others.

Whilst the Dutch are referring to this incident as an act of terrorism, I do have to ask, has all the promotion of a western malaise of white racial hated -aka Islamophobia- over the attack in New Zealand resulted in this. A political and religious agenda I should add which has whilst having no problem painting all white people as intolerant racist bigots does exactly the opposite when the culprit isn't. Then we are told it is the work of a lone wolf, that the person has mental health issues and that the killers actions in no way represent (quite correctly) the majority of Muslims who live peacefully.
