Doesn't mean they are actually responsible. They did mention Las Vegas in a May 2017 video though.

Just informing the OT.

At this point, I'd take this claim with a huge grain of salt.

There were news stories up 6 hours before it happened.
At this point I have to wonder if ISIS is even legitimate.

Wife was in Dubai a bunch and had family with Muslim names.

She was a high stakes poker hostess, that worked in Dubai, so she was probably in contact with some high stakes go-betweens as well. She's out of the country, if she's over there, she's gone forever.

I think they may have turned this pathetic SOB

I kind of rather ISIS be responsible than just some "I hate trump supporters lunatic" story.

The suicide at the end does not seem to fit the ISIS modus operandi. Usually, if they committ suicide, they try to take others with them.

ISIS flag found in Canadian attack. Reminder of another recent attack.

Again, I am still not sure if they are legitimately responsible for Vegas. The brilliant posters of the OT should be made aware of what is being reported as of now though.

if he was converted, he certainly wasn't their "usual" type.

It was an old white guy from Texas. I doubt he's connected to Isis.

I agree...although the Boston Bomber's wife was a middle class white female named Katherine. She converted and was radicalized by a spouse entirely in the USA.

The Orlando Shooter was supposedly radicalized by family members in the US and by watching videos online.

It's not impossible and should be considered a possibility, especially as ISIS claimed responsibility.

Perhaps he didn't use to be their "usual" type.

Although,I'm not putting much stock at all into the claim. Just ISIS being opportunistic.

If he really converted to Islam, it is a distinct possibility that he has been radicalized to the point of sympathizing with Islamic State. His race or location is irrelevant.

I'm still skeptical though.
