i haven't read his manifesto or whatever, but i hardly think this qualifies as terrorism. The act of terrorism implies that after the initial event (9/11), associated or like parties are ready and willing to repeat the action, thereby creating fear that it will happen again.
This guy, from what i can discern, had a grudge against his government over money and was pushed to a point of committing a ridulculous and harmful act. There is no "there's more of us" or "expect more things like this in the future". He said "here's my pound of flesh". He's (obviously) done.- * (9/11, for example)
