BILLIONAIRE Mark Zuckerberg has spoken out against the "fear and distrust" spread by the recent wave of terror attacks and called for "love" to combat them.
The Facebook founder said atrocities in Belgium, Pakistan and Turkey were all designed to sow seeds of hatred between different communities.
He said: "Each of these attacks were carried out with a goal to spread fear and distrust, and turn members of a community against each other."
The "only sustainable way to fight back" against the sickening attacks is to "create a world" where everyone "feels cared for and loved", he added.
At least 70 people were killed and 300 injured when a Taliban splinter group detonated a bomb in a park while children were playing on Easter Sunday.
The militants said they deliberately targeted the Christian community in the attack, launched on the holiest day of the Christian calendar.
It came after Islamic State militants killed dozens more by attacking Brussels and Ankara, the Belgian and Turkish capitals respectively.
Facebook has been criticised for mistakenly asking users hundreds of miles away from the bombing in Lahore, Pakistan, if they were safe.
Mr Zuckerberg did not adress the criticised but explained why the Safety Check feature, first introduced in late 2014, had been turned on.
He said: "Over the last two months, we have activated Safety Check several times for acts of terror so people in the area can let their friends and loved ones know they're safe."

Perhaps Cuckerberg's own tribal homeland should demonstrate the Love Doctrine with all of their Palestinian neighbors. Seems like his tribe is always preaching with no effort at practicing what they preach.

This guy may be a real sharp techy, but otherwise, he is a colossal DUMBASS !!
He will only see reality when he, or some of his are injured / killed by ISIS.
I don't know what it is with these techy's. Most that I have ever known are in practical matters are DUMBASS beyond belief. Its like one side of their brain is jam packed, and the other side is completely vacant.

I recommend that the multi-billionaire free up some of his personal wealth to spread "love" around the world while backing his own ideas. He can personally distribute his contributions on the ground in both Iraq and Syria, especially where "love" is most needed.

It isn't just the techys. There are a hell of a lot of people in all walks of life who want to believe love is the cure for everything. Many of them were raised in unconditional love and softness and believe it should continue for a lifetime. Others want a substite for what they never got. Still others are religious nutcases who believe God or Jesus tells them to love everybody. Love does not work in dealing with psychopaths.
