No, we're going to wring our hands, and pitifully cry "'why? Lets find out why this person did this then we can prevent future happenings."
Well,
I do think that actually what the guy did is far off from a muslim terrorist attack. And I do think that there are many muslim terrorist attacks. Just to show you that I will agree on _some_ of the things that you call muslim terrorist attacks (take 9/11), but not on others. It therefore doesn't mean that we have fundamentally different opinions. We do meet somewhere.

Just for the sake of argument, let us assume that we agree on classifying his action as "a terrorist attack on our soil by a muslim. By a muslim that betrayed his country for his faith."

Good. We have addressed it. What now? How do we stop the next thing like that? Certainly not by just repeating what you said. But we do have a little chance if we try to understand what happened, why it happened, and how we might stop it next time.
