OSLO (Reuters) - A gunman dressed in police uniform opened fire at a youth camp of Norway's ruling political party on Friday, killing at least 80 people, hours after a bomb killed seven in the government district in the capital Oslo.

One of the things that always sticks in my head about the Oklahoma bombing was that Timothy McVeighs wife was cebuana.

:omg: ... Oslo was where my late, first wife and me spent our honeymoon a week before Christmas 1967! Or rather :rolleyes: ... it was our port of destination on a short mini-cruise sailing from Newcastle's Tyne Commission Quay ... so we were only actually in the Norwegian Capital for approximately one-and-a-half days in total. But from what we saw of it, it gave the impression of being a nice, peaceful [smallish] city. Who'd ever have thought that all those decades later, it'd be the focus for a horrific massacre on such a scale! :NoNo:

Indeed it was MY first - and my late wife's ONLY - trip abroad. So it has fond memories for me. :rolleyes: And now ... looking at the photograph of the perpetrator of this terrible carnage, :grosyeux: I can scarcely believe that such a handsome, fresh-faced, clean-cut young man could be responsible for wreaking such havoc! :cwm24:
