But the perpetrator, Anders Behring Breivik, was nothing of the sort. In fact, he appears to have been an intelligent, well-educated individual and a competent businessman, who owned a successful farm. Nothing in either his life story or even in this unprecedented atrocity smacks of wild insanity. Just the opposite. He planned the whole operation with utter ruthlessness and precision, from using fertiliser from his farm to make the bomb that was planted at the government’s offices in Oslo, to disguising himself as a policeman to gain access to the island summer camp. feedback@thepunch.com.au (David Wilson) Article http://www.thepunch.com.au/articles/a-glimpse-into-scandinavias-heart-of-darkness/#comments http://www.thepunch.com.au/articles/a-glimpse-into-scandinavias-heart-of-darkness/#item6365 Sun, 24 Jul 2011 20:00:42 +0000 David Wilson | Author bios | The Punch
