But the mass murder committed by this self-proclaimed "Knight" is a veritable political disaster. Already in 1887 Kropotkin rejected individual acts of terror as ineffective and counterproductive. What was clear a hundred years ago, in our days it is a certainty: terror tactics provoke mass repression and lead to defeat.
I think GoV should come out with a clear condemnation of Berwick and his act. No one should take example from him. He is a mass murderer and objectively, he sabotaged the cause he pretended to advance.

I agree with you.
Just a point, though: I don't think a boycott of Israel was going to be "debated", in the strict sense of the term.
Anon.
Wrong j!
GOV shouldn't play that game!
He never called for violence,
He got nothing to do with it whatsoever .
Anon is right. The Baron, actually an aging programmer has never called for violence against anyone, never preached it and unlike some other blogs, never even hinted at it. He should refuse to play this made up game.

The terrorist has the zeitgeist on his side, he has struck at a time when the liberal edifice is tottering under the weight of corruption, incompetence, arrogance and indifference, much as it was in the time of Nicholas 11. As in all cases of terrorism the ultimate victor will turn out to be the Devil, but in the meantime I do not see the left gaining any traction from this.

The Norwegian right should only apologize AFTER the Norwegian Left apoligizes for importing Muslims into their own country.
And while ultra-PC Britain and their propaganda organs (Al Guardian, BBBC) are celebrating and popping champagne at the long awaited discovery of the rarest of creatures, The Great Scandinavian Terrorist and the downfall of the EEEVIIIIIILLL Rupert Murdoch:
United British Emirates

There are now over 2.8 million Muslims living in the United Kingdom – which is a staggering 5% of the population – but in truth, it is more than just numbers, indeed the entire infrastructure of Britain is changing; Mosques, Islamic Schools, Shari’ah Courts and Muslim owned businesses, have now become an integral part of the British landscape.
In light of this glaring fact, Muslims Against Crusades have decided to launch “The Islamic Emirates Project,” that will see high profile campaigns launch in Muslim enclaves all over Britain, with the objective to gradually transform Muslim communities into Islamic Emirates operating under Shari’ah law.

Calls for the establishment not just of sharia but of a caliphate (“khilafa”) are increasing in stridency and frequency around Europe, like this rally for a khilafa by Muslim youth in Britain in February. Here is video of a demonstration in Amsterdam in May 2011. Nominally assembled to support “democracy” in nations like Syria and Libya, the demonstrators wave the flags of the khilafa: the white flag (al-liwaa) of the head of state, or caliph, and the black flag of war (ar-raya). (The flags bear the same inscription in opposite colors: the shahada, or statement of faith.) More video here shows a demonstration in Copenhagen in 2008. Cities in France, Spain, Belgium, Norway, and Sweden have seen such demonstrations as well.
Hizb ut-Tahrir (Party of Liberation), which has been behind many of the rallies in Europe, has held Khilafa Conferences in the United States in each of the last three years. A video from one of the lectures at the first one, in 2009, shows a speaker against the backdrop of an oversize al-liwaa flag. (Note the speaker’s accent.) The white al-liwaa is the flag used by the caliph; it is not a battle flag but a flag of state, representing the authority of the earthly sharia ruler.
J, Palestinian rallies also use the white al-liwaa and black flag of war,ar-raya?
Muslims love war.
