#2 Another rabid, lone wolf

Would someone for the Republic of Congo be a jihadi concern? I had assumed not, but am willing to b corrected.

#3 a 26-year-old man traveling from Brazil with a French passport

Upon a secondary check, he was found to be from the Republic of Congo and impersonating the man whose picture was in his passport.

Easy enough to flipflop identities between flight legs. French to RC, RC to Brazil, French to US.

So consider him a Jihadi French migrant couriering thru RC with a wash in Brazil.

The interesting twist is him carrying an alternative RC identity. One might have a set of new papers FedEx'ed to his destination, but this one was dumb or needed RC identification in BZ for an expedient pickup.
