What a tragic, shocking day for Norway and its people. My thoughts and sympathies are with them.

Feel much "better" today in Oslo. Was a lunatic sicko. Felt the worst
if it was totally religion.
It was so diverted-
Why a bomb there when Oslo and Goverment is closed for vacation, Friday 3.20PM, and the forecast was raining cats'n dogs, non tourist area.
Well, just to get police and medics a bit busy.
Sad day but...

Using this tradegy to continue spreading your xenophobic, American hating crap is unacceptable. You are pathetic.

Guess he´s concerned and busy doing more important things regarding the last hours than reading and editing this forum.

This is getting much worst. It is something beyond man's mind. 80 kids????
As a father I totally understand the pain. May this be the last one.
All our love to Norway. Our thoughts are with you.

Latest info: The apprehended man is Anders Behring Breivik. He is on facebook. He had a Glock pistol and a automatic weapon. Here is his facebook side:

[nb-no.facebook.com]

I can't believe he was "apprehended". In America, people like this are not apprehended. They either have the decency to kill themselves or they get shot to pieces by a SWAT team.

So sad to hear that the death toll went so much higher and included so many. A terrible tragedy. It shocks everybody.

My thoughts and condolences are with the Norwegian people.

Best wishes to BV, my friend Erik Snow and all IORR contributors from this wonderful & beautiful country.

Anders Behring Breivik is an real fan of this kind of "American Life": [www.spiegel.de]

I'm not. But I'm not an "Amrican Hater"!!!

So, people, cool down, please. It's too much blood ...

Shelter to all people in Oslo and Norway, it's just a shot away from Hamburg.

Peace to the world.

Seems like his facebook side is withdrawn now. There is very little information about the man. But he is talking to the police which means that we may get an answer to his reason for this insane deed. Some information i got that he lived with his mum until two weeks ago when he moved out to the country. No earlier conviction except for one speeding ticket ten years ago. Member of Fremskrittspartiet until 2004, a party that is critical to the multi-cultural society and immigration from Asia and Africa. Hated Gro-Harlem Brundtland, former Norwegian Prime Minister and a Social Democrat (Arbeiderpartiet). Member on a Swedish Nazi internet site, Nordisk.nu. Admired Sir Winston Churchill and Jonh Stuart Mill. Bought 6 tons of artificial fertilizer two months ago. Owns license for two weapons.

First of all: many condolences to all the people who were hit so hard by this terrorist. It's utterly sad.

We can't ignore that all those deadly bullets came from the extreme right, a very dangerous political movement. This killer is an admirer of and inspired by the right extremist Dutch politician and member of the Dutch parliament, Geert Wilders, who is constantly seeding hate against immigrants, muslims and social-democrats and socialists. And this person Geert Wilders calls his hate seeding "freedom of speech"! I feel sad, angry and ashamed about that aspect. But most of all sad. It's simply unbelievable. And they gave this man a weapon license as well, I've read! Good Lord!

Thanks for your concerns, and to Adrian, Rockman and Adotulipson for well wishes. I was nowhere near Oslo at the time, though
Hope nobody at this board have lost family members

As TE pointed out, the bomb could had taken far more lives, if it went off a few minutes earlier

The absolute worst part of this event was what took place on that island - there's just no words that can be said

My condolences

My heart goes out to everyone in Norway. What a terrible act.

I hope the country, the city, the victims, and all who loved them can find a way to recover.

Sad day.

I have been climbing the mountains the past week and watching the Tour de France in the late afternoon. Last night time stood still as the Tour pictures were replaced by bombed blocks of central Oslo city government buildings. Buildings I use to have customer meetings in at times. Then a couple of hours later we hear about shootings at a nearby small island where the labour party youths have their yearly summer camp. I go to bed with bad bad feelings. And I don't sleep many hours, only to wake up with the news that more than 80 youths have been shot dead at the camp. Time stand still now in Norway. Our flag is at half post. There were around 600 young people on this small island and more than 100 are not accounted for. More than 30 are seriously wounded in hospitals and another 50-100 are also hospitalized. Norway is a small country and we are all very sad.

Please do not use this thread for political statements or political opinions. This is a tragedy and terror, nothing more, nothing less. Nobody can ever change Norway by terror. We will be the same after this, just very sad right now. Thanks for the nice thoughts and concern to everyone, highly appreciated at these times.

Bjornulf

Sincere condolences from America to all the people of the Norway.

A very very sad day.

My heart goes out to my Norwegian friends. How does a mind get to the point where this kind of sickness seeps in? Horrible.

Condolences from Chicago.

What shocking and horrendous news from Norway. Best wishes to BV, The Worst and all our Norwegian contributors at this time.

A very very sad day.

My hear goes out to the victims and their families. Where I grew up in the New York City area there is a large Norwegian-American community most of whom first arrived in the Bay Ridge Brooklyn area. They are fine people.

Some of the political comments in this thread are beneath contempt!

it will be hard not to touch politics

No, actually it is very easy. Just don't bring it up. Just keep in mind what a terrible day this is for all the relatives and friends of those people who died.

Well, theoretically you're right. But when someone somewhere refers to 9/11 it seldom or never happens without mentioning Bin Laden and muslim terrorism. This was no accident or natural disaster either.

Please show respect by NOT using this thread for discussing events or positics, and please use the Edit Post link under your post if you did so. Now. Thanks.

As for politics, such discussions are NOT accepted on IORR, not here, not in this thread, not anywhere else. There are thousands sites left wing right wing hate no hate and so on where you can take such discussions, but not here.

In Norway we simply say the country will be the same as before. We will have the same freedom of speach and the same open country and they say they want to keep the camp - take back the camp. We do not want armed police in the streets and in camps and rules for what to do and where to go at all times. Norway will be the same democracy as before. Our King Harald of Norway just said in public exactly the same as the priminister today, we will continue the country as it was before. Terror will never win.

I do not want any discussions about the person or persons who did it here. It is a well known info read all over the news. For us it is time to move on, and to remember there are hundreds of parents, brothers, sisters and friends who have a hard time and a sad day. Not time for hate, but time for thoughts and respect.

Thank you.

Bjornulf

Yes, never let terror win.

Never change because of one person.

All this killed people. It's so sad.

Thank you Bjornulf for these true words. My thoughts and prayers go out to all the families and friends of the victims. Also to all the people of Norway who are shocked by this terrible assault.
