It would seem that apart from the Daily Mail, most other outlets seem to be keeping a low profile over this.
It couldn't be because some foreign intelligence agency is pointing it's finger at it being a Muslim attack?
/// A foreign intelligence agency has reported that the NTJ (National Thowheeth Jama'ath) is planning to carry out suicide attacks targeting prominent churches as well as the Indian high commission in Colombo,' said the alert. ///
/// The NTJ is a radical Muslim group in Sri Lanka that came to notice last year when it was linked to the vandalisation of Buddhist statues. ///

I think all sense of decorum was extinguished when AOG saw fit to highlight it was Christians who were attacked, in the OP. It is, of course, largely accurate but his choice to highlight the fact is typical of him adding little barbs into his posts which are intended to herd the thread in a certain direction.
'standard' as the kids say.

The BBC has headlined this atrocity and mentions a possible ISS link BBC News - Sri Lanka explosions: 137 killed as churches and hotels targeted

Read the Mail's headline.
/// Suicide bombers kill more than 156 people and hurt 400 in 'TARGETED ATTACK ON CHRISTIANS' ///
/// Lose what? My pointing out that AOG has posted another diliberately 'loaded' thread in order to aire his skewed view of the world? ///
How on Earth is my tread a deliberately loaded thread?
So anyone who happens to post on breaking news, are airing their skewed view of the world?

/// The bbc did a breaking news early this morning ///
Yes you are quite correct and here it is, although now updated:
It would seem that the BBC are not ready to point the finger:
/// No group has yet said it was responsible ///
/// It was a well-planned, co-ordinated attack but I spoke to the security chief who was there and officials believe it's too early to say who is behind it. ///
And yet they are very keen to print this:
/// In the years since the end of Sri Lanka's civil war in 2009, there has been some sporadic violence, with members of the majority Buddhist Sinhala community attacking mosques and Muslim-owned properties. That led to a state of emergency being declared in March 2018. ///
