Fort Hood Massacre: Islamic Terrorism

  Share This Story

By

He prayed every day at the Muslim Community Center in Silver Spring, a devout Muslim who, despite asking to be discharged from the U.S. Army, was on the eve of his first deployment to war. Yesterday, authorities said Maj. Nidal M. Hasan, a 39-year-old Arlington-born psychiatrist, shot and killed 13 people at Fort Hood, Tex.

In an interview, his aunt, Noel Hasan of Falls Church, said he had endured name-calling and harassment about his Muslim faith for years after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks and had sought for several years to be discharged from the military." Read More

Maj. Nadal M. Hasan opened fire on his fellow soldiers, killing 13, and injuring dozens more.

Our warriors in the battlefields in Iraq and Afghanistan expect to come under gunfire, and they look forward to returning to the safety and sanctuary of their bases in America. There is a special place reserved in hell for a soldier who opens fire on his comrades in a military base in the homeland.

Hasan's crime is compounded by the fact that he's a psychiatrist, who is trained to help military personnel deal with the horrors of war. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who have taken the Hippocratic Oath: First, do no harm.

The talking heads on the cable networks keep asking: What could possibly have motivated Hasan to commit such a horrific crime? Their desperate attempts to be politically correct prevents them from stating the obvious: Hasan is a Muslim terrorist who perpetrated his outrage because he considers non-Muslims infidel dogs worthy of death.

Hasan was scheduled to be deployed to Iraq in the near future. Hasan didn't want to go to war against his fellow Muslims, and so he massacred his fellow soldiers to avoid being deployed abroad.

Hasan was on the radar of law enforcement authorities because he had posted message online comparing Islamic suicide bombers to Japanese kamikaze pilots. "To say that this soldier committed suicide is inappropriate, he wrote."It's more appropriate to say he is a brave hero that sacrificed his life for a more noble cause."

It is crystal clear that the Fort Hood massacre was the work of a Muslim terrorist. The American public is losing confidence in the mainstream media because they refuse to tell the truth. If it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it's a duck. Hasan is a Muslim who feels more affinity with al Qaeda than he does with his fellow soldiers, and his despicable and deplorable act was a clear case of Muslim Terrorism.
