A federal jury on Thursday convicted a Muslim soldier on six charges in connection with a failed plot to blow up a Texas restaurant full of Fort Hood troops, his religious mission to get "justice" for the people of Iraq and Afghanistan.

Jurors in U.S. District Court in Waco deliberated a little more than an hour before finding Pfc. Naser Jason Abdo guilty of attempting to use a weapon of mass destruction, attempted murder of U.S. officers or employees, and four counts of possessing a weapon in furtherance of a federal crime of violence.

Abdo, 22, did not stand with his attorneys when jurors and the judge entered the room, and he showed no emotion when each of the six guilty verdicts was read by the court clerk. Abdo, who's been accused of spitting blood on authorities escorting him and a jailer, wore a mask covering his nose and mouth throughout the trial.

In a recorded police interview, Abdo said he was planning to pull off an attack in the Fort Hood area "because I don't appreciate what my unit did in Afghanistan."

[Chode]

skin that POS alive... then set his wretched azz on fire!!!

[AlmaKing]

When are we going to learn not to put muslims in our military?

Send him to spend the rest of his life with his buddies in Afghanistan. Drop him off there from 25,000 feet. Give him a koran and a prayer rug before pushing him out of the back of the C-130. No parachute necessary.

Thank you, Jurors, for your intestinal fortitude, and wisdom.
Yes, may the judge weigh heavily, his judgment upon this active volunteer military member! May the judge be steeped in the wisdom of the Oath, that this “poor misguided Jehu” has ignored.

This traitor has earned what he will receive, by his own actions.

Now when do we hang Nidal Hassan?

In about 40 years, if ever.

Sad but true.

How do you feel about our First Muslim President who is destroying the United States one $Billion at a time? Mr. Hussein Obama is a Muslim terrorist too.

[Ladysmith]

OH! I feel he’s doing a bang-up job! I’ll vote for him again because he’s such a frugal, born-again Catholic!

/major, MAJOR sarcasm!!

Seriously, you had to ask?!

[Molon Labbie]

Exactly, but lets go further. How about in the US, or western nations?

It is their mission to supplant western civilization by force. Why can’t people realize this?

May U.S. District Judge Walter Smith sentence this turkey to life in prison, he deserves no less.

I'm thinking he deserves a blindfold and a cigarette.

Someone needs to ask Obama why Major Nidal is still drawing breath.

[jazusamo]

Agreed, both of them deserve a blindfold and a cigarette.

They could make it a twofer and save on the costs.
