The man blamed for the deadly attacks on Norway's government headquarters and a youth retreat was said to have been motivated by a desire to bring about a revolution in Norwegian society.
Anders Behring Breivik also told police that he acted alone, in a 'cruel' but 'necessary' slaughter that he had planned over many months.
Police are now poring over a manifesto that Breivik is believed to have published online on the day of the attack.
The document rants against Muslim immigration to Europe, and vows revenge on 'indigenous Europeans', whom the writer accuses of betraying their heritage. It adds that they will be punished for their 'treasonous acts'.
Police have not confirmed that Breivik wrote the 1,500-page document, but his lawyer said the 32-year-old had been working on it for years.
The treatise ends with a detailed description of the plot, ending with a note dated 12.51pm on Friday saying: 'I believe this will be my last entry.'
