SCANPIX, via Associated Press Deadly explosions shattered windows on Friday at the government headquarters in Oslo, which includes the prime ministers office. A spokeswoman for Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg said he was safe. More Photos » The police said they did not know if the man, identified in the Norwegian press as Anders Behring Breivik, was part of a larger conspiracy. He is being questioned under the countrys terrorism laws and is cooperating with the investigation, they said.
We are not sure whether he was alone or had help, a police official, Roger Andresen, said at a televised press conference, adding: What we know is that he is right-wing and a Christian fundamentalist. So far Mr. Breivik has not been linked to any anti-jihadist groups, he said.

Exactly.
It’s not like they got the wrong guy.
Now paging Ranya Bardiwell and Phil Carson....
I wouldn't put it past the globalists to pull a stunt like the stadium shooting in your first book in order to get global gun control on the fast track since the US Senate has been most uncooperative in that arena as of yesterday it seems...
He’s still alive and he can still talk.
But for now, he has broken the terrorist mold.
LOL. Very true. I think the police have the right guy, and this clown had some twisted political motive.
We’ll see, I certainly won’t be surprised it islamics and this guy were working together.
It’s too early to say for sure.
I’m the most supportive of destroying the islamic world, but I really am sickened of this fool taking out kids on a beslan style attack.
Neo-Nazis guilty of Oslo race murder
But I should have been more precise. I didn't mean "neo-nazi" as strictly members of a neonazi group.
Check posts by Eurotwit. He has related some interesting facts about the guy.
Actually, a very small island like that should be easy to defend, so long as the need for defense is given due consideration.
What I was responding to is the reported ninety minute delay after law enforcement became aware of the island attack.
I do not know Norway’s emergency response structure, I would hope it is similar to Sweden, but would not presume so.
Ninety minutes is an eternity in such a situation, any country on earth should be able to summon a response faster than that.
From what I observe, the more “primitive” the society the faster their response to a similar attack would be.
In our overly “Civilized” society we have too many chiefs required to grant permission, hand out the weapons, coordinate the response, consult with lawyers, prepare the press release, etc.
In the “backward” regions a camp staffer would have just shot the SOB as soon as his intent became clear.
Or maybe one of the kids themselves, in some parts of the world that is still a possibility!
This guy’s actions are a war crime, imo. He should be interogated and hanged. And that’s going easy.
I suppose it’s theoretically possible he was enraged more by left wing domestic enablers than by the actual muzzie colonists.
Who would be shocked at one of ours, that went nut-up, going after a journalistic institution rather than an actual statist/collectivist institution?
I’m glad they got this guy. It’s rare to get a spree killer alive.....they typically off themselves. From a forensic perspective, this is going to be an interesting case study.
And seriously, regardless of whether FReepers think this some lone nut, or a part of a greater conspiracy, the one thing we can all agree on is to keep the Norwegian people in our thoughts and prayers.
BTW, the media in Scandinavia (Norway, Sweden, Denmark) has decided this is an OKC attack. Not so much bias as total ignorance. I bet my right hand that none of the journalists never ever even heard of Jayna Davies.
Sure, but I thought that was the point of the bomb. Divert attention, and attack the island.
Lots of blame to go around. Clearly they didn’t expect this at all.
IMO the guy went apeshit on a weird target. Interogate and kill him if there’s nothing else.
>>Im the most supportive of destroying the islamic world, but I really am sickened of this fool taking out kids on a beslan style attack.<<
I don’t see what one has to do with the other. It doesn’t add up.
They entered the island, but waited for him to run out of ammunition on the children before arresting him.
Here are the valiant police cowering behind their van.
Just as bad a performance as the Indian police in Mumbai.
Maximum penalty possible: 21 years.
His posting history of several years was available in document.no site, but the site is now down.
He came off as a narcissistic psychopath.
They aren’t really, just examples of evil. IMO islamic attacks are always directed by their source documents, must like Mein Kampf directed Nazi stuff.
I doubt this guy had much motication though of anything. We’ll see.
>>Who would be shocked at one of ours, that went nut-up, going after a journalistic institution rather than an actual statist/collectivist institution?<<
My point is why are some automatically believing the “Christian Right-Wing Nutjob” description, with nary a doubt or question?
I mean, it’s not like there isn’t an established pattern of demonizing the right and Christians. See: Timothy McVeigh.
It really is amazing to me.
