I had this letter published in a Danish newspaper today, and thought Jihad Watch readers would like to see it also:
Radical right?
Nicolai Sennels has written dozens of articles about Islam, Muslim culture and immigration over the last couple of years. In Denmark he managed to have 450 letters (and more are coming) published in the print editions of newspapers during the same period. Living in Scandinavia and publicly criticizing the people condemning Anders Breivik takes some courage.
Radical right?
Published in the North Jutland Times
By Nicolai Sennels, parliamentary candidate (Danish Peoples’ Party)The Norwegian mass murderer Anders Breivik has been called a radical right-winger, because he is against Islam. But it is not radical right to be against such religious principles. Free speech, the equality of women and secularism are actually classical liberal virtues. Breivik claims that he was inspired by Islam-critical blogs and liberal immigration policies. While the latter may be true, the first is false. He was inspired by his own sick interpretation of these blogs, just as another mass murderer, Charles Manson, felt inspired by The Beatles’ song “Helter Skelter.” Breivik has misunderstood the Islam-critical blogs just as much as democratic Muslims misunderstand Islam.
