Unfortunately- this will be 1 day news and then forgotten

That is the level of hate we are living in the world that not even in church we are safe.

What is wrong with this world

Happy Easter from the Religion of Peace

This is one killing too many even at this season but i do wonder how the perpetuator of the act can stand back and still see themselves as humans if they have so much hatred for humanity.

Easter Day was chosen because Churches would be packed with devotees so that the number of casualties would be in high numbers. Such is the sadistic thinking of these Islamic fundamentalist groups.

This is so absolutely horrible. I just can’t comprehend what the point of senseless killing is. Just let people believe in whatever religion they want to believe in.

Damn!!! 💔 💔 💔

Why lord why are human so wicked to each others

Another electrical fault.

May your souls rest in peace. May God punish the evil.

I wonder who did it?

let's Pray for Sri Lanka

There is no religion of terrorists. The only religion of terrorist is to kill innocent peoples on theri holy places... SriLankaBlast

This is bad

Not to sound unsympathetic, but there have been floods in Mozambique, Malawi and Zimbabwe... Where's that story?

Stay strong, Sri Lanka :(

Now, the bosses of global terror are watching the tragedy from the luxurious cave, with cigars and whiskeys in hand. The terror organizations are different but the boss is the same global boss. Wake up humanity!!

Religion of pieces again.

ramyeonduo Please pray for our country...😭

This is just so damn ridiculous. Why are you messing with people who are just trying to live their life. Evil!!

Horrific! SriLankaBlast ColomboBlast satishacharya

Terrorist attacks

So sad🙁

ZIONIST VS THE WORLD via 4noatsent

This will be covered for half a day, because it does not meet the criteria for white nationalism running wild, 99% of terror in the world is committed by the same sick bastards that have been doing it for years. Turn on a cop drama and it’s all white nationalism. CNN complicit!!

Suicide is strictly prohibited in Islam. See, Qur'an 17:31; 4:29. FakeNews

Terrorism will not stop unless and until the Wahhabism gets eradicated، Wahhabism is the radical Islamic way of the Saudi regime ، so this world will not enjoy peace as this regime exists

Pray for Sri Lanka 🇱🇰

The devil is on the move and has always been. Anything that is good, evil hates. Nothing will change in this world because some people won't. Lord, I pray for uplifting in times such as this. SirLanka

Coming soon to Minnesota I'll bet

My God!!

Where are all “Human beings”? (इंसानانسان) Every day I see hyphenated people such as conservatives, liberals, religious, black, white, poor, elite etc but no humans, unfortunately!

People need to know better this is a Religious weekend and the Opposition is at work! Pleople in places like this should celebrate at home...

I think this is fake news the people do not look trauma they smile and casual I think this is fake made up stories

MSM and MSNBC & sh1thole network have been spruiking lies for the last three years. Repeating lies and nausium dies not make it true. A lie is lie is a lie. End of story. They should apologise but won't as then would have to admit they were telling lies.

Must be Easter wishes from the religion of peace to the Christians of the world? LET GOD ARISE AND HIS ENEMIES BE SCATTERED! PRAISE YOUR HOLY NAME LORD JESUS MOST HIGH GOD! FOREVER IS YOUR KINGDOM, ETERNITY IS YOURS, YOU ARE CLOTHED IN MAJESTY PRECIOUS FATHER!

cnni and there's no coverage on your Indian feed?!

Why are people so crazy..how can one see a victory in such occasion, it's so sad..

Sad to hear God bless the departed souls and heal the wounds of the loved ones who are in grieve and pain at the loss GOD BLESS you all

Where are you jacindaardern

Some political scavengers In Sri Lanka no sooner gone into full gear picturing the importance of some persons electing in to power. Does it say on not an epitome of evidence that this is an act of obnoxious political terrorism ?

This is horrible... That's.. That's all I can come up with. 😞

Heartbreaking SriLanka Colombo

I believe that this might be the revenge that ISIS announced for Christchurch, I hope it‘s not.

Attacks that have no place in our world, their existence will not stop anyone from moving forward. We as a world are stronger.

Violence, when will it end?
