Mecca has got to go in one big bang.

Much obliged. I just hadn't heard that the perp might be a member of the Religion of Peace. If so, an al-Qaeda sleeper (or maybe somebody who just decided to convert online and then got bomb-making instructions from various websites trying to get his 72 virgins) is a definite possibility.

PS: Makes me wonder when the "good muslims" -- of the "religion of peace" -- are going to stand up and raise their voices about the barbarism caused by their fellow followers. Methinks this better happen soon, for their sake. Else it will be "open season" on ALL of them, and they will lose, big time. What they are leading to is a world wherein they will be killed on site, not unlike the Nazis of WWII.

I thought I just saw an article around here tongiht that suggested that it was a student acting alone. Are my wires crossed or what?

More of the "peaceful" Muslims are making excuses than condemning. To Hell with them....literally. We are fools to tolerate them here.

Second Amendment bump to that!

They are too busy having their official lobbying organizations preparing press releases on the supposed harrassment and mistreatment of the poor 'moderate muslims' by evil infidels ... they have learned to play the victim card, but not to police their own ...

From this article........

Police chief inspector Mikko Maunuksela Police official Tero Haapala said the man was from Helsinki and was under the age of 20.

When Muslims do resist the barbarism, they are killed. Here are some recent posted examples:

Please don't boot us out The [Albanian] refused to join the Medveq Presheve Buyanavoc group, which fought with the Kosovan Liberation Army against the Serbs. But that refusal placed the five-strong family in mortal danger - on one occasion part of his hand was blown off by a fire bomb as an act of intimidation.

Nope, I read the same thing in the first article that I saw. Seems more is coming out now.

"We have had some accidents in Finland since the Second World War, but nothing like this has ever happened before,"

Welcome to the BIG SHOW... Sven...
You cannot declare neutrality, when the killers bring the war to the local shopping mall.

probably one of those bosnian muslims... al qaida comes in many flavors, even native-born americans... once they take the blue pill of islam, it is only a matter of time.

Welcome to the real world... you for us, or against us now sven?

[Robert_Paulson2]

What, yet another muslim/arab/bosnian student visa... fake or expired.. religion of pieces member.
We need to start the pool...

On this one we are looking for the date and hour that the press first leaks this MAY be a muslim or arab... and then secondarily, the date and time that the fins will wake up and smell the coffee, and announce what we already suspect:
...yet another religion of pieces donation of nails, ball bearings and body parts, wrapped around C-4 detonator..

The interior of the bomb blasted shopping mall in Vantaa, near Helsinki, is seen October 12, 2002. The powerful bomb which ripped through a packed shopping center in a Helsinki suburb, killing seven and injuring dozens, was suspected to have been carried out by one of the casualties, Finnish police said.

I'm going to nitpick and remind everyone that Finns(my grandma's family is Finnish) are not Nordic, nor Scandinavian(except geographically)

Ethnically and linguistically, they share more with Turkic tribes that moves West from the steppes in Asia, than they do with any Germanic Swede. Look at their eyes too, very different usually.
