          Is it possible ISIS saw the brother's video saying he hasn't seen him in 6 mos then used that timeframe in newsletter?

          Yes it is. They've made mistakes in the past by mirroring info in media (Including claiming Barcelona attack included attack on a bar)

          Vegas meets the characterization as a “capital of prostitution and obscenity. He meets the profile of a copy cat. Not Isis Indoctrinated.

          False, he didn't convert to Islam. He converted to whatever bastardization of Islam ISIL claims to follow.

          They also have a very specific Arabic name for him. Is that striking to you?
