May be this as a revenge attack for the NZ mosque attack.
They confirmed this.



So...they have committed an act of "revenge" on people that had nothing to do with the alleged wrong.

Look at the level of education in most muslim countries and look at how many of those muslim countries are mired in wars? You didn't think the war in Iraq was going to create a throng of orphans who can't be brainwashed to turn into religious zealots in the hand of those who have something to gain from it?
Seriously?? You are going to come onto a thread talking about the slaughter of hundreds of people (and the wounding of many hundreds more)..........all done in the name of Islam..........and start talking about how Muslims are the VICTIMS??? You're on the wrong thread, dude........

According to their theology if you are not part of them you are with the group that did the alleged wrong

Yes, all you have to say is you are a fellow Muslim and you will have the sympathy of the entire Islamic world and Western Leftists. In reality, Islam has always been primarely at war with itself, and takes breaks to expand and attack Hindus, Bhudists, Sikhs, Chirstians, Jews, Athiests, and any other people it comes in contact with.

Good point, but absolutey no non-Muslim is going to be able to do anything about it. It's up to people who identify as Muslims to fix it. In my my mind it would take a world wide Islamic reformation to happen, and I dont see it happening anytime soon.

Unfortunately it's a world wide issue, not just the middle East. It's not caused by Indians, Jews, Chinese, Philippinos, Australians, Russians or evil White men, as Islam deflectors and many western leftist like to say.

Sorry, my bad. Muslims can never be victims, you are right. Even after they were terrorised through proxy wars (weapons of mass destruction, Afghan proxy war with Russia) of course they can't be victims.


If majority is going to be content with the underlying rationale being Islam that's causing all these terror instances then you are simply fixated on a wrong root cause and as such will never remediate the issue. No one wants to ask the difficult questions, everyone wants an easy excuse which is the religion.


- Did you even ask why Sri Lanka was chosen to retaliate for frikking New Zealand's attack?
- Did you ask who is meant to gain from all this warfare?
- What do Muslims gain from this? More hatred for their religion? You really think most muslims would want that?
- Did anyone know that China has control of a key port in Sri Lanka?
- Did anyone know that China & India do not get along?
- Did anyone know that USA is not happy with China's increasing presence in that region?


Some food for thought, but nah that's too much work. I would rather blame Allah Snakbar for it, right?!

It doesn't matter what I believe I am not following the Holy Koran to the best of my ability. You might call their faith stupid but I give them the honor of believing what they say about what they believe in

You want to paint a picture that Islamic and Islamic rulers neither had a violent past or not they never invaded countries in the past and forcibly killed or converted them.
