In addition, as Business Insider notes:
The other big possibility, touted by some on Twitter, is that the attack could have come from the Norwegian right. The Norwegian far right were once a feared proposition but have been relatively mellow in recent years due to the success of populist success of the Progress Party.BBC notes:
Meanwhile a gunman dressed as a policeman started shooting at a Labour youth camp on the island of Utoeya.
Unconfirmed reports say several people have been killed. The gunman has been arrested.The Telegraph reports:
Hours later there was an summer camp youth conference of the ruling Labour Party, which is being attended by current Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg. The conference is taking place on the island of Utøya. The man apparently infiltrated the conference on the pretence that he had been sent by the police as a security measure in the wake of the Oslo explosions. As such, it is likely he was ethnically Norwegian. This could indicate the involvement of a far-right group rather than an Islamist group ...But see this.
