The explosion caused ‘minor damage,’ a Norwegian police commander said

An explosion on Sunday outside the U.S. embassy in Oslo, Norway, may be linked to the ongoing Middle East security situation, police have said said.

As of Sunday afternoon, no suspects had been identified, Norwegian police added.

“It’s natural to see this in the context of the current security situation and that this could be an attack deliberately targeting the U.S. embassy,” police spokesperson Frode Larsen told a news conference.

A “loud” explosion occurred at the entrance to the U.S. embassy in the city in the early hours of Sunday morning.

I’ve been saying this. We spent twenty fuck g years dealing with Islamic terrorism, and it was starting to die down. But now, between Gaza and Iran, we have a new ocean of danger to swim through. I hate this GOP criminal disrespect for everyone’s safety.

Also a decent chance it was the premature detonation of a device Trump was having delivered to those mean old jerks at the Nobel Prize committee.
