Original Note:
The perpetrator was Muslim and targeted a Christian crowd. While he had made some apparently Islamophobic comments, that is most likely a deceptive cover for his plans, which is a practice (taqiyya) prescribed in Islam. He had also expressed support for Hamas. https://x.com/VividProwess/status/1870371717643727247
