Massacring 49 worshipers in Christichurch, New Zealand’s Al Noor Mosque March 14, 28-year-old Brenton Tarrant [online name] proved that white nationalists are also cable of horrific terrorist acts. In the worst shooting in New Zealand history, Tarrant planned his attack carefully, before using two assault rifles and shotgun to mow down innocent worshipers, claiming he was avenging Islamic terrorist acts occurring around the globe. Tarrant was especially inspired by the white nationalist massacre of 77 children July 22, 2011 in Norway, where Anders Behring Breivik perpetrated the worst terrorist attack in Norway’s history. “We stand in solidarity with New Zealand,” said Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan, home of the Pakistan Taliban’s routine assaults on Pakistan’s civilian population. Khan said Tarrant’s attack was evidence of rising hostility toward Muslims around the globe.

Since Osama bin Laden hijacked and flew jetliners into the World Trade Center Twin Toward and Pentagon Sept. 11, 2011, terrorist bloodshed has run rampant around the globe. Khan’s correct in pointing out that most of the attacks on civilians stem from Muslims waging jihad on civilians or various Muslim sects, especially Sunni attacks on Shiite holy sites. President Donald Trump was asked today at an Oval Office veto ceremony over his Feb. 15 emergency border declaration whether he thought this showed the rise of white nationalism. Trump said “no” but it’s clear that the media narrative blames Trump for promoting the white nationalism, spurring psychos like Tarrant to lash out at Muslims in two New Zealand mosques. “It is clear that this can now only be described as a terrorist attack,” said New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, calling the incident “one of New Zealand’s darkest days.”

Calling it a terrorist attack doesn’t describe when a psychopath decides to commit mass murder, typically using semiautomatic firearms, only rarely, like white nationalist Timothy McVeigh who truck-bombed the Alfred P. Murrah Federal building April 19. 1995, killing 168 men, women and children. Tarrant, like McVeigh, subscribes to no religious ideology like radical Islam, only develops a twisted internal logic to justify mass murder. Tarrant left a 74-page rambling manifesto, typical of certain mass killers looking for some kind of philosophical justification for perpetrating mass violence. New Zealand law enforcement officials said Tarrant purchased his weapons legally, part of the 1.5 million gun owners in a 5 million population. Ardern promised that she would work with New Zealand’s parliament to tighten up the country’s gun laws allowing a lunatic like Tarrant to slip through the cracks.

New Zealand’s tragedy has already been exploited by left wing groups claiming the rise of white nationalism has been fueled by President Donald Trump. Heading into the 2020 election, it’s the perfect narrative to blame Trump for the New Zealand massacre or the one in Pittsburgh’s Tree of Life Synagogue Oct. 27, 2018 killing 11 worshipers. What the two mass killings have in common is a psychopath armed to the teeth with a twisted ideology to justify the mass killing. While it’s tempting to attribute New Zealand’s Al Noor Mosque massacre to rising anti-Islamic sentiment or Tree of Life shooting to growing anti-Semitism, the truth is sick psychopaths armed-to-the-teeth find twisted excuses for committing mass murder. “Extremist views have absolutely no place in New Zealand,” said Ardern, saying New Zealand welcomes immigrants of all faiths as long as they abide by the law.

U.S. government officials have a hard time accepting the fact that with so many guns in circulation, it’s hard for the police to keep lethal weapons out of the hands of the lunatic fringe. Tarrant clearly falls in that category, reading a few pages of his manifesto. Rambling about race wars sounds reminiscent of the late Charles Manson, whose bloody rampage Aug. 8-9, 1969 also carried a manifesto calling for a race war. Calling Trump as “symbol of white identity,” Tarrant revved up Trump’s critics, ready to blame him for every nut-job’s violence in the U.S. and around the globe. “A small group of people that have very, very serious problems,” Trump said today at his veto-signing ceremony. There are countless numbers of racists, anti-Semites and anti-Muslim types that don’t commit violence or mass murder. Mass killers have much in common when it comes to their psychopathic personalities.

Yesterday’s rampage shows eerie similarities to 64-year-old Stephen Paddock who barricaded himself Oct. 1, 2017 on the 14th floor of Mandalay Bay Hotel in Las Vegas, killing 58 concert goers from his suite’s window. Police found no manifesto from Paddock or any evidence of motive, despite the fact mass shooters have much in common. Tarrant rants-and-raves about being a fascist and racist, holding extreme views about the Second Amendment, Muslim immigration, terrorist attacks and the wealthiest one percent. Unlike Paddock, survivors are treated to Tarrant’s perverted manifesto, giving his twisted logic for committing mass murder. Only blind rage-and-revenge can fuel the kind of rampage that left 49 victims dead in New Zealand’s Al Noor Mosque. While there’s nothing wrong with tightening up gun laws, finding out who’s the next lunatic to go ballistic is no easy task for law enforcement.
