
And then a third thing: now even more Norwegians are convinced that the lies are true: that the Muslims are innocent victims and the anti-jihad movement is run by either psychotics or criminals and probably both.
As Talleyrand would say, it was worse than a crime, it was a blunder.
Breivik cut the legs out from under his own movement, which has now been smeared with the blood of beardless boys and bluejeaned girls and set back for a generation.
Repulsively evil and useless to boot: it certainly illustrates the maxim, "Sin makes you stupid."
IMO the fault lies squarely on the parents for training their kids to be soldiers and traitors. They created the circumstances that made the ideal method of striking back at them through their kids. It is illegal in Norway - guilty until proven innocent - to even protest the rapid Islamization of their country. “Those who make peaceful revolution impossible make violent revolution inevitable.” In light of the circumstances acts such as these are acts of resistance against tyranny, ugly and unfortunate as they are.
Whether it is a blunder remains to be seen. The widespread reporting of the incident and dissemination of the “manifesto” gave his ideas more publicity than any other method could have - remember, he would have been tried and convicted of hate crimes had he attempted to spread his ideas peacefully. Certainly violence has worked extremely well for Islam in spreading their ideas and influence into the West.
