I’d seen someone surmising that he might have set the bomb off remotely, so he would have been able to take a boat to the island while doing so, thus he could in fact have been the bomber and the shooter.
Rambo had nothing on this Norwegian.
This Norwegian had incredible skills. He put together a powerful car bomb and we have seen how hard that is from Times Square and London. To top that off he planted another bomb high up in a nearby building and timed it to go off when the first responders were on scene dealing with the first device. That takes a high degree of expertise and coordination. Only a highly trained demo man could pull this off. But that is of course not all. He then drove 40 miles, got in a boat, talked his way into a camp in a disguise and killed 87 people with small arms. Somehow, at some point, whether earlier or during this evolution, he also planted a third bomb on the island but that one was discovered and disarmed.
This would make James Bond green with envy.
The skills necessary for a bombmaker are generally different from those of a shooter. This one guy was a one man Army. Or so we are told less than 8 hours after action.
One lone “madman” with a “minor” criminal record...
I ain’t buying it.
