Utoeya Massacre: Norway a Nation in Mourning

A right-wing zealot Andres Behring Breivik confessed to late Friday's twin attacks which have left around 94 people dead in Norway.

The twin attacks involved a shooting spree at the Utoeya Island and a car bomb in Oslo by the zealot who saw his attack as "atrocious, but necessary" to defeat liberal immigration policies and the spread of Islam", Reuters reported.

Breivik dressed as a policeman went on a 90-minute shooting rampage at a summer camp in Utoeya killing about 86 Labour supporters.

Recent reports have lowered the death count to 76.

Prior to committing the horrendous act Breivik had posted a 1,500 page manifesto stating his beliefs.

And while the world has been shocked by the act Norway continues to mourn its victims.
