From what I can gather of Hasan’s career, it appears that some people in the Army, and perhaps other branches of government, were in love with the idea of having a psychiatric expert who understood the Muslim mindset. That’s why Hasan keeps showing up at these events. He’s supposed to be some kind of government expert. Unfortunately, he was also a dedicated jihadi.
The catastrophic results of Hasan’s promotion as a psychiatrist may well be the reason the government is keeping mum about his background. CYA.
His army career is full of red flags and very suspect. He is an Army PC poster boy who was in fact a jihadi. How many more of them are in military? Dozens? Hundreds? Many careerist officers in the military probably have a pet muslim to check their PC ticket. Our military and civilian leadership has failed utterly. This is frightening.
If I were a vet, returning from Iraq, I would think a Muslim shrink would be the last person to whom I would want to confide. I know this is so obvious I shouldn’t even say it but some of these “important, smart” people are just stuck on stupid.
