Hopefully no one has been killed. Except the bomber, I don't mind if he gets killed.

Oslo looks grey and depressing.

[Ishoss]

There are reports of explosion at Youngstorget and also a bang at Postgirobygget. Also rumored that the bomb was in the cantina of the government HQ. But nothing official as of yet.

No reports of deaths. But it seems incredible that no one died. I pray to whoever rules this planet that this is the case.

[Ishoss]

I find it funny that they continued to show TdF up till now on Norway's most popular channel, while theh only showed direct-pictures and so on on their newschannel.

[Ringeck]

There is nothing confirmed yet, we're getting reports of one blast, then two, then one again, then two. The police are widening their cordon. It has not been confirmed that there was a bomber, and no deaths have been reported so far.

I couldn't even hear it, up here in the hills. But the museum is a bit noisy today.

[Ishoss]

They are reporting deaths.

So, anarchists, neo-fascists or muslims?

Gaddaffi? Gas blast?

[Adar]

So, anarchists, neo-fascists or muslims?

Very few anarchists or neo-fascists in Norway. Most likely muslims considering that previous bomb-plots have been stopped.

An extreme wild card would be satanists but they didn't do that kind of stuff even in the 90-s

no one cries when a bomb goes off in iraq or when "suspected terrorists" are sent to guantanmo because.... they are muslim?

No because it's far away and a common occurance.

But there were Church Arsons in those days, no?

Muslims. How's multiculturalism working out for you, Norway?

[Dubh the dark]

Muslims. How's multiculturalism working out for you, Norway?

Really? I just listened to a government spokesman Hans Admunsen and he said they don't know who is behind the attack yet.

Is it too much to ask that we just wait for proof, before blaming anyone?

Of course we wait. But that's the most likely explanation.

I think you know how that is working... Though I highly doubt this was enough for the government to understand that.

right and the hundreds of innocents killed by western bombers? seriously dont be so naiive, you declare war on a country YOU MUST be ready for some retaliation. What makes the life of a european so much more precious than that of a libyan

I think it is quite obvious. Intelligent beings have more value than animals.

ah so some can be killed with impunity? Hmm that makes arguing with right wing extremists easier, just gun em down like the apes they are.
