Tough times

The suffering of ordinary people from the abominable bomb blasts is heartrending. I am so utterly saddened by this cruel act that I cannot even bring myself to respond to the speculations on the identity of the perpetrators. The need of the hour is to help the victims and render them support in rebuilding their lives. It is also equally important to prevent further atrocities. If reiterating that Muslims do not support this violence helps in doing that, I readily do so.
