View Full Version : Norway Timone 07-22-2011, 04:37 PM Oslo Norway attacks: Blast hits government buildings; shooter opens fire at Labour youth camp (http://news.blogs.cnn.com/2011/07/22/blast-rips-through-norways-capital-injuries-reported/?hpt=hp_t1) Glenn 07-22-2011, 04:54 PM That really sucks. I'll admit that my initial reaction was that a death metal band was behind this. Timone 07-22-2011, 04:57 PM No church burnings have been reported yet. Tahoe 07-22-2011, 07:07 PM Remember Obama sez we can't say 'terrorism' anymore, its 'man made disasters' What a douche. Glenn 07-22-2011, 07:09 PM They have a 32 year-old suspect in custody. Timone 07-22-2011, 07:11 PM Remember Obama sez we can't say 'terrorism' anymore, its 'man made disasters' What a douche. Obsessed. Tahoe 07-22-2011, 07:13 PM Dude, when he is your dumb ass Prez, his stupidity is hard to ignore. Timone 07-22-2011, 07:49 PM Sky sources. #Oslo suspect named as Anders Behring Breivik. Doesn't appear to be linked to "Islamist terror," either. Glenn 07-22-2011, 07:54 PM ^ small sample size Timone 07-22-2011, 07:57 PM Am I supposed to give credit to the chick that tweeted it? Glenn 07-22-2011, 10:00 PM Death toll now at 80. They think the guy acted alone. UxKa 07-22-2011, 10:08 PM Dude, when he is your dumb ass Prez, his stupidity is hard to ignore. dood... this is about Norway. You're really reaching here to talk shit about Prez. UxKa 07-22-2011, 10:08 PM Can I say :we: because I'm of Norwegian descent? Timone 07-22-2011, 10:09 PM Yes. Tahoe 07-22-2011, 10:12 PM dood... this is about Norway. You're really reaching here to talk shit about Prez. I know, but dudes stupidity is world wide. Uncle Mxy 07-23-2011, 02:48 AM Remember Obama sez we can't say 'terrorism' anymore, its 'man made disasters' What a douche. Hmmm... Obama certainly called it "terror" in speaking about it earlier: And it's a reminder that the entire international community has a stake in preventing this kind of terror from occurring. And so we have to work cooperatively together both on intelligence and in terms of prevention of these kinds of horrible attacks. But I think Tahoe backdoored his way into something interesting (well, interesting to me). When we in the U.S. think of terrorISTS, we're prone to thinking in terms of foreign Islamics with funny names and bombs strapped to them. We don't think of some Christian white boy bombing Oklahoma City. Oslo is shaping up to be an Oklahoma City-like event. I'm wondering to what extent the folks in Norway will consider this nutjob to be a terrorIST, as distinct from someone who committed a horrible act. Timone 07-23-2011, 04:47 PM Apparently, the dude posted this video before going on the attack: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQOfH8Dj1mw geerussell 07-23-2011, 05:15 PM When we in the U.S. think of terrorISTS, we're prone to thinking in terms of foreign Islamics with funny names and bombs strapped to them. We don't think of some Christian white boy bombing Oklahoma City. Oslo is shaping up to be an Oklahoma City-like event. I'm wondering to what extent the folks in Norway will consider this nutjob to be a terrorIST, as distinct from someone who committed a horrible act. The answer will show in the degree to which they behave as though terrorIZED... as we have, for ten years. Tahoe 07-23-2011, 07:32 PM Hmmm...

If you missed the Obama Admin NOT calling terrorism terrorism, but man made disasters, than I can't help ya. Seriously, Y'all need stop watching MSNBC as your source for news. When the election got closer, terrorism crept back into the admin's volcab. Uncle Mxy 07-23-2011, 10:36 PM I don't watch much TV news -- reading is fundamental. I didn't miss what you're talking about. But that's two years old, and not really news at this point. Checking today's news, I'm glad that the Norwegians are calling this guy a terrorist. We were much less prone to using that term for McVeigh, the Unabomber, etc. Timone 07-23-2011, 10:51 PM http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/c/c4/Anders_Behring_Breivik.jpg |
