TERROR ATTACK IN NORWAY

 

 

Happy and smiling in the sun, youngsters on summer camp in Utoya the day before Breivik launched murderous rampage

  • Politically-engaged youngsters were enjoying annual camp on Utoya Island
  • Killer criss-crossed the island during 90-minute shooting spree as he chased down victims
  • Anders Breivik claimed he would break out of prison after he was caught and kill up to five more people in a 'bonus mission'
  • 33 people confirmed as being dead, but another 43 are still unaccounted for
  • 32-year-old is being held in prison that was former Nazi concentration camp
  • Norwegian police officially identify more of those killed and call off search for more bodies
  • Detectives say they will interview Breivik again on Friday

In glorious sunshine and attention focused during political speeches, these youngsters are pictured on a summer camp the day before the murderous rampage on Utoya island.

Smiling as they enjoyed the annual camp, it is not known how many of the politically-motivated youngsters in this picture were killed when gunman Anders Breivik embarked on his 90-minute murder spree.

For more than 20 years, members of the Norwegian Labour Party's youth group the AUF have descended on Utoya island for the annual camp, which features partying, music and debates.

VICTIMS OF THE MASSACRE

Sharidyn Svebakk-Boehn

Sharidyn Svebakk-Bohn, above, was shot dead on Utoya Island during the 90-minute killing spree carried out by Anders Breivik.

She is among 33 confirmed to have died in the twin bomb and shooting attacks in Norway on Friday. That still leaves 43 unaccounted for, with police looking for bodies in the lake surrounding the island.

 

The pictures were taken by the country's Foreign Minister, Jonas Gahr Stoere, just 24 hours before the mass shooting.

It comes as dramatic details emerged of the moment police finally arrested Breivik after he had gunned down 68 people on the island and killed another eight with a fertiliser bomb in Oslo.

Officers revealed they came within seconds of shooting Breivik as they stormed on to the island as they believed he might be strapped with explosives.

Senior police officer Haavard Gaasbakk said: 'We could see that shots were being fired on the southern tip of the island.

'We could see ammunition hit the water, and we heard the cracks.

'We come to a forested area and the suspect stands there right in front of us with his hands high above his head.

'The situation was very tense, and they couldn't see - the way he was clothed, they worried he could have had a suicide bomber's vest.'

Breivik's gun, a semi-automatic rifle he appeared to have modified to make it automatic, was found on the ground 50ft behind him.

An armed police team was forced to commandeer private speed boats after their vessel developed engine problems on the way to the island.

As they arrived, frantic youngsters pointed to where Breivik was still firing and the officers ran to arrest him.

More than 600 people were evacuated from the island and officers set up an emergency treatment centre for the wounded.

Details of the terrifying 90-minute shooting spree have also emerged, with Breivik crossing the island as he chased victims.

The 32-year-old got off a ferry armed with his rifle, a pistol and carrying ammunition in a bag at 5.07pm on Friday.

Thirty seconds later he shot dead Monica Busei, 45, and off-duty policeman Trond Berntsen, 51, near houses on the island.

He then calls a group of youngsters together at a cafe, claiming he has important news on the Oslo bombing, before executing them.

At 5.15pm, Breivik stalks through the island camp site shooting youths as they try to run away, before reaching a track called Love Path where he kills the majority of his victims.

Police are alerted at 5.33pm, as Breivik shoots people who have jumped into the lake or climbed trees in a desperate bid to get away.

Armed police arrive at the island at 6.26pm, when Breivik drops his weapon and surrenders.

Norwegian police said today they will interrogate Breivik again tomorrow over the bombing and shooting.

Police lawyer Paal-Fredrik Hjort Kraby told a news conference they will question him for the second time, but did not indicate what they will ask him.

Breivik was first questioned for seven hours on the day after the attack.

He has confessed to the attacks, claiming he was trying to save the Western world from Muslim colonisation, but denies responsibility for the killing.

His lawyer said he considers himself a 'saviour' and is likely insanse.

Last night Norwegian police officially identified more of the people killed in both attacks.

Parents of foreign students who were at the camp have also travelled to the Scandinavian country in the hope their children survived.

The body of a young Georgian woman has been identified this morning.

Tamta Liparteliani, a university graduate and Young Socialists activist, was found at the bottom of the lake with gunshot wounds to her back. She was identified by her fingerprints.

A Romanian woman whose daughter was also on the island said she had called and texted her 'hundreds of times' since the attack, but now believes she is dead.

Anca Holst said 15-year-old Karin Elena Holst phoned her to say a man was 'shooting everyone'.

The petrified girl did not want to hang up, but her mother urged her to stop talking and hide, she told Romanian TV.

But she has not heard from her since. 'I think my child is dead,' she said.

Before launching his attacks, which killed a total of 76 people, Breivik wrote of his allegiance to the Knights Templar - which he described as a secret society created to carry out a crusade against Islam in Europe.

A British man called Paul Ray, who writes an anti-Muslim blog called 'Lionheart', has claimed the group does exist and he was one of its founders.

But he denied any contact with Breivik and denied he was the Norwegian's mentor.

In his manifesto, Breivik claimed the group was created at a meeting in London in 2002 and he was mentored by a man called 'Richard (the Lionhearted)'.

The medieval Knights Templar was a Christian military order founded in the early 12th century whose members, wearing white mantles with a red cross, became one of the most formidable fighting forces of the Crusades. It was dissolved in 1312.

Mass murderer caught on CCTV: Anders Breivik pictured with gun in hand fleeing Oslo bomb scene... en route to deadly rampage on Utoya

 

Clad head-to-toe in black body armour and brandishing a handgun, this chilling CCTV image captures Anders Breivik on the brink of committing mass murder.

The 32-year-old Norwegian fanatic is seen shortly after parking a van containing a huge bomb outside government offices in central Oslo. It was to explode just six minutes later, killing eight people and injuring dozens more.

By the time Breivik was caught on security camera, twisting back to check the empty street behind him, he was already en route to carry out an even worse atrocity.

His final destination was to be the picturesque island of Utoya, 25 miles away, where hundreds of young people were attending a holiday camp.

The right-wing extremist killed 69 in a 79-minute long rampage after tricking his way onto the island with a fake ID.

The series of haunting images showing Breivik dressed in the dark police uniform that won his victims' trust, brandishing a weapon as lifeless bodies float in the shallows, shocked Norway and the world.

Survivors described the full horror of how the killer went on his deadly rampage, killing teenagers aged 14 to 19 at the youth camp.

They told in chilling detail how the gunman mowed down victims with a machine gun before clinically shooting them in the head with a shotgun.

He also shot from the shore at terrified youngsters who had dived into the lake in a desperate attempt to escape.

One survivor told how he escaped by playing dead and hiding under victims' bodies as the gunman opened fire.

As Breivik fired round upon round - many aimed at people's backs as they ran away - eyewitnesses said the killer screamed: 'You all must die.'

One unidentified teenage girl described how the killer had gathered his victims around before opening fire.

She said: 'He just said, “Come and be together.” Then people went up to him and he just shot them.'

Breivik has admitted the murders but claims he carried them out to save Europe from a Muslim ‘takeover.'

After the terrible tragedy prime minister Jens Stoltenberg said: 'What happened at Utoya is a national tragedy. Not since World War Two has our country seen a greater crime.

'And what hurts more is that this place where I have been every summer since 1979, and where I have experienced joy, commitment and security, has been hit by brutal violence – a youth -paradise has been transformed into a hell.'

The Queen also sent a message to the King of Norway, which read: 'I am deeply saddened and shocked by the tragic loss of life of so many people on the island of Utoya and in Oslo.

It emerged that Breivik - who owns a farm - bought six tons of fertiliser from a farm supply store on May 4. A spokeswoman for agricultural supply company Felleskjopet said: 'It was a small, normal order for a standard agricultural producer.'

He had also published a manifesto hundreds of pages long online before carrying out the killings on July 22.

It has emerged he had been in contact with hundreds of British right-wing extremists for around two years before the massacre.

The new image was obtained and broadcast by Norwegian ABC Nyheter and is believed to be authentic.

It is understood the gun Breivik is carrying was later recovered by police on Utoya.

Breivik is currently awaiting trial and faces a maximum jail sentence of 21 years.

Fascism behind a mask of morality

All over the world, the initial reaction to the atrocity in Norway was to blame Islamist terrorists. That such horrific carnage could be inflicted in two locations within so short a space of time followed the pattern of the meticulously planned, sophisticated attacks carried out by groups such as Al Qaeda.

It seems almost unthinkable that it could have been perpetrated by a fair-haired Norwegian from the Far Right with a demonic loathing for his country and its citizens.

After all, Norway is known as one of the most progressive social democracies in the world, the home of the Nobel Peace Prize, and recognised for its good deeds around the world. It is achingly beautiful, as well as prosperous – it became enormously rich through North Sea gas and oil – and its quality of life is so high that it has been recognised repeatedly by the United Nations as the best place to live in the world.

But as more has been learned about the monstrous killer Anders Behring Breivik, light has been shone on the dark undercurrents of a country which normally keeps them hidden behind its usually relaxed and affluent demeanour.

Breivik is as pathetically deranged as he is evil. A Christian loner, his internet postings reveal an obsession with the Knights Templar and Freemasonry – both stock elements in the minds of conspiracy theorists.

But in his virulent opposition to immigration and Islam, he is, disturbingly, less out of step with Norwegian public opinion than you might expect.

Breivik is fixated on the effects of multiculturalism on a Norwegian society which only a few generations ago was solidly white, and largely consisted of just farmers and fishermen.

And those views mirror a deeply worrying rise in the popularity of Norway’s Far Right.

Today, 12 per cent of the country’s near-5million people are immigrants or born to immigrant families. Like the rest of Scandinavia, Norway has welcomed in countless hundred thousands of incomers even though, unlike Britain and other European countries such as France, the country has no imperial history which obliges it to do so.

The result is that the far-Right Progress Party – which has been likened to the English Defence League and of which Breivik was a member – received 23 per  cent of the vote in Norway’s  2009 election.

But it is not just Norway. The populist Right has surged throughout Scandinavia, where there is an unsavoury history of popular Fascism.

In Finland, the popularity of the nationalist True Finns party has gone from from 4 per cent to 19 per cent almost overnight.

In Denmark, the Right-wing Danish People’s Party nowadays wins around 13 per cent of the vote and props up the ruling coalition. The main planks of its manifesto are an end to non-Western immigration and an insistence that existing immigrants assimilate completely into Danish culture.

As one of their leading members expressed it: ‘Copenhagen should never become like Beirut’.

In Sweden, the populist Sweden Democrats – slogan ‘Keep Sweden Swedish’ – might not have fared so well in political terms, but neo-Nazism is alive and well in the country. For evidence, you need look no further than perhaps the most famous Swede of all – the late crime writer Stieg Larsson, who wrote The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.

Before he turned his hand to fiction, he was a crusading journalist who spent his working life trying to expose his country’s neo-Nazi underworld, and Sweden is still full of conspiracy theories suggesting that he was murdered by the Far Right.

Contemporary Scandinavia has always been adroit at presenting itself as a benign force in the world, heavily involved – in a moralising sort of way – in most humanitarian organisations. And the population seems to accept largely Social Democrat governments based on high incomes, high taxes and very generous welfare provision.

The truth is, however, that  the Far Right is never far from  the surface in these countries and, as immigration increases,  its resurgence is cause for  serious concern.

To understand why, we have to look at Scandinavia’s past – and, particularly, its role in the Second World War.

Occupied Denmark was indirectly ruled by the German Foreign Office, and quietly got on with supplying Nazi Germany with butter and herrings. Sweden might have been neutral throughout the war, but it supplied Nazi Germany with ten million tons of iron ore a year and allowed the trans-shipment of German troops to both Norway and the Soviet Union. Finland was an important ally on Hitler’s side, although it confined its aggression towards the Soviet Union.

And all four Scandinavian countries provided large numbers of volunteers to the Waffen-SS, where their height and blondness were especially welcomed. The 5th SS Panzer (Viking) Division was especially feared; its medical officer was Joseph Mengele, later the monster medical experimenter of Auschwitz.

Norway, however, was unique in that it had its own home-grown Fascist government throughout the Second World War. After the Germans invaded in April 1940, they found a willing client in Vidkun Quisling, the leader of a small Fascist party, whose name quickly became internationally synonymous with ‘traitor’.

The Germans kept him on a tight leash until early 1942, when he realised his life’s wish of becoming Minister-President, moving into a villa named Gimlé after the mythological Valhalla to which warring Viking gods had passed on. Norway became a one-party state, in which the country’s tiny Jewish population was persecuted.

Many Norwegians joined a British-backed resistance movement, whose most legendary feat was to destroy the Vermork heavy-water plant which Hitler was using to develop an atomic weapon. Quisling surrendered at the end of the war and was tried and sentenced to be executed by firing squad. His former home is now a Holocaust museum.

Breivik might well be a one-off or lone wolf killer, analogous to the Oklahoma bomber Timothy McVeigh or the British neo-Nazi David Copeland, who murdered gay patrons of Soho’s Admiral Duncan pub with nail bombs, with further attacks in Brixton and Brick Lane against ethnic minorities.

But the history of the Far Right in Norway and its neighbouring countries suggests we might not have seen the last of the Breiviks of this world.

 

Anti-immigration ally of Silvio Berlusconi says Breivik had 'some excellent ideas'

A coalition ally of Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi has provoked outrage after he praised the rantings of Norwegian right-wing terrorist Anders Behring Breivik.

Mario Borghezio, an MEP with the anti-immigration Northern League party, who have campaigned against Muslims and the building of mosques, said Breivik had some 'excellent' ideas.

Speaking on an Italian radio show he said he agreed with the maniac's 'opposition to Islam and his explicit accusation that Europe has surrendered before putting up a fight against its Islamisation.'

'Excellent' ideas: Mario Borghezio, an Italian MEP for the anti-immigration Northern League party, left, said he agreed with terrorist mass-murderer Anders Breivik, right, on his views about Muslim immigrants and Islam in Europe

Though Borghezio added that he did not however agree with the use of extreme violence, or Breivik's anti-Papal views, his comments immediately unleashed a storm of fury with his own party apologising to still grieving Norway.

Northern League chief Roberto Calderoli said: 'His comments are terrible and completely unqualified and we can only apologise to the families of the victims for the delirium of what he said.'

The Northern League is a key ally of Berlusconi's ruling right-wing coalition and, although the prime minister did not comment personally, members of his party also rounded on Mr Borghezio.

Carlo Giovanardi, an MP for the Christian Democratic Party, said: 'Is it too much to ask for our Northern League friends to throw Borghezio out of their party?

'We have vain hopes he will resign for what he said but that is unlikely to happen.'

Italy's Foreign Minister Franco Frattini also stepped into the row over Borghezio's comments and said: 'He should offer Norway his personal apologies.

'We as a government cannot intervene directly with an MEP - but we have made it very clear that the best course of action would be for him to make a personal apology.

'His own party has disassociated themselves from him and that is a very important sign - he must feel the duty to say himself that he is sorry for what he said.

'Any message of racism, xenophobia and exclusion or which leads to an incitement of violence or an emulation of violence must be condemned.'

Today internet forums were ablaze with furious comments against Borghezio with one popular post saying that he 'needs to be locked up in a mental asylum and have the key thrown away.'

But there were some comments in his favour with some saying he was 'speaking the truth' and calling on the Northern League to 'support him instead of attack him'.

Borghezio himself was unrepentant and added: 'I said what I said because I have the impression this massacre has a purpose, I don't think this lunatic meant his act to have this outcome.

'What we should ask ourselves is how can someone who was supposed to have been on a watch list been allowed to go around and do what he did?

'Christians should not be sacrificial animals - they should be defended.'

Borghezio has a long history of anti-immigration campaigning - in 2005 he was found guilty of arson, after setting fire to pallets of some migrants sleeping under a bridge in Turin during a vigilante raid.

The centre-left opposition called for Borghezio to resign from the European Parliament.

David Sassoli, an MEP with Italy's Democratic Left opposition, said: 'It is a matter of shame for all of us that a representative of the ruling coalition made apologetic remarks about one of the cruelest acts of terrorism.'

 

'He should have shot himself': Father of Anders Breivik says he wishes his son had committed suicide

No son of mine: Jens Breivik said he wishes his son Anders had committed suicide following his attacks in Norway and added he 'didn't feel like his father'

No son of mine: Jens Breivik said he wishes his son Anders had committed suicide following his attacks in Norway and added he 'didn't feel like his father'

The father of Anders Breivik declared yesterday that he wished his son had killed himself.

Former diplomat Jens Breivik, 76, said he was ‘completely bereft’ and would never speak to his son again.

‘I think that the last thing he should have done, rather than to kill so many people, he should have taken his own life,’ he said at his isolated villa in rural France, where he and his wife are under armed guard.
‘I still do not understand how such things could happen.

'It is not a normal person who does something like that.’

The 76-year-old, who has been estranged from his son since 1995, had been expected to travel to his native Norway yesterday but decided against it.

He told a Norwegian television station: ‘I don’t feel like his father.

‘How could he just stand there and kill so many innocent people and just seem to think that what he did was OK? I will have to live with this shame for the rest of my life.

'People will always link me with him.’

Asked what he would say to his son if he got the chance to talk to him again, Mr Breivik said: ‘I don’t know. He must live in another world - I do not think he would understand.’

Mr Breivik added: 'I will have to live with this shame for the rest of my life. People will always link me with him.'

'My wife Jens left for Spain on Sunday morning to get away from the media pressure.'

Despite being Anders's step-mother, Mrs Breivik has never met him, while Mr Breivik only had a 'short, bland' telephone call with him 10 years ago.

'We've spent terrible nights, not sleeping a wink since his arrest,' said a tearful Mrs Breivik, who was speaking by the high fence surrounding their villa in the village of Cournanel, in the foothill of the Pyrenees, near Carcassonne.

'I've not met Anders but I'm still traumatised. We both are,' said Mrs Breivik.

Today armed police were both inside and outside the single-storey building, which has extensive grounds and a swimming pool.

Antoine Leroy, the Carcassonne prosecutor, said: 'The police are stationed outside the house. Jens Breivik and his wife are inside. The police are there to prevent incidents, any disturbance to public order.'

Couranel has a population of just over 500, and is extremely difficult to get to, but there are still fears about the types of people who might turn up to see the mass murderer's parents, said Mr Leroy.

As well as armed police, detectives could be seen inside the property, together with a French-Norwegian military translator from a nearby army camp.

Mr Breivik had three children from a previous marriage - Erik, Jan and Nina - when he met Anders's mother, Wenche Behring, who had a daughter from a previous relationship.

Mr Beivik divorced Wenche when Anders was just one, and went on to marry Tove Xvermo - known as Wanda - another embassy worker.

Anders became the subject of a custody battle, as Mr Beivik and his new wife wanted to raise him in Paris, but they lost their case.

As a child, Anders used to visit his father at his flat in Paris, and at a holiday home in Normandy, western France. 

Mr Breivik, a past supporter of the Norwegian Labour Party, was a commercial advisor for the Royal Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, attached to the embassies in London and Paris.

 

Breivik's injected his dum-dum bullets with poison to make them deadlier

Evil: Anders Breivik details in his manifesto that he intended to use poison bullets during his killing spree

Anders Breivik could have used ‘chemically enhanced’ ammunition to ensure every shot was deadly, police believe.

In his disturbing ‘manifesto’ he talked of plans to put liquid nicotine in his bullets.

If the blast did not kill victims outright, the nicotine would go on to poison them.

It was already known that Breivik used ‘dum-dum’ bullets during his killing spree – the expanding round has a hollow point which leaves a large exit wound after causing horrific wounds.

In his 1,500-page manifesto he wrote late last year: ‘I’ve now ordered 50ml – 99 per cent pure liquid nicotine from a Chinese online supplier.

‘3-4 drops will be injected in hollow point rifle bullets which will effectively turn it into a lethal chemical weapon.

‘I specifically instructed the Chinese supplier to send the package by courier to my company name, with extra wrapping and chemical labelling.’

According to scientists a fatal dose of pure nicotine is only one or two drops.

A police source in Oslo told the Daily Mail: ‘We still have to find out whether he did use the nicotine, and toxicology tests on the victims will give us the answer.

‘But his planning appears so meticulous that we fear he may have used the chemicals in this way. We would not put anything past this man.’

Police sources have revealed that Breivik owned a number of weapons – including a pump action shotgun, bolt rifle and his favourite gun – the Ruger Mini 14.

The chief surgeon at a hospital treating victims of Norway's camp massacre said the killer used the special bullets designed to disintegrate inside the body and cause maximum internal damage.

Dr Colin Poole, head of surgery at Ringriket Hospital in Honefoss north west of Oslo, said surgeons treating 16 gunshot victims have recovered no full bullets.

He said: 'These bullets more or less exploded inside the body. These bullets inflicted internal damage that's absolutely horrible.'

Ballistics experts say so-called dum-dum bullets also are lighter in weight and can be fired with greater accuracy over varying distances.

They commonly are used by air marshals on aeroplanes and hunters of small animals.

Poole, a surgeon for 26 years at the hospital, said the bullets were 'hyper-fragmentable' and produced confusing pictures on X-rays.

'It's caused us all kinds of extra problems in dealing with the wounds they cause, with very strange trajectories. The effect they cause inside the body is like a thousand pin pricks.

Norwegian massacre gunman was a right-wing extremist who hated Muslims

  • Suspect named by Norwegian media as Anders Behring Breivik
  • Police believe he is not connected to Islamist organisations
  • Claims he boasted online about having talks with English Defence League
  • 'Loner' lived with mother in a wealthy suburb and is well-educated
  • Reports say he attended same school as Norway's crown prince
  • Posted on Twitter: 'One person with a belief is equal to the force of 100,000 who have only interests'
  • Farm business gave him easy access to fertiliser - an ingredient used in bomb-making
  • Police say he is a 'very demanding suspect'

The man responsible for the massacre in Norway was a member of a Swedish nazi forum which encourages attacks on government buildings.

It was also revealed by local police that he had extreme right wing views who hated Muslims.

According to Swedish website Expo Anders Behring Breivik is a member of 'Nordisk' which has 22,000 members and focuses on political terrorism.

Officers also found a series of raving internet posts by the 32-year-old, who has been charged with two counts of terrorism after gunning down children on the island of Utoya and detonating a bomb in Oslo yesterday.

Media reports in Norway described Breivik as a 'loner', who lived with his mother in a wealthy suburb of west Oslo, was well-educated and enjoyed hunting.

Only a few days ago he set up a Twitter account and posted a single message: 'One person with a belief is equal to the force of 100,000 who have only interests'.

It is attributed to the English philosopher John Stuart Mill, whose concept of liberty justified the freedom of the individual in opposition to unlimited state control.

The account appears to have only been set up a few days ago.

On his Facebook profile, Breivik describes himself as a Christian and a conservative.

It also listed interests such as body-building and freemasonry.

Breivik is believed to have grown up in Oslo, and studied at the Oslo School of Management.

He later appears to have moved out of the city and established Breivik Geofarm, a company believed to be an organic farm.

It specialised in melons and root vegetables. There is speculation among the media in Norway that this may have allowed him easy access to fertiliser, an ingredient used in bomb-making.

Along with the farm, he also appears to own a flat in Oslo. Breivik had no military background except for ordinary national service and no criminal record.

It is thought that the 32-year-old is a former member of Labour's opposition youth party, Fremskrittspartiet.

Classmate Michael Tomola, who knew Breivik from the age of 13 to 16, said: 'He was rather introverted at school, even though he was a good student. I'm very surprised by this. I had a good impression, although he became very engaged in subjects he cared for. He got very extreme about things he cared for.'

According the website Atlantic.com, Breivik expressed extremist Islamophobic views on forums and criticised immigration policies.

He argued on a Swedish news website that the media were not critical enough about Islam and claimed that Geert Wilders' Party for Freedom in the Netherlands was the only 'true' party of conservatives.

He said that socialism was breaking down traditions, culture, national identity and other societal structures and that this in turn made society weak and confused.

He claimed to admire the Norwegian Second World War hero Max Manus, a highly decorated sailor who was an expert in sinking Nazi ships.

It has also been reported he boasted about conversations with unnamed members of the far-right English Defence League and the organisation Stop the Islamification of Europe.

He is said to have spoken to them about the success of provocative street actions leading to violence.

It is claimed he wrote on a blog two years ago: 'I have on some occasions had discussions with SIOE and EDL and recommended them to use certain strategies.

'The tactics of the EDL are now to 'lure' an overreaction from the Jihad Youth/Extreme-Marxists, something they have succeeded in doing several times already.'

Breivik's Facebook profile listed his favourite books as The Trial by Franz Kafka and Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell.

His favourite TV show was named as Dexter - a series about a Miami police forensics expert who moonlights as a serial killer of criminals whom he believes have escaped justice.

Police officer Roger Andresen said today: 'He is clear on the point that he wants to explain himself.'

Andersen said the suspect posted on websites with Christian fundamentalist tendencies. He did not describe the websites in any more details.

National police chief Sveinung Sponheim said he was talking to them and has admitted to firing weapons on the island.

It was not clear if he had confessed to anything else he is accused of. Police said he retained a lawyer, who did not want to be named

'He has had a dialogue with the police the whole time, but he's a very demanding suspect,' Sponheim said.

He also told public broadcaster NRK that the suspected gunman's Internet postings 'suggest that he has some political traits directed toward the right, and anti-Muslim views, but if that was a motivation for the actual act remains to be seen'.

Six foot tall and blond Breivik is reported to have arrived on the island of Utoya dressed as a policeman and opened fire after beckoning several young people over in his native Norwegian tongue.

Reports suggest he was also seen loitering around the site of the bomb blast in Oslo two hours before the island incident.

Police said later that the suspect had right-wing and anti-Muslim views, but the motive for the attacks was unclear.

The Norwegian daily Verdens Gang quoted a friend as saying he became a rightwing extremist in his late 20s. It said he expressed strong nationalistic views in online debates and had been a strong opponent of the idea that people of different cultural backgrounds can live alongside each other.

An official said the gunman used both automatic weapons and handguns, and that there was at least one unexploded device at the youth camp that a police bomb disposal team and military experts were working on disarming.

Some 92 are believed to have been killed - seven in Oslo and 84 on Utoya Island, 50 miles north of the capital.

Initially it was not known what were the motives of the gunman and architect of the car bomb - whether they or the single person had been radicalised and was part of a militant Muslim group waging Jihad or was trying to further a home-grown political cause.

But it now appears Breivik was behind both attacks, a fact that it took police hours to realise as the mayhem ensued.

The incidents come as social tensions with Norway heighten in recent months over the country’s perceived stance on Islamic issues.

Though a long-standing Nato member, Norway has not attracted many enemies because it has tended to stay out of international conflicts.

However, it has recently increased its military presence in Muslim countries such as Afghanistan or Libya, a move bound to anger fanatics.

There was anger among some of the 150,000 Muslims living in Norway when a newspaper reproduced the controversial Danish cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad in January last year.

Last night ‘Helpers of the Global Jihad’ posted a message on the internet claiming the bombing was ‘only the beginning’ of the retaliation over the cartoons.

But this has been dismissed by some commentators as a publicity stunt.

Other Scandinavian countries have faced radical Islamic attacks in the past.

Violence erupted in Denmark after a newspaper published a cartoon of the Prophet wearing a turban in the shape of a bomb in 2005.

And last December an Islamic suicide bomber, who was radicalised in Britain, set off a bomb in Stockholm.

Police would not speculate on who was responsible for the attack or whether international groups were involved.

But the country is also in the midst of grappling with a homegrown terror plot linked to al-Qaeda.

Two suspects are in jail awaiting charges.

Last week, a Norwegian prosecutor filed terror charges against an Iraqi-born cleric for threatening Norwegian politicians with death if he is deported from the Scandinavian country.

The indictment centred on statements that Mullah Krekar - the founder of the Kurdish Islamist group Ansar al-Islam - made to various news media, including American network NBC.

Jihadist groups have also made recent threats to Norway over plans to expel Mullah Krekar, the founder of the Kurdish Islamist group Ansar al-Islam.

Norway's support of NATO's mission in Libya also earned it enemies, Bob Ayers, a former U.S. intelligence officer, told AP.

'Norwegians are in Afghanistan. They're in Tripoli. They reprinted the cartoons,' he said.

Many intelligence analysts said they had never heard of Helpers of Global Jihad, which took initial credit. Ansar al-Islam also took credit on some jihadist web sites.

And Ayers said it appeared more than one person was involved.

Wrecked: The blast in Oslo was outside a government office

Wrecked: The blast in Oslo was outside a government office

Asked at a press conference in Tripoli about Libya's reaction to the events in Oslo, government spokesman Moussa Ibrahim said, 'We never support any acts of terrorism whatsoever.'

But he suggested NATO's policies could have prompted the attack, saying, 'NATO is planting terrorism in the hearts of many. This is unfortunate and sad.'

Authorities in Norway and other Scandinavian countries have focused on anti-terrorism tactics that frustrate countries like the U.S. that are more aggressive about making arrests.

Scandinavian authorities fight terrorism by disrupting plots, sometimes telling suspects they know what they're up to, and warning them of the consequences.

Terror convictions are also difficult to get because of scepticism in Scandinavian courts toward cases built on intent - as most terrorism trials are - and a demand for more evidence than in the U.S. and many other places.

Europe has been the target of numerous terror plots by Islamist militants.

The deadliest was the 2004 Madrid train bombings, when shrapnel-filled bombs exploded, killing 191 people and wounding about 1,800.

A year later, suicide bombers killed 52 rush-hour commuters in London aboard three subway trains and a bus.

And in 2006, U.S. and British intelligence officials thwarted one of the largest plots yet - a plan to explode nearly a dozen trans-Atlantic airliners.

In October, the U.S. State Department advised American citizens living or travelling in Europe to take more precautions following reports that terrorists may be plotting attacks on a European city.

Some countries went on heightened alert after the May 2 killing of Osama bin Laden.

Intelligence analysts said they doubted the attack was linked to bin Laden's death.

'Al-Qaida would have targeted something closer to U.S. interests if it was related to bin Laden,' Ayers said.

What changed Anders Behring Breivik from a lonely mummy’s boy into a maniac mass killer with a hatred of immigrants?

His early life was undoubtedly scarred by the break-up of his parents’ marriage when he was aged just one.

Then, at the age of 15, he lost contact with his father, who was apparently unimpressed by his ‘graffiti phase’ – he was caught spraying messages on walls.

Perhaps most tellingly in his ‘manifesto’, published online as he launched his attacks on Friday, he says that as a teenager his best friend was a Pakistani immigrant who loathed Norway.

He says he hung out with Pakistani gangs but claimed to have been beaten up by them eight times, once suffering a broken nose.

At 16, he says, he broke with his friend and decided to concentrate on school. Later, he clearly felt immigration was ruining his country.

Breivik also makes extraordinary claims about alleged promiscuity by his mother Wenche, a nurse, and other members of his family, together with details of sexually transmitted diseases he claims they contracted.

Then there is the resentment he feels at being ‘feminised’ by multiculturalism, telling how he was forced in his early youth to complete mandatory knitting and sewing courses which were ‘implemented as a result of Marxist revolution.’

Such turbulent events during his formative years might seem, at first glance, to provide an insight into his tormented mind. But is that enough to explain the monster he became?

More...

Experts say Breivik’s motivation for committing mass murder is far more complex – and disturbing – than merely a reaction to personal events in his life.

Narcissistic, paranoid and obsessive, he was in all likelihood seeking fame to cover up the pathetic existence he appears to have led during the nine years he worked on his manifesto.

Yesterday David Wilson, professor of criminology at Birmingham City University, said: ‘When he killed those kids he imagined he was involved in some kind of righteous slaughter, that he was being channelled by some greater purpose to do what he did.

‘With spree killers, which is what he is as opposed to a serial killer, their motivation is a mixture of the personal and the political. We know what the political part was in his case and by doing what he did he was trying to take out the next generation of the ruling party who might get into power.

‘But what’s the personal? Everything he did and wrote appears to be about self-aggrandisement. He needed to be in control and in charge. We know tit-bits of his background and there’s a sense of narcissism about him.’

Indeed, so vain was blond, blue-eyed Breivik that in his manifesto he even described how commanders of his Knights Templar terror group prepare themselves for after capture by deleting ‘unfortunate photos from the past’ in case the police leak the ‘retarded looking’ ones.

Comparison: So vain was Breivik that he even compared himself to the commanders of the Knights Templar in his manifesto

Comparison: So vain was Breivik that he even compared himself to the commanders of the Knights Templar in his manifesto

Also, he adds, they should visit a solarium and ‘a male salon if possible and apply light make-up’.

‘Yes, I know – this might sound repulsive to big badass warriors like us,’ he wrote, ‘but we must look our best for the shoot.’

Professor Wilson said it was unlikely, however, that Breivik has an underlying mental health problem.

‘He did not hear voices, he did not see visions telling him to rid Norwegian society of these people,’ he said.

‘He has thought about what he was going to do quite deeply and carefully. Telescoping back to his childhood is not necessarily the answer to explaining what drove him to do what he did.’

Dr Theodore Dalrymple, who writes psychiatric assessments of murderers in criminal cases and is the author of the book ‘Spoilt Rotten: the toxic cult of sentimentality’, agrees that it is likely Breivik would not be deemed legally insane in a court in England.

‘The length of time he spent writing the manifesto suggests a chronic personality disorder rather than an acute psychiatric disorder,’ he said. ‘He is obviously of above average intelligence, but perhaps not as intelligent as he would like to be.’

Tellingly perhaps, rather than going to university Breivik says he completed his higher education ‘informally’, cobbling together his own curriculum to study ‘entrepreneurial activity’. He claimed this was the equivalent of two degrees and says he carried out 16,000 hours of study.

‘I think he wanted to be important, famous,’ said Dr Dalrymple. ‘I think he is also a man whose reach probably exceeds his grasp. He would have like to have been something much more than he actually was and he feels a great deal of resentment as a result.’

Cut off: Breivik, 32, is being held at Ila prison, a former Nazi concentration camp, where is not allowed access to TV, newspapers, radio or mail

Anders Breivik is being held at Ila prison, a former Nazi concentration camp, but could be moved to another maximum security jail.

One possible facility overlooks the Tyrifjorden waters and is close to Utoya Island where he launched his attack.

Last night, the killer was being kept in isolation and was on 'suicide watch'.

A full evaluation of his mental state is likely to take up to three months, but prison sources have said he may not wish to cooperate or answer questions.

Ila was originally a women's prison called Grini before the German invasion of Norway during World War Two saw it become a concentration camp run by the Gestapo from 1940.

Detainees included a raft of Norwegian political prisoners and the camp was enlarged as more people arrived, before being shipped to Dachau or Auschwitz.

In 1942 five members of the First Airborne Division were captured after their glider crashed in bad weather on a failed 'Operation Freshman' mission to bomb a chemical plant.

The British survivors were taken to Grini and later - on the express orders of Adolf Hitler - they were marched into nearby woods, blindfolded and shot one after another in the back of the head.

Breivik has been banned from receiving post, reading newspapers, watching TV or listening to the radio.

He is only allowed to see a priest, doctors or his lawyer.

In his manifesto, Breivik pledged to escape from any prison holding him and said he had formulated a 'second bonus mission' which would see him assassinate 'up to five traitors' once he had escaped.

He claimed he had intelligence on his later targets so he could carry out his operation 'in a timely and professional manner'.

His plan said he had already buried weapons and equipment near to the prisons he was most likely to be held at.

He would then hijack a vehicle from a civilian and 'initiate' his mission. Suspect: Anders Breivik is escorted from court after pleading not guilty to the mass killings at Utoya Island and being responsible for the bomb blast in Oslo

 

OSLO, Norway — The man in the police uniform shouted for the campers to come closer. When they did, he killed them.

The gunman who killed at least 68 people at an island youth camp northwest of Oslo used his disguise to lure in his victims, then shot them twice to make sure they were dead, survivors said in the village of Sundvollen, where they were taken after the massacre.

“I saw many dead people,” said 15-year old Elise, whose father, Vidar Myhre, didn’t want her to disclose her last name. She was just feet away from the gunman when he opened fire in the camp on Utoya island.

Confessed terrorist Anders Behring Breivik hoped to trigger a nationalist revolution in Norway. But his double act of mass murder and destruction seems to have stirred only dignified defiance in this wealthy, idealistic nation renowned for its commitment to peace.

Norway’s royal family and prime minister led the nation in mourning, visiting grieving relatives of the scores of youth gunned down at an island retreat, as the shell-shocked Nordic nation was gripped by reports that the gunman may not have acted alone.

The Norwegian man suspected in a bombing and shooting spree that killed at least 76 people bought six tons of fertilizer before the massacre, the supplier said Saturday as police investigated witness accounts of a second shooter.
The shooting spree began just hours after a massive explosion that ripped through an Oslo high-rise building housing the prime minister’s office.

The capital’s heart remains shattered and cordoned off following Friday’s car-bomb blast and shooting spree on a nearby island. Communities up and down this sparsely populated land have yet to bury their loved ones.
