WASHINGTON – His name appears on radical Internet postings. A fellow officer says he fought his deployment to Iraq and argued with soldiers who supported U.S. wars. He required counseling as a medical student because of problems with patients.
There are many unknowns about Nidal Malik Hasan, the man authorities say is responsible for the worst mass killing on a U.S. military base. Most of all, his motive.
...
At least six months ago, Hasan came to the attention of law enforcement officials because of Internet postings about suicide bombings and other threats, including posts that equated suicide bombers to soldiers who throw themselves on a grenade to save the lives of their comrades.
...
Retired Army Col. Terry Lee, who said he worked with Hasan, told Fox News that Hasan had hoped President Barack Obama would pull troops out of Afghanistan and Iraq. Lee said Hasan got into frequent arguments with others in the military who supported the wars, and had tried hard to prevent his pending deployment.
...
On a form filled out by those seeking spouses through a program at the mosque, Hasan listed his birthplace as Arlington, Va., but his nationality as Palestinian, Khan said.
"I don't know why he listed Palestinian," Khan said, "He was not born in Palestine."

He was a muslim who hated infidels in muslims lands and was not proud to be an American. And he went jihad.
AP Reports: Ft. Hood suspect reportedly shouted `Allahu Akbar’

Also looks to be a hope-changer.
“Lee said Hasan had hoped Obama would pull troops out of Afghanistan and Iraq and got into frequent arguments with others in the military who supported the wars.”
I am angry at the Army for subjecting wounded and traumatized soldiers to this man’s “counsel” and care. They couldn’t can this incompetent beast because they were too politically correct. Disgusting.
Fight and defeat the enemy - don’t hire him and promote him.
Really?? Really???? The AP reporter can't figure out his motive?? Wow.
Guffaw! He is a radical muslim, unfortunately wearing the uniform of the United States Army. He should have been cashiered a long time ago.
This guy at Ft Hood?? Oh, I hear he was upset about being deployed, and ... you know ... he kinda snapped. End of story. How's the healthcare reform going?
What about this thing about him serving on Obama’s DHS transition team?? Is the media going to “forget” that?
The press is placing a lot of confidence in a radio report from his cousin stating he always was Muslim, grew up in the US, went to high school here, then Virginia Tech and then Med school, then Army for 6 years till now.
But he’s 39 years old.
The image painted is of a sharp 30 year old immigrant with a missing 9 years since high school for him to be 39.
Maybe I’m missing something.
This report pretty much ends the liberal media meme of “picked on muzzie”, i.e. victim.
I love the Army I retired from. But they do tend to be bipolar. They can write you up and ruin your career for minor infractions or oversights, but when it hits the political correctenes wall, it is pretty lame.
This is due to political pressures from Congress and the Executive, which run counter to military values.
This is why gays in the military won’t work either. But of course, that is the goal of the Democrats - to demoralize and neuter our military.
The real battle is apparent to those with discernment.
Christians, Christian tradition, Christian values,
vs EVERYONE IN THE WORLD.
Leftists will invariably side with the WORLD, be they muslims, communists, or (currently in power) fascists.
How did this guy ever attain the rank of Major?
Seems to me that the US Army has been stuck in such a PC mode that they felt they couldn’t adequately address the potential problem this specific Army officer posed. You have to wonder how many more Nidal Hasans are out there!
We are at war with radical Muslims. The line between radical and non-radical is completely undefinite. The cost of failing to properly profile these folks is carnage and dead innocents.
The bleepholes brother is blaming it on being harrassed for being a Muslim. He’s the victim!!! DIE MF’r. Stand down ALL MUslims in the armed forces.
The same way that his “troubling behavior” never got him kicked out or put in prison.
PC is the primary weapon of our enemy.
The pressholes and public officials will twist themselves in knots trying to ignore the elephant in the living room.
PC bullshit kept this freak in the Army and free from repercussions for his deeds.
I noticed that, as well, that there seem to be some time frame gaps. Hopefully it will be filled in soon.
Can’t be the FBI said yesterday that this wasn’t terrorist related, Allah Akhbar be damned.
