The U.S. military is guilty of political correctness toward domestic Islamic terror, according to a congressional report made public Wednesday that concludes al Qaeda is using U.S.-based Muslim radicals to plan mass casualty attacks.
"Homegrown radicalization is now the vanguard of al Qaeda's strategy to continue attacking the United States and its allies," said the report on domestic extremism by the House Homeland Security Committee. The report was based on several hearings held by Committee Chairman Rep. Peter T. King, New York Republican.
The report said evidence of the threat comes from recordings made public in Pakistan by the core al Qaeda terrorist group, as well from an English-language magazine produced in Yemen by two American jihadists. Additional evidence came from an American suicide bomber in Somalia who urged Muslims to wage "jihad in America."
The report said violent Islamist extremism is "the No. 1 terrorist threat to this nation."
Of particular concern, according to the report, is the threat posed by radical Muslims to U.S. military communities. The terror threat to military communities is "severe" and growing. It includes the use of "insiders," like Maj. Niidal Hassan, the terrorist who carried out the 2009 Fort Hood shooting attack that killed 13 people and wounded 29 others.
The report faulted the U.S. military for "political correctness" toward Islam, which the report called a "potentially devastating development" for the security of troops and their families.
The Obama administration "chose political correctness over accurately labeling and identifying certain terrorist attacks appropriately, thereby denying Purple Heart medals to killed and wounded troops in domestic terror attacks," the report said.

Traitors.
Unfortunately, the Perfumed Princes of the Pentagon (to quote David Hackworth) are complicit. One or two have stood up and been quickly canned - the rest have no stones. Leadership is in very short supply at the highest levels in today’s military.
Hackworth was right.
I knew we had “walkers in the wire” when the Ft Hood attack was labeled workplace violence by this administration. This report only confirms what 90% of Americans already know and what 90% of the press will never report.
Obama has replaced all the Military Leadership with Fairies
I could go on for hours with what I have done with the filthy koranimals in my area, hours. That being said, last time I stepped into one of their stables, it pulled a bat out threatening me & I pulled a knife. They're here for one reason: This is the house of war & they're ready for jihad.
Not in my country!! I am prepared to pull the trigger.
