The spy books and such that i read would call that report ‘sanitized’.
later...
Great. I see more retarded mandatory video classes in my near future.
This report is just to cover their butts. They and everyone else knows this man was an Islamic terriorist.. He acted that out during his time in the service..but NO ONE took action so they would not look “politically incorrect “and jeopardize their military career and because of that Americans died.. this is an attempt to wash their hands and say we had no part in this.
They can write all the words they want to try to find other reasons for the murders..but Americans are not dumb..THEY GET IT ... and this just makes the military leadership and government look like the incompetent fools they are
So the report was politically correct.
SAD!
Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, the Fort Hood psychiatrist charged in the deadly shooting, remains in custody in Bell County, awaiting an Article 32 hearing -- the equivalent of a civilian grand jury review -- that will determine whether he stands trial. He's charged with 13 counts of premeditated murder and could receive the death penalty if convicted.
“What do you bet the government will recommend that soldiers it’s training to kill the enemy should be armed?”
Under 0...not a chance!
“implanting recommendations”???
Is a new way to say kick some butt or just an illiterate copy editor?
Thanks for reading it, as I cannot stomach it.
There is no mention at all in the report that the killer was a practicing Muslim who was shouting “Allah Akbar” as he put bullets in the heads of Americans.
Was there any mention of the fact that he had SOA (Soldier of Allah) on his business card?
There were 14 left dead! One of the victims was pregnant.
You’re absolutely correct.
The report highlights as an action item, the need for DoD to review it's policy on personally owned weapons. The writing is on the wall - personal weapons on base will no longer be allowed.
Over 20 pages of action items, and not a single one mentions "Muslim, Islam, Jihadist", but the powers-that-be think it important enough to mention the personal weapons policy, and intimate that it's too lax. As usual, DC can't see the forest through the trees.
“The very idea that people we trust to work in teams to kill the enemy with advanced weapons cannot be trusted to wear a sidearm on base is beyond me.”
It’s a Clinton era policy that should have been repealed under G.W. Bush. Maybe the next American President will address this.
Indeed..., and they call it ““The tragic shooting”
This was not a tragedy, as in a happenstance of misfortunes, it was plain freaking predictable murder.
Yep, these people keep being treated with priviledges and kid gloves. Next time we will be priviledging them with freely nuking us and we will call it again a “surprize tragedy”.
Thanks for reading. It appears even the generals are afraid of having their pets given anti-freeze. We surrendered already when our print media were too afraid to publish the cartoons.
I’m beyond words on this, FRiend, I really am.
The Pentagon, the brass, they simply inhabit a different world than I do.
They’re trying to “play nice.” Muslims, islamists, jihadis et all DO NOT PLAY NICE.
JAG-
You didn’t actually expect anything different out of our politicized, DoD bureaucracy did you? I certainly did not; this is exactly the type of weasel-worded, touchy-feely, whitewash job that was inevitable from this crowd!
May the Good Lord protect our troops from the incompetence of their own leadership in the upper ranks!
