Norway: Terror attacks

I would imagine that he could get life for each sentence ,as in this country the Norwegian judge could rule that the sentences run consecutively as opposed to concurrently.
They also have a sentance called "containment" which is set at 21 yrs with parole after 10yrs ,if the offender is still deemed a threat then another 5 yrs can added once that has finished the prisoner can have further 5yr terms added so in theory he could end up serving actual life

The maximum indeterminate penalty, called "containment" (Norwegian: forvaring), is also set at 21 years imprisonment, and the prisoner is required to serve at least 10 years before becoming eligible for parole. "Containment" is used when the prisoner is deemed a danger to society and there is a great chance of committing violent crimes in the future. If the prisoner is still considered dangerous after serving the original sentence, the prisoner can receive up to five years additional containment. If the additional time is served, and the offender is still considered dangerous, a prisoner can continue to receive up to five years additional containment, and this, in theory, could result in actual life imprisonment.[2] However, the offender can be paroled or released at any time if it is determined that the offender is no longer a danger to society

It should be noted that his manifesto is incredibly large and detailed (I happen to know he played some of my favourite games for instance and he likes top gear) and while most of it is completely nuts, there are bits that if you cut out look liberal and sensible compared to your average daily mail column.

Never read the Daily Mail so can not comment on that

On a sunny, placid Friday one week ago Marcel Gleffe was relaxing at Utvika, a pristine campsite on Lake Tyrifjorden not far from here, when he recognized the sound coming from Utoya, an island less than a half-mile away. Some at the camp thought it was fireworks. No, said Mr. Gleffe, a German with a military background, it was gunfire.
Without pausing to consider that he might be thrusting himself directly in harm’s way, Mr. Gleffe ran to his Pioneer 15 motorboat, gunned the engine and pointed the boat toward Utoya. “For the first trip,” he told the Norwegian newspaper Dagbladet, “I was all alone.”
By the time the police arrived at least an hour later and ordered him to stop, Mr. Gleffe said, he had made four or five trips to Utoya and picked up 20 to 30 people.

What a hero for risking his own life to save others.

Morrissey: 'McDonald's, KFC worse than Norway massacre'

The ex-Smiths frontman compared the behaviour of McDonald's and Kentucky Fried Chicken to that of Anders Behring Breivik, who killed at least 76 people in two terrorist attacks at the weekend, The Mirror reports.

Before playing 'Meat Is Murder' at the Stodola Club in Warsaw, Poland, Morrissey said: "We all live in a murderous world, as the events in Norway have shown, with 97 dead.

"Though that is nothing compared to what happens in McDonald's and Kentucky Fried <removed> every day."

As always, NewsThump has a good take on it:

"Your leather sofa is worse than the holocaust, insists Morrissey"

The former Smiths frontman, on a visit to his hometown, accosted shoppers at DFS’s Wythenshawe branch as they browsed the latest furniture designs during their lunch hour.

The singer has called on people with television sets not to be taken in by adverts featuring smiling families cuddled up on a huge leather settees, and likened the featured actors to members of the Gestapo.

“In my eyes they are no better,” he told us, “Sure, they’re only doing what they’re told by the director, but is that really an excuse?”

“Oh – and check out the blonde woman. Enough said.”
Morrissey outrage

Morrissey has since been barred from the store after telling a six year-old girl that she was sitting on a dead animal and “how would she like it if someone came round to her house and turned Daddy into an L-shaped leather recliner with a moustache”.

Norwegians are a bit strange aren't they.

I don't understand the concept of allowing that to happen at all ... But then again, I suppose the mass killer holds a lot of answers to a lot of questions, but it remains a strange thing for the authorities to allow.
