Norway Analysis: Questions and Lessons from Friday's Attacks in Oslo and Utoeya
Finally, this case is an example of the dangers of a “rush to judgement” without the full facts. I am as guilty of this as anyone else with my analysis yesterday, potentially linking the attacks to Al Qaeda.

In turn, the media were only to happy to lap this up and this groundswell of misjudgements can have real consequences for ordinary people.
