All the media organs got their marching orders and they are running with it. So transparent.

Too early for instant reactions. Wait a while until this shakes out.

Right.

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

has links to right-wing extremism

What, since this is Reuters, that could mean the Boy Scouts and the NRA.

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.

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

Pym Fortyun was a flaming homosexual euro right wing extremist.

The “right-wing” extremist in Europe is basically neo-nazi’s. See http://www.slideshare.net/gehdenken2009/gathering-of-the-european-rightwing-extremist-movement-presentation

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.
