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.

Amen to that. What was he trying to do? Was his objective to kill and then have the public believe it was done by Muslims?
Any idiot could see that wasn’t a workable plan. A crazy person might think so.
I read they were Labour Party youth activists, which in this case included people in their 20s.
At some point Manson tried to get the blacks blamed for some of his murders. Sounds like what this crazy guy was trying to do.
What a shame. Poor children who lost their lives because of this man. By European standards... this man could be facing 20 years.
Oh horsefeathers.
I believe it is possible the killer could have done all this by himself; however, they will find a network of moral support urging such acts. As Lincoln noted, we will have to find the wily agitator behind this act and shoot him.
The “police” response was mild to say the least.
Thanks for the information.
The Euro backlash against multiculti has been brewing for some time. This nutcase is criminally outlandish. He thought about it for a long time and became crazier and crazier and then he went berserk. The political correct euromuslim thing is more than he could handle. Unfortunately, he could not be intercepted before doing such harm and senseless killing. It is almost more like an act of anarchy than anything else, wanton senseless destruction against the system and citizens.
The thing is, the promise of jihad combined with destruction of western culture is enough threat to some nationalists in Europe to rationalize an insanely violent response. People will react against the marxist credo creeping in to eliminate their national identity. I have been expecting something like this to happen but I though it would occur in some more islamic country like England or France.
It's worked with some people here. You could have a full confession from this guy and they would say it was a Muslim. I know that we ask many times "If mainstream Islam isn't represented by terrorist why don't more Muslims come out and condem those attacks." Well, I'll be the first to say publicly that even if this guy claims to be a Christian and a right winger he doesn't represent me, my faith, or those of you who stand with me for what is right. Our cause isn't about seeking out and killing a bunch of kids.
My thinking is more along the lines of Stockton Schoolyard.
Dude want to start another crusade.
I could see this spreading around the globe, and it could repeat itself in other places, like in Australia.
But I don’t quite see it happening here in America, not to say it won’t but should an Obama regime take further and continued control of the nation, his Youth Corp, his protectionist stance for all Moslems including mass murderers then I could probably admit we could not just have one or a couple of similar incidents of lone wolf anarchists like this but a simultaneous uprising of several hundred across the country.
Non are connected to each other in any fashion and if they are it will be by accident.
But being uncontrolled lone wolfs they will seek no logical tactical plan, no plan of sanity, not even sane, it will be sheer frustration and insanity brewed by what they feel is wrong. And in this rage they will seek targets of opportunity. Any soft target, and thats the key phrase, the “soft” target.
I don’t think so. I’m leaning toward “crazy as a sh!thouse rat”. Charles Manson type. Virginia Tech gunman crazy. Columbine crazy. The more I read about this, the less I see any type of reason for it. The VT shooter has the same manifesto. In the end, the only reason was to kill.
It is odd there was no security on the island. I wonder if the kids demanded that lack of security.
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?
His actions don’t match his words. If he REALLY wanted to do that, he would have rampaged on Muslim kids and caused a backlash. But instead, he killed kids who looked just like him.
didn’t pam geller say that someone had changed his facebook page to “Christian”?
