THE founder of the National Front party in France criticised Norway for its 'naivety' in the face of immigration and terrorism and called government inaction more serious than the massacre of 77 people by an anti-Islam extremist.

Jean-Marie Le Pen said the July 22 gun and bomb attack by Anders Behring Breivik - once a member of Norway's populist right-wing Progress Party - appeared to be the work of a 'sick' man, but pointed a finger at Norwegian authorities and society.

'What strikes me as more serious ... is the naivety and inaction of the Norwegian government,' said Mr Le Pen, 82, the former party head in a weekly video blog published on the party's website on Friday.

'The most serious responsibility, it seems to me, is that of the Norwegian government and society which has fallen asleep ... which has not taken into account the global danger of massive immigration which is the main reason in this deadly crazy man's thinking, but also terrorism, which is a global phenomenon.'

1. Naive because they believe in working with these RW assholes instead of imprisoning them?

3. Ah, blame the victims, not the right-wing extremists.

Good move, asshole. In a country that has a lot guns, but they are restricted...in a country that has very little gun violence...in a country that has only been attacked by right-wing extremists...what they need is more guns, less restrictions, less immigration, more pandering to extremists. Gee, then they'll be just like us. :eyes:

4. exactly! wtf?!

let's blame the immigrants instead of the loon(s) who cause the destruction and horror. Sounds like some of the people/policies we have right here in the good ol' USA.
