From today's Toronto Red Star editorial:
"The best catharsis Norway can have is to expose a mass murderer for what he is, to publicly refute his twisted ideology and to bring him to justice. The light and air of a public courtroom are the best disinfectants. This case matters to other European countries as well. Rightwing nationalism is a growing scourge that can inspire a lunatic fringe. "
Can you imagine them writing the following?
"The best catharsis America can have is to expose mass murderer Nidal Hasan for what he is, to publicly refute his twisted ideology and to bring him to justice. The light and air of a public courtroom are the best disinfectants. This case matters to European countries as well. Islam is a growing scourge that can inspire a lunatic fringe."
Nope. Me neither.

Ezra Levant Discusses Massacre in Norway
Via Blazing Cat Fur, who has lots more video at the link:And from the comments at Small Dead Animals (via Celestial Junk):
Of course not. Nor will we see any reference to a "noble cause" that was "hijacked". Nor will we see any nuanced statements like "you can't broad brush all critics of Islamic immigration because of the acts of a few." Nor will we see the MSM say "that's not in the Koran" replayed with "that's not in Spencer's writings." Nor will we see any suggestion that we read Spencer's writings for ourselves. The list goes on.
ReplyDeleteThe MSM is overjoyed that they finally have someone with the self-proscribed label of "Christian" and "conservative" that no analysis is required. They never bothered to learn anything about Islam; why would they bother to learn anything about Islam's critics?
