They say there are no connections to terror, that the gunman wasn't shooting people. He set fire to casino gambling tables using a can of gasoline that he poured over it, and they say if he was truly a jihadi militant, he would have been shooting the people. They also claim that he tried to steal millions of dollars worth of casino chips, another one of the arguments that they're using to argue that this was a robbery and not a terrorist attack -- John and Poppy.</s>BERMAN: All right, Ivan Watson.
