I think it's an interesting discussion topic.
The people showed up with molotovs, flashbangs, and zipties. That's intent to intimidate, even if the residents managed to get evacuated before we could prove that they weren't just comfort props from people who were merely cosplaying as terrorists.
Here's a copy/paste legal definition where I removed a lot of extraneous examples:
> Under federal law, the activity or attempted actions which could fall under terrorism charges include:
> government official kidnapping;
> arson or bombing property;
> use of explosives;
> attacking a federal facility;
> conspiracy to murder, kidnap, or maim;
> take a hostage;
> bombing public places;
I mean, they brought molotovs and bombs. And zipties. I'd say an attempt was made.
Then of course there's the fact that one of them murdered a cop by bashing his head with a fire extinguisher.
