Fox News are reporting that there are now 80, mostly young children and youth, have been killed in Norway.
What a horrible tragedy.
From Fox News: A homegrown terrorist set off an explosion that ripped open buildings in the heart of Norway's government Friday, then went to a summer camp dressed as a police officer and gunned down youths as they ran and even swam for their lives, police said Friday.
And it looks I may have been wrong to blame Muslim terrorists:
A police official said the 32-year-old ethnic Norwegian suspect arrested at the camp on Utoya island appears to have acted alone in both attacks, and that "it seems like that this is not linked to any international terrorist organizations at all." The official spoke on condition of anonymity because that information had not been officially released by Norway's police.
"It seems it's not Islamic-terror related," the official said. "This seems like a madman's work."
The official said the attack "is probably more Norway's Oklahoma City than it is Norway's World Trade Center." Domestic terrorists carried out the 1995 attack on a federal building in Oklahoma City, while foreign terrorists were responsible for the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks.
The official added, however, "it's still just hours since the incident happened. And the investigation is going on with all available resources."
The motive was unknown, but both attacks were in areas connected to the ruling Labor Party government. The youth camp, about 20 miles northwest of Oslo, is organized by the party's youth wing, and the prime minister had been scheduled to speak there Saturday.

AP Reports this: A suspect in the shootings and the Oslo explosion was arrested. Though police did not release his name, Norwegian national broadcaster NRK identified him as 32-year-old Anders Behring Breivik and said police searched his Oslo apartment overnight. NRK and other Norwegian media posted pictures of the blond, blue-eyed Norwegian.

If indeed it was not done by a Muslim group, I apologize for reporting that. However, earlier in the day, a Muslim terrorist group took responsibility for the bombing.
And if this tragedy was done by a Christian, then you know, then you do have to look at this guy's associations and go after them. But I am sure that most, if not all Christian groups will condemn this bombing, unlike many, many Muslims who actually celebrated and did not condemn the 9/11 terrorist attacks and other Muslim terrorist attacks around the world.
So, I do apologize for getting it wrong before but I do not apologize for my view on the Muslim religion which, to me, is not a religion of peace, but a religion of violence.

Umm, nice theory, but wrong. Israel is a legitmate nation with a history.
ReplyDeleteI am sure that you are talking about Palestinans. How come the other Arab countries have not come to the assitance with offfers of land and money.
But thank you for your contribution, Ido appreciate it.
