Norway...

My heart goes out to all those people affected by the Oslo bombing and the Utöya massacre.

Hate and Ignorance breeds Death. The unholiest of families. When will the world collectivly wake up and understand this? And that goes for the whole world. Religion, politics, nationalities, ethnicities aside. Hate. Ignorance. Death.

Hi Sam!

Yes, I'm ok. Oslo is not that close. But I know people in Oslo (all safe). Now it seems like it was an attack targeted at the Labour Party (Arbeiderparti) in Norway. First the bomb at the Government building which looks like a diversion in hind sight, and then the shootings at the Labour Party youth organizations camp which had between 5-600 participants. The gunman seems to have been the same person as the bomber. He's a right wing extremist.

In total at least 84 dead youths (ages from 14 years old) and 7 people dead from the bombing in Oslo center.

BBC has pretty good coverge in English: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-14259356

Hopefully the world will start taking the right-wing extremist threat for real now.

It's really sad, like I can't understand it. He walked around cool and calm just shooting those kids on Utøya. Tragic.

It's insane!

I should be working, but I can't tear myself away from the news sites.

And witnesses states he was joyful when he did all this too...

Yes it's like a scene from a horror movie, surely a madman, but a madman with bombs and guns. I think we have to stop laughing at the pathetic neo nazi groups and other extrememists.
It's quite surreal.
