Just another day in politically correct America.
Everyone is so afraid to call it what it is. Well, it is what it is folks....
Ft. Hood, TX was an act of terrorism committed by another Muslim male extremist.
Camouflaged as an American military officer, Maj. Hasan was on a violent mission, all in the name of Allah.
Facts are coming forth daily from many sources, but the worst part is, the FBI knew of him and his internet postings. If the government had prior knowledge or at least suspected him of terrorist activities or links, why did they not act upon that information? Being in the military really affords you no privacy and some would say, no constitutional rights. How is it that his actions, musings and vocal opposition to the wars, were not heeded as potential threats to his higher ups?
I am sure Hasan will be praised throughout the radical Muslim world for his service to Allah and for killing the infidel Americans. Here, it only serves to make us angry. But where will our American anger be directed? How will we react, if at all?
Meanwhile, this Veteran's Day will become an even more somber moment in our nation's history.

He was in violation of his oath of office long before his act. Further, other officers within his units knew. This can be seen as a command failure. Probable cause? Political correctness fostering timidity.
So true, WSF. It's evident that the Army dropped the ball on this one. Hasan violated the Hippocratical oath so blatantly and the military turned a blind eye. Why? Fear of a potential backlash of accusations, hinting at religious intolerance?
Who knows their reasoning. But heads will surely roll.
If Hasan was acting in any manner unbecoming of both an officer and a physician, they should have booted his ass long ago.
