I personally dismissed it out of hand but this NYT bitch thinks otherwise.

ISIS's newsletter also said the guy converted and adopted the name Al-Amriki ("the American"), and that the US government's suppressing the truth about his conversion.

breitbart's got a little more info up about it

Callimachi, who has pointed out that ISIS rarely made completely false claims of responsibility for attacks until fairly recently, reports that Islamic State supporters are using the bombing of a Russian airliner over Egypt as an example of an ISIS attack that was initially denied by the authorities. They also accuse American police and media of conspiring to hide the “martyrdom” of Paddock by suppressing his connection to the Islamic State.

Some eyebrows were raised on Tuesday when Clark County Sheriff Joseph Lombardo asked at a press conference, “Did this person get radicalized unbeknownst to us?” Law enforcement agencies state they have not yet uncovered any evidence to suggest the Las Vegas killer was connected to international terrorism.

does ISIS have a tendency to lie about these things? i can see why they would, but i can also see it being embarrassing for ISIS if they claim he was an ISIS soldier, when a few days later it comes out that he wasn't (like if he made a video confession a few days earlier or something).

i'm *officially* leaning to this being ISIS-related
