Terrorists who have been active in the West involve people from just about every major part of the world. Al Qaeda has also shown that it can adapt, such as using people who don't fit the typical "middle easterner" profile in attacks.
We could just try to prevent yesterday's attack and be doomed to fail, I suppose. Or we could think about what attacks and attackers might look like in the future.
