After 28 March 1973, as a result of an international terrorist attack against the United States or a foreign nation friendly to the United States, recognized as such an attack by the Secretary of the Army, or jointly by the Secretaries of the separate armed services concerned if persons from more than one service are wounded in the attack.

Lifted from your source.

So you, along with this administration, don't believe this was a terrorist attack either?

Which this wasn't.

As I said, a new medal needs to be created and awarded to those who are injured or killed in this type of attack. The Purple Heart is inappropriate in this instance.
