Must have been a very frustrated and somewhat looney person to be taking that out on kids - 80 the last I heard - so sad.
Actually from his view it makes perfect sense the kids were the next generation of the hated Leftists. What better way to harm your enemy than to kill their young?
The problem that I have with many of the liberals at this site at the moment is that most fail to realize that this party in Norway is considered centrist and while leaning slightly to the left, is far more centrist than other parties in its coalition. I do not think he was trying to eradicate the left or some jibberish...
Honestly I think the man is just deranged, though he had extreme right leaning sensibilities it doesn't seem to be part of a group or organization. Judging by his actions he must be insane.
And the comparison to fundamentalists in America to right wing Scandinavian neo nazis is a terrible one. Though I don't particularly like Christian fundamentalist, caused they have more or less made my GOP go so far to the right as to be unelectable in national elections, I certainly can not condone the labeling of Christian fundamentalists as akin to large, well supported Islamic terror organizations that serve as the ruling governments of some Muslim countries (Hamas etc.). We still don't know why the man did it.
Looking at all the chatter by Muslim groups it simply just looks this nut case beat them to it. Unfortunately they'll probably try to copy cat this.
However, just we truly need to wait till ALL of the facts are in before we start the political diatribe that I knew would occur regardless of the affiliation of the terrorist

People assumed its got to be a Muslim even before there were any facts. Truth is, there have been terrorist attacks by non-muslims in European countries before that.

When a serial killer is discovered people always assume it's a white guy because it probably is, but when we assume a terrorist attack is done by a muslim or a blackout/flash rob type robbery is done by blacks liberal tears start to flow.
To be honest,the guy just seems to be a nutjob...because IF your problem was with a political ideology,why would you target children,even if those children were at a youth camp run by the political party you despised.
But sadly this will probably be used for political/ideological gain...

I'd like to hear some of the "Christians never resort to violence" crowd explain 'the troubles' in Northern ireland.

Who are the "people" you are talking about? As a European I am familiar with terrorist attacks performed by muslims and non-muslims.
Why do you speak for everyone else? Has it ever occured to you that not everyone thinks like you?

Most people in this thread used the incident to further stress their disdain of Muslims. Somehow, now that the facts are out, they have disappeared.
