Fatal Oslo bombing rocks government HQ

[Flipmo]

it sounds crazy....but lesser things have started revolutions and wars in the past...

wasn't WW1 started by the assassination of a duke, or something?

Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria.

While his death is referred to as the spark which started WW1 - there was much tension between the Imperial powers beforehand, and a war was just around the corner - the web of alliances (Triple Entente, Triple Alliance and links between the Balkans & Russia) just turned it into something greater, but Austria (and Germany for ulterior motives) was just itching to wage war against Serbia, otherwise they wouldn't have given such a bullshit ultimatum during the July Crisis.

Yupp, Rio Ferdinand

LOL. Archduke Franz Ferdinand and the Black Hand's assassination of him.

I always said female UPS drivers looked like chocolate-covered lesbians.

lmao. Maybe wrong time to laugh, but I couldn't help it.

Already some conspiracy theories emerging from this bombing/shooting.

One is that the Mossad is behind it, and the shooter was just a pawn.
Another one is that Islamic theorist groups were behind it.

/smh

Does it really matter which religion was responsible anyway.

Also... Is it normal for Teenagers to belong to political parties at such a young age? It reminds me of the Hitler Youth.

It could be the mossad. You see the kids were at a Labor camp and they mistook it for a Labour camp

It might be a bit extreme to compare them to the Hitler Youth. But it is a brainwashing. Who really understands politics and has decided on their political viewpoint at such a young age? Should I compare it to church camp? When I was a teenager you wouldn't have caught me camping, or caring about politics.

The killing was so detached though (From the witness accounts). Like he was playing a computer game. And to young people who had yet to live.

^No no, the camp wasn't about brainwashing kids into thinking along Labour Party lines. Certainly, it did have aspects of that because politicians from the Labour Party held talks. More so though, It's a decades-old tradition where kids go learn the ways of democracy, political engagement, etc. It's important for kids to have a mindset that their actions can influence politics and not become cynics at such a young age as so many of us become. In the US, the 18-26 demographic barely votes. They just don't seem to care. Camps such as the one in Norway work to change that.

If you cared about politics as a teenager, maybe you'd be less inclined to think along conspiracy theory lines.

Maybe they don't vote because it's pointless. The same TNCs and lobbyists run the show who ever the figure head is.

I think that guy couldn't have been alone to plan it all. Whether they'll find these cells or not, only time will tell.

RIP to all the victims of such a tragedy. Innocents don't deserve to die.
