Huge explosion at the government quarters in Oslo.

Apparently the terrorist disguised as a policeman told a group of children to come over to him before opening fire on them. Absolutely sick.

I wonder how many Afghans/Iraqis/Arabs/etc are worth one Norwegian? 10, 100, ...?

Your point being? Do you seriously think Norway's small presence in Afghanistan justifies this?

Jog on. :mad:

Tbh their all a product of the Bush Snr/Jnr grudge system, blame them they ar ethe ones who started this.

He is already known to the police.

Hoping that it's only a few people behind it so that it can be case closed and people can get over it.

Indeed. What an idiot.

It's homegrown attack, a "Caucasian man impersonating a police officer" , it's not islamic based. Looks like a homegrown with a serious grudge.

We don't have any details, you are making assumption with regards to any Islamic link.

Yeah, Islamic extremism started after 2001.

Way to forget nearly two centuries of history. Jesus.

Well we know that Islamic extremism was rife in the 20'th century, not so much beforehand. I don't actually get your point. We know the potential hate of the muslims, they started it, they breed the hate. What is our point?

It is obviously a surprise to you that political Islam started in the 7th century AD and it crushed existing empires/cultures/peoples between then and now.

You should not feel entitled to a valid political opinion because people told you 'THE BUSHES DID IT'.

Start your education now.

I know that Abraham/God dismissed the arabs as rejects, Christ ruled supreme, the arabs were born to a whore, they are the devils spawn.

Conformed as a Norwegian gunman.

He must have had some bloody gun on him :eek:

Twentyone · 22 Jul 2011 at 21:48

There are witnesses reporting that they have seen a guy in a police sweater like the one the gunman was wearing around where the bomb went off.

I'm glad he didn't shoot himself. Now maybe they get some answers.

I think it was a machine gun, a shotgun (possibly) and a handgun.

I can't see how they took him in alive. :confused:

scorza · 22 Jul 2011 at 21:52

Ugh, just seen a horrific picture of the corpses floating in the water, with one child still alive pleading for his life.

Azza · 22 Jul 2011 at 21:52

Person arrested wasn't Norwegain they just said... unless the bloke doing translation on the BBC has translated it wrong.

Do they believe this guy also planted the bomb? I went to work shortly after this thread was made so haven't been able to keep up with events.

The justice minister has just confirmed the suspect arrested today at the youth camp in Utoeya was Norwegian.

As I said earlier
