Deep state false flag! U slime want us divided. It won’t work!! Qanon

Israel stands with the Sri Lankan people and hopes that the terrorism will stop!

You misspelled Islamic suicide bombers.

How much money can these churches raise

We israelis stand with the sri lankian peple!

I sure hope they pass a law to take their guns and bombs and stuff! 😏

oh。。。jesus!

This is extremely sad. But why do we not treat this like we treated that monster in New Zealand? What is the difference. That happened it was about the evil of the white man, what’s the difference?

When will the hate stop? There is not sacred religion that states such a thing!!

well, after this tweet, cnn will pivot to russia.... as this story shows cnns favorite victim class in a bad light....

Prayers for our brothers and sisters in Christ! Jesus is The Way The Truth and The LIFE. IT IS FINISHED. HE IS RISEN!!! Lord God deliver the persecuted church!

Prayers. This is so sad.

And who did this? You know so say it! Islamic Extremists!!!

Radical Islamic terrorist but poor them right

Happy Easter to you and yours Joe.Thank you for all you do.🌄

All I had to read was explosions and i can figure who is behind it .

The blond haired blue eyed Swedish folks strike again.

CNN just reported 160+ killed and over 560 injured. People who were happy well and hearty 24 hrs ago.

An evil, cowardly act meant to terrorize believers on a most Holy day.

or whatever you believe in. And extend the same respect for those who don't believe (Atheists) We can all do better.

Happy Easter. And let's keep Sri Lanka in our hearts on this special day. Ppl have a right to worship who and where they wish to. It doesn't matter if you don't believe. Ppl need to extend respect towards others and their right to worship as Christians, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists

This is absolutely horrific. My heart goes out to the people of Sri Lanka, and I hope they know that they world is behind them. We need to unite to reject terrorism, the targeting of civilians with violence. Unfortunately, here in Israel we know these horrors too well.

Humanity and love for one another is disappearing bit by bit

Too bad the pile of bodies are all Christians. If this was happening in New Zealand and the pile of bodies were Muslim, there would be wall to wall coverage in the media.

“Some people did something”

From realDonaldTrum '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 people and badly injured 600 more. We stand ready to help!' Is Trump Stupid?

Quel tristesse

Somebody inform the PM of New Zealand

Wake up America

The Earth and its humans. So sad!!

Hey, IlhanMN, some people did something.

The Satanic Deepstate trying to change the narrative they know FISA declass is Coming. They want a Religious War and the MSM is helping them.Nothing can stop what is coming Nothing.

Sri Lanka's Christian population represents 7% while Buddhists are about 70%, Hindus 15% and Muslims 11%. It's 2019, how long will this religious intolerance remain? People were supposed to love each other. PrayersForSriLanka

Still think Islam is peaceful?

They’re saying suicide bombers.

What an ungodly act is these....!! My condolences to the victims families..from Nigeria 🇳🇬 😪😪

'...and on this Rock I will build my church, and the powers of death shall not prevail against it.' -- Matthew 16:18 The Lord and Savior Jesus Christ - Glory!

Such disgraceful beings.

But the Angel said to the women, Do not be afraid; for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified. He is not here; for He has RISEN, as he said'.. -- Matthew 28:5-6

FisaGate news deflection

CNN reporter's are so hurting and frustrated now except Wolf, Wolf is not part of the propaganda news he is neutral the rest of the reporters try all their efforts to help Democrats to overthrow the president but it fail them now they are so hurting and frustrated at their center

Another muslim attack

I bet it wasn't Islamic terrorists, Islam is a religion of peace

This is the evil planners of 911 in America doing all of this to start a war. Look up operation Northwoods. See what they do to start wars. Look at Notre Dame and all the other churches. Dont fall for this. Research false flags and the deep state.

The taste of religion is really varied. It’s terrible.😱

False flag operation to ignite a religious war.

Muslims

How convenient. I hate evil.

I HOPE THE NEW ZEALAND PREMIER CONDEMS THIS OUTRAGE

Was that something done by some people?

I don’t see the same coverage of this, like it did with New Zealand’s mosque attack.

Sad This Things Happened On A EasterDay 😔😔

Damn world.. People dont even fear divinities anymore 😪😑

Christianphobia Christian-haters

Keep us updated with what happened!!

What caused the explosions? This is horrible!!😯

Notre Dame Cathedral Fire: Suspicion After Hundreds of French Churches Vandalized! via YouTube

Hmmm!!! I wonder, suicide bomber, hmmm!!🤔

Islam strikes again. Looking forward the the MSM saying Muslims should give up their firearms as they did after NZ.

Someone check if the PM of New Zealand has put her sad face back on and is now wearing a crucifix.

GM_Brian_Blurt

At least 101 people were killed and over 450 others injured as multiple blasts hit churches in Sri Lanka during Easter services on Sunday. SriLanka

Wow. Can’t believe you are covering this.

It’s time to end the “religion of peace” and that liberals who enable them.

I bet it's those damned Amish again.

3 churches and 3 hotels, 3 bombs was also disarmed across kollupitiya, katunayaka and viharamahadevi park

This is horrible 😟

Why am I not surprised?

CNN is the promoter for this behavior.

Why he did not live stream it lol

Let me guess what wonder religion is responsible of this?

Seems suspicious. Churches are suddenly burning all over the world near Easter. Radical jihadists are at it again. They consider it an act of terror to find bacon on the steps of their mosques but expect Christians to be OK with losing their churches to arson, bonmbs, etc.

cnn, say it.. Muslim terrorism!!

Just imagine how peaceful the world would be without religion. How great it could be.

Religion of Peace!

Think twice before taking the fatal step.

The New Zealand PM wants to know what is the national costume of Sri Lanka

The Holy Wat will come again and the Muslim’s will loose.

Can't really say much, 'sending prayers' only goes so far.. Why people want to attack others for whatever magic man they believe in is beyond me.. Humans are not the greatest. Hope the families can find some peace. Hope the purps get murdered

'Some people made some really loud noises'

I would like to see how you cover this compare to New Zealand mosque.

Some people did something

Cowards

What is happening to us ? 💔 Thoughts and Prayers !

Christianity is the only major religion of world that has done something good for the society by providing access to English education. Strongly condemn the heinous attack of Christians during the Easter.

How much coverage will this recieve vs the New Zealand attack?

At long last. Good morning.

Shocking ,condemn it.

despicable crime

SriLanka

Lilporkch0p Christianity is under attack all over the world. But Trudeau is worried about Islamophobia.

Roman empire need to come back. Both media's are helping to kill Christians around the world, this year alone more than 1000 Christians has been killed in Nigeria. If you speak against the murderers CNN and UN will brand you racist

This world is crazy, really. Sometimes just feel so sad, why human are killing each others?

😭🙏🏻

Christians, Muslims, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists, etc. can live together in harmony. I know this as an Atheist Hispanic living in California. Don't let anyone divide us.

Hey IlhanMN “some people are doing something”

damn so sad

Thoughts and prayers?

Disgusting

So... some people did some stuff... right, IlhanMN and RashidaTlaib ?

Christianity is under attack. Anyone who denies this lives under a rock!

ShinyMendis damn, that’s sad 😕

Whosoever has done is atleast not human, he is definitely beast. Probably Jewish of Israel has done. As they're doing countless cruelty on Palestine. No-one except Jewish can not done such heinous attacks.

This is sad 😔😔😔

恐怖穆斯林

Probably construction workers, no computer glitch, no wait it’s started at the top of the building. No wait, what? You’re suggesting it might be terrorism? Outrage! This is CNN

It's amazing how different time zones work. What a intelligent God.

Russia looking into this. Not happy.

Wow. Surprised you reported it since you are so anti Christian.

Sad! Stay Safe !

Another good example of do not trust the West. West only brings death and chaos to your country in the name of democracy. It is China to bring peace and prosperity and help Sri Lanka be tough against Tamil. China creates debt crisis? What a bullshit and rumor report.

【极端穆斯林恐怖分子】 【极端伊斯兰☪︎恐怖分子】

Islam is peaceful religion

just why are people doing this.... this is so sad😪

Trump's fault?

Who else is thinking the Notre Dame Fire is looking more suspicious?

This is not a Race or Religious thing... I'm Sri Lankan... They are trying to divide us... We are proud of our Multi Cultural heritage...

Im sure cnn fake news will hardly cover this. If they do they will say it was an unidenifiable group responsible. News censorship must end.

Here we go

Why will this not get the same attention as the attack on the mosque in New Zealand?

This terrorist attack must be organized by the West backed “Tiger” groups. May peace and prosperity in this land.

💩news😂

Not discussing various problems one problems alone can be better throughout the great country the cost shown are the same alreadt know

WTF?! Is wrong with people?! Why the hell are they attacking people at church or at any place of worship. Seriously, this is horrible.

Absolutely devastating. Utterly senseless. Lord, have mercy...

That’s so sad!!!

buddist asssholes

Waiting for the outrage from CNN over the killing of Christians in their place of worship.
