If this is proven to be caused by ISIS, than its all to do with them being defeated on the ground in the sandy bits. As ISIS loses ground, they see this sort of attack as the only way forward.
This has every appearance of being a terrorist attack.
The man in the lorry was a French Tunisian, though, not some migrant from some far off country shepherded into the country by "EU political correctness" or whatever.
France, well noted actually for its lack of "multi-culturalism" in fact (if by "multi-culturalism" one means identifying that a nation has more than one official culture, although it seems often to be used as a term of abuse deprecating the toleration of anyone of a different culture) , has had N Africans living in it for decades.
just the opposite, I would have said: France is involved in bombings abroad and at home is trying to ban wearing of hijab. ABers have even suggested we should be doing the same. Well, you can see where it's got France.

Of course France has hundreds of mosques. A lot of Moslems live there (tho the percentage of practising Moslems us small) But there has not been the same attempt to embrace the cultures of non white Non Christian peoples that we have seen in eg the UK. Indeed, the French govt has largely followed the path, as jno implies, that many would like to see here, and one can see what France is today, because or in spite of that
Anyway, what its got to do with the EU I'm not sure
