Sri Lanka attacks: 'International network' linked to bombings

A wave of bombings that killed 290 people in Sri Lanka on Sunday was carried out with the support of an international network, officials said.

The government has blamed a little-known local jihadist group, National Thowheed Jamath, although no-one has yet admitted carrying out the bombings.

Another 500 people were injured in the suicide attacks on churches and hotels.

Police arrested 24 people in a series of raids and the president's office declared a state of national emergency.

The International network is called. “ISLAM”! Until world governments admit this it will keep getting worse. Anyone practicing Islam is endorsing terrorism.

We shouldn’t even be able to see these photos. Why? Because there should be a giant, radioactive hole right where this nonsense is taking place.

Meanwhile, Fox News is now a full fledged member of the MSM islam apologists cabal. They still refuse to report the obvious that this is a coordinated islamic terrorist attack, and are throwing water on what the Sri Lankan government has already admitted: they ignored clear warnings that these attacks would occur on Easter. The Daily Mail is hardly trumpeting these facts, but there is at least one small headline. Fox is a complete disgrace.

Fox says that no terrorist group has admitted the attack. The authorities already know the attackers were muslims, but Fox somehow thinks that we need a formal declaration to move this from the category of a “pack of” lone wolves. The media is a propaganda arm of the deep state aimed at total deception of the American people. There is now not a single major news organization willing to tell the truth.
