If I killed a million embryos while attempting to clone myself, am I a murderer?

I know as a scientist that cloning a human is possible but incredibly hard to do. I know it would involve many thousands of embryos, most of which would not implant in a uterus or would die in development or maybe even shortly after birth. Some would then linger on and develop language and play with toys before dying some horrible unseen death because a heart valve didn't close or something. My question is this: If I did this work myself to embryos that ARE me, am I a muderer?

I cannot say anything about this.

I think you would be not the murderer, because you have done it during experimentation.
