Motive

Currently 3 motives are listed on the page: Islamic extremism, Islamic terrorism and Anti-Christian sentiment. I took out Islamic terrorism as a motive since Islamic extremism is already there, but I have been disputed on this and it was put back as a motive. Let me know if both should be listed as motives, or if just one belongs there, and which one. Thanks. Genberg47 (talk) 02:36, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

Was it a response to the Christchurch mosque shootings that occurred in the previous month?

I saw a video of the perpetrator, Zahran Hashim, stating that Muslims were shot and killed in a mosque in New Zealand (with subtitles), in reference to Christchurch mosque shootings. While I don’t have the reference now, do you believe this is enough proof? TheLibyanGuy (talk) 12:31, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
