While Breivik openly expressed his views online, there was little to indicate that the young man - described by friends as quiet, friendly and ordinary - would go on to kill dozens of people, many in cold blood.

The media coverage of the trial of mass murderer Breivik amounts to lying by omission. On his own admission in his 1500 page Manifesto, Breivik is not merely a mass murderer but a racist, genocidal, anti-Arab anti-Semitic, pro-Israel and pro-Zionist mass murderer just like the racist Zionists running Apartheid Israel that he so admires. However Neocon American and Zionist Imperialist (NAZI)-beholden mainstream media resolutely refuse to make the connection.

By way of example, the Australian ABC (like the BBC) TV Four Corners investigative program broadcast an analysis of the Breivik Massacre in which it made clear Breivik's anti-Muslim position but failed to mention his pro-Israel, pro-Zionist position, his hatred for anti-racist Jews and his desire to ethnically cleanse not just Norway and Europe of Muslims (genocide) but also Palestine, China, India and other countries. Also ignored by the ABC was that several days before this atrocity the Young Labor Norwegians rallied on Utoya Island with banners in support of Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) against Apartheid Israel (for the key image of the event NOT reported by the ABC see "Palestinian civil society expresses solidarity with people of Norway": http://www.bdsmovement.net/2011/solidarity-with-people-of-norway-7684#.T... ).

This Elephant in the Room reality of Breivik's pro-Israel and pro-Zionist position could not be ignored in Apartheid Israel where the conservative, pro-Zionist Jerusalem Post reported Breivik's attacks on anti-racist Jews in particular - yes, the same decent, anti-racist Jews who are routinely sidelined, censored and grossly defamed in Australia and elsewhere under an appalling new anti-Semitic regime of Zionist-promoted anti-Jewish anti-Semitism applied to decent Jews critical of the genocidal crimes of Apartheid Israel. Google together the words pro-Zionist and Breivik and you will get as #1 out of 420,000 results the Jerusalem Post article entitled "Norway attack suspect had anti-Muslim, pro-Israel views": http://www.jpost.com/International/Article.aspx?id=230762 .

According to the Jerusalem Post: "In one passage, he lashes out at the Western media, which he accuses of unfairly focusing on the wrongdoing of Jews.
“Western Journalists again and again systematically ignore serious Muslim attacks and rather focus on the Jews,” he wrote. Breivik also took a jab at leftwing Jews. “Jews that support multi-culturalism today are as much of a threat to Israel and Zionism as they are to us,” he continued. “So let us fight together with Israel, with our Zionist brothers against all anti-Zionists, against all cultural Marxists/multiculturalists.”"

In addition to being a a racist, genocidal, anti-Arab anti-Semitic, pro-Israel and pro-Zionist mass murderer, Breivik further resembles the racist Zionists and their Western leadership supporters by being anti-Jewish anti-Semitic in relation to anti-racist Jews.

The Zionist-beholden Mainstream media not only censor themselves - they also censor decent, humane, anti-racist Jewish opinion. Thus anti-racist Jewish criticism of Apartheid Israel (see "Jews Against Racist Zionism": https://sites.google.com/site/jewsagainstracistzionism/ ) and of the Zionist-beholden US Alliance War on Muslims (12 million war-related Muslim deaths since 1990; see "Muslim Holocaust, Muslim Genocide": https://sites.google.com/site/muslimholocaustmuslimgenocide/ ) has been repeatedly censored by the Australian university-backed, academic-based The Conversation (for a detailed record of such censorship of anti-racist Jewish opinion see "Censorship by The Conversation": https://sites.google.com/site/mainstreammediacensorship/censorship-by ). For more on such egregious censorship of humane anti-racist Jewish and non-Jewish opinion see also "Censorship by the BBC": https://sites.google.com/site/censorshipbythebbc/bbc-censors-palestine , "Censorship by The Age": https://sites.google.com/site/mainstreammediacensorship/censorship-by-th... and "ABC Censorship": https://sites.google.com/site/abccensorship/ and , “Censorship by the ABC”: https://sites.google.com/site/censorshipbytheabc/ and "Censorship by ABC Late Night Live: https://sites.google.com/site/censorshipbytheabc/censorship-by-abc-late ).

What disturbs me is that the author of this article has fictitiously stated that the Breivik trial has been televised. This is clearly not the case: The prosecutions statements and arguments are televised, but Breivik's testimony has been omitted/censored by the trial Judge. Officially, this case is about a murder trial. But in reality this case is about much more than that. The prosecutor's would undoubtedly be under strict instructions from the very upper echelons of power to achieve a specific goal, as this case exhibits every semblance of a 'Schmittian moment' - the state defending itself with the monopoly of force which it has against the individual. Achieving an insanity ruling would enable the state to claim a double victory: Firstly, it would be perceived as largely discrediting the anti-Multiculturalist doctrine. Secondly, it becomes easier to have Breivik 'suicided' in a mental asylum after he has an apparent mental breakdown. According to the information which has been released from the trial, Breivik has been earnest and honest with his account and descripiton of the events that occurred in Norway, as well as the reasons why he conducted them. The author of this article, however, has not addressed any of these outstanding issues but has instead opted to jump on-to the populist bandwagon of arbitrary condemndation by offering his little more than his own cobbled-together opinions and distortion.

If he's so scared of going to a mental hospital, why not send him there. He's clearly as deluded as a tree- the guys living with psychosis and he's one of those extremely rare psychotic patients who has become extremely violent in his deluded state and disconnection with reality. No matter his beliefs and protestations, they are not in alignment with what would be expected for a person of his background. He is sick and needs treatment. If his treatment is anything like my own experience of psychosis and schizophrenia + depression treatment, believe me, it WILL be punishment enough.

perhaps another way to view the televisation of such a court case is that it is part and parcel of a transparent democracy. there is no mystery left, just the crime and the criminal.

i also find the argument that a tv courtroom appearance could provide the tipping point for atrocities as deeply flawed. we already have Youtube allowing global exposure of one's crimes, which is far more 'exciting' than being handcuffed to a desk in a court.
