Exactly. It's kind of understandable to jump to the conclusion that an attack in Europe by a German-Iranian has something to do with Islam, but this incident is an example of why you should wait for the facts to come out. They have, and it appears that this was nothing more than a guy going off the deep end, who also happened to have a Muslim background, with no connection between the two things.
Frankly I still haven't seen much of substance to suggest that the Nice attack was religious, even though the French authorities are suggesting he was a self-starter inspired by ISIS. Not that I don't believe them, it's just all pretty vague stuff.
