OSLO, Norway — A loud explosion has shattered windows at the government headquarters in Oslo which includes the prime minister's office, injuring several people.

Norwegian news agency NTB said the prime minister is safe.

An AP reporter says newspaper offices in the area are also damaged and smoke is drifting in the streets.

Norwegian prosecutors on Tuesday filed a terrorism charge against Mullah Krekar, founder of the Kurdish Islamist group Ansar al-Islam. Mullah Krekar is accused of threatening a former minister, Erna Solberg, with death.

My guess is that this was either done by a 6-year old girl or an 80-year old grandma, both white, American and Christian.

A 6 year old girl or 90 year old grandmother in diapers did this, both Americans and white.

Two confirmed dead now.

I wonder if that newspaper printed any "bomb worthy" cartoons.

Great minds think alike.

I am imposing a personal 8 hour rule on this before even trying to figure out who was behind this, as the information we have been given is sketchy at best.

Sorta my line of thinking, too.

But, we don't know enough, yet.

It does appear to be the style of Muslim terrorists so far.

Bombing Norway?

That's fucking stoopid on so many levels. The last thing you want is the decendants of Vikings pissed off at you.

Prayers for the victims, I hope they get justice.

Good idea.

If they are smart, no one will claim it.
