Norway Massacre and Reactions To It

I've been following the Norway massacres from a respectful distance: I'm not terribly well-read in Norwegian politics or social currents, and I suspect that a lot of people that have a lot to say on Facebook and Twitter know less than they let on.

But I thought it worth linking this article in Slate on the knee-jerk reactions assuming Islam was beneath it.  There are lots of filthy rooms in other houses.

Money quote:

Now you know how it feels, Ms. Geller. When the terrorist is a Christian—in his own words, a "Crusader" for "Christendom"—and when the preacher to whom he has been linked is you, you suddenly discover the injustice of group blame and guilt by association. The citations you didn't create, the intermediaries you didn't recognize, the transactions you didn't know about, the violent interpretations you didn't condone—these exonerating facts suddenly matter.
