Oslo Explosion -Norway

Postby Mikiko » Fri Jul 22, 2011 7:38 pm

Το γραφείο του Νορβηγού πρωθυπουργού και το υπουργείο Πετρελαίου βρίσκονται ανάμεσα στα κτήρια που υπέστησαν ζημιές από την ισχυρή έκρηξη που συγκλόνισε το κέντρο του Όσλο. Η νορβηγική τηλεόραση κάνει λόγο για τουλάχιστον ένα νεκρό και το λιγότερο οκτώ τραυματίες.

Haven't our foreign minister sent samples of the container abroad for analysis ? Did by any chance send some to Oslo ? ?

Are they going to link this to Greece like they did Cyprus?

Will Norway need austerity measures?
Will Norway become the next financial crisis point?
Will the EU need to bail out Norway?

Apparently there was a shooting as well. 17 people lost their lives.
Please disregard the above post.
It was posted before any casualties were confirmed. (or more accurately known to me)

It seems is not an Islamic-related terrorist attack as originally thought.
After the shooting, police apprehended a Norwegian man, according to police and Justice Minister Knut Storberget. The acting chief of police, Sveinung Sponheim, said the suspect had been also seen in Oslo before the explosions there.

Looking like a right wing, lone wolf Christian nutter is responsible .

A real tragedy for this tolerant and peaceful nation
