FBI Special Agent Aaron Rouse disputed the Islamic State’s claim of a Sunday night shooting at a country music concert in Las Vegas.
“We have determine to this point no connection with an international terrorist group,” Rouse said during a Monday press conference.
Isis has claimed responsibility for the shooting attack that has left at least 50 dead in Las Vegas.
A statement published by the group’s Amaq propaganda agency claimed the attacker was a “soldier of the Islamic State”.
In a second statement, Isis claimed the gunman “converted to Islam several months ago”.
The wording of the release is similar to other attacks that have been inspired, rather than directed, by Isis.
President Donald Trump used a solemn address from the White House on Monday to call for unity in the aftermath of the deadliest mass shooting in modern US history, calling the massacre an “act of pure evil.”
In a subdued statement, Trump said the nation was united “in sadness, shock and grief.”
“We cannot fathom their pain, we cannot imagine their loss,” Trump said of those who lost loved ones in the massacre.
It’s also refreshing to hear churches in the United States quote Torah and make so many references to G-d. #not. We don’t want their honey nor their sting. Their “Torah” is not Torah, their god not our One G-d. Yes, it’s important for people to believe in something beyond the physical, but that does not it make it holy, or Truth, and we call it avodah zarah. Do not forget the millions who have been murdered for 2000 years in the name of his avodah zarah. Although today they sweetened their methods, their goal is the same, to destroy our… Read more »
Unfortunately these days Islam is responsible for most major terror attacks, and they do have the monopoly in committing barbaric genocide and torture.
It’s refreshing to hear a president of the united states quoting Torah and making so many references to G-d.
What a horrible, horrible, senseless attack on innocent bystanders.
Maybe they will start to feel what Israelis have been going through for decades!
The Nazis weren’t Islamic. Islam hasn’t got the monopoly in commitment of barbaric genocide and torture.
we want Moshauch now
Here the news does not say it was ISIS
TOTAL RUBBISH
FAKE NEWS
NO ISIS, GUNMAN WAS A LONE WOLF, FORMER ACCOUNTANT WHOSE FATHER WAS A BANK ROBBER.
THATS IT
Did you see the videos of the beheadings? I did…..and I wish I hadn’t.
i doubt it was isis theyre not that voilent it was probably the liberals
But isn’t confirmed they just want to TERRORize make you believe that every act of violence and evil is their doing this way you will fear them. We will wait for confirmation and see.
Main thing is gd should heal the wounded and grievers. May we know no more evil!
Why ever not? It was a liberal Democrat who shot Rep. Steven Scalise a couple months back. These are people who don’t want _you_ to have guns, but who have no problem with themselves having them.
My grandchildren are all attending The Desert Torah Academy in Las Vegas today, so BH it is business as usual. However, Chana Rochel bas Sora remains critical and needs everyone’s Tehillim.
Mrs. P. Metal
Liberals are the same bad as isis if not worse!!!
we didn’t have a cold war and a cuba nuclear showdown with a bunch of hippy peaceniks
You think it was a liberal? Liberals are very pro gun regulation usually. How dare you blame a democrat/liberal over ISIS. You think they’re worse than ISIS? Go walk into a restaraunt with ISIS members. Then walk back-oh wait…..
They will claim responsibility for anything
I think it was a left wing liberal who targeted what he supposed right wing country music lover crowd…. but the media rather telling you that it was ISIS
So it probably wasn’t isis
Maybe news outlets should wait for a shred of evidence before passing along a publicity-seeking group’s claim of responsibility?
Why am I not surprised?
