Abstract
This article examines the intensely mediated debate on the relationship between
ideological affinity and political implication that followed the documenting of the
‘citational ecology’ of Breivik’s 2083 compendium. Focusing on the recurring
trope of war in counter-jihad blog posts and mainstream media comment, it
argues that the invocation of ‘war’ is important beyond limiting debates on
incitement and ‘moral responsibility’. Following Butler (2009), it examines
this ‘frame of war’ and its poetics as the condition of counter-jihad networks
and as the licence for mainstream polemics on the ‘failed experiment’ of
multiculturalism
