Breivik's goal seems to have been to bring about a repristinated Norway according to the memory of his youth and his interpretation of history, with a secular Christian but Catholic culture. He saw Islam as engaging in another invasion, this time by a birth rate far above that of the "indigenous" people, whom he compared to American Indians. (p. 688)

Anders Breivik’s motivation for targeting of the youth camp of the Norwegian Labour Party was apparently due to its support of the Islamization of Europe, which some assert implicitly supported terrorism.

This does not mean that I oppose diversity. But appreciating diversity does not mean that you support genocide of your own culture and people by accepting for example Islamic Demographic Warfare."
