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.
On a tip from Wiggins.

On his video, Cho compares himself to Jesus Christ and the crucifixion.
That's funny, because Islam doesn't believe Jesus was crucified. They believe that he lived until old age, and died peacefully.
Could it be that Cho was a Christian who believed in the "end times", and wanted to be martyred for Christ? Most of these end time nuts rail against hypocrisy, hedonism, liberalism, and consider non-psycho Christians as false.

And I'm not Chinese.
Call me you have something that says that this guy has even seen the inside of a mosque in his life.
On the other hand, go ahead and make fools of yourselves like Deb Schlussel. Reading all these righty blogs, I'm getting the impression that you guys want this guy to be Muslim. I don't blame you really. I mean, that way you can reinforce your own islamophobia and get the scoop on exposing a MSM 'coverup' at the same time. Twofer.

This selfish, twisted boy was motivated strictly by his own ego and satanic possession...not Christianity or any particular religion.
He used bits and pieces of religion(s) as red herrings to cover the truth behind his motive. He wanted attention but didn't want to socialize or do what's acceptable to get that attention, so he fabricated a story to justify his way. All losers use this method. He's no different from the rest. And where he is now, he's getting no attention whatsoever. He will be forgotten just as all losers are.

It's surprisingly unsurprising that he is religious.
Does anyone else see a pattern?
