The whole attack does just seem a little off. He planned for a year and wanted to “kill them all” and chose to use fire as a weapon? Not a car? Not a bomb? Not an illegally acquired gun?
And his target is a kind of innocuous group who are kinda Zionist but not clearly so, who just happens to have an 88 year old Holocaust survivor among their number? These people may have even been publicly opposed to continued war.
It just seems like a lot of time to plan an attack that wasn’t very effective against a group that doesn’t make a very effective statement, by a person almost tailor made to reinforce right-wing talking points. I dunno about active deal-making, but I could definitely believe he was targeted and groomed by someone intending to use him for political purposes.
But he could also just be a moron who spent a year plotting a dumb attack.
