Ok, I know what your trying to do here.
However lets look at this. The first killer was a pretty active supporter of ISIS, it was all over his face book page, it was all over his twitter account.
He had his passport revoked because his intention was to travel over to join them.
With the killer yesterday, while information is still being dug up. He had his passport seized as his intention was to go over seas and join the fight.
Your forcing your theory based around an obsolete concept. ISIS isn't setting up chapters here or Australia or the UK or anywhere, they're building supporters, they're not sending them cheques, or giving them missions. They're recruiting them to a radical form of Islam, stirring them up and then giving them suggestions through their media (Run people over with your car, kill Soldiers, etc)
There is no International Brotherhood of ISIS members, there are nut cases who are inspired by ISIS and its message of violent Jihad and hatred and intolerance and that binds into their twisted world view and they act on it.
There's no membership cards, or secret handshake, or secret meetings in a bomb assembly warehouse. Its Joe Convert grabbing his car keys or a rifle or whatever and executing on a website message.
But just because they're individuals it doesn't make them any less dangerous and it doesn't remove them from the definition of a terrorist.
