While referring to the NZ mosque victims as "Muslims" and the attack Islamophobic, they avoided using the term "Christian" this time around. 290 dead, 600 injured by Islamic suicide bombers on Christians.

did you know there are people who worship Easter? me neither!

That's because Christian Churches were bombed in Shri Lanka, and yes, they celebrate Easter.

acknowledging this as an attack on the "Christian community" might offend Muslims and left wing radicals, ya know?

That's right. Christians "celebrate" Easter. They do not "worship" Easter. They are Christians. Not "Easter worshippers". Just like Jews are Jews and not "Passover worshipers".

No one uses that terminology naturally because its inaccurate, yet prominent democrats and media all use the SAME terminology, just a coincidence. there's no agenda being cultivated here at all.

also notice Obama and Hillary include everyone as victims here by using "humanity" and "many faiths" to describe the victims? they were targeted for being CHRISTIANS! but the NZ victims were correctly described as the "Muslim Community"

how is it disrespectful? they are just acknowledging that the attack happened during a holiday services. if the NZ shooter had targeted worshippers during holiday services of course they’d have mentioned that as well.

Mentioned what? There was nothing mentioned.
They were called Easter worshippers.
If the NZ attack happened on a holiday they would have been called what? Hanukkah worshippers? Yom Kippur worshipers?
I think not.
