So, the world’s favourite teenager Malala Yousafzai can now add a Nobel Peace Prize to the Taliban bullet as things she has famously received and which qualify her as a global political sage. Does her talent for passively receiving things ever end?

Perhaps Yousafzai might next get run down by a lorry driven by a White Supremacist and immediately become spokesperson for Western race-relations.

I don’t enjoy having to use this silly tone to speak of someone so young. I must use it though because feelings are being demanded of me that I don’t have. I am being ordered to feel awe for someone who hasn’t achieved anything and who is being fattened by book-deals and political funds.

The institution responsible for the latest cheque in Yousafzai’s swelling bank account comes as no great shock. The Nobel Peace Prize committee has suffered for many years now from a dire lack of credibility. Ever since the awarding of the honour to (the then virginal) President Barack Obama, the honour has had a light, floaty, cosmetic feel to it – almost as if it was a means of political expression rather than of reward.

The choice of Yousafzai belongs undoubtedly to the same downward trend.

I should clarify that I don’t have anything personal against Malala. Or at least no more than I have against professional psychics, internet healers or astrologers. She is the kindly target of a storm of stupid emotion. That’s all. It’s not something I can either encourage or endorse.

Nevertheless, it has been uncomfortable to witness people I respect (friends among them) fall for Yousafzai’s sweet-smelling hypnotic. There have even been arguments put to me that I am somehow ‘jealous’ of the political starlet, or that I resent her for other base motivations. That is the purest nonsense. Malala is obviously cashing in at a furious pace, but this is no more offensive to me than the success of any other celebrity. What does miff me is that while Victoria Beckham or Miley Cyrus do not (rightly) enjoy either moral respect or political credit, Malala receives them by the bucketload. And for what?

If Yousafzai truly wanted to earn the respect and power she already possesses, she would leave Britain and return to her native Pakistan. She would stand as a Pakistani MP or set up a local organisation dedicated to the right of children to attend school there.

What possible use can she be to her professed cause in Birmingham or New York? The West is in no need of being lectured on the right of education. We already have that in place and have for some time.

Perhaps behind all the public virtues presented by Ms Yousefzai there is just a normal girl growing steadily accustomed to the pleasures of money, silk curtains and chauffer driven limousines.

Being Right and Doing Wrong: Breivik’s Jail Correspondence.

Shortly before he embarked on a gun and bomb rampage through Oslo, Anders Behring Breivik emailed a 1500 page ‘manifesto’ to over a thousand ‘contacts’ he had amassed via the internet. The text – entitled – ‘2083: A European Declaration of Independence’ – must now rank among the most downloaded and least read of modern political tracts.

The day after the shootings occurred, I downloaded it myself and attempted to scroll-read it on my laptop. Many headache pills later, I gave up. The compendium is too long. Life is too short. In any case, I didn’t need to read much of it to understand his thesis: i.e – that Muslims are set to conquer, via natural demographic growth, many European cities, and ultimately have a shot at taking over the continent entirely. To all intents and purposes, this was already my understanding.

Breivik is now in jail (or whatever Norwegians call a ‘jail’), and is kept for the most part in a segregated cell. His only connection with the outside world is via written correspondence.

Although a murderer should ideally be ignored (having destroyed his own moral legitimacy), I must admit to reading many of Breivik’s letters via transcriptions on the internet. This may be nothing more than morbid curiosity on my part, but I also believe these letters provide valuable insights we can all learn from.

Here is a lengthy excerpt from a letter written by Breivik to a girl called ‘Daisy’.

‘I lost/sacrificed my old family and friends on 22/7 (Note: the day of the attacks), so now and in the future the people I correspond with are in fact the closest thing I have to a family. Don’t let this freak you out though, as you should know I’m corresponding with many brothers and sisters worldwide. I’m currently living in isolation and will probably live in isolation for many many years. This is unproblematic as obviously, this was my own choice. I’m used to living ascetically so it will not be difficult to continue living this way. In fact, in many ways its exactly like living as a monk confined to a monastery. You have sacrificed all worldly goods and many other freedoms but you have gained a focused and balanced mind which is not plagued by greed, desires and lust – and you are allowed to work. I think if I say this enough times I will believe it, haha, but in a way its true enough, but it will take time getting used to and it may be challenging. We once had a tradition of selfless sacrifice in Christian Europe, and I hope I will contribute to re-establish this tradition among nationalists and cultural conservatives. The muslims have this tradition of selfless sacrifice, and this is why they are so dangerous, this while too many Europeans are decadent and selfish, with a lack of the ideals required for revolutionary change. But as we know so well, the wonderful thing is that multiculturalism is a self-defeating ideology so we know the unknown, the future belongs to us, it’s just difficult to predict the exact time it will happen.’

Throughout this text, Breivik casts himself as a classical hero; one who has given up his freedom for an honourable cause. I don’t believe (from reading this and many other letters) that he is bluffing. He really does believe it. At his trial Breivik said that the Norwegian state should give him a ‘medal’. At the time I put this down as sarcasm, but  maybe it wasn’t.

Another notable aspect of the text is the intelligence of its author. Breivik isn’t a fool, and nor is he (as the BBC had him) a video-games freak who simply got lost in another world. He seems to be a very bright, introspective and clear-thinking man, who chose (for whatever reason) the wrong solution to real problems.

When Breivik says ‘Europeans are decadent and selfish, with a lack of the ideals required for revolutionary change.’ – he is correct of course. But there is surely a middle ground (morally and practically) that we can move into. Massacres achieve nothing, except propaganda for the other side.

When Muslim terrorists attack Europe, the Counter-Jihad movement stands to benefit. When Breivik-style plots are revealed or carried out, this works in favour of the Muslims. Someone of Breivik’s intelligence should really have worked this out.

More recent than the quoted letter, Breivik registered a request for the formation of new Norwegian political party to be called “The Norwegian fascist party and Nordic league’. According to a transcribed screenshot of the text itself, the party’s purpose was to achieve “democratic fascist power in Norway to win parliamentary support for the establishment of a Norwegian-Nordic indigenous state in south-Østfold, named, Norway Yggdra.”

It is possible that Breivik is being satirical here, but far from certain. Regardless, “Democratic fascism” is an absurd concept and if it isn’t intended as satire then Breivik has clearly never read ‘La dottrina del fascismo’.

Anders Behring Breivik is evidence (if any were required) that knowledge is no guarantee of wisdom, and that one can both be right and choose to do wrong. His letters reveal a far more intelligent and (perhaps one shouldn’t say it) likable man than the crazed psychopath of July 2011, but his has been a wasted commitment and a pinpoint lesson in how not to combat the problem he correctly identified.

Thoughts on Anders Behring Breivik

On July 22nd, 2011, I was brewing coffee in a b&b when I turned on the small television in my room and saw the city centre of Oslo filled with a cloud of blackish-silver smoke.

The BBC newsreader talking over the pictures was calm, if slightly disorientated. He – like everyone else – had no explanation for what was happening and so he mumbled some half-baked speculation instead.

“One has to remember that this isn’t perhaps as strange as it seems.” He said, “Norway has a small military contingent in Afghanistan. Al-Qaeda are a global network. This could be a warning that they can strike anywhere.”

I suppose looking back there was some faint chance he was correct. Islamist terrorists had struck Stockholm not too long before the Oslo tragedy. But surely the method should have given reason to doubt this rather easy explanation.

The BBC was already aware of the type of attack that had occurred – a sophisticated truck-bomb, with reports of the truck being empty upon detonation. That meant it wasn’t a suicide bombing (Al-Qaeda’s method of choice) and that the bomb must have been either placed on a timer, or set off by remote-control.

Now, Al-Qaeda are not stupid. Too many people believe otherwise. But they are not James-Bond supervillains either. The greatest attack they ever pulled off – 9/11 – was brilliantly organised, but required no special training or technical expertise beyond the ability to steer a plane towards concrete.

The Oslo attack didn’t seem to fit the AQ profile, and sure enough the security ‘expert’ the presenter interviewed on the phone, sounded unsure of whether they were looking at anything connected with Islam at all. If they were, he stated, this was a very new, very worrying evolution of method.

I was reminded of the IRA. The blast looked remarkably similar to the car-bomb placed outside the BBC many years earlier. Was there a Norwegian separatist movement? An Environmental extremist movement?

It was only on the third time of guessing that the words ‘right-wing’ and ‘McVeigh’ appeared in my mind. After this I was certain.

I went out to meet a friend. After an hour passed, I checked back at the BBC news site on my phone. The pieces were slotting gruesomely together. A ‘second attacker’ was reported at an island youth-camp. He was apparently dressed as a police officer and was shooting anything that moved.

Still (pathetically) the BBC tried to link this to Norway’s involvement in ISAF.

By the evening, and after the single perpetrator had been ID’d, everything else quickly unraveled. A youtube video, a single ‘tweet’, and a 1500 page ‘manifesto’. It was the first ever anti-Jihad terrorist attack on Western soil.

For Leftists who always believed the Islamist threat to be a right-wing psychosis, this attack was almost too good to be true.

“You always say ‘we Islamophobes may be offensive but at least we don’t kill people’, well now we know you do!” One youtube uploader ranted.

“People on the right used to say ‘when was the last time you saw a Christian killing people for his faith’, well just a few hours ago we saw it!” said another.

Given the scale of the tragedy, it would have been immoral not to address these points seriously.

Perhaps the Islamist threat had been overstated…. Perhaps we’d used too much emotive language… Perhaps we’d exaggerated it….

A year and a half on from Anders Behring Breivik’s experiment, the Counter-Jihad movement is considerably weaker than before it.

The word ‘Norway’ is now enough to prevent many socially squeamish conservatives from talking of Cultural Marxism, the Muslim demographic threat to Europe, the rape-wave in Sweden or indeed anything mentioned by the killer.

Breivik’s youtube video – 2083 – uses photographic memes to illustrate important Counter-Jihad concepts like ‘Eurabia’, ‘Political correctness’, the influence of the Frankfurt school etc…

To mention these now is to remind people of a massacre.

What this what he was aiming for?

I am not a moderate on the Islam in Europe debate. I used to believe in integration as a solution, but now I am strongly in favour of a humane, organised repatriation of Muslim populations from Europe to whichever Muslim country will take them. Many European Muslims are educated above the standards of the Islamic world, and would be of benefit to whichever country they went to. Europe would also be obliged morally to give a generous financial sum to those that leave voluntarily, as well as to the countries which recieve them. This isn’t a million miles away from the measures proposed by Breivik in his manifesto. By his actions he has made such measures less, not more, likely.

The killer is now incarcerated in a cushy but secure prison in Norway. He has no internet access but regularly answers written correspondence from some disturbingly adoring fans (often skinheads, often Russian). None of the killer’s letters display any sign of remorse either for the teenagers he slaughtered or for the movement and set of values whose reputation he has tarnished.

If I could interview him, my question would be simple – “What good did you think this would do?”

The youtube video suggested some half-baked belief in a chain reaction. A drip that unleashes a downpour….

But did he really expect people to take that bloodbath as a positive inspiration? Did he think that the Counter-Jihad movement would be legitimised by it, or strengthened?

Well it hasn’t been.

The Norway killer, with his embrace of racist and totalitarian ideas, has made it much harder to speak up for such vital things as female emancipation, gay rights, animal rights, and secular democracy.

If Islam overtakes Europe, it will not be for a lack of popular opposition. More likely it will be because the resistance was unable to shake off a toxic connection with extreme views. The kind that divide unbelievers along arbitrary lines.

The kind that left dead teenagers on a heart-shaped island.
