Church Bombing in Philippines

Today, two bombs have killed at least 20 people in a Catholic church in the the southern Philippines injuring many others. Though the Philippines is a predominately Catholic nation, there is a large Muslim population in the Mindanao area.

Nobody has yet claimed responsibility, but all signs point to Abu Sayyaf, the Muslim separatist/terrorist group that has been wreaking havoc in the Mindanao region for decades.
