The answer to that can be traced from his diary. Breivik admire the former Prime Minister of Australia, John Howard, whom he considered to always maintain the integrity and uniqueness of Australia.
Breivik also admire the former Japanese Prime Minister Taro Aso. Breivik said most wanted to meet with Aso, a conservative right-wing Japanese politicians. Breivik in a manifesto rewriting sentences ever uttered Aso in 2005. "One nation, one civilization, one language, one culture and one race," was ever said Aso, who admired Breivik.
Breivik also adore Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, whom he considered to defend the dignity of Russia. Putin is known to have supporters through Nashin movement, defenders of Russia's distinctiveness. Putin denies Breivik Breivik and called "reincarnation of the devil".
Breivik also amazed at the work of a Swiss author, Egyptian Jewish descent, Gisele Littman. This figure uses a pseudonym, that is Bat Ye'or, in his 2005 book Eurabia: The Euro-Arab Axis. This book tells about the relationship between Europe and Muslim countries.
The term "Eurabia" has used some circles to describe the development of Islamic influence in Europe even though Littman said that the argument is much more complex. He could not accept the contents of his book serve as a motivation to attack anyone.
Why Breivik bomb and opened fire on his fellow countrymen? The reason is the ruling Labor Party in Norway under the leadership of Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg is too moderate to immigrants who make up 25 percent of the total 4.9 million citizens of Norway and is also tolerant toward Islam.
Although not agree with the act Breivik, Littman remind the fact that Norway is the problem of European problems. The problem in question is Islam phobia and the fear of Islamic colonization of Europe. Well, this is an encouraging Breivik perform criminal acts.
Evangelicals condemned
By reason it was also, Breivik perform the action without feeling guilty for killing many people. He even likens himself to the Christian martyrs in Europe in medieval times, such as the Knights Templar, in order to limit or eradicate the Muslim development in Europe in modern times.
Europe is also hit by the rise of a number of far right parties antiimigran, anti-Muslim. This also happened in the Netherlands. Empirically, Europe was never disappear from people like Breivik, and like Adolf Hitler, as the most extreme example. Breivik also very intensively involved in discussion forums via the forum virtual world of Neo-Nazis. Breivik are the new terrorists, and real-life examples of the rise of the far right. Worse yet, he said it had done for the sake of brutal action that he embraced Christianity. Breivik showed, terrorists could emerge from the adherents of any religion.
This makes the evangelical world angry. "It's important to tell all Muslims everywhere, whether they are in Europe or anywhere in the world, that this action is not the way that embraced the Christian faith or Christian values," said Pastor Olav Tveit Fykse.
"It is a great blasphemy to associate crime with Christian beliefs," said Tveit, who is also a citizen of Norway and served as Secretary General of the World Council for Churches. "The churches that are open. Pastors and clergy very open to dialogue, "Tveit said of the Lutheran Church of Norway. "We as Christians must be vigilant about this, especially the abuse of religion for a crime," Tveit said told The Associated Press.
Not to forget Pope Benedict XVI also expressed concern. "I want to repeat my request to everyone to forever abandon the path of hatred and resentment and avoid the logic is wrong," said Pope Benedict XVI in Castel Gandolfo, Italy, Sunday (24 / 7).
All this of course is not just a warning for Breivik, but also a warning to anyone intending to oppress or kill using religion. God is One, one and a God for anyone. Actions such as Breivik, a Christian, certainly not Christian.
