‘I am prepared to fight and die for my cause’

YESTERDAY’S shootings were carried out by Pekka-Eric Auvinen, who has also published a manifesto demanding war on the “weak-minded masses” and pledged to die for his cause.

YouTube appeared to have removed 89 videos linked to his account, many featuring Nazi imagery, shortly after the incident.

Finnish media reported someone posted a message two weeks ago on YouTube, warning of a bloodbath at the school. A video posted earlier yesterday by “Sturmgeist89” was titled “Jokela High School Massacre — 11/7/2007.”
