When I first heard the news of the explosions at those buildings, my first thought, of course, was that it was a jihadist attack. But it wasn’t: it was a right-wing lunatic. It wasn’t jihad. It was a meaningless killing spree by a madman, like the ones at Columbine and Virginia Tech.
When a Muslim lunatic commits an act of murder like this it is part of a jihad and it is reflects on all Muslims everywhere. When an anti-Muslim lunatic does this he is a mad man who was acting completely on his own.
