Sweeping the Ft. Hood Shooter's Motivations Under the Rug
Pajamas MEdia ^ | November 8 | Ron Raodsh

By now, most of us are tired of the continuing litany of “let’s not judge” what happened at Fort Hood, and that Major Malik Nidal Hasan was simply mentally ill and stressed out because of his impending deployment. He, like a disgruntled employee, simply snapped.

That is why it was so refreshing to hear Senator Joe Lieberman on Fox News Sunday, where the maverick Democrat now independent dissident dared to say that Hasan “reportedly showed signs of being a “self-radicalized, homegrown terrorist.’” There were indications, he noted, that Hasan “had turned to Islamist extremism” which should be investigated. If so, his action was not that of a mentally unbalanced individual, but “a terrorist act.” The military should have acted, Lieberman added, and once they got notice of various reported signs about Hasan, he should have been gone.

Lieberman’s view is especially refreshing when compared to that offered by Army Chief of Staff General George Casey, who told CNN that “You know there’s been a lot of speculation going on, and probably the curiosity is a good thing, but we have to be careful, because we can’t jump to conclusions now based on little snippets of information that come out.” Rather than acknowledge the obvious, General Casey was concerned instead that undue speculation could “cause a backlash against some of our Muslim soldiers,” and that while Hasan’s action was a tragedy, “it would be a shame if our diversity became a casualty as well.”....

It appears the bar of acceptable risk in the promotion of diversity has been lowered, and the bar of intolerance to the intolerable has been raised.

I had this thought earlier today, and decided it would be my new tagline.

As long as Muslims are a "protected species", all Americans are an "endangered species"!

***By now, most of us are tired of the continuing litany of “let’s not judge” what happened at Fort Hood,***

Somehow, this reminds me of an old time wrestling match. The bad guy cheats, had a hidden weapon, violates the wrestling rules..
All in the audience sees it and cries out.
The referee misses it, doesn't see it, refuses to listen to the audience cry, and always has his back turned when the bad guy does something illegal.

The difference is this real world wrestling match between civilation and Islamic barbarianism is for keeps!

Actually, I count 14 murder victims.

One of the murdered Soldiers was pregnant.

They are not “sweeping it under the rug” they are willfully ignoring the 800 pound gorilla in the room. As Hillary once said, “...the willing suspension of disbelief....”................

Yes, and don’t forget that anyone who points out the horsesh!t coming from the hierarchy is instantly written off as a “lunatic” or “mental case” courtesy of the hierarchy’s stooges in the MSNBCNYTCBSNPRNYTCNNABCNBC machinery.

The SOB was a Muslim terrorist who finally answered the call. What is so hard to understand about that?

I like it. We need to get the NRA and conservatives to push for a CCW for all AMERICAN troops on base.

What ever that pathetic pig molesting excuse for a human being’s motivations are, they are lost by the fact that the POS shot up a bunch of unarmed people. The weak and cowardly moslem did not have the guts to face a bunch of armed GIs. No he is just like his punk ass god. Only good for hurting women and children. He should be tried, found guilty and drowned in pig blood.

self-radicalized, homegrown terrorist.

This characterization is no different from a disgruntled employee who snapped.

Both absolve the real enemy because both make Hasan out to be a lone wolf with no outside influence.

The government 'investigation' will absolve Islam by making Hasan out to be a lone nutjob.

I’ve said it before and I will say it again. I don’t care what his motivation is or was. The only thing that counts is his actions. His actions deserve hanging.

I need to go and get my CCW! I’ve been procrastinating for some time.

Time to start packing heat! (legally)

Sudden Jihad Syndrome strikes again.

Our so called leaders need to stop worrying about the risks of islamophobia, and start paying attention to the damage caused by their own islamophilia.

“SIMPLY SNAPPING” IS SOMETHING THAT HAPPENS IN A MATTER OF MINUTES.

THIS PUKE WAS SYSTEMATICALLY GIVING AWAY HIS POSSESSIONS FOR A NUMBER OF DAYS PRIOR TO THE SHOOTINGS.

HE ALSO WAS WEARING TRADITIONAL ARABIC/MUSLIM GARMENTS FOR A NUMBER OF DAYS PRIOR, OFF BASE.

HE SENT OUT A NUMBER OF OTHER SIGNALS, WHICH WERE IGNORED BY OUR ‘PC’ POPULACE.

THIS IS NOT A ‘PERSON WHO SNAPPED’.
