Country still mourns

Oslo:

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

A manifesto he published online - which police are poring over and said was posted the day of the attack - ranted against Muslim immigration to Europe and vowed revenge on "indigenous Europeans", whom he accused of betraying their heritage. It added that they would be punished for their "treasonous acts".

The lawyer for the 32-year-old Norwegian suspect, Anders Behring Breivik, said Sunday that his client wrote the document alone. While police said they were investigating reports of a second assailant on the island.
