NKR reporting that a group calling themselves “Helpers of Global Jihad” is claiming responsibility.
The bomb or explosive device looks like it was massive.
How many are they now saying were killed?
Anybody thinks WH or State dept will issue a lame statement telling us not to jump to conclusions? That idiot Napolitano will double her effort at checking the TPers and reassure the public ‘the system worked’?
Any time now.
I am not sure on fatalities. Judging from the pictures posted there were at least two on the street. There probably more in the buildings. Journalists in the VG building across the street reported seeing dead people on the upper floors.
I think the police currently operates with “several fatalities”.
Also several kids shot at that youth camp.

Reports: Four people killed during shooting at ruling Labour party youth meeting on Utoya Island, Norway
BTW. The former labour prime minister Brundtland was at the youth camp today having a speech to the kids.
Thanks for the update.

There are 700 people on the island camp. At 5.20 pm ambulance personel were told not to proceed out to the island because there was still shooting there. One Labour youth member tweeted: “We are sitting down by the beach. A man is shotting clothed in a police uniform. Help us! When are the police coming to help us!”
Police stormtroopers are about to land on Utoya island from helicopters. Shooting still going on. Eyewitness describes shooting from his position on the mainland: “There is a little war going on out there”
omg. I’ve been away from news for several hrs, so I’m trying to catch up.
Stay safe there
“war”...
more like slaughter.
BOY IT SURES SOUNDS LIKE OKLAHOMA CITY; 1995 ALL OVER AGAIN......sorry I thought I was having a flash back for a second.
What time of the day was the explosion?
~3:30 pm local time
Do you work for the New York Times?
NRK reporting they have captured the shooter at Utøya.
Clearly this is the work of the Midwest Militias. The Obama Admin is dispatching Homeland Security to round up the usual suspects in Indiana, Michigan and Ohio...
Thank you. So it was still during the work day. Looking at the photos there have to be more than just 2 dead
Many more than two...
