OSLO, Norway -- The man blamed for attacks on Norway's government headquarters and a youth retreat that left at least 92 dead said he was motivated by a desire to bring about a revolution in Norwegian society, his lawyer said Sunday. A manifesto that he is believed to have written ranted against Muslim immigration to Europe and vowed revenge on "indigenous Europeans" who he accused of betraying their heritage.
Although lawyer for the 32-year-old Norwegian suspect, Anders Behring Breivik, said his client acted alone, police conducted raids on a garage and sheds in an industrial neighborhood of eastern Oslo, said police officer Kjell Bjerklund.
Survivors of the mass shooting on Utoya island that killed at least 85 young people reported seeing two assailants, and police have said they were looking into those accounts and had not ruled out a second suspect. Another seven people were killed in Friday's bombing in an Oslo government building.

He simply looked up on the Internet how to manufacture an Ammonium Nitrate (fertilizer) bomb and much like the rest of us do when searching how to make a good apple pie, proceeded to successfully accomplish what even practiced terrorists have had much difficulty accomplishinng, build a huge bomb and detonate it successfully.
Likewise, someone who had (apparently) no Military training/experience, goes out and obtains some weapons (including difficult to acquire--as reported--fully-automatic ones) and ammunition and proceeds (without ever having praticed, prepared or had any "instructions") to massacre some 80+ young children.
Makes sense to me!!! /sarc

Perhaps now the sheeple in every country will be comparing anyone who warns of the coming Muslim storm with that mad man. For that reason, does the massacre help the Muslim cause?
Sure and all this in a country where you can’t buy more than 10 aspirin at a time and where everything costs 4 times as much as it does here.
He was going after the political party who were in his opinion enabling the Muslims to destroy their culture. More pointedly, he was going after their future generation of leaders and trying to nip it at the bud so to speak. From what I read these were the kids of the elite, the future movers and shakers of Norway.
Horrific as it is, there was a logic behind the madness. Pretty sure he didn’t act alone either.
It's hard to comprehend that someone would commit such a devastating act in order to make a point unless the actor was a Muslim and not a Christian as alleged.
From what I understand, this was a camp sponsored by their liberal political party. In his mind, the shooter was exterminating future liberals.
>> does the massacre help the Muslim cause?
There only is one relevant cause: The human cause.
This only helps the devils cause.
Those who have eyes shall see.
All these terrorists are so cowardly. Slaughtering a bunch of teenagers on an isolated island, very brave - not!
It is a shocking disgrace how long it took the cops to get there. They need to make some changes stat.
Divers continued to comb the lake waters around Utoya Island where some 600 young people were attending a Labor Party summer retreat when it came under attack....
Noble goal, lousy method.
agreed... water takes time to boil...
All crazy people have a logic that makes sense to them at the time.
Reagan was a democrat - suppose a crazy guy attacked his summer camp.
This is more like the sunni and the shite killing each other in the name of allah.
It was a POLITICAL retreat
These kids were future leaders of a political party which Breivik felt was allowing Norway to be overrun with Muslims.
He was attempting to destroy the political party he felt was destroying Norway.
Norwegian Charles Manson?
The word is forshadow.
The American lefties in the press know the death in Norway forshadows their own
I think Norway will actually address the Islamic situation instead of creating a police state that protects Islamic infiltration of government offices.
Obviously its being portrayed that again its the religion of peace being in the center of all the problems, there here and everywhere.
While it all too apparent that one must condemn this attack one can also reserved his or her own thoughts about how they when they are backed against the wall will confront Islam and its predetermined eventual world domination.
What would Americans think about all across America the Boy Scouts were forced to learn the Koran? or this scenario that Obama does indeed get re-elected and forms his Youth Corp?
Islam creates the Timothy McVeighs of the world.
My postings do not accept or support the actions of the Norway shooter and his choice of political protest. But during times of war everyone is guilty at one time or another of atrocities.
