Here is a video the shooter made and posted on youtube
"In the beginning of a change, the Patriot is a scarce man, brave, hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, however, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a Patriot."
And if some Right Wing Nut Christian lunatic, had phoned in and claimed responsibility for these attacks... Would you be expecting an attack??
Any threat or claim of responsibility should be taken seriously no matter the race or religion
"In the beginning of a change, the Patriot is a scarce man, brave, hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, however, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a Patriot."
Apparently this young adult didn't know that there are other ways to change the landscape of your nation, if you so choose to. He could have joined the political arena and became vocal, instead of violent, on issues he disagreed with.
Sadly, he will go down in history as a nutcase, which in fact he is, instead of a practical reformist which was probably his goal!
thanks for the video Henry!

Norway bomber said to be influenced by Sarah Palin Campaign Speeches, Michelle Bachmann, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Pat Robertson and The Tea Party. Bomber was overheard by witnesses reciting Ronald Reagan's Mr. Gorbachev "Tear Down This Wall" speech.
Good source... It proves that this Right Wing Terrorist was, as many Right Wingers in this country... an Anti Islam Fanatic.
The NATO bombing of Serbia in 1999 that "tipped the scales" for him because he sympathized with Serbia's crackdown on ethnic Albanian Muslims in Kosovo. A year later he said he realized that what he called the "Islamization of Europe" couldn't be stopped by peaceful means.
Islamophobia in Europe as it is in the USA, fuels Right Wing Terrorists like Norway's Anders Behring Breivik.

Yes, the "right wing" terrorist was fueled by the "left wing" terrorist Bill Clinton that decided bomb Serbia during Kosovo's secession and justified the bombings as "humanitarian" to prevent genocide. Kind of like Libya - by using Muslims genocide to sell the bombing of Serbia, in order to protect an oil pipeline.
This mad bomber is just another example of blowback as a result of America and the West meddling in nation’s affairs.
I merely posted a quote from your link Cicero. I'm sorry that your link provided the opposite of your opinion.
If you want a link to prove your point... (kind of self explanatory) then the link needs to prove your point... not disprove it.

What was my point? I didn't make a point, I merely posted link about the effect of the Clinton/NATO bombing had on this guy's psyche. In my next post, I did make a point - that was about U.S. intervention into foreign civil wars and the blowback. Whether it is Muslim fanatics or fanatical nationalists, for every action of western powers meddling in foreign affairs there is an opposite reaction.
This story was so positive... It was working so well when the Righties all were soooo sure the killer would turn out to be a Muslim terrorist... then sadly... he turned out to be one of their own... a Muslim hating Christian. What a disappointment.

Huh??? Disappointment? One of their own? He's NORWEGIAN. I don't think I have a drop of Norwegian blood in me or even a passport with a Norwegian stamp. I'm not very religious either. I can't speak for anybody else.
What this does say is, Europe's and Norwegian policies radicalized one of their own citizens. Let's hope this is a lone wolf, and Europe doesn't have to defend itself from Arab radicals AND European radicals.
"The same anti-Muslim bigotry that influenced Anders Breivik in Norway is widespread among right-wing extremists in America, and could trigger a similar attack here"...
