The initial six explosions injured as many as 500 people, including Japanese and British citizens, and 35 foreigners - from the UK, US, Netherlands and Portugal - are among the dead, sources say. Reports now indicate a seventh explosion in the southern Colombo suburb of Dehiwala - which killed two people - and an eighth in the northern suburb of Orugodawatta, which killed three police officers during a house search. Britain's High Commissioner to Sri Lanka James Dauris said: 'We understand that some British citizens were caught in the blasts but we are unable to say how many people are, or might have been, affected.'

Oh dear Pres Trump tweeted “Heartfelt condolences from the people of the United States to the people of Sri Lanka on the horrible terrorist attacks on churches and hotels that have killed at least 138 million(sic) people and badly injured 600 more. We stand ready to help!

European Response - ‘It’s time for Sri Lanka to better integrate their Muslim population.’

It is time to remove Islam from the non-Islamic world. The Chinese know what’s up and look how they are responding to the threat - thoroughly and decisively.

Weird how many electrical problems are accompanied by shouts of “Allah Akbar”.

Despicable, vile Islam and its adherents!

Jesus said “By their fruits you will know them.”

Their fruits are murder, destruction, injury and blood.

Sounds like a series of electrical shorts on the roof. We all know that Muzzies don’t target Christian churches.
