Anders Behring Breivik 'Planned to Bomb Barack Obama at Nobel Peace Prize Ceremony'

THE SUNDAY TELEGRAPH: Norwegian mass killer Anders Breivik planned to bomb President Barack Obama as he came to collect his Nobel Peace Price in 2009, it has been claimed.

The far-Right extremist told Norwegian police of a plot to drive a car packed with explosives onto the square next to Oslo City Hall, and detonate it while the ceremony was taking place there, according to Norway's Dagbladet newspaper.

Breivik, 33,told police that the Obama attack would have been largely symbolic, as the security surrounding the visit would have prevented him bringing the vehicle sufficiently close to the ceremony.

But, with hundreds of millions watching on television, he believed it would have been a perfect way to promote his anti-Islamic message. » | Richard Orange | Malmö | Sunday, April 01, 2012
