re : But God could have protected our innocent children that day and He did not. Why?

Does this protection only apply to America and maybe Israel that is if we ignore the Holocaust.

Was it gods will I was blown up in North Ireland, or did he stop protecting me, or was it because I moved to close to the booby trap.

This is the same blame the victim, and why us stuff that other people have put forward mainly by those who know nothing of the real world and what is really happening outside there shores.

OK, here's some hard Truth. God does allow evil to exist. That means that He allows men to be evil and do evil things to good people.

That, quite obviously, has nothing to do with 'blaming the victim.' But, you are engaging in the typical liberal nonsense of 'blaming God' because we live in a sinful world of our (mankind's) own making.

Actually, He went way beyond what we 'deserve' and made His Son Who knew no sin to be sinful for our sake.

And, by the way, sin knows no "shore". In case you haven't noticed, evil happens everyday on every shore. Yes, something as great as the 'unnoticed' (to you) Mohammedan evil (which has been 'known' to Christians for 1300 years plus or minus) does bring itself forcefully to our attention every once in a while. But it is certainly NOT the source of evil; it is merely a symptom of it.
