ISIS claimed responsibility on Tuesday for the Easter Sunday suicide bomb attacks in Sri Lanka, as an official in the country said the preliminary investigation into the attacks shows it was "retaliation" for the massacre of Muslims at mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand. The coordinated bombings on Sunday, targeting churches and hotels in and around the Sri Lankan capital, killed more than 320 people.

"The preliminary investigations have revealed that what happened in Sri Lanka was in retaliation for the attack against Muslims in Christchurch," state minister of defence Ruwan Wijewardene told parliament. No other Sri Lankan officials repeated the assessment of the intelligence, and it was unclear what Wijewardene based his judgement on.

Fifty people were killed in shooting attacks on two mosques in the New Zealand city of Christchurch on March 15. An Australian white supremacist is accused of carrying out the attack on his own, and streaming his acts on Facebook.

Notre Dame fire in retaliation for a bad souffle?

[Road Warrior ‘04]

The killings, burnings & Notre Dame? All, I believe, the ROP!

There were eight or nine crusades, though only the first four were of any importance. The Crusades were Christian military expeditions mounted to wrest the Holy Land from the Muslims who had conquered it.

> How many crusades were there?

Ultimately, not as many as there needed to be.

Time to correct that.

“...So where do you go to kill 2,000 muzzies all at once? Minnesota?....”
It would be one heckuva good start. Toss em all off the roof of the MOA....why waste bullets.

[SkyDancer]

So they’re saying “we’re cool now”?

[libh8er]

Totally in line with our former Muslim president’s “you bring a knife, we bring a gun”.

[shanover]

The American media tried its best to bury the story. Islam should have been dealt with right after 9/11 as harsh as we dealt with the Nazis Germans and Imperial Japanese.

[Grampa Dave]

he press in the USA said : “ Meh, no big deal, just a bunch of dead Christians people!”

[itzmygun]

So many leftists completely buy into this. Muslim terrorist attacks on Christians and Westerners are simply reparation. We deserve it. We just need to sit back and take it.

I guess once we let them kill enough of us, we can hug it out and live in peace forever.

[Vinnie]

Bingo.

[SMGFan]

Because they claim the attackers were in retaliation , I guess we cannot respond with force ?

There will be added security at mosques as Ramadan starts.

This provides an excellent example of just how sick the muzzlimes are. Absolutely mentally ill. Half a world away, someone does violence to a mosque. As "retaliation" (their pathetic excuse at justifying their heinous act), they blow up hundreds of people who had nothing to do with the New Zealand mosque.

Yeah, makes perfect sense.

In a movie about mental disease.

"Ah ha! So the bombings really were Trump’s fault! I knew it."

Actually, that is probably exactly what CBS is trying to hint at; after all, the Muslims are always the victims.

[Born to Conserve]

The moslums are playing russian roulette. If they release me from the social boundaries set by my mother, by hurting someone in my family, they will perish, all of them. Seriously.

[justa-hairyape]

Why would humans think a God needs humans to kill ? Is not a God by definition a God ? If a God wants something gone, it should be gone. No human activity required.

[bgill]

They’ve never learned the concept of turning the other cheek or forgiveness.

[Jmouse007]

BS, Muslims are always looking for any excuse to kill and maim innocent Christians, and “infidels” who have done them no harm, all in the name of Islam and in service to their insatiable, blood thirsty god allah/Satan.
