Norway Shooter Defends His Slaughter in Open Court: 'I Would Have Done It Again Apr 18th 2012, 05:32 http://www.time.com/time/world/artic...urce=pulsenews Some defense...he must be looking for an insanity verdict. Quote: (OSLO, Norway) — Norwegian gunman Anders Behring Breivik insisted Tuesday he would massacre 77 people all over again, calling his July rampage the most "spectacular" attack by a nationalist militant since World War II. Reading a prepared statement in court, the anti-Muslim extremist lashed out at Norwegian and European governments for embracing immigration and multiculturalism. He claimed to be speaking as a commander of an anti-Islam militant group he called the Knights Templar — a group that prosecutors say does not exist. Maintaining he acted out of "goodness, not evil" to prevent a wider civil war, Breivik vowed, "I would have done it again." (MORE: 'Anders Breivik Is Not Crazy'— the Surprise Defense of Norway's Mass Killer) Pressed by prosecutors to explain what he meant, he compared his attacks to the U.S. dropping atomic bombs on Japan during World War II. "They did it for something good, to prevent further war," Breivik said.
