MSNBC is reporting that “Ismael Ax” was written on his arm, not “Ismail Ax”.

Considering it was something written on his arm with who-knows-what before a heavily dressed guy is running around shooting people, and the initial media report may have been from someone talking to someone who just HEARD what someone else said was written on his arm, it’s likely the whole Ismail thing may be bogus.

Did you see the return address on the Postal Service envelope in the PMSNBC slide show? Addressee is “A. Ishmael”

Anagram. XI is eleven. Samael is the Angel of Death.

And Samael the Evil, surroundeth the whole Evil Sephiroth who are thus eleven instead of ten.

....or that he's just a guy who had a lot of trouble remembering the password for his e-mail account.
