I think this is different, could be the beginning of a death spiral. Up until now there had been no violent attack on a group of Muslims. This will embolden the more radical ones, they WANT to be able to claim “Islam” is under attack. This will inflame the Jihadi’s, I expect an acceleration of attacks.

That’s a good point, one that I had not considered.
