Although Arif Uka shouted "Allahu Akbar" before opening fire on U.S. Military members in Germany this week, killing two Airmen and severely wounding two others, the State Department is refusing to call the planned attack an act of terrorism.

State Department Spokesman PJ Crowley implied we shouldn't rush to judgement in this case, that we should "look at the evidence and look at the motivation and then you make a judgment.”
