Breivik and totalitarian democrats

Last Friday morning, Anders Breivik burst onto the international screen when he carried out a monstrous act of terrorism against his fellow Norwegians. Breivik bombed the offices housing the Norwegian government with the intention of murdering its leaders. He then traveled to the Utoeya Island and murdered scores of young people participating in a summer program sponsored by Norway’s ruling party.

In all, last Friday Breivik murdered 76 people.

Most of them were teenagers.

Although he has confessed to his crimes, there are still important questions that remain unanswered.

For instance, we still do not know if he acted alone. Breivik claims that there are multiple cells of his fellow terrorists ready to attack. But so far, no one has found evidence to support his claim. We also still do not know if – for all his bravado – Breivik was acting on his own initiative or as an agent for others.

Finding the answers to these and other questions are is a matter of the highest urgency. For if in fact Breivik is not a lone wolf, then there is considerable danger that additional, perhaps pre-planned attacks may be carried out in the near future. And given the now demonstrated inadequacy of Norway’s law-enforcement arms in contending with terror attacks, the prospect of further attacks should be keeping Norwegian and other European leaders up at night.

In contrast, totalitarian democracies – and totalitarian democrats – do have a messianic temperament and a utopian mission to create a perfect society. And so its members do have hopes of ending debate and argument once and for all. And the ends justify the means. (my addition)

Sounds like the Rats in this country.

When this incident first happened I did a search that lead to a website commenting about it, that turned out to be the NKORS website. This was within minutes of the time I read about the incident.

What does that mean? I am not sure.

Did he build the bombs without outside help. Answer: NO

Who helped him? That is the question.

Is he a lone wolf, that is possible. But not in relation to building the explosives.

Some Swedish newspapers are reporting that he lived in there in 2008. He views became crystalize there and he had a mentor there, not so much in bombmaking but ideology.
