It may have been a botched mission, or just not poorly planned, or it may have been "successful", based on their intent. Terrorism isn't always about killing lots of people; it's about striking fear into enemies.

It's possible that getting into government buildings with firearms is all they wanted to do to show what they're capable of. If they killed any people, that was just a bonus.

I highly doubt this. You don't do this kind of thing unless you want to see a major, positive result.

This was exactly enough for places to tighten security and exactly little enough to be seen as a win for them.

This was just a fail on their part.

The conspiracy kooks in this thread have provided quality entertainment.
