Oklahoma City bombing inspired Breivik, Norway’s mass murderer (VIDEO)
The Oklahoma City bombing and Al Qaeda attacks served as inspiration and education for mass murderer Anders Behring Breivik, he told a courtroom in Norway today, The Associated Press reported.
On the fifth day of his trial, the man accused of killing 77 Norwegians relayed details about how he studied Timothy McVeigh’s 1995 bombing of a US government building that killed 168 and injured 600.
He also said he poured over details surrounding the 1993 World Trade Center bombings and Al Qaeda operations.
“We want to create a European version of Al Qaeda,” he said, according to the AP. “I have studied each one of their actions, what they have done wrong, what they have done right.”
Breivik admitted to killing eight people by bombing a Norwegian government building, then shooting 69 others – mostly teens – at a Labour Party camp on July 22; he said they betrayed Norway by embracing multiculturalism.
The far-right extremist has pleaded not guilty, and claims to be part of a Christian group called the Knights Templar.
Authorities have found no evidence of a larger group, and two court reports disagree on Breivik’s sanity.
