You've got to love the Norwegian approach to terror
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-14591013
<snip>

Family members and friends of Norwegians killed by a gunman last month have been visiting Utoeya island, the scene of the massacre.

The visit came as police were granted a request to keep the man who admitted to the killings, Anders Behring Breivik, in solitary confinement, as they continue their investigation.

Sunday will mark the end of a month of mourning for the 77 people who died.

A national memorial service will be held at an Oslo arena.

Some 1,500 survivors, relatives and close friends of the victims were expected to visit Utoeya island, where 69 people were gunned down, on Friday and Saturday.

3. Non, mon ami. The US Govt reacted predictably belligerently and with malice aforethought.

"Iraq" was an early goal, as was the entire totalitarian TSA.

5. You mean they're not going to invade & drop bombs on a country that had nothing to do with it?
Maybe they would if their military took up a third of their economy.
