FORT HOOD, Texas – The base commander at Fort Hood says soldiers who witnessed a shooting rampage that left 13 people dead reported that the gunman shouted "Allahu Akbar!" before opening fire at the Texas post.

Lt. Gen. Robert Cone told NBC's "Today" show on Friday that suspected shooter, Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, made the comment, which is Arabic for "God is great!" before the rampage Thursday that also left 30 people wounded.

In the Age of Obama,

we have to go to foreign news sources for the truth.

Our own news outlets might as well incorporate under the name “New Pravda”.

The AP is going to have to be more careful-in the rush to report this story, actual facts are being reported without the politically correct self censorship we’re accustomed to. This tidbit will be later denied or buried, as though it never happened.

Tell the widows around the globe that the death of their loved ones are “statistically insignificant” because they don’t fit your narrow view.

Don’t worry, you can just go to another thead and complain about the terror campaigns of drug cartels and nobody will point out the contradiction.

Screwed up is right! This Nicole broad, she went on & on & on & on & on about... the poor guy!! ... Can you imagine having to listen to soldiers tell you about Iraq & Afghanistan, day after day? ... No wonder the poor doktor... blah/blah/blah"

Then she played Shep Smith talking to KBH and them saying to eachother that The.Name of the perp will MEAN something, so FOX must verify before they saying the name on air -- Nicole Sandler went on & on that the doctor's name, Nadil Malik Hasan -- WHADDIT MEAN?? Absolutely NOT a thing.

Political correctness will be the death of our society.

So true. We were much better off during the Cold War. The enemy was clearly defined and we understood and united against its evil.

And now the enemy walks among us, and we are afraid to expose him for fear of legal retribution. We are literally being destroyed from within.

Lord help us...

Of course, Islam had nothing to do with this lunatic’s actions.

Give him a little time, and he'll be blaming our own military for this abomination.

All muslims are "part of a cell". Remember the newly converted Cat Stevens saying "If my imam ordered me to murder, I'd have to do it."

Hey, I remember you!

You're that guy who warned us in the 20th Century that all those Japanese-Americans couldn't be trusted. After all, a word fgrom the Emperor and they'd follow.

Oh, and back in the 19th Century, warning us against those dirty papists whose loyalties were to the Vatican, not there.

So glad we listened to you!


I guess some folks never got the memo...

Col. Douglas Burpee, USMC

CPT Humayun Saqib Muazzam Khan, SSG Ayman Abdelrahman Taha, or MAJ James Michael Ahearn...

I’ve come to a point with the nuts now where I cannot even try to understand them .

They really are so far out of this world that they have no conception of reality.

That is scary and that they can’t even see that their PC crap is killing folks and ruining this country.

Even now the so called media are doing their best to twist the real reason for the shooting meanwhile the fringe elements of the left like KOS, move on etc are trying to ignore the muslims aspect but are trying to say he was just a man who lost it and poor him bla bla

Anyone every read CS Lewis' The Final Battle? Beware 'Tashlan'.

I did, but I was just a kid with no knowledge of Islam. I'm going to have to go back and read it again.

I can't begin to imagine what the soldiers and their families must be feeling in reaction to the sicko perverse MSM, much less to those truly fanatical really out there weirdos like Nicole Sandler & Company -- can you begin to imagine what a mom or dad of one of the murdered soldiers would feel like were they to listen to Ms.Sandler rattle tattle off, again & again, "Oh, the pooor doktor, how could he bear his job??? All those meanie soldiers telling him all their war stories, day after day, all day long pooooor widdle doktor, the pooooor guy....had to listen to them talk about Iraq & Afghanistan -- would you WANT to go there????"

On and on and on and on.

Didn't Tokyo Rose have finesse, in comparison to this??

I feel the same

The truth is being covered up because of these lunatics and then the loons feel sorry for the shooter and are now trying to give the man excuses.
Like the crap of he was bullied.

We are not fighting a war on “drug cartels”. The terrorism we are fighting = Muslim. Take your head out of the sand. All terrorist we are fighting are Muslim. Their holy book teaches terrorism. A Muslim terrorist is simply being true to his faith whereas other murderers are not killing for profit or self-gain, the Muslim terrorist kills because he is a good Muslim.
