UPDATE: Killer Said Allahu Akbar Before Shooting, Fort Hood Shooter Major Nidal Malik Hasan Confirmed Alive

» by GI Korea in: US Military

UPDATE #2:  As I have been saying:

Finnell said he did just that during a year of study in which Hasan made a presentation “that justified suicide bombing” and spewed “anti-American propaganda” as he argued the war on terror was “a war against Islam.” Finnell said he and at least one other student complained about Hasan, surprised that someone with “this type of vile ideology” would be allowed to wear an officer’s uniform.

But Finnell said no one filed a formal, written complaint about Hasan’s comments out of fear of appearing discriminatory.

“In retrospect, I’m not surprised he did it,” Finnell said. “I had real questions about what his priorities were, what his beliefs were.”  [Associated Press]

Make sure to read the whole thing because it is clear that this is not a PTSD case but instead a SJS case (Sudden Jihad Syndrome).

___________________________________________

UPDATE: So much for the PTSD ticking time bomb theory:

Soldiers who witnessed the shooting rampage at Fort Hood that left 13 people dead reported that the gunman shouted “Allahu Akbar!” before opening fire, the base commander said Friday.  [Stars & Stripes]

___________________________________________

By now everyone has probably heard about the mass shooting in Ft. Hood, Texas.  The shooting took place at what in the Army is called an SRP center.  The SRP is where soldiers go to mobilize or demobilize before and after deployments.  I actually did an SRP a few years back at Ft. Hood myself, but I have no idea if Ft. Hood is using the same building for SRP now or not.  The shooter likely chose the spot because it was likely a large number of soldiers would be there to shoot.  If the building is the same and it had a unit doing SRP in it this guy would have had many easy targets to shoot.  So this guy had this thing planned out, he didn’t just suddenly snap.  Speaking of the shooter it has been confirmed that he is alive and many other details about him are coming out:

A military doctor who reportedly feared an impending war deployment is in custody as the sole suspect in a shooting rampage at the Army’s Fort Hood that left 12 dead and at least 30 wounded, an Army official said Thursday night.

The news that the suspect, Major Nidal Malik Hasan, was alive and in stable condition, came as a sudden reversal of early reports that the gunman was among the dead.

“I would say his death is not imminent,” Lt. Gen. Bob Cone said. Col. Ben Danner said the suspect was shot at least four times.

Two other soldiers who were taken into custody as possible suspects were released Cone told reporters Thursday evening.

A female first responder who shot at Hasan and was previously thought to be dead, was also alive, Cone said.

Federal law enforcement officials say Hasan had come to their attention at least six months ago because of Internet postings that discussed suicide bombings and other threats.  [Fox News]

I first heard of this shooting on the radio and of course people were speculating that the mass shooting was committed by a soldier affected with PTSD.  This irresponsible speculation only further advances the stereotype that war veterans are all potential rapists and murderers just waiting to snap.  Look at what this idiot had to say:

“I’m very upset. I’m at the point of tears,” said Paul Sullivan, executive director of Veterans for Common Sense, who lives in Austin.

“We warned the military about this. We warned the military about the need to increase the number of mental health care providers. We warned the military about lowering recruiting standards, about the medical exams for soldiers coming back from the war and needing mental health care and brain injury exams.”

“We have been working tirelessly to try to prevent this from happening,” he said. “This is so horrible. This is a tragedy.”  [via This Ain't Hell]

Guess what this guy was a freaking psychiatrist, never deployed to Iraq, and graduated from Virgina Tech, which coincidentally is where the Cho Seung-hui mass killing occurred.  Anyway this totally blows away all the false assumptions from Veterans for Common Sense idiot.  It should come as no surprise that this “veterans group” is actually another leftist front group looking to slime the military.

I guess we are supposed to go duck under tables every time we hear a loud bang. We are supposed to stare off into space all the time and cannot sleep at night because of the nightmares of our war crimes. When someone makes us mad were supposed to go into a fit of rage and attack them and God forbid if we have a weapon handy we would then kill them.  For those that haven’t already, I highly recommend reading B.G. Burkett’s book Stolen Valor to see exactly how the current perceptions of Vietnam veterans was created. It is really shocking and the same perceptions created about Vietnam veterans are now trying to be attributed to current war veterans as well.  Of course I have shown before the PTSD ticking time bomb stereotype, is not true.

From what we know now this guy is psychologist that never deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan and has been possibly investigated before Islamic extremist Internet postings.  So how come the media wasn’t speculating if this guy was an Islamic radical instead of a PTSD time bomb?

Anyway I did find it humorous that people are trying to defend him by claiming he was teased because he was of Middle Eastern descent.  This guy is a grown man and a Major in the US Army, who is a doctor making a six figure salary, how many people could possibly be teasing him?

By the way, did anyone see Larry King, Dr. Phil and Shoshanna Johnson were supposedly defending this guy.

This crap pissess me off.

Anyway here is some more Milblog reaction to all of this:

    “Are guns allowed on bases?”

    The only personnel allowed to openly display weapons on the base are military police. Personal weapons must be kept locked and registered with the base provost marshal. The military police keep a record of all of the weapons on a base.

    So no, they did not have weapons to return fire with unless they were violating the Army gun control regulations.

    Once again we see that Gun Control laws and regulations do nothing to inhibit mentally unstable people and criminals from perpatrating acts of violence with firearms. I am sure they will take on a weapons citation to his 12 counts of 1st degree homocide when they indite him.

    Funny thing. :cry:

    When I joined the Army even during the tail end of the COLD War one of the things you were asked was:

    “Are you, or have you ever been, a member of the communist party?”

    I think that was likely a pretty prudent question given the times. I am quite certain there were communists who were good loyal Americans whom were prevented from serving. Also, I’m certain it was appropriate that an affirmative answer could preclude you from joining the military. Then again, communists were not generally known to be candidates to go about on shooting rampages and suicide bombings. I guess communism just wasn’t THAT important to them.

    Have we forgotten past lessons learned – so easily? Or, is this more political correctness. How many troops will die in incidents like this for that warm Feel Good Glow of Doing The “Right Thing”.

    “Then again, communists were not generally known to be candidates to go about on shooting rampages and suicide bombings. I guess communism just wasn’t THAT important to them.”

    Most of the terrorist organizations in Europe held Communists ideologies — the Baader-Meinhofs, for a prominent example. Also, most of the terrorist/freedom-fighter violent organizations of minority cultural nationalists, like the IRA and Basques, were based on Marxist ideologies, because Marxism gave a very productive historical grounding for their goals.

    Being an American Muslim does not predispose you to shooting your comrades any more than being a Christian Fundamentalist makes you a risk for abortion clinic bombings. They are both equally unwelcome and if you must ask a question then it would be: “Are you now or have you ever been a member of an organized religion”. It is the broken fairytale belief systems that prey on the week minds of the mentally unstable that makes this kind of stuff happen. Since it would not be in keeping with the constitution to exclude certain belief systems then perhaps money needs to be spent to identify and controling the mentally unstable before they can act out against society. Cho Seung-hui was not a Muslim and his religous beliefs were never even mentioned during the entire discourse… only that the “system had failed”. A 21st century McCarthy witchhunt for Islamic Extremists would do much more harm to everyone involved and just make us the losers.

    I was speaking of OUR society. The United States of America and the people who are protected by what is left of the Constitution and Bill of Rights. Of course people from other societies and cultures who intend to impose their values and belief systems on us rightly deserve to be turned into paste via carpet bombing.

    A mentally unstable American Muslim, born and raised in the US, is no more or less likely to go on a shooting rampage than if he was a mentally unstable American Adventist. To look at the guys name and say “Ahhh, that explains it” even before it was revealed that he wasn’t even dead seems to me to be more than a little prejudice. A large number of comments I have read on various blogs and news sites show an extreme amount of prejudice and hate based solely on the suggestion that this person might be a Muslim.

    Here is list of some serious mass shootings in recent years compiled by the AP. Does this support a call to screen people of any certain belief system and exclude them from military service? Muslim, Baptist… AMISH??? All these people were mentally and emotionally damaged… but I do support the idea that religous beliefs can push mentally unstable indiviuals into action of this kind. The inability of the individual to seperate fantasy from reality is scewed further becasue their paticular religous cohorts reinforce the belief that what the religion says is reality. If you firmly believe in life after death and all your buddies says it’s true then how would this affect your actions when it came to assaulting and killing people????

    June 20, 1994: Former airman Dean A. Mellberg sprayed a military hospital with bullets at Fairchild Air Force Base in Spokane, Wash., killing four people and wounding 23 others before military police shot him to death. Two of those killed in the five-minute rampage were therapists who had recommended Mellberg’s discharge.

    Oct. 18, 1993: A civilian Army base supply clerk killed his boss and two co-workers and severely wounded two others at the Training Support Center in Fort Knox, Ky. Arthur Hill then drove 40 miles to the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Louisville, where he committed suicide.

    Good list and a hell of a reminder to be alert for Bad Guys- whomever they might be.

    I’m not going condemn this dip shot for being a Moslem but I won’t give him props either- it was likely a factor- but the fact that he was nucking futs AND had displayed other “doesn’t play well with others” factors were all indicators. That he made public statements in support of the enemy, against his own side, and was STILL promoted to field grade gives me such great encouragement that the system works. :roll:

    That said- he just played one for the other side of this fight, so he can -and should- fry.

    Here is a gem of a quote from Adolph Hitler. Perhaps you have heard of his adventures in Europe during the 1930’s and 40’s.

    “My feelings as a Christian points me to my Lord and Savior as a fighter. It points me to the man who once in loneliness, surrounded only by a few followers, recognized these Jews for what they were and summoned men to fight against them and who, God’s truth! was greatest not as a sufferer but as a fighter. .. How terrific was His fight for the world against the Jewish poison.”

    I read an interesting piece on this earlier. The mindset of this wacko is that by killing the soldiers he is saving the lives of other muslims that the soldiers would have in turn killed.

    What he has really done is create more hatred of muslims.

    I’m not religious, and don’t go to church, but I still find humor in the fact that Jesus died for his followers, but allah wants you to die for him. If I need a religion, I think I’ll choose one where I can continue to live.

    A guy goes postal because of religion, ethnicity, nationalism or whatever issues and it’s an indictment of everyone with any those associations? All Muslims are evil? What are you going to do? Round them all up and send them to concentration camps? We have thousands of Muslims in the military. What are you going to do? Colin Powell spoke out for them during last year’s election.

    We have never been able to satisfy the demand for Middle East linguists. What are we going to do? Iraq? Afghanistan? Hearts and minds? Mediating peace between Arabs and Israelis? Lost causes? Stop wasting time and money? Pull the troops out now?

    I grew up in Brooklyn, New York. In the summer of 2002, almost a year after 9/11, I went back for a family funeral. I still remember a day that put things back together for me. I was standing at a corner waiting for a bus. Looking across the street, there was a Korean market which brought my attention to my return to Korea. At that moment, two men crossed paths in front of that store. One was a Hasidic (orthodox) Jew and the other in traditional Muslim robe and cap. They didn’t give each other a second look and apparently no one else did either. It shouldn’t have been surprising to me because growing up there I knew that was common. But after 9/11, I thought it was unexpected. I had been away too long.

    I later talked to family and friends and learned that after 9/11 there were some anti-Islamic outbursts but things soon returned to normal. In New York, everyone has to go to school and work with people of all different religious and ethnic groups. You start to identify people by their individual character and not their group identity. You can find people who are funny, interesting, jerks, racists or just a$$holes in all groups. I have found the New York experience is also true in the military. The big difference for me between New York and the military is a lot less group-think in New York. It’s not uncommon to see Muslims stand up and defend Jews against other Muslims and visa-versa.

    On the subject of all Muslims are evil, let me start by saying that I am not a religious person. I can get along with anyone of any faith as long as they don’t start preaching to me. I am, however, a passive observer of how people express their faith. I have known many Muslims over the years. The traditional, orthodox ones are easy to recognize in full garb. At the same time, I think they feel the need to represent their orthodoxy. They will try to preach to you. But most of the Muslims I know are very secular. You would never know it when first meeting them. You know it when you find out about their personal restrictions. Don’t invite them to a barbecue because they don’t drink alcohol and the don’t eat pork. Otherwise, they are cool. They don’t abuse their wives and the Americanized Muslim women I know are very liberated and outspoken.

    Then there are the people who identify themselves as Muslims from tradition or heritage, but not by practice. How many of you knew that some of the so called juicy girls in the bars were also Muslim? Maybe near half of the girls from Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan were Muslim. Maybe a tenth of the girls from the Philippines were Muslim; from the southern regions like Mindanao. They have been known to drink vodka, soju, and beer and are great guests at BBQs.

    Secular and non-practicing Muslims are not easily radicalized. But, I imaging if you constantly denigrate them, their beliefs or their heritage, they can become radical. Come to think of it, so can Christians, Jews, Buddhists . . .

    This guy has never deployed and worked a cush job in DC. He does not have PTSD. He has SJS (Sudden Jihad Syndrome). The reports are slowly coming out about this guy’s Islamic extremist beliefs.

    The warning signs were all there about this guy but because of the PC nature of the Army just like the PC nature of the media no one wanted to call this guy what he is and get him out of the Army. Instead they just moved the problem to someone else, Ft. Hood where now 13 soldiers are dead because of it.

    Could you imagine what would happen if an officer got up and gave presentations that bombing abortion clinics and murdering abortion doctors is justified? Or how about an officer counseling their soldiers that bombing abortion clinics and killing gays is justified? Heck look at what happened to this Air Force Colonel for sending out a religious email:

    I can guarantee that if some wacky Christian went on a shooting rampage and shot a bunch of people at a gay convention while yelling anti-gay crap the media and everyone else would not say lets not jump to conclusions. They would be saying a radical ideology led the person to commit the crime and that is what happened in the Hasan case.

    Why is it that people assume someone is insane when they go on a killing rampage like this. You know, sometimes people do really shitty things just because they’re bad. People are selfish, willing to internalize perceived wrongs, and willing to hurt others, even kill, in order to make themselves feel better. Stop calling it crazy and call it what it is, being human. Of course, not everyone shows the willingness to go guns ablazing to satisfy their sense of self-importance. Could be a mere combination of motive and opportunity or it could be something we like to call a sense of morality, cultivated through education to do other than what our base humanity would otherwise lead us to do.

    What he did was his own personel “Muslim Jihad”. “Allahu akbar” was clearly heard from his lips before the firing began, by soldiers on location.
    He murdered unarmed soldiers wearing the same uniform as he.
    The only reason for his action was his religious beliefs.
    He is a “radical Islamic” otherwise know as a Murderer.
    The army was aware of his beliefs and did nothing.
    Political Correctness had a hand in the deaths because of the reluctance of the military to take action. I look forward sadly to watching the cover up as it unfolds.
    My opinion is formed from watching the reports and follow up news coverage.
    How there can be any questions of his motive, sanity or reason for this action is beyond my understanding.
    It was a Terrorist act, performed by a very sane and motivated Terrorist.

    Hey idiots (administrator) didn’t the US invade Afghanistan because of these people? The only fing difference is Hassan didn’t have others with him. The Muslims are still praising the actions of this guy and consider him a hero. To our faces they denounce the actions, but get news from the mid east. Don’t think this guy acted alone, all muslims want to kill infidels, read the koran for Christ’s sake. The koran commands and sanctions for the destruction of everyone who doesn’t convert to islam! Why won’t you believe what it. Are you too ignorant to read and comprehend what is written in so many other historical text? Read the chapter of the Bible titled Joshua, but try to understand what is written. Its all there, but now people just want to “eat icing”.

    I don’t care anymore. I hope the USA keeps getting attacked and your family gets killed and thousands and thousands and thousands get killed by muslims because they are too stupid to know whats going on. America, as a whole, must have a hole in its head.

    but some ignorant do not even read or try to read and do not even follow what god say they claim
    false story and write here better go to school and learn

    to those who do not know about Jesus in Koran
    below verses from Koran

    And indeed, We gave Musa (Moses) the Book and followed him up with a succession of Messengers. And We gave ‘Iesa (Jesus), the son of Maryam (Mary), clear signs and supported him with Ruh-ul-Qudus [Jibrael (Gabriel) ]. Is it that whenever there came to you a Messenger with what you yourselves desired not, you grew arrogant? Some, you disbelieved and some, you killed.

    “We believe in Allah and that which has been sent down to us and that which has been sent down to Ibrahim (Abraham), Isma’il (Ishmael), Ishaque (Isaac), Ya’qub (Jacob), and to Al-Asbat [the twelve sons of Ya'qub (Jacob)], and that which has been given to Musa (Moses) and ‘Iesa (Jesus), and that which has been given to the Prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and to Him we have submitted (in Islam).”

    Then when ‘Iesa (Jesus) came to know of their disbelief, he said: “Who will be my helpers in Allah’s Cause?” Al-Hawariun (the disciples) said: “We are the helpers of Allah; we believe in Allah, and bear witness that we are Muslims (i.e. we submit to Allah).”

    And because of their saying (in boast), “We killed Messiah ‘Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), the Messenger of Allah,” – but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but the resemblance of ‘Iesa (Jesus) was put over another man (and they killed that man), and those who differ therein are full of doubts. They have no (certain) knowledge, they follow nothing but conjecture. For surely; they killed him not [i.e. 'Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary)

    Verily, We have inspired you (O Muhammad SAW) as We inspired Nuh (Noah) and the Prophets after him; We (also) inspired Ibrahim (Abraham), Isma'il (Ishmael), Ishaque (Isaac), Ya'qub (Jacob), and Al-Asbat [the twelve sons of Ya'qub (Jacob)], ‘Iesa (Jesus), Ayub (Job), Yunus (Jonah), Harun (Aaron), and Sulaiman (Solomon), and to Dawud (David) We gave the Zabur (Psalms).

    And in their footsteps, We sent ‘Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), confirming the Taurat (Torah) that had come before him, and We gave him the Injeel (Gospel), in which was guidance and light and confirmation of the Taurat (Torah) that had come before it, a guidance and an admonition for Al-Muttaqun (the pious – see V.2:2).

    And Zakariya (Zachariya), and Yahya (John) and ‘Iesa (Jesus) and Iliyas (Elias), each one of them was of the righteous.

    And (remember) when We took from the Prophets their covenant, and from you (O Muhammad SAW), and from Nuh (Noah), Ibrahim (Abraham), Musa (Moses), and ‘Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary). We took from them a strong covenant.

    And when ‘Iesa (Jesus) came with (Our) clear Proofs, he said: “I have come to you with Al-Hikmah (Prophethood), and in order to make clear to you some of the (points) in which you differ, therefore fear Allah and obey me,

    Then, We sent after them, Our Messengers, and We sent ‘Iesa (Jesus) – son of Maryam (Mary), and gave him the Injeel (Gospel). And We ordained in the hearts of those who followed him, compassion and mercy. But the Monasticism which they invented for themselves, We did not prescribe for them, but (they sought it) only to please Allah therewith, but that they did not observe it with the right observance. So We gave those among them who believed, their (due) reward, but many of them are Fasiqun (rebellious, disobedient to Allah).

    And (remember) when ‘Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), said: “O Children of Israel! I am the Messenger of Allah unto you confirming the Taurat [(Torah) which came] before me, and giving glad tidings of a Messenger to come after me, whose name shall be Ahmad. But when he (Ahmad i.e. Muhammad SAW) came to them with clear proofs, they said: “This is plain magic.”
    you who believe! Be you helpers (in the Cause) of Allah as said ‘Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), to Al-Hawariun (the disciples): “Who are my helpers (in the Cause) of Allah?” Al-Hawarieen (the disciples) said: “We are Allah’s helpers” (i.e. we will strive in His Cause!). Then a group of the Children of Israel believed and a group disbelieved. So We gave power to those who believed against their
    enemies and they became the uppermost

    Untill now, I have not cared what “good book” someone read.

    But YOU have convinced me that the Koran must be an evil book.
    It is a violent religion. Therefore it’s followers must be a violent people.

    Blaming Islam the religion is like the pot calling the kettle black. For example:

    If your own full brother, or your son or daughter, or your beloved wife, or you intimate friend, entices you secretly to serve other gods, whom you and your fathers have not known, gods of any other nations, near at hand or far away, from one end of the earth to the other: do not yield to him or listen to him, nor look with pity upon him, to spare or shield him, but kill him. (Deuteronomy 13:7-12)

    The Bible promotes the killing of non-believers and sinners just as much as the Koran does. Spend some time reading.

    You cannot claim the morale high ground as a hypocrite. These so called “Holy” books are nothing but a collection of excuses invented by man to rationalize his actions toward other human beings. AS long as we have bands of people called Christians, Muslims, Jews or whatever there will never be peace and equality on this planet. never.

    The venomous response I am sure to get from this post is just an example of what I am talking about.

    Look up the New Testament dude.

    Mainstream Christinity has been done with what you claim for a very long time. I only go to service to pacify HH6, but I have never heard a preacher entice me to anything other than nicer to my neighbors, give to the poor, help the weak and be…..gasp nice.

    I grew up with Muslim friends. They kept their beliefs but didn’t push them on others. “I can’t eat that but please go ahead…” Just like good christians.

    However for less than 1% of the population, there have been many “terrorist like” not allowed to say terrorist activities conducted by Muslims in the US.

    Eric Rudolph and Jackass Pastor Phelps get cited as moral equivalents for Muslim terrorism. Sorry, it just doesn’t hold water. 95% of the US is Christian. .3 or .4 percent Muslim, re-do your numbers on incidents per capita, they are not even close. Ask me what I think about Abortion versus killing abortion doctors.

    I’m not giving up my Muslim friends and I’m not going to put them in camps as you bogusly claim, but can we at least talk with the same level of contempt and action against hate Mosques as we do about the Religious right who usually only want to bore you to death?

    Further information is now coming out about who put down the Terrorist Major.
    The “Hero Mother” was first on site. First to put a bullit in him.
    Before he put her down. He was still standing and firing.
    Then a second civilian Police Officer arrived name Mark Todd.
    Officer Todd fired and hit the Terroist twice and put him down. Kicked the pistol away and handcuffed him. Then tended his wounds.
    I wonder if the MSM will give him any press time. Not that he needs it. He knows what he did.

    story of Mary in Koran 19. Mariam

    for those who still believe Islam is against their believe learn true story from Koran and clean your mind
    from heat

    And mention in the Book (the Quran, O Muhammad SAW , the story of) Maryam (Mary), when she withdrew in seclusion from her family to a place facing east.

    She placed a screen (to screen herself) from them; then We sent to her Our Ruh [angel Jibrael (Gabriel)], and he appeared before her in the form of a man in all respects.
    She said: “Verily! I seek refuge with the Most Beneficent (Allah) from you, if you do fear Allah.”
    (The angel) said: “I am only a Messenger from your Lord, (to announce) to you the gift of a righteous son.”
    He said: “So (it will be), your Lord said: ‘That is easy for Me (Allah): And (We wish) to appoint him as a sign to mankind and a mercy from Us (Allah), and it is a matter (already) decreed, (by Allah).”
    So she conceived him, and she withdrew with him to a far place (i.e. Bethlehem valley about 4-6 miles from Jerusalem).
    And the pains of childbirth drove her to the trunk of a date-palm. She said: “Would that I had died before this, and had been forgotten and out of sight!”
    Then [the babe 'Iesa (Jesus) or Jibrael (Gabriel)] cried unto her from below her, saying: “Grieve not! Your Lord has provided a water stream under you;
    “So eat and drink and be glad, and if you see any human being, say: ‘Verily! I have vowed a fast unto the Most Beneficent (Allah) so I shall not speak to any human being this day.”
    Then she brought him (the baby) to her people, carrying him. They said: “O Mary! Indeed you have brought a thing Fariya (an unheard mighty thing)
    O sister (i.e. the like) of Harun (Aaron) [not the brother of Musa (Moses), but he was another pious man at the time of Maryam (Mary)]! Your father was not a man who used to commit adultery, nor your mother was an unchaste woman.”
    : Then she pointed to him. They said: “How can we talk to one who is a child in the cradle?”
    He ['Iesa (Jesus)] said: Verily! I am a slave of Allah, He has given me the Scripture and made me a Prophet;”
    “And He has made me blessed wheresoever I be, and has enjoined on me Salat (prayer), and Zakat, as long as I live.”
    “And dutiful to my mother, and made me not arrogant, unblest.
    Such is ‘Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary). (it is) a statement of truth, about which they doubt (or dispute).
    It befits not (the Majesty of) Allah that He should beget a son [this refers to the slander of Christians against Allah, by saying that 'Iesa (Jesus) is the son of Allah]. Glorified (and Exalted be He above all that they associate with Him). When He decrees a thing, He only says to it, “Be!” and it is.
    ['Iesa (Jesus) said]: “And verily Allah is my Lord and your Lord. So worship Him (Alone). That is the Straight Path. (Allah’s Religion of Islamic Monotheism which He did ordain for all of His Prophets).” [Tafsir At-Tabari]

    WHY did this TERRORIST MAJOR call “Allahu Akbar” before murdering twelve unarmed soldiers?

    You can quote verses all day, but it means nothing. The actions of your religion’s followers speak much loader than you.

    That Terrorist was an educated man. A Major in the Army. What did it gain him to turn to violence? Seventy virgins in heaven? Couldn’t find a woman here?

    That Terrorist Doctor did not lose control. He was very much in control. He intended to be killed in the service of allah. He called out, “Allahu Akbar” before he murdered twelve unarmed american soldiers.

    There is a high probability that Major Hasan was well-known to be screwy to begin with… socially, politically and religiously… and, with 20/20 hindsight, a lot of people are going to be coming out and saying he was a whacko. A few might say they couldn’t see him doing this… many are going to say they could COMPLETELY see him doing this.

    The official military line will try to paint it as a crime rather than Islamic-motivated terror by a known anti-American follower of Islam in the Army. It will be something like…

    “This was a criminal act of a troubled individual and, in no way, reflects upon Muslim or Middle Eastern servicemembers who believe in peace and stand united against crimes such as this. In this case, the system failed and we missed the warning signs but we are now redoubling our efforts to insure this type of crime is never repeated.”

    The key here is that leadership is scared to death to possibly offend any Middle Easterners or Muslims so a guy in his position practically has to be running around yelling jihad and shooting people before anyone in a leadership position will admit there might… MIGHT… be a problem (but not a Muslim-based problem) that needs looked at.

    The result will be standdowns and additional training that will cause irritation and inconvenience to whites, East Asians, Hispanics, Blacks, Christians, Buddhists, Wiccans… etc… which will be big on diversity and tolerance but tiptoe around important issues like that it might be a good idea to do something more than hand-wringing about antisocial Islamic Middle Easterners who go around hatefully badmouthing America from inside the military.

    Of course, it is probably better that way because if something is actually done, it will likely result in terrorist charges against Private Billy-Bob for for getting his tax return and ranting about the IRS… much in the same way TSA likes to strip search little old ladies in wheelchairs.

    My vote is that this guy was a known loon (what psychologist/psychiatrist isn’t?) and Islam was his crutch… and, as the most vocal and media-encourage branches of Islam incite this kind of action and evoke a certain kind of personal power to losers, he was drawn to it like a fly to a turd.

    …and everyone in a leadership position buried their head in the sand to keep from offending anyone.

    I still say he was and is a Terrorist. I do not see him as a soldier in any way. In WWII I believe they were call traitors and hung. Before my time.

    Because of the Army’s Political Correctness Mind Set, I will not be shocked if this happens again, but likely not soon.

    Army “Leadership” running scared. Unable to do the mission without offending some group.
    When I enlisted there was only ONE group, and it was Green. Sadly when I retired that was nolonger the case.
    The Army is so divided into it’s separate identities that it has lost the only one that counted. IMHO

    The Army has to talk so much about army “values” because
    it is so “diverse” in its groupings that the individual groups
    have to be TOLD what the Army’s values are. And we must be carefull
    not to offend anyone either.

    I’m not sure I understand what the Army could have or should have done. If this guy had a security clearance, it could have been suspended for no other reason than concern over his extremist views. But, do psychiatrists require a security clearance in the military?

    The political correctness some complain about is institutionalized in our First Amendment. He is reported to have said and wrote offensive things, however, those who knew him said, while they were concerned about his attempts to rationalize Jihadist views, he was otherwise a very polite and neighbourly man who showed no signs of violent intents.

    Every time there is a mass killing, people come out in hindsight and talk about ‘the signs’ that were missed. Columbine? Virginia Tech? They all had signs. How many people do you come across in your daily life that exhibit those same signs? Go ahead and report them and their signs and see what happens. My bet is, most likely nothing. You don’t get locked up for saying or writing offensive things. First Amendment, remember?

    In the military today, I imagine it may be possible to put someone out for having and expressing extremist and offensive views. But, I doubt that happens often.

    We have an Internet that allows anyone to publicly express any views. I read comments that I consider to be extremists everywhere. Some here on this blog. Some, maybe from military people. Are they from someone expressing childish bluster, or should they be considered real national security concerns?
    Am I obligated to report ‘the signs’ every time I think I see them? Should our national security agencies be required to investigate them all?

    The Internet is a big place and there are just too many idiots and wackos out there. I would guess that only a very small fraction of them are any threat, but I don’t think our security services have the resources to vette them all.

    In the military, when you join, That first amendment you spoke of now falls under the military Command. If they command you not to speak of something, you don’t.

    Political Correctness (PC) is NOT, repeat NOT institutionalized in our First Amendment. It is the right of Free Speech. They are not the same thing.

    The First Amendment says that I may speek whatever I want, no matter who it pisses off. Political Correctness LIMITS free speech. Hope I did not OFFEND you.

    As stated above, when you join the military you may, at times, lose it. Just a fact.

    The fear — that’s correct FEAR that military “leadership” has today, is that of being thought of as racist – sexist – or any other “ist”. This includes any HINT of religious prejudice.

    You better have it on tape and have witnesses, or any advancement is over.

    Do you really BELIEVE what you hear the military in uniform say, concerning our latest Terrorist Attack?

    If you do, I have a bridge for you. They are in a panic right now. How do they do the mission, protect the Troops and STILL not offend any of the many “groups” in the military.

    I wish them luck with that one.

    Joe,

    Freedom of speech doesn’t apply in the military, just ask someone if they tried to hang a Nazi flag in the barracks room what would happen to them. If this guy gave presentations about white supremacy I can guarantee that someone would have done something about it. Here is why no one did anything about Hasan:

    But Finnell said no one filed a formal, written complaint about Hasan’s comments out of fear of appearing discriminatory.

    http://cbs11tv.com/wireapnewstx/Fort.Hood.suspect.2.1298946.html

    However, when you report a white supremacist no one has the fear of being accused of being discriminatory. Shouldn’t we have the same standards for reporting Islamic extremists as we do with white supremacists?

    JoeC,

    You make very good points.

    The First Amendment is sacred ground… it does and should protect the right to speak one’s ideas freely without risk of being “locked up”.

    But with freedom, comes responsibility… be it the responsibility to separate personal feelings from chosen career… or the responsibility to suppress personal feelings in the interests of social interaction.

    While Major Hasan certainly has the right to freely speak his mind as a United States citizen, his vocal (even pushy) viewpoints are inconsistent with a career in the United States military.

    This should have been recognized, condemned and acted upon by the leadership of an organization which requires uniformity in purpose to function correctly.

    The warning signs were not so much that he was going to go on a killing spree but that he was a liability to the mission.

    If an officer walked around telling everyone who would listen that all nigras should be hung or all women deserve a good gang raping, to the point that others complained, would leadership have shown the same indifference?

    This is the essence, and danger, of Political Correctness… some groups are more correct than others.

    You ask what leadership should have done.

    That’s a good question that I don’t really have a good answer for… being that government action against thought crime seems to be abused more than used.

    What would they do to vocal racists and women-haters?

And you know he will plead “not guilty” and then he’ll use the insanity road saying people called him “camel jockey”, “rag head” and “stupid, worthless, pos, muslim”. If the army were to courts martial him, they would never give him death because the muslims in the army would feel discriminated against and a group might protest.

    Hopefully, The gangs in prison will have him on soap police call for the rest of his life, but then he may like it. I wonder if the gangs will fight over who will get to cut his head off with a steak knife.

    Oh yea, I like what B. Hussain Obama said. “He will pay for his crimes”. This has a great deal of meaning to the muslims as the guy didn’t comit any crime in the eyes of a muslim; so sayeth the crazy soiled toilet paper some call the kOrAn.

    My comment was meant as a defense of the innocents. Some of those attacked after 9/11 weren’t even Muslims. They were just thought to be Muslim by their attackers. And even actual Muslims don’t deserve to be targeted for no other reason than they are Muslims.

    Since you have a friend who is Muslim, I obviously was not addressing you. But everyone is not as worldly or tolerant.

    I am reminded of the thousands of Muslims who have and still do server honorably and heroically in the military.

    Here is more on this story:

    Two government officials, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the case on the record, said the Washington-based joint terrorism task force overseen by the FBI was notified of communications between Hasan and the imam overseas, and the information was turned over to a Defense Criminal Investigative Service employee assigned to the task force. The communications were gathered by investigators beginning in December 2008 and continuing into early this year.

    That defense investigator wrote up an assessment of Hasan after reviewing the communications and the Army major’s personnel file, according to these officials. The assessment concluded Hasan did not merit further investigation — in large part because his communications with the imam were centered on a research paper about the effects of combat in Iraq and Afghanistan and the investigator determined that Hasan was in fact working on such a paper, the officials said.

    The disclosure came as questions swirled about whether opportunities were missed to head off the massacre in which 13 died and 29 were wounded last Thursday — a familiar, early stage in the investigation of headline-grabbing crimes when public officials involved in a case often speak anonymously as they try to shift any blame to rivals in other agencies.

    Let me play Devil’s Advocate for the Army now:

    The Army has a shortage of qualified personnel in certain fields. I imagine psychiatry is one of them. It is reported that this guy obviously wanted to get out of his assignment to the Middle East. He made requests to get out of the Army. The Army get reports that his views are incompatible with those of the Army.

    Based on just that information, how often do you you think Army personnel boards come across people that fit that profile? Would it really have been so simple to expect the Army to just let him go?

    Congressmen are weak, you of all people should know that. No congressman has ever started a war, but they have driven drunk and killed people who work for them.

    Individuals bring about change, like your buddy hasan there at Ft. Bragg, he has brought about change, the 9/11 hijackassesers, they brought about change. The infantryman pulling the trigger in iRaq and aFghanistan brings change, the bombidier in a B-52 who drops bombs on mUslims, he brings about change. Congressman, what does he do?

    Also, Camel meat is too oiley, I guess thats why mUslims are oiley themselves. Don’t mUslims eat goat testicals and bile duct from sheep?

    Why do so many mUslims flee the desert and flock to so many other countries???????? Is it because of the lamb nuts and camel burgers?? Or is it because the middle east sucks?

    Hard to say? Hard to say? Is it as hard to say as oh my God there’s a man in front of my desk with a flamethrower?

    i think why some Muslim flee to other
    country ? Indian flee to England because
    English gave them pass to their country as old friend but English people now do not
    like this .France and other europe country
    gave pass to north African also now they do not like it is from the beginning politician mistake and now America giving green card see the internet full of green card sale and your right by the help of Allah GOD individuals can bring change
    also camel meat is oily true but young camel meat not oily write in Google

    camel milk in Holland

    may be you make camel business

    The British Labour Party now admits that they unleashed the flood gates of immigration on the UK to force it into diversity.

    Oops. It didn’t work. What a surprise.

    That’s because the immigrants all came to The Mud Island looking for the dole, and intending to ethnically cleanse the UK with their exploding birth rate, and the UK’s rapidly declining one.

    Britain is truly no longer Great, and I do not say that with any sense of joy.

    I guess American’s have many sayings similar to “aLlah aKbahr” some are: Bombs away, fire mission, open fire, fire for effect, “On my mark turn your key”, free to fire.

    Nice thought ABDALL. But it will never happen. America has been too weakened by (Political Correctness).
    It would take a major mind shift, and American just isn’t strong enough to do that. We want so very much to be liked. I believe it must be a form of insanity that effects much of America.

    I’m sure it will be America’s downfall, in the end.

    No way, habibi.

    Deporting people for their religious beliefs- HELL no.

    Deporting them for committing brutal and violent acts or inciting others to- I’m fine with that.

    If you are an American or come to America, and you worship sticks, rocks, or the flying spaghetti monster, it isn’t any of my business. Unless you try to force it on me. Then you’ll have a problem. If I want to know more about your religion, I will ask. I have had PLENTY of discussions with Moslems on Christianity- and vice versa- but only because one side of the discussion ASKED QUESTIONS about the other- neither side ATTACKED each other. That’s a damn good start.

    Anyone WILL have a hard time no matter where he goes if he’s the ‘odd guy out’ and tries to FORCE people to accept him and his beliefs.

    Most Americans- and normal people anywhere- just want to be left the hell alone to get on with their lives.

    Most of the Moslems who came to America in the 19th and 20th century quickly figured out that to not be looked at as ‘funny’ and get chased out of town out of fear or ignorance (it’s on both sides of these discussions) that they would have to adopt some of the ways and styles of their adopted land. Most did quite well. They kept their families and ethnic ties, but in a few generations, those families spoke English primarily and likely none of their ancestral language (a shame, but there are only 24 hours in a day- you have to make a living).

    Culture and diversity are fascinating and do add a LOT to the great USA- but that also requires that we all have the same basic goals of living and working together as neighbors. There is some give and take- you won’t like the bells from the Church ringing early on Sunday, perhaps, and I can sure as hell do without the call to prayer outside my window on speakers 5 times a day. That’s where people work out differences.

    When some nut sack pulls a gun, shouts religious stuff, and starts blasting, expect some pissed off people.

    Some people(s) are never going to get along with other people(s). But some of the people of those people(s) CAN look past all that, and make OK neighbors.

    That is all.
