Breivik declared sane,gets 21-yr jail term; says sorry he didnt kill more

Justifying blowing up a government building and gunning down dozens of teenagers at a summer camp as a service to a nation threatened by immigration,he had said only acquittal or death would be worthy outcomes. But his biggest concern was being declared insane,a fate he said would be worse than death.

Judge Wenche Elizabeth Arntzen dismissed a prosecution call for her to label Breivik mad,a ruling that would have seen him confined indefinitely to psychiatric care rather than prison.

Prosecutors said they would not appeal,as did Breivik,who also refused to accept the verdict.

I cannot legitimise the court by accepting this sentence. At the same time I cannot appeal since doing that would mean I accept the court, he said.

Then,Breivik said he wanted to issue an apology,but it wasnt for the victims. I wish to apologise to all militant nationalists that I wasnt able to execute more, Breivik said.

He is getting what he deserves, said Alexandra Peltre,18,whom Breivik shot in the thigh. This is karma striking back at him. I do not care if he is insane or not,as long as he gets the punishment that he deserves.

Breivik,who surrendered to police on the island without a fight,admitted blowing up the Oslo government headquarters with a fertiliser bomb,killing eight,on July 22,2011,then shooting 69 at the ruling party’s summer youth camp.

Breivik will now be kept in isolation inside Ila Prison on the outskirts of Oslo inside relatively spacious quarters that include a separate exercise room,a computer and a television.

Breiviks lawyers say he is already at work writing sequels to the 1,500-page manifesto he released on the Internet before the attacks.
