Violence has erupted in Norway, as two terror attacks targeted a main government building as well as a Labor Party youth gathering on an island just south of the Norwegian capital, Oslo.
This morning, a massive bomb devastated Oslo’s main government building, which also houses Norway’s Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg’s office. Thus far, two people have been reported dead in the blast. The prime minister escaped without harm.
Meanwhile, a terrorist dressed up as a police officer opened fire on a group of youths participating in an annual gathering of the prime minister’s Labor Party on Norway’s Utoeya Island. While no one has claimed responsibility for these attacks, many are speculating that Al-Qaeda is involved.
This story is still developing — please pray for the loved ones of the victims of this tragedy, that the injured will recover fully, and for the safety of all in this usually peaceful Scandinavian country.

My prayers are with the people of Norway. We must remember that it is only the extremist Muslims that are violent. Not all Muslims believe in violence. Pray that the extremist are converted.

Why is it that everytime there is a terrorist attack, people are so quick to blame muslims and islam? On the other hand, when muslims are proven to have commited this attack in the name of islam, we will see yet again why this question is senseless.
