        Makes no sense to me. In under a month they scouted, designed and manufactured bombs, recruted and placed suicide bombers....oh and the fact that the government of Sri Lanka had Intel in January that this group was targeting churches....but hey keep the narrative going.. .

        "He did not provide evidence of explain the source of the information." Thank you for pointing this out. Looking forward to a deeper analysis of this spurious claim.

        Yes, it sounds bigger & more of an attack on Sri Lanka, not just on places of worship.
