Possible Israeli Connection to Oslo Attacks
by Stephen Lendman
On July 24, investigative journalist Wayne Madsen suggested a Mossad link, saying “ample evidence” of its involvement exists.
Anders Breivik, the alleged bomber/gunman, calls himself a Christian conservative interested in hunting, body building and freemasonry. He’s also expressed strong pro-Israeli views, hostile to Palestinians and Muslims.
Government business records name him the Breivik Geofarm director. Norway’s media call it a farming sole proprietorship, cultivating vegetables, melons, roots and tubers.
The Norwegian newspaper Verdens Gang quoted a friend saying he became a wing-wing extremist in his late 20s. He’s now age 32. The paper also said he participated in online forums expressing strong nationalistic, anti-multicultural views.
On July 24, the UK Daily Mail said:
“According to witness accounts from Norwegian media, people have described shooting incidents in two different areas on the island, one with a handgun and the other with a ‘sniper rifle.’ However, there is uncertainty whether the guns belonged to one gunman or there was a second involved.”
In the confusion, no one was sure, but the possibility is real, given the implausibility that one person killed over 90 people singlehanded. Perhaps there were multiple undetected gunmen. Police said they don’t exclude the possibility.
Madsen connected Breivik to Pam Geller and Richard Pipes, “ciphers for Israeli intelligence and propaganda elements….provid(ing) a clear link between Breivik and Mossad, which is under orders to stage false flag attacks to garner support for Israel against Palestine, Cyprus and Norway being the two most recent examples of Mossad-staged attacks.”
On July 19, Voice of Russia broadcasting headlined, “Norway to support Palestinians – Norwegian FM,” saying:
“Norway will support Palestinians who are set to press for recognition of the independence of their state by the United Nations, says the Norwegian Foreign Minister Jonas Gahr Store.”
In January, Store said:
“Norway will be among the first (European) states (to) recognize (an independent) Palestin(e) when there is an act as an international team” to do it.
He also said:
“We are working to develop the economy of Palestine,” and believe the political process toward peace can be successful.”
Heading a committee in charge of raising international aid for Palestine, he added that Norway is committed to rallying donor help to build Palestinian institutions.
His July comment followed talks with Palestinian National Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas, adding he believes independence is no hindrance to Middle East peace.
Earlier in July, Norway’s Dagbladet newspaper quoted Labour Party-affiliated Workers Youth League (AUF) leader Eskil Pedersen saying:
The “time has come for more drastic measures against Israel, and (he) wants the Foreign Minister to impose an economic boycott against the country,” adding:
“The peace process goes nowhere, and though the whole world expects Israel to comply, they do not. We in the Labour Youth will have a unilateral economic embargo of Israel from the Norwegian side.”
Dagbladet said:
“The AUF has long been a supporter of an international boycott of Israel, (and) the decision at the last congress demands that Norway impose a unilateral economic embargo….and it must be stricter than before.”
Last August 24, Reuters and Haaretz writer Shuki Sadeh headlined, “Norway government-run pension fund drops Africa Israel group shares,” saying:
“Norway’s 450 billion euro oil-riches fund has excluded two Israeli firms involved in developing settlements, as well as a Malaysian forestry firm, on ethical grounds, Norway’s finance ministry said on Monday.”
Excluded are Africa Israel Investments and its engineering subsidiary Danya Cebus. Both are controlled by Lev Leviev, billionaire Israeli businessman, involved among other interests in constructing Israeli settlements.
Norway’s central bank-managed fund follows ethical guidelines, excluding investments in companies producing nuclear weapons, cluster munitions, environmentally harmful products, building illegal settlements, or abusing their workers.
The fund specifically said Leviev’s Danya Cebus subsidiary engages in settlement construction in East Jerusalem’s Har Homa neighborhood, as well as West Bank Ma’ale Adumim and Modi’in Illit settlements.
The fund said its “Council of Ethics emphasizes that construction of settlements in occupied areas is a violation of the Geneva Convention relative to the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War.”
Finance Minister Sigbjoern Johnsen added:
“Several United Nations Security Council resolutions and an International Court of Justice advisory opinion have concluded that the construction of Israeli settlements in occupied Palestinian territory is prohibited under this Convention.”
Africa Israel replied, saying neither it or its subsidiaries engaged in West Bank settlement construction for some time, whether or not true. At the same time, it left unmentioned its East Jerusalem projects, where Israel steals Palestinian land for settlement development.
In 2009, Norway’s pension fund divested in Elbit Systems, an Israeli defense electronics firm, because of its involvement in building Israel’s illegal Separation Wall.
On March 29, 2011, EuropeNews headlined, “Norway: Socialist Left Party to Vote on Motion Calling for Bombing Israel if it Acts against Hamas in Gaza,” saying:
Former Finance Minister, now Education Minister Kristin Halvorsen’s Socialist Left Party (SV), (part of Norway’s three party ruling coalition with the Centre Party and the Labour Party) supports a measure supporting military action against Israel if it attacks Hamas. Part of its statement said:
“The credibility of the world community in its confrontation with (Gaddafi) is undermined when there is no reaction against other states in the region (that) commit injustices against (their) civil population. The greater world community must therefore also react against Israeli air attacks on the Gaza strip.”
The proposal didn’t get majority support but shows Norwegian concern for Palestinian rights. It suggests why Breivik targeted Labour Party children on Utoeya island. The previous day, they held a pro-Palestinian rally. Foreign Minister Store met with them, and while there, children told him Norway must recognize Palestine. In response, he said:
“The Palestinians must have their own state. The occupation must end. The wall must be demolished, and it must happen now.”
Breivik expressed strong hatred for Muslims and others with left of center views. His recently opened Twitter account posted a single July 17 comment, quoting John Stuart Mill saying:
“One person with a belief is equal to the force of 100,000 who have only interests.”
However, at issue isn’t him or his views. It’s who planned the attack, perhaps used him (among likely others) to commit it, and why.
Derailing Palestinian independence and de jure UN membership, as well as retaliating against Norway’s backing both, its divestment of Israeli assets, and its criticism of Israeli policies combines a trio of reasons perhaps behind the Oslo attacks.
Increasingly, it looks like Mossad’s fingerprints are all over them, perhaps cooperatively with CIA and/or MI6. Massive car bombs are one of their specialties. They’re experts at these type operations, using convenient stooges for plausible deniability, usually without their knowledge.
Spread the word, and keep the pressure on Israel and its Washington paymaster/partner, masters of mass murder crimes.

Ain’t no doubt in my mind. Hope he sings about who his accomplices were. Norway is not afraid to reveal the truth. Doubts in my mind if the lame stream media would out “Israel” though.
“Ain’t no doubt in my mind”? That makes you the world’s biggest idiot, Derek.
Meaning?
No. It just makes you an Israeli troll.
It is the typical israeli hasbara troll response. Have to be an idiot to believe land belongs to one as a divine right.
The muslims believe the whole world belongs to them for the exact same reason
Hasbara pleb no doubt.
Blame it on Jr. Bush, hell, you blame everything else on him. Conservatives, Freemasons and something else in your article, Oh yea! Christians. Norway is a bankrupt nation and has been for a while. I feel for all the people and their family and friends that lost their lives, but I don’t think Conservatives, Christians, Freemasons or Israel had anything to do with some nut killing his fellow countrymen.
What? Norway has always had the highest standard of living in the world and he is right wing Christian who supported Zionistan. Do you live in the real world?
Dude. The culprit has already connected the dots. He is spilling as we speak. None are as blind as those who refuse to see.
Important information, thank you, Steven. The story is unfolding and I appreciate the indepth analysis of the VT
writers. I respect Wayne Madsen’s research. We do know that Israel and the mossad were instrumental in the demolition of the WTC. We know that Israel attacked the USS Liberty. Many other false flag attacks have been attributed to Israel. Dr. Gerald Bull, Canadian designer of a large cannon (able to launch missiles into space), after being turned down by the U.S. was selling the gun to Saddam Hussein in Iraq and was murdered by the mossad as he answered the door to his hotel room in Brussels. There are many reasons to suspect Israel. I hope the Norwegians solve this crime and expose the network behind the this tragedy. If we do not expose these terrorists and the organizations behind the perpertrators, then, we are in deep ‘shit’.
Doug, couldn’t agree with you more. Cherchez les Juifs! “By Way of Deception Thou Shalt Do War!”
The Wall Street banksters are now out for retirees’ life savings!
The Portuguese language edition of monthly newsmag LeMonde Diplomatique Brasil has published an article by Mr Dominique Vidal some months ago that ALL extreme-right-wing European leaders are being financed by Mr Andrey Zionist Chernik, Los Angeles 42nd fortune (USD750 mn), sole exception is the French Front National, all high echelon members of philo-zionist ero-xenophobes anti-islam were welcome recently by Israel´s highest “authorities” . Ther is Zionism unfolding as it started as from 1897 : terror all over for all . That is what Zionism has always been about, this ideology is humanity´s terror .
Thanks for that. Zionism is a curse.
The Isreal Mossad Woody Allen Band from the Meyer Golden Teather in Brooklyn are pround about there own criminals comikus circus events around the world: only fews jewish zionist leader know why they did it to Oslo…without any direct/secondary links with ISREAL…Freezy Criminal Billiard Gaming of Zion (with more than 15 dead scandinavians teenagers heats)…less than the ODIGO Inc. of mossad in 9/11!

It has been perfectly clear for some time that Wikileaks is Israleaks simply because Israel, the biggest threat to world peace is never mentioned and yet it spends more time sending bogus reports to America about countries they want destroyed that any other country in the world.
It is time that this Lucifer worshipping nation was disarmed and the Jews deported and the land returned to the Palestinian People who are the rightful owners.
Every living Israeli leader has to be tried at the ICC for CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY AS WELL AS WAR CRIMES. THE WILLFULL DEFAMATION OF THE ARABIC AND MUSLIM PEOPLE BY THE JEWISH PEOPLE SINCE 1898 HAS TO BE ADDRESS – THE SUFFEREING OF ARABS AND MUSLIMS WORLD WIDE BECAUSE OF JEWISH LIES AND INUENDO HAS TO PUNISHED AS WELL AS THEIR CRIMES AGAINST IRAQ, AFGHANISTAN, LEBANON AND THE MURDER OF THOUSANDS OF DISARMED EGYPTIAN POW’S IN 1967 OUTSIDE AL ARISH AT THE ORDER OF ARIEL SHARON AS WELL AS THE BLATENT BOMBING OF THE USS LIBERTY WHICH WAS TO STOP THEM RECORDING THE MURDER OF THE EGYPTIAN POW’S FOR ONE THING. ISRAEL NEEDS TO STAND TRIAL FOR EVERY ONE OF ITS MASSACRES FROM LEBANON, TO JORDAN TO SYRIA TO EGYPT TO PALESTIAN TO GAZA AND TO EVERY EXTRA-JUDICIAL KILLING WHEREVER IT HAS TAKEN PLACE. IT HAS TO BE PUT ON TRIAL FOR EVERY PALESTINA AND LEBANESE CHILD KILLED BY AN ISRAELI – NOTHING LESS WILL DO. THE LAND MUST BE RETURNED TO PALESTINIANS NOW. WE HAVE NOT HAD A DAY OF PEACE SINCE THE JEWS CAME TO PALESTINE. 65 YEARS IS LONG ENOUGH TO SEE SUCH A BLOODY EXPERIMENT GET WORSE EVERY DAY AND EVERY ONE IN THE OUTSIDE WORLD BEARS THE BLAME FOR WHAT IS HAPPENING WHILE WE ALLOW IT TO GO ON.

I would add that on that “GREAT DAY” as THE US LIBERTY’S CREW were being murdered in cold blood by the Israelis with the intention of blaming my homeland, Egypt for it and (we learned later that we were within 15mins of a Nuclear Strike from the USA before it was called off), just outside Al Arish, an Egyptian town in the Sinai, hundreds of Egyptian soldiers had surrendered and given up their weapons then forced to dig their graves. They were then executed- my twin brother , a young doctor was among them so I feel so much empathy with the victims of the USS Liberty.
Thank you Alan Hart for keeping this subject alive.
Oop.
