Explosion Norway

[Jan Klimkowski]

New developments in the Breivik case.

These are taking place in the world of extreme right wing politics, which means everything is rather spooky, and nothing is quite as it seems.

However, the information below is, at the very least, resonant.

In Breivik's manifesto, he talked of visiting London in 2002 for what appears as a ritual meeting of some pseudo New Knights Templar. This was the beginning of his Quest (again in ritual terms), and led to Breivik undertaking several very curious errands - such as gun running for Serb arms dealers in wartorn Liberia.

In the London meeting, Breivik met "Lionheart". Evidence suggested that "Lionheart" was Paul Ray, the founder of the English Defence League.

For the record, whilst Ray admits to blogging as "Lionheart", he denies having been at the meeting in London in 2002, and also denies having ever met Breivik.

Here's an interview with Paul Ray:

I'm Not Anders Breivik's British Mentor

By Jamie Armstrong


We met Paul Ray, "Lionheart of England", a few months ago when we were making the VBS.TV film Royal Wedding. Ray is a religious skinhead who formed the EDL, but who now lives in exile in Malta where he leads an anti-Muslim group called The Ancient Order of the Templar Knights. If you've been following the news recently, the name of Ray's organisation should ring a few bells.

When the Norwegian terrorist Anders Breivik's 1,500-page 'manifesto' went public yesterday, it was full of the same Holy War rhetoric favoured by Ray. Amongst its hubris was the claim that "God will revive the ancient order of the Knights Templar". Eerily similar, especially when you think about the claims Breivik has made about his close relationship with the EDL. Could Paul Ray have a connection with Anders Breivik?

We began to get worried that maybe the other terror cells Breivik has claimed to be working alongside had something to do with Paul Ray, so we decided to seek him out. So did The Daily Telegraph, though they didn't seem to get as much out of him as we did. This is probably because the Paul Ray we called was in Malta, while they found their (presumably bewildered) Paul Ray in Bedfordshire.

VICE: Hi Paul. You've already said on your blog that you would "play no part in such inhumane savagery that has no place in the civilised world." So, have you ever had any contact with Anders Breivik?
Paul Ray: No. Not at all. Not that I know of, anyway.

VICE: Were there many connections with Norway back when you were running the EDL?
Paul Ray: Well, you should look up Alan Lake's "EDL Final Solution" and have a read of that. He was one of the early EDL members and his "Final Solution" seems to be ideologically similar to what Anders has been writing and talking about.

VICE: Hmm, "Final Solution" is a very loaded term. Do you think Breivik has stolen anything from Lake's manifesto?
Paul Ray: Yeah, but this Anders guy says that he gave his ideological outlook to the EDL. If he did, he never gave it to me. I'm the one who brought the EDL together. Thing is, Alan Lake came in at the beginning as well, and he was dealing with either the Swedish or Norwegian anti-jihad movement. He had his fingers in a few of those movements throughout Europe. If Breivik did have contact with anyone in the EDL at that time, I wouldn't be surprised it if was him.

VICE: It's been reported in the press that Anders was planning to reform the Templar Knights of Europe. Nominally at least, that sounds pretty close to your Ancient Order of the Templar Knights group. Were you aware of that?
Paul Ray: I think he was a lone wolf, and he's just creating this mythology around him to make it look likes he's part of something much bigger. He claims he arranged a meeting in London in 2002 with people from the Catholic Church and the Greek and Serbian Orthodox Churches. Do you really think people from these different denominations would come together to meet someone like him, and then approve of killing 90 innocent people? It's pretty far-fetched.

VICE: How do you think this will affect peoples' views of your Templar Knights?
Paul Ray: It's bad isn't it? Look at what he's been saying, and then look at what I've been portraying. Don't look good, does it? My friends have been reading the manifesto and a lot of the things that we're involved in and promoting are in there. It apparently says in his manifesto that he has an English mentor called Richard. People are thinking that might be a code word for Richard Lionheart. Who else is there called "Lionheart" who's writing about anti-jihad, Muslims and Templar iconography? It blatantly looks like it's me! He also talks about diamonds in Liberia and whatever. Meanwhile, Nick [Mad Nick, another Templar Knight, pictured above with Paul Ray] is supporting Charles Taylor… It looks like he's pointing the finger at us! It's like he's copied us. He's just using the Templar Knight iconography to condone his actions.

VICE: Why would he copy you?
Paul Ray: I think he's just one crazed man. I think he's just created a story to make himself look a lot bigger than he actually is. Ultimately, he's made it look like he's pointing his finger directly at me and the people I'm associated with.

VICE: Will any EDL members be worried about the prospect of links between themselves and Breivik coming to wider attention?
Paul Ray: The EDL are a bunch of lying hypocrites and they're pushing for a full-on confrontation in our country. They put on the face of being a peaceful group, but really they're pushing for a civil war. The intelligence services aren't stupid, and right now extreme far-right groups like the EDL will just be worried about being banned. Their leadership will certainly be worried that someone in their ranks did have connections with that man and that that will come out. If there is any link with Alan Lake, it will be interesting to see how that situation plays out.

VICE: In your opinion, do you think there are more terrorists like him?
Paul Ray: Yeah, I think there's always going to be far-right people out there who'll commit terrorist attacks.

Well, that's terrifying.

With regard to "Alan Lake", Ray has now gone further than he did in the interview above and claimed that "Lake" was Breivik's controller.

"Alan Lake" has recently been revealed as a pseudonym of Alan Ayling:

Tycoons back new far-right grouping

Andy McSmith Monday 12 December 2011


A property tycoon and a former investment fund manager have been named as the driving forces behind a plan to create a new force on the far-right of British politics.

The Independent revealed last week that the English Defence League plans to run candidates for the first time in local elections, after a deal with another far-right group, the British Freedom Party, formed by former members of the British National Party.

Ann Marchini, who runs a buy-to-let property empire, confirmed to The Sunday Times that she is a member of the British Freedom Party and a friend of its chairman, Paul Weston.

Alan Ayling, also known as Alan Lake, was a director of Pacific Capital Investment Management until earlier this year. In October, he was named by a prosecutor in Oslo as someone Norwegian police wanted to question about the murders of 77 people by Anders Behring Breivik in July. Mr Ayling was thought to have been one of Breivik's sources of inspiration.

Both are said to have been at a "pivotal" meeting of EDL activists held at Mr Ayling's flat in London in 2009.

Here is Wikipedia on Lake/Ayling:

"Alan Lake" is the pseudonym used by a computer expert from Highgate, London.[1] "Lake" is a millionaire,[2] and has been described as the 'chief financier' of the English Defence League by the media, which reportedly is "fiercely denied by Lake."[3] He however admitted to having "given some money to help some EDL things happen" in his first television interview, on Norwegian TV 2.[4] According to EDL leader Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, "Lake" has never been a member of the EDL, and the EDL has not received funding from him. Responding to media claims saying the opposite, Lennon said that "he ["Lake"] spoke at two demos and he wore a suit, and all of a sudden he was a millionaire funder."[5]

Lake is considered a central figure in organising international anti-Islamist contacts.[4] Lake spoke at a seminar on Islamisation in Malmö, Sweden in 2009, organised by the Sweden Democrats.[3][6] Lake has later said that he continues to maintain good relations with many of the party's members, and that he is a good friend with MP Kent Ekeroth.[4] He has considered that the state "might as well" execute Islamists who seek to impose Sharia law in the UK,[4] and according to The Guardian he has called for discussion about killing the Archbishop of Canterbury for his alleged supporting sharia law for Britain.[7] Lake has also founded the far-right "4 Freedoms" website.[2]

Lake rarely speaks with the press.[2] According to Professor Nigel Copsey Lake represents the more 'respectable' intellectual wing of the English Defence League.[8]

In October 2011, Norwegian police formally investigated Lake to investigate any potential ideological influence Lake may have had on mass murderer Anders Breivik.[9]

In December 2011 "Lake" was identified as property tycoon and a former investment fund manager Alan Ayling.[10]

On his "Lionheart" blog, Paul Ray has now made the following, rather rambling but provocative, allegations:

There is now no doubt in my mind about Alan Lake being Anders Breivik's controller linked to his terrorist atrocities in Norway on July 22nd 2011.

For 6 months after being 'framed' as Breivik's English 'mentor' I have been trying to work out if I was right in my belief that Alan Lake & Co were the ones who set me up which would mean they were directly linked to Breivik himself and his actions. All circumstantial evidence pointed in his direction but there was one massive missing piece of the mental jigsaw puzzle that I just could not work out.

How could Alan Lake possibly be linked to the Balkans, Serbians and maybe even Russians.

The big missing link to my mental picture to make it complete.

Then this week Tash Shifrin thankfully released the information that Alan Ayling aka Alan Lake had been suspended from his job within a major London bank where he worked as the manager over their Oracle database.

I checked the website of the bank and clicked on the 'about us' page and the Balkans jumped out of the page at me. Alan Lake working in a trusted position within an international bank directly linked to the Balkans and obviously Serbians?

This is no ordinary bank like Barclay's or RBS either, everything is in the name of this bank that Lake was working for: The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development

It is an independent bank supported by international Governments dealing with Reconstruction and Development in Countries emerging from war exactly like in the Balkans pre 2002, and broken Countries that need assistance in development just like the name states.

A powerful international European bank with a political mandate.

You can check their website yourself to see the good work that the bank is currently doing in helping developing Nations, and the work in other Countries they are intending to do, but as with everything there is always the chance that criminals at some level get involved with such large organisations and operate under the cover of the organisation until found out. This happens in life in any major company where criminals work out the system from the inside, find fellow criminals and then abuse the system for their financial advantage, or as in this case political advantage due to the nature of the bank and its work. Sometimes this abuse can reflect extremely badly on the image of the organisation/company depending on the type of organisation/company it is, and in other instances its just a case of a financial lose through fraud or theft.

Alan Ayling operating under his alias Alan Lake has the potential to damage the reputation of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development because of his extra curricula political activities, and his direct connection to the Anders Breivik mass murder enquiry because people will now be asking questions and want answers about their employee and his activities.

Considering all of his work in the UK as director behind the EDL and his links into the European anti-Jihad movement that includes Sweden where he has contacts in the Swedish Government and even Norway itself where Breivik struck, you could argue that the damage is already done unless the Chief Executives issue a public statement distancing themselves from their employee Alan Ayling.

Unless they have the bury your head in the sand syndrome concerning such a serious situation their bank is now implicated in.

To have only suspended him when their is evidence all over the internet about his extra curricula political activities and not sacked him with immediate effect does not bode well on the banks future public image around the World. At least if they had of sacked him with immediate effect the public would have perceived the Chief Executives acted immediately over something of such a serious nature that they had no knowledge of when it was brought to their attention. This did not happen.

Either the Chief Executives of the bank know about Alan Ayling's extra curricula political activities, and his direct link to the Anders Breivik mass murder enquiry and endorse him and support him, or they do not?

I go with they did not.

That's a question for others to ask them though that the Norwegian and British public will now want to know, not least for Norway where he is alleged to be linked to Anders Breivik who massacred 69 innocent kids on their summer camp and blew up the Government building killing 8 people inside, but also here in the UK where he has been directing the hijacked EDL and costing the British tax-payer millions whilst working as an employee inside their bank that has a political mandate in foreign Countries, even wanting to go into Islamic Countries.

If they do not support him or endorse him, then along with a public statement the only way they can prove this is by conducting their own internal and transparent investigation into his work activities internally to see if he has been abusing his trusted position and is involved in criminal activity within the structure of the bank along with others, whilst the Norwegian and British police continue to carry out their investigations into his extra curricula political activities, and his links to Anders Breivik and the massacre in Norway.

Alan Ayling was not just floor staff either, he was the trusted 'manager' of the banks Oracle database overseeing a whole team of employee's.

I have absolutely no idea what the Oracle database is or what it does but it must play an important function of the bank and Lake was the trusted man for the job. How did he attain that trusted position?

You could ask yourself; what was their trusted manager doing directing the EDL street protest movement and how did it all happen? Was Alan Ayling recruited into a secret group with a funny handshake by other employee's of the bank who were unknowingly abusing their positions from within and needed others to help as an extension of their criminal work?

You cannot say this does not go on!

Its all about the money for some people.

I am all for secretive groups with funny handshakes planning and plotting for the defence of Queen & Country but this group behind Breivik are not for Queen & Country.

Most people reading this worry about their mortgage payments, car payments, mobile phone bill or internet bill etc which are small amounts of money being transferred around banks like Barclay's or RBS, where as major criminal and terrorist organisations worry about transferring many millions of pounds, euros and dollars around international banks via enterprises like arms trading, drug smuggling to fund conflicts and terrorist campaigns.

What would your local Barclay's bank branch manager think if millions of pounds were being transferred through your accounts?

It would definitely raise his suspicions that's for sure.

But what if you were working in a bank use to multi million pound transfers being switched around accounts, working in developing Countries and war torn Countries and you had paid willing accomplices on the inside so as to not raise suspicions over the criminal enterprise?

Money laundering.

Would a bank like the one Alan Lake worked for be the type of bank that large sums of money could be passed around without much suspicion? And considering the nature of the work the bank does and the Countries it works in would it be possible that it has gone on under the nose of the Chief Executives by a network of compliant criminal employee's like Alan Ayling?

Breivik was chosen by someone for some reason and sent as an errand boy to Liberia in 2002 with all probability the reason for the trip being about arms trading amongst other things, considering it was at a time when the Country was gripped in a bloody civil war. Breivik has stated that there were other reasons why he went to Liberia other than meeting his Serbian contact which would tie in with being an errand boy for arms traders. After this trip to Liberia he then travelled to London where he has stated that the founding meeting of the secretive militant right-wing group was formed. Could it be possible that members of that group, especially his English 'mentor' were part of the financial side of the international arms trade which would mean working on the inside of a large international bank based in London? Or having someone on the inside?

Further reading: Birth & Baptism of Anders Breivik

It is highly likely that Breivik was recruited because of his father who was the Norwegian diplomat to London in 2002. Its not unheard of that some diplomats have dual roles as spies either, so Breivik probably came to someones attention as a useful young recruit into a neo-Gladio style group. Did Breivik's father have any dealings with Alan Ayling's bank whilst working in his capacity as the Norwegian diplomat to London? If you type Norway into the banks website search engine you will see that Norway is a financial backer of this bank so the possibility is there.

That's for the Norwegian investigators to find out.

Breivik's father obviously fears something because he refuses to travel to Norway to answer questions which says allot about the man. A man who was entrusted to be the representative of the Norwegian people as a government diplomat in a foreign Country who now refuses to travel back to his native homeland to answer questions over such a serious matter that has effected the Nation. That leaves the very real thought that he must have something to hide with regards to his son and how his son ended up as an extreme right-wing political terrorist who has committed the worst act of political terrorism in Europe of the 21st Century and committed a crime against humanity.

It all starts to make much more sense now, and is the reason behind the British press refusing to report on Alan Lake this self explanatory considering who his employer is?

One thing is for sure is that if Alan Ayling was working inside this particular bank in 2002 then that is another nail in his coffin concerning his direct involvement with Anders Breivik.

For the record, Lake/Ayling denies having ever met Anders Breivik.

Murkier and murkier.
