What do you want to bet this is the work of radical Episcopalians?

Well... there are two main possibilities... some group from the Arab world or the Norwegian radical right (a radical right that make the GOP look like a bunch of ******s). My personal bet is that it is from the Arab world but we shall see.

Quite the detective work there Sherlock.
 
Considering the proximity to government offices (the PM's office, parliament, the oil ministry) I don't think this is "Islamic terrorism". Could be wrong, but seems more directly politically motivated.

Another thing to consider is the attack on the island with the youth centre... hardly a typical "Islamic terror" target, and very political since it was the left that was holding a meeting there.

Now if they are connected we dont know yet, but they have arrested "someone" on the island but sadly there are deaths.

That's what I thought too... If it were terrorism, they'd try to kill a massive amount of people and strike a public area. Seems they were looking to kill specific people. I am glad their PM is ok though. That would have been a national tragedy. I think there is a lot going on in their politics that we don't know about.
 
It's important to not jump to conclusions until we know for sure who is behind it.

Although, I will admit it's interesting to watch people immediately blame Arabs.

You mean this journalist who blogged this an hour before the OP?

Update at 10:14 a.m. ET: Although the source of the blast is unclear, Al-Jazeera TV notes that Norwegian prosecutors on Tuesday filed a terrorism charge against Mullah Krekar, founder of the Kurdish Islamist group Ansar al-Islam. Mullah Krekar is accused of threatening a former minister, Erna Solberg, with death, Al-Jazeera says.
 
Time for the Salvador Model in Norway.
 
A male is definitely to blame... They are so violent and commit more crimes, rapes, and murders than anybody else in the world.
 
I agree we should not jump to conclussons. However I will say that I highly doubt that these acts of terrorism where commited by Islamic extremist. Afterall Islam is a religion of peace. Holy-war or jihad against infidels is a myth perpetrated by evil right wingers in an attempt to conjure up feelings of distrust and hatred towards muslims. I am also taking bids on the Brooklyn Bridge.

You mean you think it was men, because Muslim women aren't violent.

I have no idea who did this. Does it matter if it was men or women? Could it have been one of the many misunderstanders of Islam. Could it have been evil heartless devil worshiping right wingers? I say we wait to find out it was jihadist before we blame jihadist.

I don't follow. "Islamic terrorism" certainly has a history of attacking government offices and political assassination plots.

It looks like it was a conservative man at that. There was a shooting attack on a Labor Party youth camp soon afterwards. Four kids dead.

Update: An eyewitness claims 20 -25 bodies!

Well, Conservative means it's a white man... White men are the worst of all men because they are responsible for slavery, the nazi party, and racial genocide, but I wouldn't jump to conclusions just yet. He could be racially mixed or something. Who knows. The jury is still out.
