This almost has to be some type of terror attack. One man with two handguns shoots 42 people? Drudge is listing the soldier as Major Malik Nadal Hassan.

According to the press conference held by the Army thirty minutes ago, there was one shooter and two people are being held as possible co-conspirators.

One would think a base would be very secure, and they are, however, a crime like this would be very easy to perpetrate. Bases are secure, but once you are in, that is where most security ends. It would be ideal as a terror plot, to have sleepers join the military with these types of plans. Not saying that is what happened, but it is a possibility.

If this is radical Islam's way to fight America, then let the war begin. Bunch of frikin cowards. We have Mosques in TO preaching nothing but utter contempt and hate towards all the infidels.

Those days are over.


Cor: Steve, you have proven yourself to be a tremendous whack job.

Look at his AMA record...

Nidal Malik Hasan , MD (Non-Member)

Primary Specialty (Self Designated)(note):
PSYCHIATRY

Location:

Killeen, TX 76541



Nidal instead of Nadal. Anyone know who Nidal is?


Abu Nidal (Arabic: أبو نضال‎) (May 1937 – August 16, 2002), born Sabri Khalil al-Banna (Arabic: صبري خليل البنا), was the founder of Fatah–The Revolutionary Council (Arabic: فتح المجلس الثوري), a militant Palestinian group more commonly known as the Abu Nidal Organization (ANO).

[1] At the height of his power in the 1970s and 1980s, Abu Nidal, or "father of the struggle", was widely regarded as the most dangerous and ruthless of the Palestinian political leaders.[2] He told Der Spiegel in 1985: "I am the evil spirit which moves around only at night causing ... nightmares."[3]

What a tragedy.

Nothing much to say here other that I feel for the victims and their families.

Major Nadal Malik Hasan, a 39-year-old Muslim convert, was born and educated in Virginia. He is a psychiatrist who worked at Walter Reed for six years (and got a poor performance evaluation there). Hasan was transferred to Ft. Hood and worked at the psych ward there. He complained about deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan. Fox has interviewed someone who worked with him at Ft. Hood (Terry Lee) who says he was a harsh critic of U.S. foreign policy who said Muslims had a right to stand up and fight against the aggressor in Iraq and Afghanistan — i.e., us
