So now it is the fifth day of the trial of Anders Behring Breivik (ABB). Norwegians like to use all three names, there is usually a first name, middle name and surname.

NRK shows in its daily TV program everything that happens in the court, with a column on the right showing questions and the answers by ABB.

He has been telling about some other planned terror attacks, which he gave up. He considers himself a victim, because, according to him, it was necessary to do the killings and he knew people would hate him for that. He regrets that he did not kill more people. He only cried seeing his own film he sent to YouTube: "because my ethnic group would die", he never cried for the real victims.

"According to the normal norms he is pretty crazy. He has created a fantacy world and his own universe which no arguments can bite", says Kjell Lars Berge, an expert on rhetorics.

If he cannot be called crazy, then we should invent a new word to describe him.
