It’s the world’s worst spree killing. Norway Massacre: The Killer’s Mind examines the terrible events of that day.
In 90 minutes of madness, 32-year-old Anders Behring Breivik killed 69 young people.
The film pieces together Breivik’s day of terror hour by hour, from the time of the bomb he set off in Oslo, to the cold blooded shooting of defenceless youngsters on the remote island beauty spot of Utøya.
Who is this man, and what made him act?
This film examines the criminal mind and motives of one of the world’s worst killers, offering psychological analysis, as the day of the massacre unfolds.
We examine his motives, analyse his likely psychological journey through the planning stages and over the course of the day itself and ask what drove him to plan and carry out this massacre. Was he a terrorist as he claimed, a madman, or was he indeed both?
The film will have first-hand accounts from eyewitnesses and survivors who have not spoken on camera before. Including:
-taxi driver Arild Tangen who was the last man to speak to Breivik before his attack;
-survivor Adrian Pracon who was shot in the shoulder and tried to swim away from the island. He pleaded with Breivik to spare him;
-Bjørn Kasper Ilaug who rescued some of the kids whilst the shooting was happening by pulling bodies on to his boat;
-and Brede Joherraaten – Camp owner, was there and recovered bodies and saved swimmers.
The killer’s action are analysed by a host of experts, including: renowned criminologist Professor David Wilson; Katherine Newman from Princeton university who is one of world’s the top experts on spree shootings; Matthew Goodman, the leading authority on British and European right wing terror groups; and terror and weapons expert Charles Shoebridge.
And foremost, above all, is the memory of those who died. What were the warning signs? What could have been done? By investigating this appalling crime, there is the hope that an atrocity like this can never happen again.
If freemasonry is involved you can’t rule out MK ultra child abuse that creates a split personality to create an “alter ego” sometims the alter is for sex, sometims it’s for violence and killing. Kazynski was an MK ritalin experiment that made him a child genius and graduate college very young. Different progrms for different products. Would not be surprised if Breviks father was a freemason and was given a lot of money to allow his son to be an MK.
lol
Does anyone have a link to a doco that works? This one has been deleted
Would all of you please try to refrain from saying “retard” and “mental retardation at birth” as supposedly causes for actions of people who kill others. People who are born developmentally disabled are no more likely to kill someone than anyone else is, in fact, I suspect they are less likely.
As to this man, these people did nothing to him. He thought he was acting out his convoluted and crazy political ideas when he murdered these children. And they were children even if they were in their teens! Few, if any of you, would have the same positive reaction towards him if it had been your son or your daughter he shot.
When you think and write in the Racist way someone of you are doing, you risk ironically what you value most-your own safety and freedom! At any time, someone could fixate on you and decide that you represented what was wrong with the world and decide to kill you. If given a choice by the gunman, I doubt you would say you really are responsible for the world’s problems however. The tears of your mother, Muslin or Christian or Atheist or whatever, would flood the land just the same and would be just as bitter and just as sad.
They weren’t children, they were all teenagers and older.
Besides all his terrible actions, I believe it is a shame he plagiarized Kaczynski’s manifesto. Although I condemn Kaczynski’s actions as well, I believe his thoughts as reflected in his manifesto reflect truth.
well is the true muslim people have brought a lot of shitty stupid ideas to others nations and that have cost a lot of trouble and till causing problems like those women that u can only see their eyes fuck that is SCARY to anybody!! they should never have left their place of origen..
they can’t leave the fucking bed sheat at home.. ghost people that’s what they look like to me.
how sad that innocent people had to died just because of one crazy maniac!! LOOSER…
My milkshake brings all the boys to the yawrd….. and there like…..Its better than yawls…… Damb right …its better than yours, i can teach you…..But i have to charge……..
Mass murders like breivik need to systematically have their hands amputed up to the arm and be put into a prison for life so they could be tortured until their last day of life.
You can certainly see your enthusiasm in the paintings you write. The world hopes for more passionate writers such as you who aren’t afraid to say how they believe. At all times follow your heart.
Hey Polkadot,
For the sake of fairness, it would be interesting if you made a summary of the deaths that the catholic religion has brought upon humanity since its inception, it would be an interesting exercise for you.
communism have killed over 94 360 000 people…
what this stupid and very mad person did was wrong, period.
the result is; people who say maybe he was right, besause of the because are also dum and stup.this mother fucker deserve to bbe hang, and burn, i will not try to understand the reasons of what he was doing nthis, because I am just simply against thoses kind of very dangerous persons of whatever they coming from,
Speaking as a norwegian Anders Breivik does not represent even 0,000,001% of all norwegians. He is just a monster society creates from time to time, mental retardation at birth, abuse during childhood, brainwashing, isolation, depression or you name it will produce people sick in the head from time to time. Its statistically inevitable, and impossible to prevent.
His viewes symbolises nothing, his ideology ridiculous. his massacre is only a tribute to himself and I hope he will burn for eternity in hell for it and suffer the rest of his mortal life for it in prison or worse.
I agree with my prime minister Jens Stoltenberg who is worker party that Breivik is neither right wing or left wing, he is just evil.
Breivik admired Pol Pot, Stalin, Hitler and Mao. People say Breivik is right wing, but he hated USA and Hates the Tea Party of the USA.
Political interest group will use breivik for their own agendas, both left and right wing.
For me the most important is justice be done, let him pay, institute harsh punishment and God will finally send him to hell.
God bless the innocent of all mankind
omg, he is so beautiful
xD
Nothing about this story makes sense. Dahmer was a sick puppy who liked having sex with dead people, so he killed them first. That is madness, but at least it has a reason to it. This is beyond madness. Narcissism and political aims do not explain this. There is more to this story than is being told in this documentary. Is it mind control? I don’t know. But this movie just annoyed me because it explained nothing.
It annoyed you because it didn’t feed into your conspiratorial thinking.
Is mind control plausible? No, because the mind is too complicated to be able to control. You are just asking questions where there is no need to.
wow, imagine if you went there to go camping with the aide of psychadelics and that shit went down…fuuuuuuuuck!
It will be the biggest summer camp ever in Utøya 2012

I have been indoctrinated with democracy and tolerance as much as Muslims are indoctrinated with Islam. My knee-jerk reaction was to condemn Breivik, but after a few days of intense thinking I realized that Breivik fired the first shots in the inexorable civil war between Europeans and Muslim invaders. It is too late to save European democracy and tolerance, but we can save our passion for innovation, capacity for self-criticism, and gender equality, if we expel the Muslim invaders.
Several comments have now been removed after being reported. This was due to the fact they were condoning murderous actions and spreading hate. These type of comments will NOT be tolerated!
I am a firm believer in freedom of speech, but with this freedom comes responsibility. Use it to intelligently get your point across rather than just being blatantly hateful towards others.
Thank you.
You either believe in freedom of speech or censorship. There is no believing in both.
I do not believe in freedom of speech.
Any info about true nature of Islam is “spreading hate” according to the censor.

you do realise the hypocrisy in your statements right? you are basically saying Muslims are the ones killing people and doing all the evil things in the world? but yet you support the actions of Breivik in killing innocent children? what does that say about you and your believes?
“Any info about true nature of Islam is “spreading hate” according to the censor.” – How can you say what you where writing is the true nature of Islam? It was just straight up ignorance and bigotry.
I’m not Islamic nor am I a big believer in any religion, but i am not an atheist. In my opinion currently any earthbound religions are inherently flawed as they have been created by humans and the fact of the matter is we simply cant even begin to comprehend the infinite complexity of our universe and its workings but to be hateful towards anyone or their beliefs is just ignorant, especially when you are condoning the deaths of innocent people.
Let people believe in what they want to believe in and live your own life.

I have spend about 3000 hours studying Islam, so you cannot accuse me of ignorance. I have very good reasons to hate Islam, communism, and fascism. Professor Bernard Lewis is the most respected American expert on the Middle East. On March 7, 2007, Lewis delivered a lecture (“Islam and Europe”) at the American Enterprise Institute’s Annual Dinner. He said that Muslim migration to Europe is a third phase of the 14 centuries long jihad. Nelson Mandela and Yasser Arafat
were terrorists, and yet they received the Nobel Peace Prize. If Breivik
helps stop the Muslim invasion of Europe, he may get the same prize. Breivik’s terror was a desperate act triggered by total prohibition on debate about Islam in the European media. I do not support Breivik’s terror. I merely say that he fired the first shots in the inexorable civil war between Europeans and Muslim invaders. Many Internet posters call Breivik a hero. I tried to chastise these posters, but I could not find good arguments against them. WE DESPERATELY NEED PUBLIC DEBATE ABOUT ISLAM BECAUSE IT IS THE ONLY WAY TO PREVENT THE CIVIL WAR.”Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.” – John F. KennedyGood moderator may prohibit opinions, but when he prohibits facts he becomes a censor.
You should be disgusted with yourselves for condoning murder! What has happened in your lives that has made you such hateful, racist and poisonous people? How can you not understand that everyone on this planet was born equal and no one has less of a right to live than anyone else?

Breivik killed 77 people – a drop in a bucket compared with about 300 million people killed by Islam.

Africa
Thomas Sowell [Thomas Sowell, Race and Culture, BasicBooks, 1994, p. 188] estimates that 11 million slaves were shipped across the Atlantic and 14 million were sent to the Islamic nations of North Africa and the Middle East. For every slave captured many others died. Estimates of this collateral damage vary. The renowned missionary David Livingstone estimated that for every slave who reached a plantation, five others were killed in the initial raid or died of illness and privation on the forced march.[Woman’s Presbyterian Board of Missions, David Livingstone, p. 62, 1888] Those who were left behind were the very young, the weak, the sick and the old. These soon died since the main providers had been killed or enslaved. So, for 25 million slaves delivered to the market, we have an estimated death of about 120 million people. Islam ran the wholesale slave trade in Africa.
120 million Africans

Christians
The number of Christians martyred by Islam is 9 million [David B. Barrett, Todd M. Johnson, World Christian Trends AD 30-AD 2200, William Carey Library, 2001, p. 230, table 4-10] . A rough estimate by Raphael Moore in History of Asia Minor is that another 50 million died in wars by jihad. So counting the million African Christians killed in the 20th century we have:
60 million Christians
____________________________
Hindus
Koenard Elst in Negationism in India gives an estimate of 80 million Hindus killed in the total jihad against India. [Koenard Elst, Negationism in India, Voice of India, New Delhi, 2002, pg. 34.] The country of India today is only half the size of ancient India, due to jihad. The mountains near India are called the Hindu Kush, meaning the “funeral pyre of the Hindus.”
80 million Hindus

Buddhists
Buddhists do not keep up with the history of war. Keep in mind that in jihad only Christians and Jews were allowed to survive as dhimmis (servants to Islam); everyone else had to convert or die. Jihad killed the Buddhists in Turkey, Afghanistan, along the Silk Route, and in India. The total is roughly 10 million. [David B. Barrett, Todd M. Johnson, World Christian Trends AD 30-AD 2200, William Carey Library, 2001, p. 230, table 4-1.]
10 million Buddhists

On the basis of a 14th-century account by the Genoese Gabriele de’Mussi, the Black Death is widely believed to have reached Europe from the Crimea as the result of a [Muslim] biological warfare attack [at the 1346 siege of Caffa]. The Black Death is estimated to have killed 30% to 60% of Europe’s population [about 30 million].

The total number of people exterminated by Muslims is about 300 million. Communists exterminated about 100 million people. German Nazis exterminated about 50 million people.
Disgusting!, and anybody who agrees with what he’s done should also burn in hell!, you dont claim to be “cleansing the world of Muslims” and then go shooting anybody you see, be they Muslim, Christian jewish or anything else!, the guy is a murderer, all he did was hide behind political ande religious views. the guys a fucking coward, a waster who done nothing with his life, i hope he burns
Just as Enoch Powell has been proved right in light of the London riots, Anders will be proved right when Europe ultimately becomes fully Islamified.
I completely understand his motivation. It’s a shame that the left-wing is so determined to destroy Europe via multiculturalism.
I’d rather be Muslim then a Nazi.
Are you serious???? Oh dear, no wonder there is war in the world! How can you even say things like that! I’m a Norweigan, and beeing a citizen in such a little country means that we were all affected of the 22nd of July. Multiculturalism is a very broad term used in too many situations and by too many people so that it has lost its full meaning. It is the same with “socialism” – the Scandinavian countries are sosicalist countries, but so are China, still they have VERY different perspectives of what it is. You should really seek help if you think Breivik’s motives were understandable. Everyone should have the right to speak up, but killing innocent people is in no way acceptable! I would suggest to you that you go out there in the world, so that you can experience real evil, real suffering and real injustice- then maybe you can feel what all Norweigans felt that day: a big loss, and a deep sorrow. Maybe you can understand the same thing we understood: that we have to stick together, have to accept different cultures, meanings, skincolours or what not – as long as we meet each other on the middle way. If you think that the left-wing are “determined on destroying Europe with multiculturalism” then it is time that you start studying politics before you go out with such statements. Not to forget: you should take into consideration all the people that is left with their life in ruins.
I agree with you, shooting kids was definitely the right thing to do, better bomb more brown people well were at it
you to are complete retards

Nelson Mandela and Yasser Arafat were terrorists, and yet they received Nobel Peace Prize. If Breivik helps stop the Muslim invasion of Europe, he may get the same prize.
What I don’t get is how this guy put this much thought into his actions, but not any thought into the consequences. He martyred a bunch of his enemies, strengthening their cause with the sympathy of everyone who is horrified by murder and killing. That doesn’t make any sense. He’s either a homicidal nutcase with a confabulated motive, or a paid soldier-of-fortune terrorist with a fabricated motive. Why else would this “manifesto” be plagiarized?
If there is one thing that is clear to me is why he chose this horrendous path.He figured that there is no such thing as bad publicity. As long as you’re in the public eye you’re gonna have people that are pro and people against you. He is making it possible for scum like him to be connected and be inspired and head after the same goal. He does’t care about how many people are appalled by his actions and are therefor against him. He made that clear when he started this hell.
Now there is also one thing that is for sure. You can’t kill 77 people with a machine gun and have it excused as political crap. The true reason this all happened is not because of some political views this killer might have (which is only a reason to kill, but simply because he is a natural, animalistic killer.

Why are most Western governments and media outlets afraid to criticize Islam? Violence. It works. All Muslim countries became Muslim because they were terrorized by Muslims. Every day Muslim mobs attack non-Muslims living in Muslim countries.

Islam, like cancer, has the sole purpose of making more of itself. It will kill our civilization unless it is cut, poisoned, and radiated into remission.
Breivik fired the first shot in the civil war between Europeans and Muslim invaders. We will never submit to Islam. We will fight on the beaches, we will fight on the landing grounds, we will fight in the fields and in the streets, we will fight in the hills; we will never submit.
You need to take a serious look at yourself. Its not right that someone should be filled with so much hate! I follow no religion and I don’t judge others on what they believe unless it harms others. Breivik is an insane and very ill man. How can you not see that. If it was your family on that island that day, how would you feel?

Yes, keep thinking that Islam is the reason for most of the world’s problems. Be a good little sheep and keep watching your BBC and Fox news where you probably get all of your information. Of course it was Muslims that caused the global economic collapse right? Or how about the Massacres of Oklahoma, Columbine or Oslo? No, didn’t think so…
The only cancer in the world are people like you who hate on others because of race or religion.
I’m a Muslim, and let me enlighten you with something. Most Muslims (I’m talking over 90%) don’t give a flying f*ck about taking over civilizations and conquering the globe. It isn’t about power, its about spreading peace. You’ve probably never had a Muslim friend because of your closed-minded hatred.
Anders Breivik is a terrorist, a vile, twisted terrorist. My prayers go out to all the families who lost their children in the massacre.
“Generalization is verbal Genocide”
-Peace

In Italy, 95% of all rapists are Muslims. Eighty-five percent of all murderers are Muslims… France will have a Muslim majority in less than 25 years! Another telling statistic is that although the Muslims are 12% of France’s population, 70 percent of a total of 60,775 prisoners in France are Muslims! All of France’s urban suburbs are being roamed by Muslim black African or Arabic gangs… A very high proportion of French Muslims are in the underclass, that segment of the population that relies not so much on education and work as on welfare and predatory activities. In fact, over one thousand Muslim neighborhoods are under monitoring throughout France. Seven hundred of those Muslim neighborhoods are listed as “violent” and nearly 400 hundred are listed as “very violent.” Violence ranges from rape (95% of rapists are Muslim), murder (85% of murderers are Muslim), theft and looting of cars (58% committed by Muslims) and street fighting to assault on teachers and civil servants… source: masada2000
i bet you wouldnt say all this to the family’s of the innocent people he’s murdered in cold blood..you fucking piece of shit,
And what do you say to all vietnamese, Irakian, Afganian, Iranian, Korean, Japanese, Chilenian ets ets children, old people, whomen of the world that american soldiers slaughter for one thing only – the blessed american way of life???

Wake up man, the world is not black and white. Its all about the maximization of power, USA have bad people, and so does the rest of the world. We are all one Mankind, the sooner people realize this the sooner we can have global peace.
Nobody believes your taqiyya.
The essence of Islam is its founder, Muhammad. He was exceptionally cruel bandit, and yet Muslims call him uswa hasana (model of conduct) and al-insan al-kamil (perfect man). Their Islamic duty to emulate Muhammad’s crimes is called Sunna. Muslim mobs attack kafirs (non-Muslims) every day. There is no historical precedent of a Muslim majority tolerating kafir minority, but there is plenty of evidence that Islam cannot be reformed and that our desperate efforts to appease it have failed.
Grand mufti of Egypt is the most senior Sunni clergyman in the world. In 2008, Ali Gom’a, the grand mufti of Egypt, said in public: “Muslims must kill non-believers wherever they are unless they convert to Islam.”
What was the Muslim reaction to this statement? There was no reaction because Muslims already knew that it was their Islamic duty to kill us. Ali Gom’a merely reminded them of this duty. Islam is a crime against ALL humanity.
None of your “facts” can be substantiated by any reliable sources. I dont know where you are getting this information from. Have you ever met a muslim and had a genuine conversation?

This message board rejects all posts having URLs (links). I can send you the URLs and tons of info about Islam if you give me your email address.
I debated Islam with a dozen Muslims. I told them that I hated Islam, and yet some of them called me a friend. My best source of info about Islam are murtads (former Muslims). They told me that all true Muslims hate kafirs (non-Muslims) and they indoctrinate their children with this hate.
Do you also mean that every Christian behaves in exctly the same way, that all of them thinks and acts the same way just because of their religion? Have you ever been outside your own country? Not one person in the world is the same – so how can you say that EVERY muslim is like this? Have you forgot that it actually was a non-muslim that stood behind this horrible terrorr? isn’t that a cowardly act? and if so- is every Christian like Breivik?
Doesn’t have to be a link – we all know how to copy and paste, genius. So – make with these sources, I’m dying to see them.
Ali Gom’a’s statement was printed in Al Ahram (the most popular Egyptian newspaper) on April 7, 2008.
Every religion wants to make more of itself, and every religion is like Cancer. The Norway killer was Christian, not Muslim.
Breivik calls himself a “cultural Christian” which he says means someone who wants to preserve European culture. Islam is not a religion, but a genocidal ideology. It has destroyed the great civilizations of Egypt, Syria, Iran, and India. Name any area of achievement, any field of human endeavour — patents filed, literacy, quality of life, degree of civil or political freedoms, transparency, world-class universities, and so on. In every case, the nations of Islam are at or near the bottom in every category, and only barely beat sub-Saharan Africa in overall performance. The Muslim Arab world does not produce single manufactured product of sufficient quality to sell on world markets. Arab productivity and literacy are the lowest in the world. Nowhere in the Arab world is a world-class university, true democracy, respect for human rights, or a responsible media. Ralph Peters described the Arab Middle East as the world’s first entirely parasitic culture because “it imitates poorly, consumes voraciously, spits hatred, exports death, and creates nothing”.
