At conception the subtle winds, female and male join forming all the necessary building blocks (in the case mankind) all the building blocks of human rebirth. Throughout life our bodies are in a constant flux of change, from conception until breath goes out and doesn't come back in, our subtle levels of consciousness enters the bardo states and as the case maybe according to our karma take rebirth.
Therefore according to ones karma and if conception is human embryo, then human, taking human life is usually called murder, no different than Tarrant engaged in. Is murder...
A lot of issues are surfacing I think. The extent of Right Wing groups around the globe to my mind displays lot division right across the planet, While clearly a generally sought safety away from the middle east and African conflicts, a lot of Imam's told their flocks to go west/forth and multiply. It is why Australia did its best to stamp out the often fatal illegal boats from heading this way. At an early stage the Chinese Government threatened John Howard they would flood Australia with Chinese boat people, which hasn't materialized. Just been reading interesting article in NZ news that is lot more extensive than following shortened copy:
In the aftermath of the Christchurch attacks, the Mongrel Mob was criticised for having used sieg heil slogans and swastikas. The Waikato chapter stopped the practice four years ago.
The gang was also criticised for offering to provide security around mosques at services marking the death of 50 Muslims in the Christchurch terror attack. This was a crude PR ploy and gang members would turn in their own guns if they were genuine, one commentator suggested.
New Zealand’s image as a peaceful nation isolated from the world’s problems was shaken by the recent Christchurch terrorist attacks, but it appears that the country’s response has had an unexpected effect: More people than usual have said they want to move there.
In addition to the surge of inquiries from Americans, there was a big boost in registrations from people in predominantly Muslim countries. People from Pakistan — where nine of the victims were from — made 333 registrations after the attack, compared with 65 in the 10 days before it. People in Malaysia made 165 applications, compared with 67 in the period leading up to the attack.

Russian banks join Chinese alternative to SWIFT payment system
Several Russian banks have joined the China International Payments System (CIPS), to ease operations between the two countries, according to a senior official at the Central Bank of Russia (CBR).
Yes I agree however that's the same religion that NZ young people radicalized by a Christchurch Imam likely the one that stood in NZ House of Parliament addressing the people of NZ teaches. The hijab wearing NZ prime minister was hugging and allowing a calling to prayers by. Same religion Saudi young ladies are fleeing, religions version mainstream Indonesians follow.
Having said that I don't condone what Brendon Tarrant did, nor have I supported Bush, Blair, Howard and anybody else that attacked and slaughtered over a million mostly unarmed defenseless Muslims either.
At some stage some commonsense needs to prevail...
This will be interesting story to follow, finally truth has an oppertunity to come to the front. MH17 in real time posts are still available on this site:

Netanyahu is being charged by the Israeli prosecutor.
Though I understand people of Gaza Strip elected to pursue path of violence Netanyahu's days are numbered partly because he is accursed that on numinous occasions he has engaged in crimes against humanity. He deliberately broke the Ahimsa agreement by having three west bank Palestinian kids shot (dead). He is a right wing lunatic attempting to start a major war against Muslims it the region including against Iran.

24 Mar, 2019 18:40 US airstrikes kill a dozen Afghan civilians, as battle with Taliban heats up – report
Afghan President Ashraf Ghani said in January that around 45,000 Afghan security personnel have been killed since he took office in September 2014, roughly 849 per month. Suicide attacks by Taliban fighters and aerial attacks from US and coalition forces also killed more Afghan civilians in 2018 than in any other year since the US invasion in 2001, the UN Assistance Mission in Afghanistan revealed last month.
Pakistan has deployed more Chinese medium-range air defense missiles across several cities and military bases, to prevent any intrusions after the Indian Air Force carried out cross-border anti-terrorist strikes last month.

Italian Deputy Prime Minister Luigi Di Maio said the deals were worth an initial 2.5 billion euros but had a potential value of 20 billion.
Its far to early to cast judgment nobody has seriously investigated it thus far. Emotionally driven knee jerks almost always prove to be wrong, until full investigation has occurred i think better to keep open mind. Unchecked information is still surfacing, and the cheap shots by people to lazy to do any meaningful investigations of there own go no where, you surely know that. Brendon Tarrant obtained his category A licence in November 2017 and started buying firearms the next month. (*one year) A Turkish official said initial checks found that Brenton Tarrant, 28, went to Turkey twice in 2016, from March 17 to 20 and from September 13 to October 25.

NZ Police said a person climbed over a fence around the airfield on Sunday afternoon and left a black laptop bag and a note.
Spanish authorities have confirmed they are investigating a reported attack on the North Korean Embassy in Madrid, a spokesperson for Spain's National Police told CNN. The alleged incident, which was reported to have taken place on February 22, was carried out by 10 people carrying fake firearms who entered the compound and interrogated and beat up people inside, according to the Spanish newspaper
While details are thin, it appears likely that intelligence services were involved
Third, until late 2017 the North Korean embassy in Spain was headed by Kim Hyok Chol, a North Korean diplomat who since early 2019 has been in charge of negotiations with the U.S. on the nuclear issues — serving, essentially, as a counterpart to Stephen Biegun.
According to reports by El Pais and El Confidencial, two Spanish news outlets, local police have come to suspect that the embassy attack was somehow linked to the CIA.
The alleged involvement of men with ties to the CIA was first reported in the Spanish daily El Pais. According to El Pais‘ sources, the men that attacked the embassy may have been looking for information on North Korean diplomat Kim Hyok-chol, who had served as North Korea’s ambassador to Spain until he was expelled in 2017. Kim has also been one of the leading officials involved in the negotiations with the U.S. over the last year. What happened?
Local media reports that on the afternoon of 22 February, a group of 10 people broke into North Korea's embassy, north-west of the Spanish capital's centre.
According to El Confidencial (in Spanish), the assailants gagged and tied up staff members, and took a number of computers.
One woman managed to get free, escaping through a second floor window and screaming for help. Concerned neighbours quickly called the police.
But when officers arrived they were greeted by an Asian man at the door who reassured them that all was well and nothing had happened.
Minutes later, the man and the other attackers sped away from the embassy at full speed in two North Korean diplomatic vehicles.
I understand what you are saying, but I think you are missing context that it was written as I think you'll find the page (only part posted here) is trying to convey, "that Brendon Tarrant had traveled all over the world while somehow while doing that he collected military-grade firearms and was stockpiling them in New Zealand. The writer went to say we are not supposed to know that part of the story."! In other words suggested evidence elsewhere, which wouldn't surprise me.
I don't know that the statement has any bases is factual or not. Other aspect they raised the NZ Stuff News reporting of young christians converting at same mosque then getting killed in Yemen..interesting.
I posted the above post in part because I had already determined that Brendon Tarrant, not having military training and without support, could not have made IED's and put together that sought of attack. Also the image of him in hand cuffs displaying a bulls-eye jester, suggests he was communicating to someone. His travel dates indicate a very busy person who sent mail-outs to awful lot of people by the sounds of it after he had already lunched his attack. Seems all very unlikely and the above post raises some interesting points.

Make sure you guys guard your mind. What goes in, placed on your mind stream cannot be erased; when the conditions turn up the seeds of your tomorrows will ripen.

Post # 93 Western Europe trip, in late 2016, Tarrant visited Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Croatia, where he stopped by historic battle sites, Bulgarian Chief Prosecutor Sotir Tsatsarov told Reuters. He returned to the region in November 2018 to tour historic sites of Bulgaria, Romania and Hungary. Tarrant also visited Turkey "multiple times and spent an extended period of time in the country" His suspended Facebook page also showed a post from Pakistan in 2018
Post Fraser Anning thread #57 Brenton Tarrant purchased guns from Gun City the shops owner David Tipple said the alleged gunman bought four weapons and ammunition between December 2017 and March 2018.
“The MSSA, military-style automatic, reportedly used by the alleged gunman was not purchased from Gun City. Gun City did not sell him an MSSA, only A-category firearms
A-category weapons can be semi-automatic but limited to seven shots. Video of a gunman in one mosque showed a semi-automatic with a large magazine round.
Given Trade-Me has just now banned the sale of semi automatic weapons it sounds like he may have purchased a gun with big barrel magazine that could fire automatically and or he modified it.
