The calm reactions of the Norwegians and the thoughtful statements from officials – not jumping to conclusions prematurely – is truly admirable. It shows that despite the gruesome acts committed one does not have to point fingers before knowing enough details.
It’s impressive on so many levels. While news commentators were already speculating about connections with some kind of Muslim fundamentalists, the police and other officials decided to wait for facts.
Sincere condolences to the families of the victims.
