Sri Lanka blames Islamic terrorists for Easter Sunday bombings

The New York Times and every other sharia-compliant mainstream media outlet censored and scrubbed the fact that the attackers were Muslims. Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton tweeted phony condolences, only calling the victims “Easter Worshipers” instead of Christians. The tweets by jihad-Reps Tlaib and Omar also handily failed to acknowledge that their coreligionists carried out these atrocities.

Only responding to Geller because this tweet is circulating in Sri Lankan circles on WhatsApp and Facebook (who probably have no idea who she is):

Nobody, including ISIS, has claimed the attack. Don’t listen to Geller on any topic. #SriLanka https://t.co/gWoAmOBTRn

Sri Lanka blames ISIS branch for Easter Sunday bombings

by Daniel Jativa | Washington Examiner April 22, 2019:

Sri Lankan authorities say that Islamic terrorists carried out the Easter Sunday bombings of churches and hotels that left nearly 300 people dead and another 500 wounded. Twenty-four suspects are now in custody.

Health minister Rajitha Senaratne said Monday that a preliminary examination pointed to National Thowheed Jamath, a local offshoot of ISIS, as being responsible for the deadly attacks. He said that although all the bombers were Sri Lankan, an international network was behind the bombings.

“We do not believe these attacks were carried out by a group of people who were confined to this country,” he told reporters. “There was an international network without which these attacks could not have succeeded.”

Three police officers searching for the attackers were killed in a raid at an apartment complex. Authorities also discovered 87 abandoned detonators at a bus stop in the Sri Lankan capital of Colombo.

The attacks targeted the island nation’s Christians, who make up just over 7% of the population, on their holiest day. Archbishop of Colombo Cardinal Malcolm Ranjith canceled all evening Easter services, and police forces have been posted at churches across the country.

National Thowheed Jamath has not claimed responsibility for the bombings.

The attacks, some of which appeared to be suicide bombings, targeted three luxury hotels and three churches just outside Colombo. The explosions mark the worst violence in the country since its protracted civil war ended a decade ago.

Sri Lanka has blocked major social media services, with authorities saying they want to curb the spread of misinformation.

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said in a statement Sunday that “several” U.S. citizens were among those killed in the attacks.

Don’t forget what Hussein and Hillary said about “Easter worshippers” here in the US, that they were “bitter clingers, hanging onto their religion and their guns”. Oh, and that we are “deplorables” as well……..

Demoncraps obviously, don’t like white people, don’t like their religion, don’t like their country and the only way they know to bring it down is by using the 45 Goals of Communism as their playbook.

They have committed many crimes of treason yet none have been HANGED for it. If you start hanging them this will stop.

Nothing worse for these communist then a noose around their neck to see that they cannot harm you anymore.

The left, meanwhile is trying to blame the “far-right” for reacting too strongly to the Easter bombings:

It seems that they really do tacitly support terrorism after all.
