greenwald is believable, imo:

"...Politicians and activists should stop ratifying the fiction that Omar Mateen was motivated
by anti-LGBT hatred. It dishonors the victims and obscures the real motive.

On the fifth anniversary of the PULSE nightclub massacre in Orlando, numerous senators, politicians
and activist groups commemorated that tragic event by propagating an absolute falsehood: namely,
that the shooter, Omar Mateen, was motivated by anti-LGBT animus. The evidence is definitive and
conclusive that this is false — Mateen, like so many others who committed similar acts of
violence, was motivated by rage over President Obama's bombing campaigns in Syria, Iraq and
Afghanistan, and chose PULSE at random without even knowing it was a gay club — yet this
media-consecrated lie continues to fester...

In his first call with 911 while inside PULSE, this is what he said about why he was killing people:
Because you have to tell America to stop bombing Syria and Iraq. They are killing a lot of innocent people. What am I to do here when my people are getting killed over there. … You need to stop the U.S. airstrikes. They need to stop the U.S. airstrikes, OK? . … This went down, a lot of innocent women and children are getting killed in Syria and Iraq and Afghanistan, OK? … The airstrikes need to stop and stop collaborating with Russia. OK?
