The condemnations from world leaders are rolling in now. This is all just empty virtue-signaling unless the root cause of such attacks is addressed. But it will not be.
“Sri Lanka Blasts LIVE: 185 Killed in Decade’s Worst Terror Attack as 6 Explosions Rock Churches, Hotels on Easter,” News18.com, April 21, 2019:

Two of the six attacks that rocked Sri Lanka this morning are reportedly to be have been carried out by suicide bombers. The attack at Shangri La hotel was carried out by suicide bomber Zahran Hashim, while Abu Mohammad has been identified as the attacker at the Batticalao church….
cfrread says
Politicians and media will not call it a Moslem Jihad.
They use:
~terror
~bombings
~explosions
~heinous acts…
As if the above occur in a vacuum.
No outrage a la Christchurch.
Just subdued ‘our hearts are with our friends in Sri Lanka’
Cowards, Ignoramuses, Losers.
Moslem Jihad yet again.
Say it, condemn it, fight it, and stop importing it.
Bijou says
As Omar said ‘ someone did something’ again.
Sons of Liberty says
Exactly , Bijou ! Someone did something and their rights were infringed . The open border with Mexico is setting us up for another someone did something ! They are catching individuals from numerous terrorist countries but according to Democrats we don’t have a crisis at our border with Mexico !
jayell says
I’ve just read the Daily Mail report. There is no mention at all that any of the attacks in that part of the world (or anywhere else) were perpetrated by muslims, and they even make a point of publishing condemnatory statements by the presidents of Pakistan and Turkey (a bit rich after some of the things that Erdogan has said recently). So obviously the Disciples of the Great Prophet are now becoming increasingly ambitious and (especially after their ‘success’ at Notre dame), and with all the jihadis now roaming free in Europe and around the world, we’ve got to assume that they’re aiming for the ‘big one’ some time in the future (Christmas or next Easter).

Allow Islamic leaders to say it for them:
“Islam is a religion of blood for the infidels …
Kill them. Put them to the sword” – Ayatollah Khomeini
“Islam is a religion of killing” – Al Baghdadi, Caliph of IS
christianblood says
Very likely the hollywoodized CIA activated its jihadist proxies in Sri Lanka to stop the huge Chinese investments going on in that country and create chaos and mayhem and of course to initiate mass-murder against Christians!
libertyORdeath says
Sure, the CIA is responsible:D We should have known
Terry Gain says
Christian Blood
Were you responsible for these atrocities?
WPM says
Christbloody nose proof is the messages he receives threw his tin foil hat, he will now post some links to Israel, or Trump talking to the Chinese officials ,or eastern European folk dances as his proof of this plot.It is either the western governments fault for Jihadist attacks or the evil JOOOS any where in Christianboods world never just evil pure Islam.
Emma Miller says
I agree. Mainstream mediate might mention in the last sentence if at all who’s done it.
Not ” As we can see worldwide Islam attempts to take over and destroys our world”
kuriakose says
Horrible news. Less than 10% of the population, yet able to inflict such damage. Reports will exonerate islam, whilst blaming ‘radical islam’ for this outrage.
Pie Jesu, pie Jesu, pie Jesu, pie Jesu
Qui tollis peccata mundi

Pie Jesu, pie Jesu, pie Jesu, pie Jesu Qui tollis peccata mundi

Agnus Dei, Agnus Dei, Agnus Dei, Agnus Dei Qui tollis peccata mundi Dona eis requiem, dona eis requiem Dona eis requiem Sempiternam
Dona eis requiem Sempiternam Requiem Sempiternam
GROO the Wonderer says
Amen
Spoor says
I don’t want to draw a comparison here as both are act of deplorable violence but… There is no outrage reaching the level of Christchurch shooting, nor does it seems discussion in regard to these terrorist attack on easter last as long and as relevant as Christchurch shootings despite happening annually
Terry Gain says
The Christchurch atrocities were carried out by a sick person with no community support, who has been universally condemned.
The Sri Lanka atrocities were carried out by adherents of a sick conquest ideology whose actions are supported by numerous commands in their so-called holy book. The responsibility of the sick ideology for these atrocities will be ignored and denied.
David says
Aptly put as French authorities maintain such acts are carried out by mentally unstable persons especially if they are Muslim
Kevin says
And the funny part is that most media mentions that the Christians had got warnings from hardline Buddhists. These people don’t understand that Buddhists and Hindus are peace loving to the core and only react if they are pushed to a corner and tortured to that critical threshold.
Pity that the media is biased and acting like idiots even when reports clearly mentioned the names of the terrorists.. who belonged to The Religion of Pieces
Terry Gain says
Islam is a supremacist, totalitarian conquest ideology which has allegedly religious aspects, which while completely irrational, shield it from criticism which is not only justified but necessary if Islam’s goal of conquest is going to be resisted.
Ecosse1314 says
I now just waiting for the politicians in the west to come out and warn us against blaming the ROP. Stepping up security at mosques etc.
In Scotland our wee rat of a First Ministerwas in a mosque bewailing the Christchurch attack(terrible as it was) saying she was showing solidarity with our Muslim friends. I wouldn’t put much money on her rushing to a Church any time soon.
andrew mckendrick says
No doubt our dear wee leader is searching her wardrobe for a pectoral cross to wear in solidarity with her Christian victims…wonder if she remembered to wish happy Easter to her Christian citizens this year unlike last year.
Ecosse1314 says
You are joking. More chance of Ayr winning the Premier league
Beneath the Veil of Consciousness says
To the media at large: Let’s play, “Connect the Dots” (Journalism 101). Oh, that’s right, journalists aren’t practicing journalism.
Just read that Erdogan texted that the attacks were an attack on all of humanity.
What a deceitful hypocrite. This is the same bastard that jailed a Christian pastor under the false pretense of being a spy and who has been calling for a new Islamic caliphate. Why does the media continue to give this tyrant any voice? He is surely one of the dots that must be connected.

“The condemnations from world leaders are rolling in now. This is all just empty virtue-signaling unless the root cause of such attacks is addressed. But it will not be.”
Robert Spencer keeps hitting the nail on the head.
Michael Copeland says
As Alexander Boot says, ” T&P for the IV”
(Thoughts and prayers for the innocent victims).
Michael Copeland says
At least the media are covering these attacks.
When the Baghdad Church was bombed in October 2010 with 58 killed and dozens wounded what did the the BBC do?
They DID NOT EVEN MENTION IT,
Michael Copeland says
When, two days later, the BBC did mention it, the egregious Clive Myrie referred to the event as “a disaster”.
Agostino Armo Pellegrini says
… jihad suicide bombings at churches on Easter and hotels now 185.
It’s obvious what inspires muslim terror like this, islam’s religious doctrines and their culture of hate against religious freedom. That’s why the politicians and leaders who lie and shill for islam are really looking more criminal than ever by concealing the obvious association between the crime and the motivating cause. Imagine if a prosecutor or a law enforcement agent did the same thing for some generic street crime, they’d probably go to jail for obstruction or complicity. Anyone who protects islam with lies and excuses is far worse than a holocaust denier, they are actively working to conceal evidence and exculpate the guilty.
The muslim god says,
“… do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends…”
…so of course faithful muslims will consider them enemies. The muslim god also says,
“…kill them wherever you find them… such is the recompense of the unbelievers.”
Teachings like this will invariably cause murder and terror.
When you teach bigotry and intolerance as godly truth then you feed people’s worst nature with the perfect excuse to be despicable. Allah and muhammad taught violence and glorified violence against unbelievers and “idolaters,” and unsurprisingly that’s what muslims have been doing for 1400 years. This is why so many muslims riot and kill over silly cartoons or a torn page in a koran, because they have been conditioned by their “religion” to be hyper-vigilant bigots with little regard for the feelings and beliefs of others. It’s time the apologists and appeasers get it through their thick skulls, islam is a Nazi-like creed that mass murders on the same scale as Hitler did with his gas chambers (worse actually). If any muslims you know happen to be good it’s not because they learned it from their religion, it’s because they had the good sense to ignore it. Give islam the criticism it deserves, stop making excuses for ideological teachings that encourage fanatical behavior for bigoted, self-serving reasons. Such ideas are not good for humanity, they are against our best human rights and have caused more death and suffering than any other religious paradigm in history. The left acts as if protecting islam were some “chic” enterprise when in reality they are more like corrupt politicians protecting Murder Incorporated. There is no excuse for these people, they have lost their credibility and deserve to be ousted or in jail. And I’m not joking, and I’m not exaggerating.
Terry Gain says
Islam is worse than Nazism. At least Hitler didn’t claim that his atrocities were commanded by God. Muslims will carry out the next holocaust when they are able to do so. That day is fast approaching.
peter says
Exactly .All he media and politicians complicit in this cover up are worse than Nazis and they should be strung up the same way Italians did Mussolini
CRUSADER says
Muslims have made this animosity a religious matter.
Call this what it is — Holy War
Mike says
Why is it in Christchurch the gunman was the villian and was unmercifully condemned as such, when here even the bombers names are in the article but mostly as a side note.
