I think that this is the trick right.

The Terrorism attacks were inspired by more then just the desire to kill the infidel. There's always a political aim to these attacks, and for example a larger organization behind them.

With this guy, it might be revenge, it might be the simple desire to kill Muslims. But to me its labeled as an individual crime and the color of the skin doesn't really matter at that point. However that could change if he's linked to a group or has some kind of political agenda.

Do I think he should still be charged with terrorism related crimes? Absolutely, the jail sentences are more permanent.
