Was this mans attack politically motivated? (I genuinely know little about it).
Less Than 2 Percent Of Terrorist Attacks In The E.U. Are Religiously Motivated.
The murdering spree by two gunmen on the offices of a French satirical magazine have incited horror across the world. That’s completely justified. But what’s been lost in the mass outpourings of solidarity and condemnations of barbarity is the fact that so few of the terrorist attacks carried out in European Union countries are related to Islamist militancy. In fact, in the last five year, less than 2 percent of all terrorist attacks in the E.U. have been “religiously motivated."
In 2013, there were 152 terrorist attacks in the EU. Two of them were “religiously motivated." In 2012, there were 219 terrorist attacks in EU countries, six of them were “religiously motivated."
In 2011, not one of the 174 terrorist attacks in EU countries in 2011 were “affiliated or inspired" by terrorist organizations. 2010, 249 terrorist attacks, three of them were considered by Europol to be “Islamist." In 2009, of 294 terrorist attacks, only one was related to Islamist militancy – though Europol added the caveat, “Islamist terrorists still aim to cause mass casualties."
The vast majority of terrorist attacks in E.U. countries have for years been perpetrated by separatist organizations.
Of 152 terrorist attacks in 2013, 84 of were motivated by ethno-nationalist or separatist beliefs. That’s more than 55 percent. That’s down from 76 percent the year before. While the report notes this decline, it also states that a number of separatist groups are showing “greater sophistication, incremental learning and lethal intent."
Religious motivations makes up just a slightly larger portion of terrorist attacks in the U.S.
Islamist militants lag far behind other groups when it comes to carrying out terrorist attacks in the U.S. too. According to FBI data compiled by the Princeton University’s Loon Watch, Islamist extremists were responsible for just 6 percent of terrorist attacks between 1980 and 2005 — falling behind Latino groups, Extreme left-wing groups, and Jewish extremists.
Charles Kurzman, a sociology professor at the University of North Carolina, has called Muslim Americans “a minuscule threat to public safety."
In his most recent report tracking Islamist militancy in America, he included this startling figure. “The United States suffered approximately 14,000 murders in 2013. Since 9/11, Muslim-American terrorism has claimed 37 lives in the United States, out of more than 190,000 murders during this period."
Despite the low frequency of Islamist militant attacks, fears around them are continually stokes by politicians, law enforcement officials, and even the media which tends to highlight religiously-motivated attacks over political or environmental ones.
“These incidents get much more attention because of the rhetoric of Islamist extremism that’s used," Ken Sofer, Associate Director for National Security and International Policy at Center for American Progress told ThinkProgress in a phone interview.
“People have a desire to explain [these incidents] as some sort of connected phenomenon," he says, “but what caused an individual to [commit acts of terrorism] is so different in each scenario."
Sofer adds that by conflating different incidents in different countries, the threat of Islamist violence seem larger than it is.

What a lot of people have missed here is that if this guy was a muslim, he would have been called a terrorist first. To suggest otherwise is nonsense.
____________________________________
Correct, this is type of stereotyping is build into the human mind though.
I believe something like 90% of terror attacks are committed by Muslim folk, meaning 9/10 times a terror attack is Islam related.
Does this mean all Muslims are terrorists? No.
The difference between a mass homicide like this and a terror attack is that one has political aims and the other does not.

Thats the biggest load of (I wish I could swear but it's Ramadan and I'm trying to be better than that)

Fortunately Europe and America see very few terror attacks, it's an every day thing in Africa and the M.E

you've got to be pretty damn stupid to think you will go to paradise for committing Murder
Thats because it is only looking at half of the Europol reports. There were more convictions for religiously inspired terrorism offences everywhere apart from Spain and France where it was separatist by a mile. Right wing was nowhere near either of them.
I agree with your sentiment completely, but I'm not keen on the use of the word factually without putting them into their proper context.

Those guys are nutters. That is it. It is not their religion that makes them kill, it is because they are psychos.
If it was the religion, you would have a far greater number of the adherents to that faith involved in the killing.
For me, the scariest terrorists are the ones who murder people under the guise of "liberation" and democracy whilst stealing their resources because they believe their way of life is superior to everyone elses.

What are you talking about now precious? dont try and widen the discussion - I asked you if the people that were leaving Britan to join IS were also not muslims and you've spat the dummy out get over it.....
It's interesting that when discussing terrorism and 'who does most', no one seems to mention state terrorism committed (and supported) but the US, the UK, Israel etc...
The OP id correct in his analysis, except that this happens every day. When a muslim is suspected of committing the crime, it is by default referred to or speculated as being 'terrorism'. By the same token, try and find a single reference to Israeli terrorism, or US/British terrorism in the corporate press or broadcast media.
These acts, which are unquestionably terrorism (by our own standards), are by default called something else - something benign and well meaning, at worst a 'mistake', much in the same way that 'their' actions are by default, 'terrorism'.
