A terrorist attack has left at least seven dead in Oslo and unconfirmed more at a youth camp in nearby Utoya, Norway. A car bomb exploded in the capital near government buildings housing the Prime Minister's office and the oil ministry. "Helpers of the Global Jihad" has claimed responsibility for the attack.
Police fear that there may also be bombs at the youth camp in Utoya where a gunman opened fire on people. In the chaos, there were reports of people swimming away from the island on which the attack occurred.
There are reports that people are trapped from the blast in Oslo, and confusion abounded as to whether one or two blasts had occurred.
Bleeding victims were being treated at the scene and broken glass, smoke, and twisted metal was scattered everywhere near the explosion.
In this post-9/11 world, such an incident is unsurprising given past attacks in Mumbai, Spain, New York, London, Frankfurt, Moscow, Los Angeles, and elsewhere. The Islamic radicals continue their bloody campaign while the west fights with only a semi-serious determination to wipe out and defeat Islamists.

93 people were killed this day, mainly kids and young people. The Evil was not performed by any islamic organization of any kind, but by a conservative right wing norwegian, sharing a lot of your views. Thats why I personally consider the likes of you responsible for this action. These anti islamic utterings generates so much hate and creates further conflict. It's not the islam as an religion that is to blame, but it is people like you! And this goes for all recent terrorist attacks. Blood is on your hands
Mr.August, your insinuation that "conservatives" like myself have blood on our hands is repulsive. This act was not done by a "conservative", it was done by an evil individual with radical views.
Evil is evil is evil, regardless of where it comes from or carries it out. I have never endorsed violence against civilians in any manner of speaking on this site or otherwise. My posting today clearly states that Islamic radicals were not involved, but there was an Islamic group who took responsibility for this act initially.
Furthermore, the fact that an anti-immigration nut-job carried out this attack has nothing to do with the clear and present danger that still is posed by Islamic fundamentalism.
Breivik appears to be an atheist based on the novels he read his mentor Ted Kaczynski, the Unabomber.
Mr.August, you have your own hate to deal with. I, personally, do not hold hate in my heart for any human being regardless of their color, race, creed, or orientation.
Good rebutal, Strong.
August is an idiot, plain and simple.
