The slaughter of the Tamils is more horrific. But innocent civilians should not be targeted

Difficult to know what to say apart from the world is full of sick individuals

Jeez, attacking people in Churches on Easter ... how sick can some people get?

Its well planned
This is attack on the Government

The Terrorists (Still mot named , at this time)
do not want outsiders in their nation.

British are in those hotels
we await to find out if any are dead.

Stuff like this makes me not wanna go farther east than like, Dover, in case the last words I hear are ALLAHU ACKBAR...

+1

Nasty and vicious

Wonder who's behind it.

That's not fair and you know it. Europe is no more Muslim than the UK. In fact in some countries there're hardly any Muslims.
Not to mention vast majority of Muslims are peaceful. And religious antrocities used to happen in Christan Europe in the past. A lot.

The Government has put a 12 hour Curfew on,
and Cut the Internet
in that zone of Colombo City and Outskirts
, as a total of 8 Bombs in all now.
Police are checking camera feed to try to track the group of Evil Terrorists
that are behind this massacre
The Ministry Of Defense claim to have identified them?

certainly doesn't put Sri Lanka on the list of desirable tourist locations

That could be what the Terrorist Group
wanted to happen

also few dutch among victims i read

Yes Cherie I was just thinking how do we respond to something like this,speechless almost.

Just saw this on the news, it's very sad. One Portuguese person died there. Its very diverse there, I'm guessing a lot of countries will have lost someone.

Also
One Dutch Person
sadly confirmed dead.

The Ministry of Defense
have identified them as "Religious Extremists"
but no name for that Evil group , yet

i wonder what religion they are referring too as we can strike off Christian?

Awful but sadly not surprising, especially in the east where attacks like these are tragically all too common. Sri Lanka is surprising though, it seems like a rather random country to target.

I wonder which group will claim responsibility, IS is all but done for so I'd assume Al Qaeda would be behind it.


Yup, honestly when it comes to terrorism in the UK, I'd worry more about Right Wing Terrorism, it's on the rise and it's only a matter of time before it becomes more widespread and common.

Some LBC callers theorise that it's related to the upcoming elections over there.

Fair enough - east of Spain.

Irrelevant.

Yes its Isis or Old Tamil Terrorist group.
Strange the Leader in Sri Lanka
do not want to name the group, yet ?


It all started at 9AM
many bombs at the same time

how many UK citizens have been killed by Muslim terrorits in the last 5 years and how many by RW terrorists?


i doubt, imo, any Brit is worried about RW terrorism

Using an incident involving fatalities to spew Islamophobia is sick. But then I don’t expect better from you.

Sadly 5 British Dead
so far.


The hotels had so many nationals
in them.

The 5 British Dead
are 3 with British Passports
and 2 with Joint British /USA Passports

Not necessarily irrelevant.
Islam is roughly 500 years younger than Christianity. If we assume that religions evolve in a simillar way and go through a period of violent zealotry then Islamist terrorists are equivalent to Christian zealots of the 15th and 16th centuries. Which would cover inquisition, religious wars in Europe and St. Bartholomew's Massacre in France where thousands of Hugenots were slaughtered in broad daylight. Even the then French King was taking potshots at people from his palace windows.

so you are saying we should not let this unevolved religion people into the UK as they are going to be violent?

we should carry on what we're doing, fighting extremism wherever it rears its head, Islam or far right, they share a lot tbh

well one is huge and the other is tiny by comparison so best we focus on the big one

as we are rightly doing

we have two eyes, we can watch both

[Religion in Sri Lanka:
Theravada Buddhism is Sri Lanka's biggest religious group,
making up about 70.2% of the population, according to the most recent census.
It is the religion of Sri Lanka's Sinhalese majority. It is given primary place in the
country's laws and is singled out in the constitution.
Hindus and Muslims make up 12.6% and 9.7% of the population respectively.
Sri Lanka is also home to about 1.5 million Christians,
according to the 2012 census, the vast majority of them Roman Catholic.]

Stop killing people you horrible bastards!

The Ministry had a warning
a few weeks ago that a Radical Muslim Group would attack.
But it was not specified what kind of attack

[Officials have described the explosions as
a terror attack by religious extremists]

https://news.sky.com/story/sri-lanka...otels-11699695

290 dead now

it's a horrifying attack with every probability that it's ongoing. Seems to me that it had some high level support within the country too. People were well aware that things were being planned and did nothing, with leaders claiming they weren't informed. That doesn't ring true to me at all.

That's a not true
The ministry man said it was not specified
what type of attack was coming.


It was on GMBHD itv this morning
The BBC are also saying what you said

don't you know an excuse when you hear it? There is no way an attack of this size went down in Sri Lanka without senior people being involved in it.
