Last Friday, a bomb exploded in Oslo, Norway, outside some government buildings. Many people immediately assumed it was al-Qaeda.
Then, less than two hours later, a gunman opened fire at a youth camp.
More than 90 people were killed in these two acts of violence.
Ironically, the admitted perpetrator in both incidents, Anders Behring Breivik, is not an Islamic terrorist, but rather a white radical right-wing Islamophobe who admires the American Tea Party movement and wants to save the Western world from Muslim infiltration/influence.
Violence based on that kind of attitude will never solve anything. Indeed, it's the mirror image of Islamic jihad. It leads only to unnecessary suffering and death.
Might does not make right. But, sadly, some people don't care about that.
