They managed to find an Islamic dimension to the shooting in Virginia: "Sources told the Tribune that the words "ISMAIL AX" were also found written in red ink on the inside of one of Cho's arms. The reference may be to the Islamic account of the Biblical sacrifice of Abraham, where God commands the patriarch to sacrifice his own son. Abraham begins to comply, but God intervenes at the last moment to save the boy." (thanks Kristin)
