Not really, when you think of things like the Guernica bombings in the Spanish civil war. I'm not disagreeing that the whole situation is a terrible thing, but hype like that doesn't really do justice to that. Shakespeare's Sonnet 130 comes to mind...
Of course he meant the worst terrorist outrage, Guernica was a Nazi attack in the Spanish Civil War. It can't be seen as terrorism in the same way.
Anyway we can say it's the biggest massacre in the history of the European Union. And that's why they considered to set on that day the day of the terrorism victims.
