At A Time Like This…….

We are all Norwegian. So said the Prime Minister of Sweden when he heard of the bombing and the massacre. He spoke for the world.

There are no right words for such pointless murder on so great a scale. It is impossible to express enough emotion to do justice for the sympathy and horror we feel. That it was carried out by a fellow countryman, one who the victims instinctively trusted, but who had been driven to madness by prejudice and intolerance, must make the pain even worse.

The Norwegians are a tough and brave people. They are shaken, but they will not buckle. All the world is with them.
