#1 How did a Bangladeshi man with IS leanings come to be in France in France in the first place? Did his tourist visa just run out and he had nothing better to do?

#2 From the article:

Saif flew to La Belle France in February 2015, graduated from an educational institution there the following year, and then got a part-time job at the university. He is the only child of parents who also lived in La Belle France.

#4 Really depends on your starting point Clem, and the proximity tracer in your smartphone.

Happy Travels Buddy.

#5 If you are Black Bloc or belong to a gang, Clem, quite possibly.

But anyone who is stymied while trying to get to ISIS territory should be assumed to be antisocial and prone to Sudden Jihad Syndrome. The article didn’t say anything about Mr. Rahman’s parents having a visa, so it is a reasonable assumption they were all illegal residents in France, and have no right to remain.
