Terror it is. But... this doesn't look to be the work of an Islamo religious fanatic. Especially if the following is true:

“A senior law enforcement official speaking to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity said Tuesday a letter found near the scene of Saturday night's sniper shooting in Virginia suggested the killer wants several million dollars.”

Crime of passion? Doesn't add up - at least not yet. This guy seems to be an extreme version of the human garbage that parades for attention on shows like Jerry Springer and Maury Povitch. Only difference is this guy appears to have an above-average IQ and is a total sociopath with no concept of conscience.

Thank you for your post!

Perhaps you are right, I don't know. Some have said that because they didn't claim responsibility, it isn't a terrorist group. However, although Hamas, Hezbollah and Islamic Jihad (et al) are quick to claim responsibility, al Queda isn't.

Likewise, I could see where terrorists might demand ransom to acquire more targets or even to actually get the money (we've hit them in their pocketbook this past year.) But considering the discipline used to set up each kill and escape, I can't quite see them actually planning on making a "pickup." But that's just my two cents...
