Nowhere in the artical does it say it's a terrorist attack. Just the Pres and a quote condemned the "act of terror". But you watch our media put a spin on it by saying British people nearby heard the perpetrator or perpetrators shout out "Allahu Akbar" or something like that.

Regardless of the motive, how else would you describe these attacks

It's a terrorist attack, the attackers are Islamic, the attack was originally focused on a western target - Starbucks. Not too difficult to come to the conclusion that it's Jihadists who are motivated by the doctrine of 'peace and love'.

Why would that be 'spin' if that is what they heard?

The article says bombs and gunfire, that at least six are dead, and that four attackers have been killed, do you really need the reporter to say terrorist attack to work it out?
Of course, it may not be Islamist terrorists, could be Basque separatists or the KKK.

Of course it is a terror attack? What do you think a terrorist attack is?

Monitor your facebook over the next 24 hours. There will be more posts defending Islam than actually condemning the attackers or showing sympathy for the victims. A sign of the (very odd) times.

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, its a .....

In your case given that you have a special talent for refusing to accept the obvious I assume you would answer a whale

What an odd post. What would you describe it as? A kerfuffle?

That'll be because:-

'you ain't no Muslim, bruv'.

Much the same can be said elsewhere around the planet:-

'you ain't no Christian, bruv'.
'voi you ain't no Jew, bruv'.

Any so on, although I believe the Buddhist get a pass on this one.
