It's hilarious watching Americans with no experience of living in a European country and who by European standards are themselves bordering on the far right rant about commies, our 911 moment and gun control.
The only thing that's different this time is that news can travel so much faster and more effectively around the world. So Americans who have never heard of this happening before will of course be making it seem more significant than it is. But as noted earlier, there have always been terrorist attacks in Europe. Until 911 the IRA got a lot of its funding from asking for donations in American bars so they could perform more shootings and bombings in the UK.
There was also the Basque separatists and Red Army Faction and Chechans in Russia etc.
