If there are “backlash” incidents, deal with them. So far, the only backlash I see is the knee-jerk “no terrorism/Islamist basis” psuedo-explanation for this attack.
It insults soldiers to lecture them (and the public) on backlash — when the media, FBI, and the military command structures fall over themselves NOT mentioning that Hassan was a Muslim.
PTSD “caught” from other soldiers? Is that in the diagnostic manuals? Sheesh.
Any stress he had over hearing our soldiers horrific battle stories is because they were fighting HIS people - not because of what happened to our troops - and that is also the reason he didn't want to deploy.
He was a freaking psychiatrist. He would not see combat. He was a Major, he would not be patrolling the streets or mountains. He was freaked out because he would be in the field WITH his enemy as they fought HIS people, the Muslims.
And how about the Muslim garbed man that visited him in his apartment JUST before he went on his rampage? Absolution for the mayhem he was about to commit? It's against Islam to commit murder - UNLESS you murder infidels in the act...then it's glorious.-
There are reports that he tried to teach his patients - our traumatized troops who had been in battle with those Cretins - how wrong they were to have been fighting muslims! He preached Islam to them for years. He saw them as infidels who had been killing HIS people.
Can you imagine how much deeper their depression will be, after coming home and having a freaking Major tell them how wrong they were!
Is the army going to follow up on those patients and help them - or would that be 'insensitive' to Islam.
If this Marxist group in DC ever declares Martial Law (we know they want to) for any trumped up reason and orders the military to turn on Americans - how many now do you think will obey THAT order.
We well may see a for real revolution before the current reign is over...but there will be a lot of trained veterans that weren't so trained 8 years ago.
This gang of thugs better think long and hard before they take that one step too far.
