From the images of terror in Sri Lanka remains a sequence of the film particularly. It is the recordings of the security camera in the Saint Sebastian Church in Negombo, just before the attack. Across the courtyard, a young bearded man, he wears a baseball cap and backpack. On the way to the Church, he pats a little girl, then he enters through the side entrance into the ship of the house of God. Seconds later, he blows in the air. With ice-cold Nonchalance of the perpetrators has been controlled, its goal is to discover no Hesitation, not the slightest uncertainty. It is as if he had rehearsed the perfidious the last Moment of his life, countless times, to is to perfectly disguise

This scene is just one of the many clues that show how minutely the series of attacks by Sri Lanka planned and executed. And the cold efficiency of killing that makes it to the families of the victims is now even more difficult to deal, cope with the loss. You do not understand the fact. The additional torment for them.

The eight bombers that bombed on Easter Sunday in the South Asian island state of churches and Hotels, and about 200 people in the death-cracks, could only come so far because the guards of the state had failed all along the line. Also, the more difficult the grief, because in a lot of the anger comes on those who might be able to save intervention and people – but it did not.

pictures: attacks in Sri Lanka

ten days before the attack, India had warned the security authorities of Sri Lanka; the danger was in the state apparatus is known, only that it, apparently, neither the President nor the Prime learned something. Two days after the massacre, the defense Minister was not afraid to say that you can’t do it anyway would have to protect all the churches. And with regards to the Hotels, so the need to take care of their own safety.

Certainly, no state in the world is able to protect his citizens, always and everywhere complete. However, the case of Sri Lanka, is a mystery. A state of the led for 30 years, a fierce civil war against one of the most brutal rebel armies in the world, the Tamil Tigers, and this finally won – ironically, this state should have forgotten within ten years, every defense? Doubt at the insistence of, and the suspicion that somewhere in the chain of the security apparatus information is deliberately being held back.

Why this happened, whether corruption or political intrigue in the game, these questions remain so far unanswered. You draw the gloomy picture of a state whose leading politicians, wedging himself fighting in the constant power and hardly the strength or the will have to fulfill your duties as a ruling. The duration of the crisis in Colombo has apparently created favorable conditions for the terrorist Plot.

Eight attackers, were sufficient to bring a multi-ethnic state with 20 million residents reeling.

The jihadis in Sri Lanka, were very probably supported from the outside, if not directed. The terrorist group Islamic state has lost territory in Iraq and Syria, but the destructive power of their ideology unfolds more effect. The IS and its regional satellites have created a branched cyber Empire, the message of Hatred and incitement of Violence via the Internet. Also, the networks still have enough money to have such a wide attack, as in South Asia.

Eight of the attackers were sufficient to bring a multi-ethnic state with 20 million residents reeling. You have not only killed, but with the fact poison in the society. The mutual mistrust between the religions. Suddenly every fear of the other has to grow, the risk of reprisals.

Some believe that the Islamist Terror of Colombo, was already an immediate retaliation for the attack on the mosques in Christchurch, new Zealand. That sounds obvious, but it is doubtful. Between the deeds of only five weeks, much too short to train so many suicide bombers, to procure the explosives and the targets to spy on. A great terror machinery, and time is needed. The mastermind of the mass murder in Sri Lanka is likely to have many months ago started to plan their perverse Mission.
