[REAL COUNTESS]

Never understood or will understand how someone has so much hate for people to bomb a House of God with no regard for human life. All of this as a holy war and in Gods or Allah's name. These people if one can call them that, are really twisted. I would like to call them something else, but I better not. My prayers are with the victims of this attack.
