First, once again the intelligence community
(particularly in Europe) have been caught flatfooted and the internal political policies have lenient, permissive, merciful, and tolerant of the Muslim communities for the fear that it would trigger jihadist violence by those radicalized.
It is a fear of retaliation
(both held within the government levels and within the general population) and a type of coercion.
While jihadist violence was more closely associated with mass casualty bombings – such as the ones in New York, Madrid and London – Islamist, jihadist, insurgents, and smaller terrorist threats employ a much greater variety of tactics, ranging from classical terrorism to coordinated conventional operations. Attacks like serious multiple detention ‘bombings’, small unit/cellular massacres in the form of shootings, ambushes, and attacks directed at very soft open access areas, are reflecting the exploitation emphasis on tolerant nations that want to avoid opening a confrontation internal security threats from all sources of radicalized Muslims.

Fox news reports that at least one of the murderers last night was a syrian "refugee"
(COMMENT)
The association of the threat with Islamic extremist has a secondary danger beyond the slaughter and indiscriminate murder and airline bombings; --- inducement to trick the target government into overreacting in ways that ultimately serve the terrorists’ interests. Such objectives
(by DAESH and other major terrorist outlets) want the reaction to trigger an adverse response by non-radicalized and non-extremist community muslims.
And, of course, there will be opportunities to spread recriminations
(by unscrupulous characters); the most common of which is to blame Israel
(and --- naturally --- the US) is the proximate cause for the resurgence of such terrorism. The intent being that the French and Parisians will blame the US and Israel more for the losses and impact THEN the actual radicalized Islamic extremist the carried out the attack. This is simply to be expected and not really worth of much discussion. You either understand the free will and self-determination of the perpetrators --- or you do not.
Most Respectfully,
