ISIS provides proof of Vegas claim, “careful monitoring of the crusader gathering”

Shortened title.

Full title: ISIS provides proof of Vegas claim, “careful monitoring of the crusader gathering” and other facts you do not know

The Islamic State has provided further information (in English) to substantiate its claim that Steven Paddock was a Muslim convert who waged war in the cause of Allah in Las Vegas Sunday evening, claiming that Paddock did a reconnaissance of the site of his mass shooting.

It is unwise for the authorities and the leftwing media to dismiss the Islamic State’s claims out of hand. Primarily because underestimating the Islamic State has been one of the West’s biggest mistakes, and secondly because we know nothing about this unfathomable act of evil.

From the article:

There were 23 firearms including automatic weapons inside the Mandalay hotel where Steve Paddock holed up for four days. Investigators also found another 19 firearms, along with explosives and several thousand rounds of ammo at Paddock’s house in Mesquite, Nevada, some 80 miles (130 kilometers) away. Automatic weapons are banned.

Full auto weapons, however, are widely owned by police officers, federal officials and military organizations. It will be very interesting to find out where this weapon came from and how it was acquired

Did he modify them? He had no military experience. Where did he learn how to do that?  Who trained him? Who did he associate with?

I respect Pam Gellar and the work she does, but evidence of ISIS affiliation would consist of a video or social media posting by Paddock swearing his allegiance to Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi, like Omar Mateen did before he gunned down those people in Orlando last year.

Terry Nichols was married to a muslim Phillipina.

Her parents ived in the same building as the failed Bojinka Plot bombers, the guys who planned to knock of John Paul 2 and knock 20 airliners out of the sky at the same time.

Under questioning by the cops in the Phillipines, guys from Abu Sayyaf described repeatedly meeting with a former US soldier they called “The Farmer”.

Terry Nichols’ job before joining the Army was farming.

McVeigh used a calling card when repeatedly calling the southern Phillipines. After the card was almost depleted McVeigh screwed up and replenished the card using a credit card tied to his name:

He had been repeatedly calling a public phone in the Phillipines then located right behind a well-known Abu Sayyaf safehouse.

Why did Casino Kook wire $100,000 to the Phillipines..?

Sudden Donor Syndrome...?

A few more tidbits:

1. On his last trip to the Phillipines before his arrest, Nichols left a letter to his wife. The letter was later turned over to investigators.

In it, he described a money location and admonished he might not be returning from this particular trip. There was something about Nichols’ trips that might have seemed to him very dangerous —like meeting with terrorists.

2. Oh his return flight Phillipines police stopped Nichols from bording his first intended return flight from the USA. He ended up missing it. His suspicious behavior..? He was trying to board with what the police assumed were TASERS AND COMPONENTS FOR A BOMB.

3. There are electronic record showing that Terry Nichols and Ramzi Yousef took the same flight at least ONE time:

(all of this was before NYC 9-11)

People that don’t know anything about weapons should really shut up about weapons. Sick of reading retarded nonsense from people I dig.

If it can be firmly established that this clown has ever visited Dubai that would lend credence to....but certainly not *prove*...this claim being correct.

Anyone who's ever been there (as I have) knows what I mean.

And no,I'm not saying that every American who's ever visited Dubai is a jihadi.But 1) Dubai is not at all high on the list of vacation destinations for Americans and 2) of the Americans who *have* visited Dubai in recent years it would appear that he's the only one who's ever killed 60 country music fans and injured hundreds (all "infidels",no doubt) in a major American city using jihadi techniques.

Pamela Geller is about as reliable a source as Alex Jones. Take whatever she claims with a big grain of salt.

Meh, slide-fire stock, no problem. Run a few mags with a stock like that and it’s no problem, even if there’s more muzzle climb.

You break down an AR-15 one or two times and it’s a snap. 10 or more times..? You can do it with your eyes closed.

Training..? Even a fool can do it, though if you’re fussy there are 100 YouTube vids that can put you straight, in way less time than in the miitary, too.

If you didn’t want to go the slide-fire stock route you can also use the AutoGlove, though the BATF recently ruled it’s not legal.

The range was a bit far but this guy was basically spraying a crowd of 22,000 people below him. Many of them actually LAID DOWN for him for some minutes, giving him fantastic stationary targets.

Later crowds of them took refuge in —get this— a TENT.

I’d say a total idiot could manage the technical aspects of his grisly work.

How did he get the weapons up there..? He broke them down, placed them in bags and then CARRIED them up there. Easy.

Crates of ammo..? They could be pre-loaded into mags, then put into common bags, but there are also big, roller-wheel Samsonites that will accomodate entire CRATES of ammo, no prob.

The technicals are actually pretty easy.

The guy filmed it and streamed it to somewhere. He’s been trained by ISIS.

No you got the timeline wrong. In less than 12 hours from shots fired to FBI release of “no ISIS connection” on a Sunday night. it was over. Well not really, the cover has begun.

Yeah it’s really sleezy to put “PROOF!” in the title when there isn’t even the slightest whiff of it.

This is sleazy blogger behavior, come on we expect better.

And this only minutes after another article of hers posted here that claimed she KNEW the pussyhat protester was the vegas shooter when she doesn’t at all (just happen to look something like him and have same first name)

I’m sure it’s strange to reply to my own post but I wanted to clarify my criticism.

It’s ok to post speculation saying hey ISIS isn’t in the habit of making false claims, lets look into it. But don’t say there is PROOF when there isn’t even any evidence.

It’s ok to say hey this is an interesting coincience, this leftist protester looks like the shooter, lived nearby and had same first name. Check this out and let’s look into it more.

But don’t say you KNOW it is exactly him when you don’t. Don’t lie to us Pam, be more careful with the truth
