Cho has the words ‘Ismial Ax’ written on the inside of his arm. Does anyone know what that means? I googled it and come up with nothing.
I found "Ismail Ax" on two websites. One was for a computer science department project where "Ismail Ax" was an english tag in a computer program.
The other place was on a French blog from May 29, 2006. The blogger identifies himself as a member of the "Ax Crew" (I am looking into that now - each member apparently picks a name nd adds Ax to it. For example, the blogger's name is narcissik-ax ) and there is a photo where person is (translated to english from French) identified as "Ismail Ax". He doesn't look anything like the shooter.
Here is a link to the blog.
Try searching on ‘Ishmael and Ax’ or Ibrahim and ax.
(Ismail/Ishmael, son of Ibrahim.)
There are stories in the Koran about Ibrahim using an ax — I haven’t quite found a good source yet.
