Wow. WOW. I've staunchly avoided right-wing analysis of what happened in Norway and the spin and talking points and manipulation of the facts there is STUNNING. Wow.

The right wing reaction is something along the lines of "This really is Islamofascist terrorism since the killer, though anti-Muslim, was obviously inspired by al-Queda, who, after all, invented the ideas of shooting people and setting off bombs."
― President Keyes, Tuesday, 26 July 2011 14:17 (twelve years ago) link
Yes, it's like "this is clearly a reaction to all the anti-Islamic fear we've been stoking and proves we were right to do so, um..."

Just the way in the first sentence the anchor vaguley acknowledges this wasn't Islamic terrorism but then goes on to talk about Islamic terrorism over video of Breivek's destruction is almost artful. (I'm sure this is old news to you veterans of right wing spin but like I said, I generally avoid it and now I'm all amazed.)

Freshman U.S. Rep. Joe Walsh, a tax-bashing Tea Party champion who sharply lectures President Barack Obama and other Democrats on fiscal responsibility, owes more than $100,000 in child support to his ex-wife and three children, according to documents his ex-wife filed in their divorce case in December.

http://thinkprogress.org/security/2011/08/01/284011/pam-geller-race-mixing-breivik-right/
Popular hate blogger Pam Geller has received scrutiny in recent days as the public became aware that the right-wing terrorist in Norway, Anders Behring Breivik, had praised her blog and thoroughly cited her writing in his political manifesto. After a number of blogs made the connection, as well as the New York Times, the Atlantic, and other major outlets, Geller became incensed and began lashing out at her critics.In a post defending herself yesterday, Geller — who has called Obama “President Jihad” and claimed that Arab language classes are a plot to subvert the United States — reached a new low. Geller justifies Breivik’s attack on the Norwegian Labour Party summer youth camp because she says the camp is part of an anti-Israel “indoctrination training center.” She says the victims would have grown up to become “future leaders of the party responsible for flooding Norway with Muslims who refuse to assimilate, who commit major violence against Norwegian natives including violent gang rapes, with impunity, and who live on the dole.”To get her point across, Geller posts a picture of the youth camp children Breivik targeted. The picture was taken on the Utøya island camp about 24 hours before Breivik killed over 30 children, so it is likely Geller is mocking many of the victims. Under the picture, Geller writes: “Note the faces which are more MIddle [sic] Eastern or mixed than pure Norwegian.” View a screen shot (click to enlarge) of Geller’s blog post below:http://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/geller.jpgCould Geller’s outburst of smears be a distraction against mounting evidence that she might have communicated with Breivik in the past? A post from Geller in 2007 reprints a reader-submitted letter in which an anonymous Norwegian complains of Muslim immigration and boasts that he is “stockpiling and caching weapons, ammunition and equipment.” In the comment section, Geller claims that she provided anonymity to the reader to protect him from being prosecuted. Although Geller recently deleted the ammunition line from her post, a cached version is available. As Glenn Greenwald notes, “If this were an attack by a Muslim group, and a Muslim had something like this on his/her website, the FBI and multiple other groups would be swarming.”

hm i dunno what you mean by 'israeli culture'. the state is sure armed, but i have no idea what personal gun ownership is like in israel.
anway, like i said, that kind of organization is more interesting as a niche lifestyle service thing than for any point of view. though i gather the JFPO has accused the NRA of being sellouts for not advocating the outright shutdown of the BATFE...

pretty much everyone in israel is trained to shoot a gun bc mandatory military service. i don't think it's nearly as fetishized as it is in america tho. no "gun rights" movement.

thx, mordy, i knew in the abstract that the israeli people and military are more closely venn-diagrammed than ours, but the lived experience or legal stuff, not so much.
interestingly the JPFO website touts the history of "gun control" as having racist origins, which is true enough afaik -- anti-panther type stuff.
― goole, Thursday, 4 August 2011 21:10 (twelve years ago) link
Horsefeathers, early gun control is as much about keeping the rabble from power as anything. It's class not race (at least in semi-homogenous countries where this stuff started).

have you guys been paying attention to the whole foods ramadan thing?
Here’s a tip, Whole Foods: there is NOTHING “cosmopolitan” about Islam. In fact, Islam is the antonym to cosmopolitan. Retro is in. Retro back to the year 622 and the values of savages will NEVER be in.Whole Foods . . . For the Organically Conscious Jihadist. Way more humane because, hey, “free range chickens” can run away from the IED. allahu natural fruitbar.
