"The fact of the matter is that it was non-existant -- any information connecting Cho to Islam or Muslim terrorists.

Except of course that he took a muslim name and ritually shaved before he entered paradise, made a jihad martyrdom video and had it delivered to the media.

The name he chose, Ishmael, the Quran regards as a Prophet and is one of the most profound Islamic names.

You also may want to review a video where Azzam al-Amriki references "Ishmael."

Ishmael also likes knives about the neck, in the traditional Islamic fashion.

"The only (so-called) 'connection' is simply that they engage in mass killings of strangers having no direct relation to them -- and that's not an exclusive Muslim distinctive (although they do engage in it)."

You've completely neglected the "Ishmael" connection in my first post, the name he took prior to entering paradise. He signed his body with it and used that name to deliver the martyrdom video.

"There's simply not any kind of adequate connection to put Cho in the Muslim terrorist category -- other than sheer speculation and supposition."

Not true, as I've just pointed out. There's plenty more but I see it is a lost cause here.

You were saying saying ...

I didn't neglect it or ignore it. What I said was...

There's simply not any kind of adequate connection to put Cho in the Muslim terrorist category -- other than sheer speculation and supposition.

And what you find, when you look over the whole of the information about him and from him and what he did and said and how he came across to others around him -- was that he employed a "mish-mash" of "buzz words" from a variety of areas, nothing related to each other. It was basically "schizophrenic name dropping" -- employing a variety of unrelated terms and ideas and such a convoluted potpourri of ideas in such a way that nothing amalgamated into any kind of coherence. LOL...

There was nothing coherent about him.
