Dr. Phil and the Fort Hood Killer
His terrorist motive is obvious to everyone but the press and the Army brass.
DOROTHY RABINOWITZ
It can by now come as no surprise that the Fort Hood massacre yielded an instant flow of exculpatory media meditations on the stresses that must have weighed on the killer who mowed down 13 Americans and wounded 29 others. Still, the intense drive to wrap this clear case in a fog of mystery is eminently worthy of notice.
The tide of pronouncements and ruminations pointing to every cause for this event other than the one obvious to everyone in the rational world continues apace. Commentators, reporters, psychologists and, indeed, army spokesmen continue to warn portentously, "We don't yet know the motive for the shootings."
What a puzzle this piece of vacuity must be to audiences hearing it, some, no doubt, with outrage. To those not terrorized by fear of offending Muslim sensitivities, Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan's motive was instantly clear: It was an act of terrorism by a man with a record of expressing virulent, anti-American, pro-jihadist sentiments. All were conspicuous signs of danger his Army superiors chose to ignore.
What is hard to ignore, now, is the growing derangement on all matters involving terrorism and Muslim sensitivities. Its chief symptoms: a palpitating fear of discomfiting facts and a willingness to discard those facts and embrace the richest possible variety of ludicrous theories as to the motives behind an act of Islamic terrorism. All this we have seen before but never in such naked form. The days following the Fort Hood rampage have told us more than we want to know, perhaps, about the depth and reach of this epidemic.
One of the first outbreaks of these fevers, the night of the shootings, featured television's....

He's a typical non thinking liberal.
He and Oprah should be put out to pasture. Never understood why so many folks watch these two imbeciles. OK may be I do. We have become a nation of imbeciles.
Not only that, but he’s a publicity-seeking opportunist!
It’s interesting that Krauthammer, who is a psychiatrist, had a completely different analysis of Hasan than DR. Phil....
“What is hard to ignore, now, is the growing derangement on all matters involving terrorism and Muslim sensitivities.”
Derangement on all matters, period. It is endemic in the US these days.
I am tired of these effeminate creatures.
Anyone remember Patsy Shroeder and her insistence (inclusive of the episode of the failed female naval aviator and the tailhook “scandal”) that the US military resemble the “diverse” US in every sense of the word? This under the premise that it would make our military so much stronger. Of course, the purpose of our military is NOT to be a social experiment, but to kill our country’s enemies and to defend us.
Initial investigation shows colleages of Cpl Nakayama, a nissei whose parents and siblings currently are housed in the Manzanar Detention Facility in California, were worried about him for his numerous efforts to tell comrades that Japan was justified for bombing Pearl Harbour, that he thought the "banzai" suicide attacks against US troops by Japanese Imperial soldiers were honorable as they were only defending their homeland. He gloated over stories coming into the base from relatives of those on the Bataan Death March, saying Japanese military were in their rights to force the march and obedience of the captured Allies. Nakayama had been spotted several days earlier in a small neighborhood grocery wearing traditional Japanese sarashi, tabi, happi and a sarashi Japanse "hissho victory cloth" wrapped around his head. Other eyewitnesses said Nakayama stated on multiple times to Marine colleagues that the US should just stay out of the Pacific Region, end the war and give Asia to the Asians, and that he had extreme loathing at the prospect of being sent to the Pacific theater as a battlefield interpreter. He is now reported to have had correspondence with Domei News agency of Tokyo, and also before the war had been a frequent worshipper at a Shinto Shrine in Los Angeles, even joining an extreme Imperialist Japan support group, the Black Dragon Society in support of Tojo's expansive measures in the Pacific.
All the while, superiors kept the complaints confidential and did not confront Nakayama over his viewpoints, apparantly in fear of their own military positions and advancement prospects. Secretary of War Stimson is promising a full investigation. Major news outlets in the US, led by the New York Times and NBC News (Blue Network) have disavowed any potential connection of the assailant to Imperial Japan or seditious activity or philosophy, simply stating that the Cpl. was probably troubled about various aspects of his work and the prospect of being sent to the Pacific theater as a field Japanese translator for US troops.
Love Rabinowitz...a great writer..has the shaprness of Krauthammer.
Well said. Brought to the US courtesy of the socialist take-over of our public schools, colleges, universities, professions, judiciary, and the media.
I agree. I would like to see former Marine Steve Wilkos have just 5 minutes with that Hasan scumbag!
Yes, we are victims of Muslim Taq’ia ( Muslims pretending to be someone else) purveyed to us by a morally priggish bunch of elitist politicians and their military appointees. Wait until they are proved repeatedly wrong, and the death tolls mount from the Mujahid suicide and car bombers who will manifest in our near future. They will either resign or be removed with extreme prejudice.
Dorothy Rabinowitz speaks with a deep knowledge of what it takes to defeat Islamofascism, and she finds America considerably lacking.
There is a certain MOsque located in Yemen that is in desperate need of a cruise missle entering the closeted window of a certain Imam.
Obama would never make it so. Dubyah wouldn’t think twice about it.
Thats a considerable devolutionary difference.
The women of America made ‘Dr’ Phil and Oprah multi-millionaires peddling their pseudo psychiatry and new age philosophies.
Most people don’t know that it is reported that ‘Doctor’ Phil is not even a doctor nor a licensed physician.
“However, Dr. Phil is not a licensed psychologist. He claims the “Dr.” in the Dr. Phil name because he has a Ph.D. in psychology. He did have a license 20 years ago. Dr. Phil was reprimanded by the Texas State Board of Examiners of Psychologists for an “inappropriate dual relationship” with a therapy client in 1988; McGraw was required to take ethics classes in order to continue his private practice in Texas. McGraw admits to giving the client a job at his office (which of course isn’t allowed) but denied carrying on a sexual relationship with the 19 year old, who says their relationship was both sexual and codependent. Shortly thereafter he founded Courtroom Sciences, Inc. which is how he met the great and powerful Oprah.”
Dr Phil is mentally ill in need of professional help
or
an Al Quada collaborator.
The dreaded verbal abuse! That'll lean him, I tell ya what!
Learn him. Cripes.
“The women of America made ‘Dr’ Phil and Oprah multi-millionaires peddling their pseudo psychiatry and new age philosophies.”
...you got it!...and they both followed in the footsteps of Phil Donahue who pioneered the genre...he was a master of the I-feel-your-pain school of relating to female audiences.
