ISIS is actually usually truthful when they claim someone was working with them. I read somewhere that the FBI verifies each claim independently, and found that that about 95% of the time when ISIS claims some attack was in their name, it can be independently verified to be true.
Likely a hit team was to have assembled in Paddock’s room and then attacked the upper floors of the Mandalay Bay,
owned by Walid bin Talil (and Bill Gates, btw).
IE, owned by a globalist and key player.
Was it an attempt to take out M. bin Salman?
That appears likely; especially since bin Salman launched a purge shortly thereafter.
There are even suggestions that the deep state wanted to lure Trump to Vegas for a private meeting with bin Salman; and then take out the two of them — blaming ISIS — and restoring the globalists to control.
Whatever the scenario, it doesn’t appear to have been the work of a lone random killer who just snapped.
