Anders Behring Breivik Had Recently Been In The Middle East For 8 Months? UPDATE - NO, HE HAD NOT

UPDATE - An Anonymous commenter points out my error. Conservatism (Anders) had been quoting the post of another person named Diaf, who wrote:

Posted by DiafIt's true.  I'm around.  Back in EU after 8 months in the Middle East and recently returned to the solitary life so I'm toying with the idea of raiding again.

to which Conservatism (Anders) replied:

Hey all, and wb (welcome back) from Dubai, Heru!:)
Sorry about the dumb mistake on my part.                               

Apparently, Anders Behring Breivik participated in a World of Warcraft forum, under the name "Conservatism, posted on 12/12/2010. 
10/12/2010
'Back in EU after 8 months in the Middle East and recently returned to the solitary life so I'm toying with the idea of raiding again.'
I believe "raiding" is a World of Warcraft idiom.

But, what was he doing in the Middle East for 8 months?

UPDATE -

Here's some possible corroboration to the story that this is Anders Behring Breivik,

By the way, note that on this thread, those who participate in the discussion with "Conservatism" refer to him as "Anders", and seem to be very familiar with him, to the point of having missed him even though he had been gone for 9 months.
I was surprised to see you on last night Anders. I wondered if it was you. I'm starting to play again for Cataclysm although I wouldn't of said I was an SM veteran but yeah, i'll be around.. trying to figure how the funk you play a hunter these days.
SOMEONE PLEASE GET SCREENSHOTS OF THESE PAGES FOR ME!

Let us be clear about this; if he had spent 8 months in the Middle East, it does not prove that his attack on children, or on a government building, were Jihad-related.

He could have been in the Middle East on business.

However, of course, his business was called "GeoFarm", and was, according to reports I have read, involved in the sale and distribution of farming supplies.

The Middle East is not known for it's farming.

So, what would he have been doing in the Middle East? Perhaps he had other business interests.

COUNTER-ATTACKING EVIL AND JIHAD AND TERRORISM/TERRORISTS ISN'T EVIL.

Yes.

You are right.

I stand corrected.

This is the psychological equivalent of murdering your loving wife and eight adoring children and then burning down the house with the dogs locked inside.

The guy supposedly thought along lines similar to many of us on the side of truth and liberty yet has done more damage to the cause of freedom than any individual enemy of ours could in his wildest dream.

If his description is accurate, he had to know this result?

Reason demands that more information will surface to explain this puzzle.

Why would a jihadist attack the Labour party? Makes no sense. The Labour party is pro muslim.
Now the fact that the Labour party was against restrictions on islam, and his twisted thinking was pushed further by close contact with muslims during the 8 months, leading to the attacks.... that tracks.
