Gunman shouted 'Allah Akbar' before opening fire, witness says.
LA Times ^

Posted on 11/06/2009 10:27:04 AM PST by Chet 99

A witness has told investigators that the Army major who allegedly opened fire on his fellow soldiers at Ft. Hood Army Base Thursday shouted "Allahu Akbar" -- Arabic for "God is Great" and the rallying cry of suicide bombers around the world -- before unleashing his bloody assault that left 13 dead and 30 others wounded.

In a briefing with reporters this morning at the base, Col. John Rossi said, "We do have a witness who reported that."

And this morning on NBC's "Today" show, Lester Holt aired tape of the father of a soldier who said that his daughter told him the same thing.

"He said maybe Muslims should stand up and fight against the aggressor," retired Col. Terry Lee told Fox News. "At first we thought he meant help the armed forces, but apparently that wasn't the case. Other times he would make comments [that] we shouldn't be in the war in the first place."

I hope Nidal lives (unless he ends up getting off on an insanity plea).

I want him to see how much American’s hate him.

I want him to see he was taken down by a woman.

I want him to live long and suffer.

This newspaper must not have received the memo from the White Crib that says we shouldn’t jump to any conclusions. Maybe someone in the crowd sneezed and this utterance was a blessing.

No suffering on earth will compare to what’s in store for him in hell.

Yeah, but I don’t plan on watching him suffer in hell.

This way, I get to watch.

Ohhhhhhhh, it couldn’t have been “Allah Akbar”! The headline on U.S.A. Today (online) said, “Shooter praised God before Fort Hood massacre”. So, one would have to assume just by reading the headline it must have been an Amish person. /sarc

Interesting that the LA Times is reporting this. And with an informative headline, to boot.

Ultimately my little fantasy ends with his death - preferably by a fellow inmate but lethal injection would suffice.

THE REAL NEWS STORY IS THAT THE LA TIMES IS ACTUALLY PRINTING THIS WITHOUT CLAIMING THAT THE MURDERER IS A HERO.
