Do you have any actual evidence that this was Islamist terrorism beyond your personal schema?

He only revealed it after the police had tased him. He wanted to be martyred. It's the same thing the attackers in 2017 did.

I don't see what the problem is with people assuming Islamic terrorism until further information comes out. Given the prominence of it as opposed to other forms of terror lately it's a reasonably safe assumption to make. Much like 100 years ago it would have been to suspect anarchist bombers. Or how when headlines read "evil empire invades small nation" it's fairly safe to assume the united states of america are the aggressor.

It's quite natural and reasonable to assume, when lacking information, the most obvious and likely to be the truth.
Purpelia does not reflect my actual world views. In fact, the vast majority of Purpelian cannon is meant to shock and thus deliberately insane. I just like playing with the idea of a country of madmen utterly convinced that everyone else are the barbarians. So play along or not but don't ever think it's for real.



The above post contains hyperbole, metaphoric language, embellishment and exaggeration. It may also include badly translated figures of speech and misused idioms. Analyze accordingly.

In other words we have no evidence that he's an Islamist terrorist and you're just assuming so for now because you want him to be an Islamist Terrorist.
