    Yes, it is an organization which specializes in mass killing, it claims publicly that it can and will do horrendous things. What happened in Vegas is an old eccentric man suddenly deciding to die infamously and taking with him numerous innocent lives;((

    They apparently also claim responsibility for that shooting but the FBI apparently claims different? 

    https://www.businessinsider.com/las-vegas-shooting-reports-of-gunman-at-mandalay-bay-casino-2017-10

    58 people are dead and more than 515 are injured after a mass shooting in Las Vegas

    ...

    Officers identified him as Stephen Paddock, a 64-year-old man from Nevada. They believe he was the only attacker, and that he killed himself before they arrived.

    A statement from ISIS claimed that the attack was their doing, and that Paddock converted to Islam "a few months ago." The FBI contradicted this claim, saying that Paddock had "no connection with an international terrorist group."

    I wonder why it took police to arive 76 minutes, in the MIDDLE OF LAS VAGUS no doubt. It all smells like a set up to me.

    I don't think it took the police 76 minutes to arrive? There seems to have been some confusion as to where he was located. Some officers on the 31st floor apparently realized he was on the 32nd floor while there were other reports of the 50th or 60th floor and the ones closest were outgunned. I think the police were trying to do what they could with the information and weapons that they had. He wounded a security guard and apparently he unloaded some 200 rounds in to the corridor.

  • In my opinion, the number one threat to our country is not Isis. The number one threat in our country is domestic terrorism. Who's funding and propagating this terrorism may shock you. I would suggest to anyone that's interested, to do some research to find out

    ISIS is a massive threat but it‘s just a pawn on the grand chessboard.

    The real threat are the political forces that covertly fund and supply ISIS while opening our borders to all those radical lunatics.

    The establishment thinks it can use Islam as a proxy army in the Middle East to create as many refugees as possible. They think that by opening our borders to a backward inferior culture like Islam they can dilute the culture of liberty in the west. That‘s the real threat.
