Breivik: "won't appeal, sorry for not killing more!"

Accepting a sentence that could keep him imprisoned for life, Anders Behring Breivik apologized Friday for not killing more people in a bomb and gun massacre that left 77 people dead.

Breivik's gruesome and defiant statement could mark the end of a legal process that has haunted Norway for 13 months.

Prosecutors said they had not decided whether to appeal the ruling by Oslo's district court, which declared the right-wing extremist sane enough to be held criminally responsible for attacks "unparalleled in Norwegian history."

"Since I don't recognize the authority of the court I cannot legitimize the Oslo district court by accepting the verdict," Breivik said. "At the same time I cannot appeal the verdict, because by appealing it I would legitimize the court."

Then, Breivik said he wanted to issue an apology, but it wasn't for the victims, most of the teenagers gunned down in one of the worst peacetime shooting massacres in modern history.

"I wish to apologize to all militant nationalists that I wasn't able to execute more," Breivik said.
