The condemnation is good to see, but what are the Muslim groups who have condemned this attack doing to change the minds of their coreligionists and prevent something like this from happening again?
“Christians, Muslims condemn bombing in the Philippines,” by Joseph Peter Calleja, UCA News, November 7, 2022:
Christians and Muslims have deplored the bomb explosion on a bus that left one passenger dead and 11 injured in the southern Philippines.
The bomb went off inside an air-conditioned bus at a terminal in Sultan Kudarat province of Mindanao region on Nov. 6.
Among the injured nine are Muslims and two Catholics….
Sultan Kudarat Police Director Col. Christopher Bermudez told reporters on Nov. 6 that the bus was about to reach the terminal when the explosion occurred.
“Someone planted the bomb at the point of origin of the bus in Kidapawan City in Northern Cotabato. Then someone at the terminal [of arrival] in Sultan Kudarat province detonated it using a cellphone,” he said.
No group has claimed responsibility, but authorities believe Islamic extremists who have been active in the region for decades are behind the attack.
Christian and Muslim groups condemned the bombing as the “greatest threat” in the Mindanao region – the poorest region in the Philippines.
“Terrorism is the greatest threat in Mindanao region. This senseless attack should be stopped in the name of God and religion. The innocent should not shed a drop of blood for any political cause. We are one country, one nation,” said the Mindanao for Peace Christian and the Muslims for Peace in a joint statement.
