Of course, there was much else in the manifesto – fantasies about reviving the medieval Knights Templar, for example – that suggests a more bizarre disposition, and Wilders was quick to distance himself from Breivik’s violent methods.

事实上，布雷维克在他篇杂乱无章的《欧洲独立宣言》中所写的内容或多或少都是霍尔特·怀德斯这些民粹主义者的言论。当然这个宣言中还有很多其他内容——比如复兴中世纪圣殿骑士团的梦想——体现了他本人的怪异思维，而怀德斯则迅速与布雷维克的暴力方式撇清关系。实质上只有一个右翼政客——来自意大利贝鲁斯科尼阵营的北方联盟议员弗朗西斯科·斯佩隆尼——试图为布雷维克辩护。他认为布雷维克的“意愿是为了保卫西方文明”。
