Call for calm after US military base killings (Obama says don't jump to conclusions...)
Financial Times ^ | 6 Nov 09 | Sheila McNulty and Harvey Morris

Barack Obama cautioned a stunned public on Friday against drawing quick conclusions on a shooting rampage by an officer at a Texas military base that killed 13 people.

The president made the comments as the commander of Fort Hood, the US’s largest base for deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan, quoted witnesses as saying the suspected gunman, Major Nidal Malik Hasan, shouted the Muslim declaration “Allahu Akbar” – God is great – as he opened fire. Speaking at the White House, Mr Obama said: “We don’t know all the answers yet, and I would caution against jumping to conclusions until we have all the facts.”

A basic tenant of their “ faith” is to kill you if you don’t buy their crap. It is important to know that “dereliction of duty”can get you hanged in our history. To let this moslem in OUR military was CRIMINAL DERELICTION. 13 dead and 31 wounded would now agree!!!!!

I’m surrounded by people who’ve had just about enough of your bullshit, Mr. President. No jumping needed.

Yup, My conclusion on Zero was already reached before this happened, and it wasn’t “jumped to” His every damn action has helped me reach it.

We are smart enough to draw our own conclusions without the input of the teleprompter readers in the media or the white house. These soldiers were murdered by a moslum coward who committed this heinous act in the name of his filthy religion.

“Call for calm after US military base killings (Obama says don’t jump to conclusions...”

Barry O: “The Military acted Stupidly”

It’s astounding the cartwheels the media is doing to ignore the elephant in the living room. This SOB, through his religion, (death cult) executed soldiers because he feared they would be fighting his spiritual brothers. He “was scared to death” of deploying not from fear but from the disdain he had of being part of a military fighting his Islamic brethren.

He’s nothing but a murdering, scumbag jihadi.

He could have simply went AWOL if he didn’t want to deploy. This is why that angle is total BS.

You know... Hasan and Hussein are muslim brothers. One attacks the military while the other facilitates its defeat.... Traitors....

zero may as well just satisfy his urge and go get a photo op with Hasan, his muzzie brother.

Somehow I doubt that he’ll want a photo op with the caskets of these dead. He wants this off the public stage asap.

“These American terrorist and their sympathizers(which there are far more than anyone wants to believe) need to start getting a taste of their own medicine...”

I agree completely...except for one small point...we don’t deal in their kind of “medicine.” These cowards never fight a pitched battle. Its about time they got a taste of what the Germany/Spain/Mexico/Britain experienced in times past. American fury.

In the future we need to follow Israel’s lead...it is imperative that we allow our servicemen/women to carry their weapons at all times. If you’re in uniform(and truth be told, even if you aren’t you should be carrying your sidearm) then you need to be armed, plain and simple.

They were released, not provably involved based on what’s known thus far. The investigation continues.

Why can’t the O just call the attack what it was?

He said he'd stand with the Muslims, remember?

Hasan is on a ventilator, comatose. Pull the plug on the bastard. If it’s good enough for Terri Schiavo, it’s too good for Hasan. I don’t want to pay for his medical care.

I think we need an amendment to Pelosi’s bill requiring that all life preserving methods be withdrawn from jihadists and terrorists in custody.

LET HIM DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
