Major Hasan: Soldier of Allah; Many Ties to Jihad Web Sites

Major Hasan: Soldier of Allah; Many Ties to Jihad Web Sites Officials Say Accused Fort Hood Shooter Used Multiple Hotmail, AOL Accounts for Overseas Contacts By RICHARD ESPOSITO, MARY-ROSE ABRAHAM and RHONDA SCHWARTZ

Nov. 12, 2009 —

United States Army Major Nidal Hasan proclaimed himself a "soldier of Allah" on private business cards he obtained over the Internet and kept in a box at his apartment near Fort Hood, Texas.

Hasan, the alleged perpetrator of last week's fatal shootings in Fort Hood, TX, was charged Thursday with 13 counts of premeditated murder under Article 118 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice, which can carry a sentence up to death or life imprisonment.

The cards make no mention of his military affiliation, but underneath his name he listed himself as SoA (SWT). SoA is commonly used on jihadist Web sites as the acronym for Soldier of Allah, according to investigators and experts who have studied such sites. SWT is commonly used by Muslims as an acronym for Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, Glory to God.

"He was making no secret of allegiances," said former FBI agent Brad Garrett, an ABC News consultant.

"It's one more piece of evidence that might have come out if investigators had taken a hard look at Hasan," said Garrett. "It doesn't say he's about to go out and shoot a bunch of people, but there's something not quite right for an Army major to self-identify that way."

Has the islamist found out he’s not dead yet?

But it's not treason!

Radical Islam is an insane murder cult; moderate Islam is its Trojan Horse in the West.

So where is the media asking: How many more Islamists with this kind of evidence are there in the military? What other ugly situations are lackadaisical or ideologically stunted investigators and officers covering up and wishing would just go away?

Is it me, or has ABC grown a pair with regard to this story?

I would expect the “Major” to be completely unrepentant once he arrives in the courtroom, proudly proclaiming his Jihad against America.

I would also expect the hand-wringing to continue among the media and government elites, wondering what we ever did to this poor man to turn him into a killer.

Ten to one he won’t make it to a courtroom. There will probably be a little accident...

ABC had posted this report. I bet Obummer is having Rahm and Axelgrease taking them off the favored media list.

Maybe this article claiming that he’d had an “Allah is Love” sticker (no such phrase existed on Google prior to the news item) got it wrong. Maybe he had a “Soldier of Allah” sticker on his car.

PS, there are 298,000 matches for “Allah is love” on Google this week. Last week there were EIGHT.

From Nov 6:

A quick google of images for “Allah is Love” sticker has ZERO matches. Shouldn’t there be SOMEWHERE you can buy one?

http://images.google.com/images?gbv=2&hl=en&sa=1&q=%22allah+is+love%22+sticker&aq=f&oq=&aqi=&start=0

The only 8 matches for this phrase and the word sicker in general web search are hits on this article.
