  • Norwegian government report whitewashes Breivik terror attacks

    Une réflexion très intéressante sur les conclusions du rapport de la commission du 22 juillet qui note que le rapport est entièrement dédié au décryptage des événements et ignore totalement les questions idéologiques qui ont poussé Breivik à mener les deux attaques, « dédouanant » ainsi le gouvernement travailliste et les autres partis politiques de leur « responsabilité » ou « laxisme » face à l’émercence de cette idéologie ultra-nationaliste et xénophobe.

    The report of the 22 July Commission, the official body set up by the government to review the events of Anders Behring Breivik’s twin terrorist attacks on July 22, 2011, has concluded that authorities could have prevented the slaughter from taking place.

    But in all respects, the report is still a whitewash.

    The commission, whose investigation lasted almost a year, released its findings on the eve of the announcement of Breivik’s sentencing, due Friday.

    The 500-page report seeks to cover over the political character of the attack, ignoring any consideration of the motives behind Breivik’s actions. In the opening section the commission declares, “We have foregone issues related to the perpetrator’s motive, childhood and state of health, and we have not explored the measures society puts in place for the early prevention of radicalisation.”
