Defiant Norway gunman asks court for 'immediate release'
2012-02-07
[Daily Nation (Kenya)] The Norway gunman who killed 77 people in twin attacks in July asked an Oslo court Monday to immediately free him and demanded the country's highest military award, sparking derision from survivors.

Showing no sign of remorse, 32-year-old Anders Behring Breivik said the massacre was "a preventive attack against state traitors" who were guilty "ethnic cleansing" due to their support for a multi-cultural society.

"I do not accept imprisonment. I demand to be immediately released," the rightwing thug told the court before it ordered that he be held in detention until his trial opens on April 16.

He also asked to be decorated with a bravery medal, saying: "I want the Norwegian army to recommend me for a War Cross with three swords."
Hollow laughter erupted in the rows where several dozen survivors and families of the victims were seated, when Behring Breivik twice demanded his immediate release.

Wearing a dark suit and pale blue tie, Behring Breivik entered the courtroom and touched his heart with his handcuffed fists, then lifted them straight out toward those seated in the courtroom, in what his lawyer Geir Lippestad described as a "right-wing thug salute."

"He wanted to show the far right that he is one of them," Lippestad said.

With his blond hair parted on the side and a thin strip of beard along the jawline, Behring Breivik refused to plead guilty but admitted to committing the acts he said were necessary to "defend the ethnic Norwegian population."

"We, the Norwegian resistance movement, will not just stand by and watch while we are made a minority in our own country," he said, adding that he had acted "to defend his people, his culture, his religion."

He also asked to be decorated with a bravery medal, saying: "I want the Norwegian army to recommend me for a War Cross with three swords."

#4  Can't see what the problem releasing him is. Surely he has as much rights as the misunderstanders of religion of peace have, who are apologetically released on a regular basis along with a large damages payments to compensate them for the insult to their "ooman rites" they've had to endure. Doesn't Norway realize they live in a multicultural society where even the natives have as much rights as the exotic imports. They don't want to be seen as judgmental, do they? Surely all cultures are equal, as they are constantly preaching.
Why should he be held to a higher standard than the jihadi are?

#2  The leftist Norwegian government is obviously terrified of him and his ideas. With good reason. He, likely with the help of unknown others, planned and executed a military quality operation, which has likely changed the future course of Norway.

Norway has only 2.7 million people, and has long been a target of leftist internationalism. A primary goal of this is to encourage so much immigration, on the condition that the immigrants politically support the far left, so that the Norwegian people become a minority in their own country. This is a common motif in western Europe, but to which Norway is particularly sensitive.

And, more to the point, the purpose of doing this is so that the far left will have, in effect, a single party socialist state in perpetuity.

The origins of this scheme are old, as the Workers' Youth League (Norway) was founded in 1927 as a socialist-communist response to the creation of the Hitler Jugend in 1922, the purpose of both organizations to create an ideologically pure generation of fanatics to replace the party founders.

The difference being that the WYL had loyalty only to the party and the internationale, not to their nation.

The utter ruthlessness involved in this is striking, but not seen in the WYL, because they are also profound believers in "gradualism". Were Hitler to not have engaged in aggressive war, and only authorized the extermination of a few thousand Jews every year, in a quiet and methodical manner, he could have had his Holocaust and still projected an image of peaceful democracy.

And while the public sees Breivik's victims, they do not see the hundreds of Norwegian innocents who have been raped and killed by immigrants.

But Breivik has thrown a monkey wrench into this scheme. He wiped out the next generation of socialist-communist party leaders in Norway, who have spent years learning precise, ideologically pure ideas. They are irreplaceable.

As such, it almost guarantees that Norway will remain Norwegian, that the socialist-communist left in the medium term will both be handicapped and in political variance from the goals of the internationale, that is, not ideologically pure, and more willing to let reason and common sense, instead of rigid doctrine, control their actions.

And if instead of being declared insane, and put into a drug induced stupor for the rest of his life, Breivik is instead sent to prison, his victory will be complete. Even if he is murdered in prison he will be a martyr for the extreme right, and if not, he will likely still be able to get his ideas out to those of his kind.

And more importantly, to the Norwegian on the street who is only partially aware of increasing numbers of oppressive and criminal foreigners.

#1  What if you used a rail gun-like mechanism to propel the cross through his chin and out the back of his head?
