7 people died when a car bomb exploded right outside the government office building yesterday in Oslo, and 85 young people died when a man dressed as a police opened fire on a youth summer camp on the island of Otuya. He had an automatic weapon. A man named Anders Behring Breivik has been arrested.

Surprisingly, it doesn’t appear to be a case of islamic terrorism: Breivik is a conservative christian (at least that’s what he calls himself), freemason and holds nationalistic views. Whether he was involved in the bombing as well as the shootings we don’t know yet. He may not have been alone.
