. A shorter URL for the above link: . http://tinyurl.com/3qtdakw . .The baleful effects of the recent attacks in Norway, where Anders Breivik bombed Oslos government district and then gunned down teenagers at a Labour party camp, murdering at least 77 people, have not been limited to that horrific carnage.
.For the atrocity has produced a reaction among people on the political Left in Britain, Europe and the U.S. that is in itself shocking and terrifying.
.Former Norwegian prime minister and current chairman of the Nobel Peace Prize committee Thorbjorn Jagland has said that, in response to the violent attacks, David Cameron and other European leaders should use a more cautious approach when talking about multiculturalism.
.Cameron has said multiculturalism (the doctrine that gives the values of minorities equal status to those of the majority) has failed, and has also talked about Islamist extremism as a cause of terrorism.
.Jagland, however, said leaders would be playing with fire if they continued to use rhetoric that could be exploited by extremists such as Breivik.
.This is because Breiviks so-called manifesto shows that he is violently against mass immigration, multiculturalism and Islamisation and that he wants the forced repatriation of Muslims from Europe and the murder of all who have promoted multiculturalism.
.But to connect such abhorrent ravings with Camerons comments is simply grotesque.
.First and foremost, this is treating Breivik as if his words deserve to be taken seriously and at face value.
.As of now, however, we dont know whether Breivik is psychotic, a psychopath or under the influence of all the drugs he claims to have taken.
.We also dont know what part, if any, his political views actually played in this atrocity.
.After all, since his target was his countrys Labour party one might just as well surmise that he was motivated by hatred of his father, who was a Labour party supporter and who was divorced from Breiviks mother when the killer was a baby.
.In any event, someone who travels to a teenagers summer camp and invites them all to gather round so that he can kill them all cannot be considered rational.
.Yet the former Norwegian premier is treating Breivik as if he is a political terrorist whose words have the authority of a sane and coherent creed.
.Even if he was motivated by hostility to multiculturalism and Islam, it is perverse to suggest that no one should write about these things because some deranged person raving about such ideas has run amok.
