Get used to it. This is the new Europe. It happened recently in the U.S. also, in a Home Depot parking lot.

Obama: Eid al-Adha shows how Islam can “unite us under the banners of fellowship and love”
Yes, indeed. Just look at Fort Hood, and Boston, and Chattanooga, Garland, San Bernardino, Orlando, as well as Paris, Brussels, Nice, etc. etc. etc. Of course, Obama would insist that these had nothing to do with Islam: all the evidence that refutes his politically correct fantasies is waved away.
