In the wake of the Norway bombing al Jazeera Interviews Devin Burghart, an expert on far-right extremism, about the Norway massacre.

The youth wing of Norway's Labour party will return to the island of Utoeya, where at least 84 of its members were killed, to show it will not yield to terror, its head said Saturday.

The youth wing of the ruling Labour party (AUF) "will not be silenced. In the face of this heinous and incomprehensible attack, we have this message: AUF and its ideas will survive as they always have," Eskil Perdersen told a news conference.

"We are not abdicating in the fight for our convictions. We will return to Utoeya," he said.

A Norwegian man suspected of setting off a blast that killed seven in central Oslo and gunning down 84 youths at a political meeting on Friday bought 6 tonnes of fertiliser in May, a farm supply firm said on Saturday.

Some kinds of agricultural fertiliser have been used in the past to make explosives. The suspect, identified by Norwegian media as Anders Behring Breivik, placed the order through his company, the supplier said.

"These are goods that were delivered on May 4," Oddny Estenstad, a spokeswoman at agricultural supply chain Felleskjoepet Agri, told Reuters, without giving the exact type of fertiliser purchased.

"It was 6 tonnes of fertiliser, which is a small, normal order for a standard agricultural producer."

"I do not know him or the company, except that it is a company that has contacted us in a normal manner and ordered fertiliser and had it delivered," she said.

Eye-witness reports from yesterday's attacks keep coming in :

"We had all gathered in the main house to talk about what had happened in Oslo. Suddenly we heard shots. First we thought it was nonsense. Then everyone started running," one survivor, a 16-year-old called Hana, told Norway's Aftenposten.

"I saw a policeman stand there with earplugs. He said 'I'd like to gather everyone'. Then he ran in and started shooting at people. We ran down towards the beach and began to swim."

Hana said the gunman fired at people in the water. Many sought shelter in buildings as shots echoed across the island that was hosting the annual camp for the youth wing of the Labour Party, the dominant force in politics since World War Two. Others fled into the woods or tried to swim to safety. Boats searched for survivors into the night, searchlights sweeping the coast. Rescue helicopters flew overhead.
