Seems more like a pipebomb by some homegrown lunatic. If this was a foreign terror attack I think those people standing around would have been knocked off their feet. Al Quada doesn't plan something for months/years for a small explosion like that. I'm no expert but it looks like only people super-close were killed or injured.
