I think it's speculation to say it was luck. Some say it was luck, some say he picked times when the buildings would be empty. I think someone that put that much planning and effort into something like this would be very deliberate about that, but we will never know. All we know is what actually happened.

yeah not very convincing. it was the middle of the afternoon and a dozen structures. pretty clearly a "if they die, they die" attitude.
which is different than a mass shooting of course.
so maybe a "Unabomber for zoning conflicts"
Well it's fine to disagree. But I think the attacks speak for themselves. Targeted buildings > destroyed buildings, sent bombs to people > blew people up. I think you can glean something about the intent from the action itself. If Uncle Ted said "I never meant to hurt anyone" that would be very hard to believe. If St Martin said "what I intended is what I did" that is very plausible.
