Thanks for posting this, Melian. It’s very disturbing.
I had just finished reading a Breitbart London article on Twittter (@BreitbartLondon) that touched on his fixation to avenge attacks in Europe perpetrated by Muslims.
Excerpt From Breitbart
“During his unprecedented, live-streamed shooting spree Friday in Christchurch, Tarrant exposed his apparent fascination with the religious conflicts in Europe and the Balkans – a volatile region that has been the site of some of Europe’s most violent clashes.
Tarrant’s soundtrack as he drove to the Christchurch mosque included a nationalist Serb song from the 1992-95 Bosnian war that tore apart Yugoslavia. The song glorifies Serbian fighters and former Bosnian Serb political leader Radovan Karadzic – the man jailed at the United Nations war crimes tribunal in The Hague for genocide and other war crimes against Bosnian Muslims.
Tarrant’s rifles contained the names of legendary Serbs and Montenegrins who fought against the 500-year-rule of the Muslim Ottomans in the Balkans, written in the Cyrillic alphabet used by the two Orthodox Christian nations.
In a 74-page manifesto that he posted on social media, Tarrant said he was a white supremacist who was out to avenge attacks in Europe perpetrated by Muslims.”

That is interesting. Tarrant was a real grab bag of grudges...kind of like slinging all the stereotypes to see which headline sticks.
