Shoes and debris litter the steps of St. Sebastian church as residents reveal shock of attack

When the first wave of blasts rocked St. Sebastian Church on Easter Sunday, more than 1,000 people had gathered to celebrate the holiest day in the Christian calendar. As details start to emerge and the investigation gets underway, residents reveal their shock at being targeted.

No one in this small, close knit Christian community had any reason to expect they might be attacked, or even experienced much hostility ahead of the bombing. Minuri, 26, said she was outside the church when the explosion occurred and saw glass and other debris outside the church. “We saw people being carried out, the injured,” she said. “We all knew the people who had died, everyone in the community.”

The story is not that 290 have died. The story is this:

While almost ALL other news outlets are reporting this morning that muslims terrorists committed the bombings, CNN does NOT make one mention of it in this morning's story. CNN is complicit with muslim terrorist attacks against non-muslims and MUST be shut down. They are enabling it.

The first thing one learns in Journalism class are the following questions used to write a story:

Who, what, where, when, why and how?

Failure to answer the questions is deliberate negligence in reporting.

MSNBC doesn’t report anything about the incident this morning. Nothing.

MSNBC reports it was a “local militant group”. What a relief, I thought at first it was Muslims.

Democrats and Muslims both crave the brutal obliteration of Christianity.

Terrorists who kill people this way should say:

SATAN Akbar

They are worshipping SATAN not God.

Muslim extremists are DEVIL worshiping... Killing people in the name of God is EVIL regardless of the religion...

Yes and I am pretty sure the final death toll will be over 300. Many of the injured had traumatic limb amputation and major bodily injuries. This is a third world country and its hospitals reflect that. I wish DT would offer to airlift these severely injured people to US military hospitals for care. All this crap about the border jumpers these are real victims of a real enemy.

Try to get them through security. The TSA is very, very good at ferreting out any liquids of more than 3.5 ounces. Profiling “stuff” is what they do.

Islam delenda est.

The only way civilization can continue is through the eradication of Islam.

I wonder if that is how MSNBC reported the attacks in Christchurch?

CNN Airport Network, unavoidable to captive air travelers, probably accounts for a large percentage of their ratings.

That this (Enemedia) network-airport scheme exists sickens me.

If you read the Koran you’ll find that all muslims are extremists bent on total world conquest.

Not that I am advocating for it BUT,
I sure would like to see some mooselimbs attacked and and killed by Marauding Christians for a change.
Maybe firebomb some mosques.
Let these insane 4th century thugs see what it’s like.
Then have Christians cheer like these animals do.
