What is the mission if not to instill terror for the group as a means to helping it achieve its goals? That's "terrorism". Increasing the number of people afraid to fly and prompting airlines to increase their security measures does unacknowledged terrorists no good.
Anyway, if he was really on a mission as part of an organized terrorist group or as a lone-wolf inspired by them, there will be evidence of that affiliation or fixation.
I don't understand why you think the terrorist organization with whom he was affiliated or by whom he was inspired wouldn't take credit if he really was a terrorist. That's counter-intuitive, to me.
