WHAT DOES THE FT. HOOD SHOOTER HAVE TO DO WITH 9/11?

We are uncovering more pieces of the puzzle.  Last week I caught hell from my listeners for daring to mention that the man who killed 13 soldiers at Ft. Hood is a Muslim.  Did his religion ... his peaceful, serene religion ... have anything to do with his actions?  Well a report from London found something very interesting.

 

Nidal Malik Hasan worshipped at a mosque that was led by radical imam who turned out to be a "spiritual advisor" to three hijackers of 9/11.  According to the report, Hasan attended a mosque in Great Falls, Virginia in 2001 at the same time as two of the 9/11 terrorists.  The imam is a man named Anwar al-Awlaki.  He is known for, among other things, supporting attacks on British troops and backing terrorist organizations.

 

Here are more of the details:

 

As investigators look at Hasan's motives and mindset, his attendance at the mosque could be an important piece of the jigsaw. Al-Awlaki moved to Dar al-Hijrah as imam in January, 2001, from the west coast, and three months later the September 11 hijackers Nawaf al-Hamzi and Hani Hanjour began attending his services. A third hijacker attended his services in California.

 

Hasan was praying at Dar al-Hijrah at about the same time, and the FBI will now want to investigate whether he met the two terrorists.

 

Charles Allen, a former under-secretary for intelligence at the Department of Homeland Security, has described al-Awlaki, who now lives in Yemen, as an "al-Qaeda supporter, and former spiritual leader to three of the September 11 hijackers... who targets US Muslims with radical online lectures encouraging terrorist attacks from his new home in Yemen".

 

OK ... excuse me, but I have a question.  Here we have this Army Major - a Muslim - a Muslim who apparently posted some rather radical and violent messages on the Internet.  Now we learn that he very well have attended this radical Mosque in Virginia.  All of this ... and he's still in a position to purchase handguns and murder 13 Americans at Ft. Hood?  Where in the hell were our intelligence forces while all of this was going on?  Do we have another incidence here of various intelligence agencies keeping tabs on parts of this Muslim goon's life, but not communicating with each other?

 

Investigate Hasan?  Fine ... do it.  Perform an autopsy on his, as far as I'm concerned, before he dies.  Fly Dr. G to Texas with her bolt cutters.  But while we're at it let's investigate the investigators to see what they were doing while this Islamic goon was plotting murder.  I don't know any of the people killed yet I'm just mad as hell over this.  I can't imagine how I would feel if I was a friend or a member of a family involved.

    That's like saying Nazism was incompatible with America, so we should have pulled out of Europe during World War II. It doesn't make any sense.

    All these people who say we should never have been trying to influence societies in the Middle East in the first place, really gripe my cookies. "They just wanted to be left alone!" Yeah, left alone to freely massacre millions of innocent people, force women to submit to rape or face death, and slaughter 'infidels' for no reason other than that the victim wouldn't convert to Islam. "Why couldn't we just leave them ALONNNNE????" Reminds me of that Britney whiner on YouTube.

    If we'd left them alone, they would have completed their genocide, moved on to take over the entire Middle East, solidified their power, gotten their hands on nukes, and then come after Europe and the U.S. "Leaving them alone" was not a smart or sane option.

    "Young men are taught that they will never find happiness on Earth, they can't look at women, and they can't drink booze. They're taught that once they die in violent-asz jihad, they'll go to paradise where 72 virgins will screw them for eternity."

    You know, I've been to church once or twice in my life too and the parallels about what is promised by Islam and Christianity is strikingly similar (eternal life BS - something we all have already btw), the primary difference is that there are no virgins promised to be in heaven (because they are all forgiven is my bet).

    Seems to me that Islam has a better deal going than Christianity. I'd bet that there are PLENTY of gullible Christians out there who would bomb abortion clinics if they were promised only 32 virgins....but I digress...

  • Remember Dr. Tiller?
    Do you remember the abortion doctor that was killed while attending his church by some anti-choice "Christian" lunatic? Do you remember when the Right demanded that this case not be politicized, that it shouldn't be used to score cheap shots on the abortion debate, to think of the victim's grieving family and not use them for political purposes?

    Does anyone remember when a guard for a Holocaust museum was shot and killed by a white supremacist who was also a Birther, complaining that Obama's birth certificate and other documents have not been made public?

    Does anyone remember Timothy McVeigh?

    It would be profoundly wrong to take these heinous crimes and condemn entire movements that are either loosely or closely associated to these criminals. To take what happened at Fort Hood to be proof that the entire religion of Islam should be outlawed or prohibit Muslims from serving in the military is un-American as well as hypocritical.

    I know these words will fall on deaf ears belonging to those who steadfastly believe that the US is and should be conducting a crusade against Islam, whether actively violent against the US or not. I do not speak for their sake but for the sake of those who would listen and reason. This country's true enemy is the one who believes without thought and who judges without mercy.

    I hope Hasan gets exactly what he deserves: a fair trial and, upon receiving a guilty conviction, a quick death.

    God bless our soldiers and law enforcement who serve honorably and with dignity.

  • Good post Todd
    But as the same time, I wonder if it is our right to ask someone entering our armed forces or converting after joining, are they going to have a problem if asked to fight. Considering their religious views are out there for all to read. I think in that case, that would be reasonable, not profiling. IF there were ever an Amish person wanting to join (has there ever?) I would expect the same questioning so I'm not just picking on Muslims, just any religion that might not view our military in a favorable light.

    But this guy had issues and they knew some of what he was doing (but did nothing about) so I think it's fair to ask more questions.

    ...then doesn't that make the efforts in the middle east to westernize(some might say democratize or Americanize) them....worthless?

  • cultural differences
    Most people will write this off as a lunatic who just snapped, and they'd be partly correct in assuming that. However, you would have to use that same rationale for half of the Muslim world, considering they hang suicide bomber/martyr posters in their houses (like they're celebrities). The problem is that these cultists didn't just "snap". Their entire culture snapped around the 7th century, and it is now a way of life.

    Young men are taught that they will never find happiness on Earth, they can't look at women, and they can't drink booze. They're taught that once they die in violent-asz jihad, they'll go to paradise where 72 virgins will screw them for eternity. What a head-f@#$ing that is!!

    When some of them leave that culture, they're so completely f@#%ed up that they can't assimilate to any other culture....total outcasts. They go completely overboard...absolute deviancy.

    My ex-girlfriend knew two guys from Lebanon, and being the devout Christian that she is, she thought it would be neighborly to invite them over for some dinner. Their personalities were dead ringers for Borat....freaking uncanny. Unbeknownst to us, they had taken it upon themselves to invite two cocaine sluts to her house. After dinner, they informed me, in front of my girlfriend, that I could lay on these women if I wanted. I was honored to be included in their cultural traditions, so I asked my girlfriend for her permission. Not only did I not get to lay on the sluts, but she wouldn't let me lay on her that night either.

  • relford criteria, service connected, UCMJ
    This Major Hanan is done. I'm not a JAG but I seriously doubt there is any way that the ACLU or some other scum sucking liberal pansy organization can get this to go anywhere but a General Court Martial. I've got to wonder, the officer conducting the Article 32 investigation is going to need a good vacation when he gets done. If I had that job I'm sure I'd probably blow a gasket. FBI was looking at this guy first? Why would not CID be involved as well? Whatever happened to the spirit of cooperation???? How many more is the FBI looking at and just sitting on it because Holder doesn't want to offend a Muslim???? How may more people have to die for political correctness. My blood is already starting to boil.

    This young man, either the rope or the bullet. Either way, he's toast and good for him.

  • @Lynn
    Lynn, If he's tried under the UCMJ he'll face the death penalty as well. And he shouldn't be able to tie it up in apeals ad nauseum. He'd also be tried by a jury of soldiers who lost brothers and sisters in arms to this low-life, not a single civilian on the panel. Not to mention that if he is tried as a civilian, it would be a huge blow to the military's ability to maintain discipline through the UCMJ, regardless of the outcome, by setting a precedent that a soldier could get a civilian trial for violation of military law.

  • where are the leftists on this one
    Where are the leftists like Brian Fantana, Hugo's Ghost, 3mbw and the like. According to them, Nidal Hasan "al-Mujahid" had according to the left a constitutional right to bear arms. What are the leftists going to do now? According to their logic (now leftist and logic is a true oxymoron), are they going to say that the military can't bear arms now?

    "My only hope is that he is tried as a civilian."

    Lynn,

    My hope is that he tried under the UCMJ in a military courts marshal. If he is convicted of multiple counts of murder he should receive the death penalty. In the military when there is a capital case and conviction, the number of appeals is significantly reduced and the penalty phase is swiftly carried out. This is a member of the Armed Forces committing multiple crimes on a military reservation. I don't want any civilian intervention.

  • Religion of Peace
    It has become very apparent that the "Religion of Peace" is more than religion. It transcends national boundaries and sovereignty, trumps political ideology and and unites otherwise warring neighbors.

    I find it quite telling that if Catholics or Baptists or even Presbyterians, no matter how small the group was, the whole religion would be tagged as terrorists if they committed some of the atrocities in the name of Baptists.

    Muslims live their lives governed and directed by religion. It seems that the MSM attributes these characteristics to the "religious right" and take any and all opportunities to degrade and ostracize them for their "radical" religious views. Can you imagine how long the Amish would last in this country if they decided to bomb something and called on all Amish everywhere to join in.

    There is something deadly wrong with the direction this country is marching to. The MSM, in my view, shares the bulk of the responsibility for the downfall of this country. Instead of being the forth column keeping the government honest, they have decided to influence the political landscape to manipulate the outcome via PC.

    The shooting at Ft,Hood could have been avoided if the military had used some common sense and removed this guy via courts marshal for treason( http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/treason?db=luna ). When you make public statements contrary to your sworn allegiance.

    As a Gulf War veteran I swore to uphold the Constitution as well as to protect this Nation from enemies both foreign and DOMESTIC. Key word there, DOMESTIC. When will our elected officials and government employees (who have sworn this same oath) continue burying their heads to the threat that is Islam? It boggles the mind how PC (an idea espoused by Chairman Mao BTW)we've become. To those elected officials and government employees, take notice .... American citizens are close to being fed up with those who do not honor the oath. Defend this country from all enemies, BOTH FOREIGN AND DOMSETIC ... or get the hell out of the way so patriots can clean house.

  • Blame game?
    When Bush was in office, the radicals would be all over it, and quick to blame Bush. So, would it be fair for us to start blaming Obama, or is it too early?

    Regardless, of who's to blame, somebody dropped the ball on this, and if I was a family member of one of those who were killed, I would be HIGHLY PISSED right now at this news. I know it's still early in the investigation, and there's lots more to be uncovered, but this should not have been allowed to happen. I wouldn't be surprised to hear wrongful or negligent death lawsuits brought by the end of the week.

Not sure how to justify denying him his rights under the constitutuion until he has done something to lose them. The old slippery slope argument comes into play big time here. His worship at a mosque that may have been attended by thousands of others is protected under our laws. His speech on the net is protected short of direct threats. If we start stepping in to take away rights you know what is next. Anyone who went to church with a abortion doctors killer could see their guns, association, and speech under the microscope using the exact same logic. On this very site there have been posters who have talked about literally killing liberals. People have talked about physcially inmtimidating those they disagree with politically. OKay for them to be targeted next and have their rights taken away as citizens before they have actuallt done anything other than talk? I want this guy DEAD...the worse the better as far as I am concerned. I just think it is playing with fire when you start talking about taking away anyones rights.

  • Wouldn't that would be a biopsy.
    I'm fairly sure an autopsy can only be done on a dead thing.

  • Liberal political correctness is a death sentence
    We just lost some really good people to an Islamo-fascist terrorist. We are so blinded by our "political correctness." Our officers are paralyzed by all of this liberal dogma of tolerance for other's views, even if they are treasonous. Now there's an investigation being conducted and it looks like the media is doing the investigating because our FBI is hamstrung by the liberal leaders of Justice Department, Homeland Security and the Oval office of the White House. This is getting utterly insane. We can't call a duck a duck anymore. Now a duck is a cow because our liberal administration says it is.

    We need to wake up and realize that sometimes, it's ok to profile. Sometimes, it's ok to step in and say "this is wrong." This is just nuts. It's really nuts.

  • We had it coming
    Political correctness B.S. is going to get many, many more people killed in this country. We can thank all of the moronic naive liberals for this.

  • Prevention?
    If you're going to imprison folks for "thinking about it", we'd all be in jail. Now that he's presumeably gone and done it, let the booger be fairly tried, and (assuming conviction), then be taken to a public place of execution and put to death (there is statistical evidence that supports the assertion that capital punishment has a deterrent effect) in a suitably horrible manner - perhaps by being fried in bacon grease(oops, a pig is unclean, best forget about paradise and the virgins).

  • Simple fix: Deportation
    All anti-semites should just be deported from the country. It would be a lot safer than it is now.

    I bet the anti-gun control nuts freaked when they saw that this man was allowed by the constitution to bear arms. That worked out well

  • Ft. Hood Shooting
    2 sons, one made it home from Iraq in June and the other is still there (2nd tour), daughter-in-law all serving our country. I am in disbelief that this coward "helped" returning soldiers. WTF, when is our nation going to grow a set and get back to common sense instead of holding hands and singing kumbaya? My only hope is that he is tried as a civilian. Texas likes the death penalty. Oh, my family didn't get shot, thank God but believe me, they are affected!

  • remember Sun Tzu
    It looks like that if the American people don't wake up and realize what they are facing in the war on terror, America will lose.

    I didn't say that originally... It is a paraphrase from Sun Tzu and "The Art of War." I have quoted Sun Tzu before. This time you have to read the book yourself to find the quote.

  • Hassan
    In addition to this insight on Hassan, I understand he had been in dutch with the Army for trying to recruit our soldiers to convert at Walter Reed, yet, he was promoted to major this past May. Yep, where is the quality control of our armed services?

  • Ft Hood
    We all know exactly why this happened, even given all that was known about this guy. Political correctness got 13 people killed!!!

  • Hassan
    My guess is the Army knew exactly what the danger was. That was why he scheduled to be deployed. It was a way to sweep a problem under the rug. He was probably also scheduled for an unfortunate "accident" shortly after arriving. What they didn't count on was him detonating like a suicide bomber while still stateside.

  • Silenced from within
    I can speculate here that the same Jamie Gorelick style administrational handling of these type of events. I can picture officers hesitant to raise any red flags on this individual as leftist hand wringers would come out of the woodwork and scream about this persecution etc of this man because he is Muslim bla bla. Now It seems the investigations are starting why no one ever raised the red flags on this Radical Muslim? I would love to see a Commanding officer explain to the accusers it was their policies that hampered them from properly acting.

  • 13 People Would Still Be Alive
    If everyone wasn't so chickensh*t about so-called "profiling", this a-hole could have possibly been headed off before carrying out his massacre.
    *And while we're on the subject* consider this: If this man had used a bomb vest to murder 13 and wound 30, what would the reasoning be THEN for not labelling him a terrosist? Because the only difference between him and a homicide bomber in Jerusalem was two pistols. And the guts to take himself out.

  • Ft. Hood terrorist
    Yes, our government ignored all of the warning signs concerning this dangerous man who killed many because they didn't want to "inflame" the muslim community, but a young eagle scout was harshly disciplined, who was clearly no threat to anyone, for having a scouting knife in the trunk of his car at school. It appears that all common sense has disappeared in our country.
