LittleHurt05 Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Situation seems to keep getting worse. It started with a bomb in downtown Oslo and 7 dead. Then the shooting report had 10 more dead. All of a sudden, there are 80 people dead on the island where the shooting was, mostly younger people. Of course, the suspect is a tall blond Norwegian fella, very stereotypical. Seems to be a domestic political act but we will see. Still crazy cause its the biggest act of violence in Norway since World War II. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleHurt05 Posted July 23, 2011 Author Share Posted July 23, 2011 Seems crazy that ONLY 7 people died in the bomb blast in Oslo, yet as many as 80 died in the shootings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleHurt05 Posted July 23, 2011 Author Share Posted July 23, 2011 Seeing the bomb pics, I was surprised only 7 died. But the numbers they are reporting from the camp are awful. He obiously seems to be a homegrown terrorist, we will see if he had any outside influence. God Bless Norge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilMonkey Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Evil exists in people like this. He was ID'ed as Anders Behring Breivik, a local business man, and supposedly no ties to the earlier bombing, which had been claimed by the Ansar al-Jihad al-Alami (the Helpers of the Global Jihad).

EvilMonkey Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 More stories out now claiming that the claim by the Muslim group was a hoax and that the one guy is probably responsible for both.

The Sir Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 By the way, the immediate reaction to the Tucson shootings was that Jared Loughner was some sort of extreme right winger driven to lunacy by Sarah Palin's "bull's eye" ad.

soxsoxsoxsox Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 he sent out a 1500 page work to his facebook followers. pretty crazy stuff: he advocates playing video games such as call of duty for target practice. 7a. Apprehension If you for some reason survive the operation you will be apprehended and arrested. This is the point where most heroic Knights would call it a day. However, this is not the case for a Justiciar Knight. Your arrest will mark the initiation of the propaganda phase. 7b.

That's something that should be swept under the rug regarding this whacko. Not at all. The dude's a murderous whacko and he appears to have held some right wing views. But I just get the feeling that Strange was elated to hear this news that Breivik was a homegrown nutjob, and not a Muslim radical as is to be expected with these sorts of things, and that now he had some more ammunition to argue that rightwingers are the real terrorists. And yes, rightwingers have done terroristic acts just like leftists have (the Weather Underground). Every side has scumbags, for sure. But the vast majority of terrorist actions in recent memory have been committed by followers of Islam. This doesn't change that fact, as much as some people might wish it did.

The first bolded is a stretch but I guess since you're so cynical it's to be expected. The 2nd bolded is something that I don't recall him ever taking as a stance in the 6 years I've been on this site. But I'm sure you'll use this terrible event as some excuse to play the victim card.

lostfan Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Right-wingers have an entire narrative built around being the victim which is hilariously ironic actually. "Liberal bias," "liberal agenda," "government" (even when said government is right-wing), etc. Everyone's always out to get them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sir Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 It seemed to me like SS really wanted to point out this guy's affiliation as soon as possible. But where was he in the Mumbai thread pointing out the characteristics and affiliations of those idiots? Well, the question should be...where would he have been in such a thread, since it didn't get a thread. I just don't get why some people are so insistent on denying that radical Islam is in fact the problem. It's politically correct to an idiotic and dangerous extent.

lostfan Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 The closest I've ever seen anyone (either on this board or really in mainstream channels) saying that radical Islam isn't a problem is people saying "all Muslims aren't terrorists" or not being in support of racial profiling. ...I mean, occasionally you will have a buffoon like Michael Moore saying "there is no terrorist threat" but statements like that aren't really taken seriously.
