Cho Seung-Hui Motivated By Religion of Peace?

No one is quite sure why Virginia Tech mass murderer Cho Seung-Hui had the words "Ismail Ax" written in red ink on one arm, but in the context of Islam, the words are related.
Ibrahim is considered the father of prophets. He famously used an ax to smash statues worshiped by idolaters. His son Ismail went on to become a prophet too. Each year Muslims slaughter sacrificial sheep in honor of Eid al-Adha, which commemorates Ibrahim's willingness to sacrifice Ismail to Allah.
Don't look for the MSM to play up this angle.
Motivated by the Religion of Peace?
On a tip from Wiggins.
