Easy conclusions to be drawn, he's one of the scandinavia for scandinavians people, rightwinger going after the leftist youth as they are easier to shoot than debate with.
Last I read about 30 dead at the island.
Thats my guess too, target selection just does not add up with islamic terrorism.

Wow, a whole $110 million in 30 years?
That surely makes the Oklahoma bombings with 165 killed, over 700 injured and $15 million just in direct bomb damage pale in comparison. 
I'd wager that counting indirect damage that single attack cost way over $110 million.
Why do I get the feeling that these days every hoodrat tagging "**** the system" on a phone booth gets labeled as terrorism?

Originally by: Jada Maroo Obviously radicalized Muslims are a greater threat to your personal safety, but that doesn't mean you ignore the threat posed by the others.
Statistically, being struck by lightning is a far bigger threat to my personal safety than both, and given such an event may set my clothes on fire to my property as well.

You know, I thought about qualifying that statement because I knew someone would say exactly that. I'm talking about the realm of terrorist acts, obviously, but yes, both are unlikely to happen to you.
The problem I really have with all that is the fact that real threats to my property and safety, i.e. being mugged/stabbed/shot just two blocks from home, are taking a backseat while terrorism, which does not concern me all that much, is blown way out of proportion.
Especially the so-called eco-terrorism, which if we are honest for a seconds is in the large majority of cases just simple vandalism.

Wilkus made the reasonable assumption given the facts available. Car bombing in a major metro setting and a soft target attack with a purposefully high death toll (very Mumbai-like). For events like this, the culprits are almost always Muslim.
If this one isn't, it's noteworthy.
Actually, when government buildings and/or a specific (political or other) group are being targeted, in the western world that is a sure sign of the terrorist being a right/left-wing nutjob.
Since these facts were known with the inital media coverage of the incident, he didnt make a reasonable assumption at all. At least not reasonable for the somewhat educated and non-extremist part of the population.
