Can you say Amy Winehouse and Norwegian massacre in the same breath?

Roger Cohen in the New York Times, “Breivik and His Enablers.” I think he pulls it off.

Nothing, however, can excuse the widespread condoning of an anti-Muslim racism once reserved for the Jews of Europe. Not on the weekend when Amy Winehouse, a Jewish girl from East London whose artistry would once have been dismissed by a racist and murderous European right as degenerate “cosmopolitan” trash, died. A good way to remember her is finally to confront the latest iteration of a European bigotry that kills.
