Correct. I'm curious about the context of his 2013 remarks where he allegedly claimed to be a member.

Was he trying to creep out his coworkers? Did he want to be taken seriously? Did this boasting indicate actual affection for them?

And further, were his views about Hizballah in 2016 the same as they were in 2013? Those are my questions about that thread.

Switch between Nusra and ISIS. No problem. What's the path from Hizbullah?

Several. One path is that he was pro-militancy in general & sharpened in a salafi direction.

There are several hardline salafis who were earlier involved in communist movements, for example. Bilal Phillips is one.

Also possible that his comments were not actually meant to indicate affinity. Or that his mind changed in 3 years. Etc.

Right extreme to left, sure. Hizbullah is such a specific place in the spectrum. Feels like he just wanted militancy?
