How well did laws to stop isolated crazy people killing lots of people stop … um … a group of countries investing large amounts of money and years of time into planning and training for the largest single attack on a civilian target in history?

I mean sure, you could also ask how laws against shoplifting fail to stop bank robberies, and it would be just as coherent.

Japan would like to have a word with you.

Perhaps "largest single attack on a civilian target by a non-state actor" would be more accurate.
