360 killed in terrorist blasts targeting Easter in Sri Lanka

@Nein @Avicenna @Desert Fox

Sri Lankan official says this is related to the NZ mosque attack. I really want to know are there people in our community who think like this? What did Sri Lankan people do to them? How in the world they think attacking worshippers in place of worship or civilian areas is Islamically justified ? We have no concept of revenge in Islam. Eye for eye is only for domestic crimes. And that was replaced with Sharia later on.

I refuse to accept this as 'revenge' and those misguided people are no heroes. And I agree with your post @Desert Fox , lots of Muslims aren't practicing and how illogical thought process. To think its okay to target innocent people who are not related to the NZ attack in any way.

My condolences to Sri Lankan people, they are good and educated people, met many of them in Saudi Arabia. This is sad to see and this is a despicable act.

My solution every khawarij terrorist and preacher should be shot.

Start with the preachers first. They are the ones who instigate it none of them would do it all they do is recruit foolish youths to do their bidding.

As Muslims we failed our youth we pushed them aside rather than helping them hence why the internet became their home.

what is the conspiracy theory I am peddling please clarify so that I can respond ? However, I see this as an effort to shut me down, by projecting my views as sympathizing extremists, insensitive , non Tamil etc.

I am picking out the loopholes in the SL official statement. If you need to be angry, direct it towards your govt's intel failure.

Now you are "finding loopholes" eh? You f*cking animal was ignoring the deaths of Muslims and Buddhists in the attacks and trying to show it as a incident "beneficial" to a single community. Even sub-human is not enough to describe low lives like you

The attacks were planned earlier than Christchurch attacks and the NZ attacker was an atheist and had no religious motive. The attack was motivated by White Nationalism which has zero relevance to SL.

A lot of steps need to be taken, first and foremost mosques in non -Muslim majority nations need to educate people that they should not be involved in any hostilities especially when there is a functioning state which protects everyone. And teach them that violence on their part is forbidden completely. Also Muslims should report to local authorities any figures doing hate speech or irrational speech or dehumanization of non-Muslims. And let make it clear to Muslim viewers of the forum living in the West or other nations with non-Muslim majoritys, you are not to get yourself involved in political disputes in this manner at any time. Stop worrying about the middle east the people there will take care of themselves and politics is complicated there.

It takes time for region like ME to see freedoms and prosperity. And another problem I see is fake news/photos being shared on internet. Lots of twitter/FB pages publish fake photos of stuff they claim is massacre of Muslims in so and so place. And other way around there are people who post fakes news/photos of stuff they claim is Muslim massacre of Christians. FB and Twitter need to get their shit together and ban these people posting ridiculous fake news just for hits or to spread more hate. Only reputable sources should be taken seriously.

Thanks for the info, was it group of Sri Lankan individuals and is there reason for the attacks?

The problem is when Muslims see the suffering Muslims in Syria, Yemen and other countries. To them they have to do something which leads to them travel and join these groups.

Dont forget how Isis conned lots of Muslims by proclaiming itself a caliphate which to led many travelling there only to find out they are not living in a caliphate but have become footsoldiers or cannon fodder for the group.

Isis, al qaeda and other extremist groups including neo nazis and the far right all feed on the internet they mainly target broken families and boys or girls who have lost their way in life and society.

It is a very strange thing that such kind of "revenge" or "retribution", which essentially implies that the innocent and unrelated people are targeted and inflicted upon, for the crimes or wrongs of the others, owing to some sort of imaginary associations and linkages (religious, racial, ethnic, ideological), is a very common human phenomenon, since ancient times. Obviously, no religion, or for that matter, common ethics, can allow it. But, still, it is widely practiced and it is very easy to brainwash people, on this account.

Think about it. It has very wide implications. These imaginary associations, also, often translate space and time, in a very illogical and irrational manner.

Both comments were made on two separate threads, reacting on two separate events; so your comment may be generally right but inappropriate on this particular post.

PS- I still have firm belief that only terror can fight a terror, nothing else.

Well. "only terror can fight a terror" can also be rephrased as "terror breads terror".

They are local but believed to have links to foreigners. A Syrian has been arrested and according to @DarkSeid Pakistanis and Indians as well indicating a regional network.

It has less to do with sympathy with the suffering. The radical Mullahs stroke the ego of youth who naturally have goals of achieving great feats. They fill their minds with fantasies of building a massive global Islamic Caliphate. ISIS members doesn't give a sh*t about the Muslims they kill to build the Caliphate they care about building their fantasy

As a matter of fact in most of the cases terror breeds only subjugation. That's why terror has been such a famous and vastly used tool since millennia.
Reason why I am advocating for adapting a new approach to tackle terrorism.

It has been confirmed that isis was behind the attack. I am pretty sure Sri Lankan Muslims carried out the attack. Muslims of Sri Lanka are becoming extremist day by day. Although they are a minority, they are still destroying Buddhist temples and historical sites. Muslims of Sri Lanka should receive the same fate as the Muslims of Burma. It's time for the world Buddhist community to identify their enemies and hunt them wherever possible just like Burma did.

I am not questioning your proposed method for combating "Terrorism". But the tool of "Terrorism", to subjugate and subdue people, has been used, since ancient times and it is not a new phenomenon, as such; though its forms and formats may have changed over times.

He always keeps it, at an accessible distance.
