'FBI whistleblower believes 2017 Vegas shooter was ISIS agent of revenge
2022-10-05
BLUF:
[PJ] But Mateen himself told the world he committed the act on behalf of ISIS in retaliation for an ISIS leader’s death. He’d been on the FBI’s radar for his radicalization.

Former FBI special agent John Guandolo told Turning Point USA in a recorded interview (below) that there’s a 90% certainty that the Las Vegas attack was a jihadi operation and Stephen Paddock was the conduit through which the terrorist organization attacked America.

In the interview, Guandolo said, "When you look at what actually transpired and put it together from a counter-espionage attack and counter-espionage look, the probability that was an ISIS attack is well over 90%."

He said the special agent in charge of the Las Vegas FBI field office "got angry and dismissed it, and when presented with the information, FBI headquarters in Washington, D.C., dismissed it out of hand."

Guandolo said he’d been asked to brief "a couple of people; members of Congress and others."

He said, "The FBI both in Washington, LA, and Las Vegas that participated in that investigation can’t even begin to think of it as a jihadi attack, because number one, they still don’t understand what that actually means." He continued, "they don’t understand what actually happens and they have no desire to understand what happened. So their knee-jerk reaction in these cases is always to dismiss that and point in a different direction, because they’ve been conditioned to do so." He concludes, "I mean, it only points to an ISIS attack. It does not point anywhere else. ISIS claimed responsibility for the attack five times. They said that guy, he’s our guy. We hail him, he’s a martyr."

#6  If this was a plan by ISIS, they could done way more damage per dollar invested by donating the same resources to the Biden campaign. Going forward, hey can leave all the messy beheadings to the Planned Parenthood obstetricians and just provide max support to Schumer and Pelosi's team during the 2022 election cycle.

#5   ISIS claimed responsibility for the attack five times.

They generally claim the big ones, even when it proves to have been someone else.

#4  Bobulinski may just take the entire Biden Crime Family down. DoJ won't touch it. A civil lawsuit may be the place to start.

Somebody's linkage analysis AI needs a tuneup.

#1  He said the special agent in charge of the Las Vegas FBI field office "got angry and dismissed it, and when presented with the information, FBI headquarters in Washington, D.C., dismissed it out of hand."

Possible incorrect political and media narrative. Paddock, (like Tsarnaev Bros, MAJ Nadal Hasan, and 9/11 bombers) was "on FBI's radar."

Everyone knows Islam is the religion of peace. Other Government Agency (OGA) initiatives and programs are in play here. Money trail? What money trail ?

ISIS agent of revenge theory? That's just crazy talk. No airplanes or suicide vests were involved.

Paddock motive must remain unknown, a mystery. See Epstein and Rich cases for clarification.

Move along please. Nothing to be seen here.
