From the BBC Link -

The driver emerged holding what appeared to be two handguns and made a statement "consistent with a terror attack" before being shot in the abdomen by a police officer stationed near the scene, he added.

"A statement consistent with a terror attack"? But I guess we can't know what the statement is because...reasons?

"Aloha Snackbar!"
BBC seems to be trying not to call it another Islam inspired attack.

But that's what it is, and what was said.

Right. But why hide it is the question. And the answer is clear.

I am glad they got him alive.
He wanted to die, so I hope he lives a long time.

It would still be too good for him though. He won't get the kind of treatment he has earned.
