It was only a matter of time before some individual or group was bound to go violent in what they would see as their own holy war against home-grown quislings. The surprise is that it took this long.
Yes, the powers that be will crack down even harder against anyone they deem out of step with their anti-semitic brand of multiculturalism. And perhaps they’ll bury opposition even deeper for some time to come. But I believe there is a growing resentment and fear, among many native Norwegians and Europeans in general, of what is now being seen as a genuine threat to their very Western way of life.
The elite in Europe may run things, but like all ruling classes, they’re usually the last to sense the directional shift in the winds of change. And I wouldn’t assume that this act of terrible violence will automatically be a major blow to those struggling to preserve Western culture in Europe. Look what came out of the 9/11 tragedy here in the US–certainly it woke many of us up to the dangers of radical Islam but it also sparked a major campaign of appeasement.
I think there will be lots of introspection within the Norwegian population and the public courtroom trial of the man accused of these horrendous deeds will, if nothing else, keep the multicultural topic front and center for quite awhile.
