If the attacks were perpetrated by Islamic extremists, then from their point of view, yes, these attacks are a form of punishment.
However, the response some religious people give is that it is a gross abuse of human free will. Freedom is seen as a good in itself and the costly price of this freedom is that people misuse it.

God is all good. He sets the standard for what is good and bad. He will always do the right thing. We don't get to decide what is right and what is wrong since we've all sinned.

Well for starters my religion has nothing against gays and consequently does not condone these actions because it goes against peace and many of my religion's teachings.

How do expect us to know? We are not God. God is the one who is all knowing and all good and all powerful.

What do you think?

That isn't palatable to most, and that's partly because it's not meant to be a theodicy. I believe Jesus' crucifixion is the hope of this world and the hope for any families grieving their loss. It's not a full answer, but if that's what you're looking for, good luck.
