He treated this as an isolated incident, akin to many different terror attacks where lonely psychopathic individuals murder innocents. He chose not to connect the murderer with Islamic extremism and condemn that. My own sense is that had he been both honest and courageous he would have both stressed that this is the act of one individual, and at the same time warn of the dangers of radical Islam. What is most worrisome is that this inability to confront Evil straight on may prevent his taking the required action against Iran. Obama played it smart for himself.
