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.

Clueless commanders
Especially the chief one.
well played
I think the families may have a comment on the Political correctness of tolerance of un-American hate speech.
We have a new “Hate crime” law....but it didn’t work when someone Hates the US MILITARY.
My guess: they were trying the up or out route. TV news said he was 40 - bit old to be a major? Not sure. But kicking out a Muslim or a Black Muslim because you suspect his loyalties - even if he’s come right out and said his loyalties are divided (at the very least) - is going to bring the wrath of CAIR and every PC functionary the army harbors.

“They were telling him that one guy was shouting something in Arabic while he was shooting,” Tom Hunt said. “He couldn’t say much more than that.”
As a shrink treating wounded warriors with psych damage...
Who made this sh&t head a MAJOR IN MAY????
Why wasn’t the Army ISO told of this attitude?
“How could a man like that be allowed to remain in the US military? “
P. C.
I want the heads of those who let him
He got a poor eval in May. Why did they promote him to major in May? Must have been some quota or some other PC Bull sh!t.
How many more.......
Undoubtedly his co-workers reported his anti-American comments, but dollars to doughnuts his superiors just transferred him to Texas so they wouldnt end up being accused of trying to silence an outspoken Moslem soldier.
If he was running his mouth, why wasnt he drummed out of the service, instead of being able to run loose on base with two loaded 9mm pistols and sackful of mags?

So he wasn’t a real terrorist. Just a misguided malcontent.
Thank goodness.
damn, that’s one angry health care worker there.
Katie Couric emphasized that we cannot speculate the motive, but then went on to speculate PTSD, combat fatigue and drugs.
No telling how long he has been passing info to the enemy.
Im not a military man, but wasnt he a little old just to be a Major?
Wonder what DU name he went by.
This act of domestic terrorism demands a few questions be asked:
What is a good Muslim?
The Koran instructs that Muslims should say whatever needs to be said to deceive the infidel, tax the infidel, enslave the infidel and to kill the infidel. So if a Muslim ignores the Koran; is he a good Muslim? Or, if he obeys the Koran; is he a a good Muslim?
Does the constitution, which was written by Christian men to preserve the freedom of religion, protect a religion whose fundamental tenets demand the destruction of the very freedom that allows it?
I heard his cousin tell Shep Smith on Fox that the guy joined the army right after High School, was in ROTC at Virginia Tech. The Army paid for his education. But he was trying to get out of the military, even hired an attorney to help him get out, pay the Army off for his Medical training, but the Army said he didn’t have a case and were going to deploy him to Iraq despite his attitude.
Yes, now, IMHO, OBL and his comrades are patience, cunning, and are slowing integrating into our society.
JMHO
absolutely!!!!!!
you got it right!
BE AFRAID. BE VERY AFRAID!
P C kept him in the military. At least CNN and Fox are asking why he was transferred from Walter Reed to Ft. Hood in April. Was there a problem with him at WR?
Someone up the chain of command was derelict in their duty to protect the troops. It is too sad for soldiers to make it all the way through several deployments in Iraq and die checking back on base in TX, murdered by a military doctor.
Yes but he took time to go to school and med school
He was born and raised in VIRGINIA
She didn’t mention terrorism?
http://thisainthell.us/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/hassan-orb.jpg
this may be his military record
Hasan was ROTC and attended Uniformed Services University Medical School. He therefore had an educational commitment of upwards of 12 years. If the military discharged doctors who expressed misgivings about our role in the Iraq or Afghanistan, then a whole mess of doctors would start expressing misgivings, as most would love to be discharged.
For a doctor with hundreds of thousands of training invested to be discharged without serving his commitment would require something more like what he did today.
“Shocking. How could a man like that be allowed to remain in the US military?”
Sadly, this is exactly the kind of person who will do well in Obamao’s military. Someone who thinks like him.
Fox is my station of choice but God help me, I cannot watch that rectal opening O’Riely. I have switched to the “all obammy” channel(CNN)
Hassen is now reported to be a disenchanted Obama supporter.
According to the AP he also posted on a blog that equates suicide bombers with a soldier throwing himself on a grenade to save the lives of his comrades.
At some point, you throw out the PC BS and prosecute him for violating his oath of office.
almost on schedule... just like during the 90s... we’re about to get hit every 12 to 18 months
Accepted into officer training. Check
Given a commission as an officer in the US Army. Check
Promoted to 1st Lieutenant. Check.
Promoted to Captain. Check.
Promoted to Major. Check.
To think as an enlisted I used to be punished for having worn, due to work, my boots too much.
The reason I left the Army, and can not stand modern America, it is the rules. The worship of rules, forms, procedure, always..even when those grab your gut, warning bells instincts are screaming signals.

was he a registered member of a politicla party?
Not an authority on hand guns, (though I do own a couple, have shot a "few" in my 66 years and am a Nam Vet) but seems that (especially a shrink and not someone combat trained)this would be an amazing feat???
Celebrating diversity. It's all the rage these days.
One that has advance rigor mortis.
Why would someone with views like that join the US military in the first place ... unless his plan all along was to attack from within?
WOW wonder if Obama will speak to this Major’s victimhood caused by BUSH?
Or a chance for a free education and a belief he wouldn't be called to arms against his Muslim brothers.
was he a registered member of a politicla party?
Won’t matter. By tomorrow I predict Matt Lauer will have all the reasons this terorist isn’t a terrorist:
1. Disappointed with all the right wing talk radio hatemongers.
2. Upset that his home state of Virginia went Repbulican on Tuesday.
3. Upset that Obamacare hasn’t been voted through yet.
4. Dick Cheney
5. George Bush
6. Phillies lost the World Series.
7. Depressed over all the Republican hate in this world.
8. Christian right infringing on his religious freedom to do jihad.
9. Heard someone somewhere desicrated the Koran.
10. Those cartoons of Mohammed from that Danish guy.
