Two hours after the bomb, surely the Norwegian authorities are not spread so thin that the bomb consumed ALL of their resources and staff?

They had received prior threats, I would expect some sort of advance contingency planning to have taken place.
Terrorist targeting multiple locations is not new, some force should always be held in reserve in case of multiple attacks.

Once a bomb has gone off, the most useful people are the bomb squad and fire departments.
Regular cops have little to contribute beyond crowd control, officers should have been available to respond to the island attack.

They just had a bomb training exercise in Oslo two days earlier! Someone either didn’t pay attention or...

I don’t know, this whole thing is just WEIRD.
