Breivik wanted to bring about ‘revolution’

THE man responsible for the attacks on Norway’s government headquarters and an island retreat for young people that left at least 93 dead was motivated by a desire to bring about a revolution in society, his lawyer said yesterday.

A manifesto he published online the same day of the attack — which police are poring over — ranted against Muslim immigration and vowed revenge on “indigenous Europeans”, whom he accused of betraying their heritage.

The manifesto said they would be punished for their “treasonous acts”.
