Political correctness mattered more to our high officials than keeping Americans safe. There's no mystery here.

If he were kicked out for denouncing the war, he’d have a book deal, which would be subtitled something like “How One Loyal Soldier Was Cashiered For Speaking His Mind” and would appear on Oprah and receive applause while he talked about his great love for this country and its giving him freedom to express himself, even if it goes against the military brass.

I am thinking the signs weren’t missed so much as not reported or escalated out of fear.
I’ve read his peers in psychiatry openly discussed the possibility he was a terrorist after he gave a lecture justifying suicide bombing with the Koran (in a forum where psychiatric topics are expected to be discussed).

I think people are afraid of lawsuits and their employer punishing them if they speak out.

To protect civilization from atrocity loving islam, we have to change laws to protect citizens who report on possible terrorists.

There is a difference between a “missed sign” and a “not acted upon sign”.

The signs were there - they were not acted upon because of PC.

This was caused by political correctness, diversity, and cultural sensitivity! If a white officer had been going around saying the things Hasan said for YEARS, he would have been out on the street long ago.

But, you can’t offend the Religion of Peace, can you?

The signs were not missed. They were deliberately suppressed and ignored so as to not “offend” the delicate sensibilities of those who favor slicing Jewish necks while chanting religious ditties and filming the ceremony and broadcasting it on the internet for fellow death culters to enjoy while eating halal popcorn.

MUST SEE:

Lt. Col Ralph Peters on O'Reilly last night

LINK

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tCY1lsJg8zs

Somebody gets it and Ralph is on fire, pissed as I've seen anyone about this attack and does not mince words:

Par: "This is the second worst Islamic Terrorist Attack since 9/11."

Watch him take on the US Army, the State-Run Media, and especially, Commander-in-Least, O'Bozzo

Pass it around. Its a keeper!!!

Signs missed? More likely, the signs were why he was promoted.

“Army Major (Hasan) Played Role in Presidential Transition”

As before the 911 Atrocities (now ‘Natural tragedies’),
the Islamic terrorist community forewarned everyone exactly what
was coming in the handy calendar a year in advance.

No one in Congress ever cared, then, after 911, or now.
Instead, they have tirelessly worked to have taxpayers pay to let more terrorists in.




"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.
We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream.
It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same,
or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children
and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.
"
President Ronald Reagan

“Ft. Hood probers ponder missed signs”

The signs were not missed,rather, the dictates of PC required that they be ignored. So they were. So they will continue to be.

There were no missed signs. They were ignored signs. The signs will continue to be ignored and the worshippers of allah will continue to get bolder. Until someone miles away from a major city in the u.S. looks up and aske,”Look at that funny looking cloud over_________.”

despite trying to leave the Army for months...

Where do they come up with this screed? This guy was an officer. He could resign his commission at any time. He didn't because the Army put him through med school and he would have been on the hook to repay the cost if he didn't serve his obligation. Besides, as a Major he had a decent salary and work schedule. Deployment is a fact of life in the Army - you don't join if you don't want to be deployed. This guy wanted the perks that come with military service and didn't want to pay the price.

An act of terrorism pure and simple, Ft. Hood's 9/11. Our enemies greatest and preferred weapon is Political Correctness and they use it and all the useful idiots very well.

Some heads should roll but won't however, new rules about Muslims and political correctness should be put in place. CAIR is like Jesse Jackson and Rev. Sharpton, they make honest criticism and "equal under the law" personal affronts or racial. To heck with that.....this Muslim is a killer, his personal religion may have driven him but that is not an excuse in a civilized society.
