at around three in the afternoon a bomb was detonated in oslo. later that day there was a second attack at a summer camp for young political activists on utoya island around a0km away. this is some of the bbc report in the aftermath of the first attack — the explosion in oslo. a bomb attack on the heart of norway's government. all government ministers seemed to be safe but at least two people are dead, some are reported trapped. eight people ultimately died as a result of that bombing. and earlier today a ceremony took place outside what was once the prime minister's office — that space has remained an empty shell since the attack due to disagreements over how to rebuild it. here's norway's prime minister speaking at the memorial. translation: the taper ofjuly 22 was an attack on our democracy. it was a politically motivated terroristic attack against the labour party, the year chris with week, and their readers. it was more than one political movement that was affected, an entire country was hit on the ground. doorway was changed by an expen

i will not get into a dispute over the oslo accord, i noticed the spectator magazine said, "it is required to step in as and when needed", and i guess a global pandemic might be regarded as an ultimate need and it is in all of our interests for everybody to be vaccinated but on the point about the impact for benjamin netanyahu, could it be a way out for him? this is not an election of his choosing, it was forced on him because of the politics of the dispute over the budget, something under the coalition agreement he signed was supposed to be passed and he was resistant to it. there are some suggestions he may have wanted an election because he was about to have to hand over the prime ministership to the other party of the coalition and it is a good way of stopping that happening. he is also facing charges on three separate criminal trials, he is in some trouble. i think the success of the vaccination may well see him home or much better than he would have done before. the interesting thing about covid is it has shone a light on the gross inequality in this country, in israel because the pa
