"Norwegians everywhere are in Mary's and my thoughts and prayers tonight. We're especially heartbroken to learn that children were targeted in these attacks. The murder of so many people is a reminder that evil exists, and the world must rally to defeat it. Norway has been one of America's greatest allies in the War on Terror, and we should stand with them in their efforts to identify and defeat those behind this cowardly attack."
