The Las Vegas Massacre Is Exactly What It Appears To Be – Stephen Paddock Was A Terrorist
IWB ^ | Ruby Henley

Posted on 10/04/2017 11:16:46 AM PDT by davikkm

A former FBI Special Agent says the profile of Las Vegas shooter, Stephen Paddock is not easily deciphered. “This is not traditional,” said the agent, David Couvertier, who interrogated numerous suspects during his lengthy FBI career. Paddock’s ability to seal himself off is the first clue. Couvertier said Paddock’s career working in the postal service and IRS is telling, also.

Paddock had an uncomfortable childhood being moved from place to place by his Father, who was on the FBI’s MOST WANTED LIST. It must been have been lonely existence for the young man.

Paddock grew up to be a millionaire with a seemingly good life. What went wrong? Did he convert to Islam and follow ISIS? Most likely he was working with ISIS. This attack should not be a surprise, as ISIS had threatened to target Las Vegas some time ago.

Although Islamic terrorist group, ISIS has claimed responsibility for the attack stating Paddock converted to Islam months ago, authorities are saying there is no evidence to prove the lone wolf had any links to the organization. I think in time, they will reveal it was indeed an ISIS related terror attack.

Me, too. I watched the whole video and there was neither a mention of Antifa nor and picture of any Antifa literature. I suspect a connection, but still need real evidence.

As was posted elsewhere on FR: Supposedly, the FBI was using this guy and his resources in a sting operation to move weaponry to domestic ISIS enclaves. He was supposedly double-crossed by some rogue FBI agents, and then went totally ballistic (no pun intended), went over the deep end, and supported ISIS with this massacre. That’s why ISIS is claiming him as their own. IF true, even an element of it, talk about an embarrassment to the FBI. And IF true, then they’ want to cover it up faster than cat that just took a crap in the sandpile making Deep state have much blood on its hands. This plausible explanation would answer a lot of unanswered questions, especially in regards to the quantity and type of weapons. When it comes to FBI and ISIS, nothing would be a surprise.

I was going to post his brother, while probably not involved dirrectly with the actual theft, helped launder the money.
He may not even no the details but he knew his brother was doing something illegal.

Words have meaning to me. I was posting on Monday morning that this was, by definition, terrorism. It may not have been “Religious terrorism”, but that only discusses the motive, not the act or its expected result.

When you harm a few people as a threat of harm to a LOT of people, and the latter feels terror, you have committed a terrorist act.

“Paddock’s career working in the postal service and IRS is telling, also.”

the warning to the crowd

That's the elephant in the room, trampling the lone wolf. Imagine if someone had run through downtown Dallas saying, "they're going to shoot Kennedy when he rides by."
Someone knew beforehand.
Yet with all the phones, nobody captured an image of that someone.

“I wouldn’t doubt Antifa connection, but please show me the evidence.”

I would sooner see private communications from Hillary telling him to do it....

Your point are valid, but my understanding is that the “legal/official” definition of terrorism involves an underlying political objective to be accomplished through the violence.

Brother Eric has said that Stephen gave him enough money for Eric to quit his job and retire early. That and his evasive speech has me convinced that Eric is up to his eyeballs in Stephen’s monetary crimes.

I tend to doubt that he had any part of the massacre. I think that’s big brother’s own sociopathic thing.

I think this conversion to Islam is a rabbit hole. Where would he have been converted? An imam handling out korans in the casino? Reported Danley is a catholic.

I am leaning towards a nefarious deep state conspiracy.

Post 22, Wow. Would explain why a millionaire would throw his life away on a rogue killing spree. I can’t see a millionaire throwing away his comfortable life for any reason. The fact that he was a millionaire bothers me more than all the other details.

Google Antifa threats to overthrow the government on November 4. Maybe this guy just got the party started early or got the date wrong.

Brennan is a vile bastard and I wouldn’t put it past him.

64 year old millionaire gambler turns ISIS. Doubtful at best.

Anyone who terrorizes and kills people like this is a terrorist.

Where is the evidence for any of this?

You are right. Anyone who terrorizes and kills people is a terrorist. Their motives can be labeled.
