Thanks. Going through Andrews Breiviks manifesto. And yes LGF and Charles are in fact mentioned.

“I checked the front page of the major American “anti-Jihad” website Little GreenFootballs (LGF) from Friday 19 to Tuesday September 23 2008 to check what blogger Charles Johnson wrote about the demonstration. As far as I could see, he remained completely silent on the subject, yet there is no doubt that he was aware of the event. On Sep 8 he wrote about Fascists Hijacking Anti-Jihadism in Cologne”[18]” and stated that “Here we go again, as an all - star cast of European fascists hijacks the anti-jihad movement for their own sick political purposes.”

“I have watched, for the better part of a year, a number of decent human beings including, but not limited to, Pamela Geller, Paul Belien, Diana West, the Baron and Dymphna from the Gates of Vienna blog and many others, being at the receiving end of a vicious smear campaign from Charles Johnson and Little Green Footballs which is unlike anything I have seen in my life. After engaging in an insane witch - hunt on imaginary Fascists, whose ranks seem to grow every month, Mr. Johnson now suddenly chooses to look the other way in silence when very real Fascists use violence to silence their critics in a major Western city. I admit that makes me angry, and I think I have the right to be so.”

So yes, Charles and LGF were in fact mentioned in his manifesto. But not in a very flattering way.

While I can’t give the DoD a full pants on fire rating for the altered graph, they knew damn well that any mention of Charles and LGF was NEGATIVE and hoped no one would actually fact check them.

Guess again assholes.
