I'm fairly certain that Ishamael knows what he's doing is evil. He simply believes that the ends justify the means.


Ishy realizes he is evil according to the world, but to him it doesn't matter. For he has no need for the term evil, indeed he doesn't believe in it.

So he understands why others view him as evil and how repulsive his actions are, but he himself never feels any 'guilt' because he has convinced himself that, at the end of the day, human perceptions such as 'good' and 'evil' don't matter and are meaningless.
