There has been no other published indication that Aaron Alexis was a Muslim or had any interest in Islam. It may be, however, that in his delusional madness, he began to identify with the jihadists who have committed mass murder in the name of their bloodthirsty god.
"Navy Yard gunman's mother says she is heartbroken and sorry for families," by Kyle Eppler, Pete Williams and Erin McClam for NBC News, September 18 (thanks to Darcy):

Is it genuine or a spoof page erected after the attack?
I don’t know the ins and outs of spoofing facebook or other webpages. I’ve heard about fraudulent pages being backdated in other cases.
don’t know BUT washington times had this article
Jihadists cheer, suggest responsibility for Navy Yard shooting that killed 13
http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/sep/16/jihadists-cheer-suggest-responsibility-navy-yard-s/
If true, this explains a lot. Sounds like more investigation is needed.
However, don't expect to see anything about this in the DBM.
Presumably you could prove or disprove this by finding out the web address of whoever opened the account. But I seriously doubt that the authorities will confirm or refute that information.
This is typical of what happens in these times. We hear another story about jihad, but the authorities cover up any chance of confirming it.
He’s the perfect black-muslim convert candidate. Don’t know if it’s true but I suspected it from the start.
A black American who experimented with Buddhism probably experimented with Islam too. I don’t think a black or white American is representative of Buddism.
Another thing, black Americans are not the stereotypical American “mass murderer”. We had the DC snipers but they were driven by a religious ideology AKA Islam.
Another non-white mass murderer in my lifetime was the Asian liberal who did the shooting at the college. His rant was all liberal agenda stuff.
I’m tilting toward this black guy having a mental illness rather than terrorism and there are already laws on the book against him having a gun. Somebody dropped the ball twice on this guy.
It’s not the first time the ball has been dropped under the Obama administration. Nearly all the mass murders were unnecessary as their own restrictions should have prevented them from happening. Makes me wonder if somebody high up in the US government is turning a blind eye with the objective to turn American opinion against guns.
Clinton once said he would be willing to accept a certain number of murders if it would help with his anti-gun agenda.
This man’s race does not fit the stereotype of a mass murderer. Personally I think race has no part in it but it’s just odd that this happens to be the time for it to be the first one.
The US government is turning a blind eye like they did with fast and furious, the Mexican borders and who knows how many of these recent shooting under Obama.

not
Law enforcement officials told NBC News that Alexis created a webpage with the name "Mohammed Salem," but they said he never did anything with it. They said they had found nothing else that might indicate any interest in violent jihad or even in Islam.
That's still pretty vague. But I'd be curious who these law enforcement authorities are. Not much chance that NBC News will take the story any further, I suppose. But that would appear to be more than sheer speculation.
There are a number of Mohammed Salems on Facebook, but none of them is our guy:

But I imagine that someone would have removed the page by now, if there was one.
He was very interested in Thailand even learning the language. But isn’t there a simmering war there between the Buddhist’s and muslims?
There sure is, especially in southern Thailand where heads are being chopped off almost daily in the name of Islam.
at least it wasn’t Carlos Danger
You don’t have to be a Buddhist to get your head chopped off in Thailand or anywhere else...

Nothing to see here. Just another isolated incidence of workplace violence.
“...I’m tilting toward this black guy having a mental illness rather than terrorism...”
I’ve said similar on another thread, and am inclined to agree with you. I think he woke up that morning, said “Today’s THE DAY” in his sick little brain, and just lost it...
Suicide by cop. Unfortunately, he took innocent people with him.
If that “muslim angle” is someone’s sick idea of a joke, it needs to stop. It’s an already bad situation. It doesn’t need to made worse with MORE false crap.
It’s Bad enough we had Piers Morgan spreading the BS that he used an AR15 and the egg suck media trying to run with it.
Haven’t seen this anywhere on MSM.
I had convinced myself that Aaron Alexsis was an alias.
