It could possibly be anti- military. There is very strong anti war feeling among the French.
The Islamic terrorist hypothesis is also possible, as all the fallen were members if the paratrooper unit fighting in Afghanistan.

I wonder if the killer is Basque.
I don’t have any evidence at all to support this. It is just that those towns are all stamping grounds for Basque militants. And a Basque can always rely upon the suppport of their own community, no matter what they might have done. They melt back into their border villages, and sometimes cross the border to Spain.
