A military jury sentenced unrepentant Fort Hood jihadist Nidal Hasan to death on Wednesday. But if another murderous Muslim soldier's case is any indication, Hasan may be sitting in the catbird seat for years to come. And our men and women in uniform will remain endangered by Islamic vigilantes in their own ranks.
Remember Sgt. Hasan Akbar? On March 23, 2003, this hate-filled soldier with the 326th Engineer Battalion lobbed stolen hand grenades and shot his M-4 automatic rifle into three tents filled with sleeping commanding officers at the 101st Airborne Division's 1st Brigade operations center in Kuwait. The grenade attack claimed the lives of two American patriots: Capt. Christopher Seifert and Maj. Gregory Stone.
Like Hasan, the militant Muslim Akbar gave plenty of notice that he was a threat to his fellow servicemen. His bosses pegged him as a menace with an "attitude problem" well before the fragging. Despite several incidents of insubordination and prior invocation of his Islamic beliefs to skip out of the 1991 Persian Gulf War, Akbar's superiors dispatched him to Kuwait on the eve of the invasion of Iraq and put him in charge of clearing land mines. Sensitivity trumped soldier safety.
At Akbar's court martial, prosecutors read vengeful quotes from his diary, in which he vowed: "I am going to try and kill as many of them as possible," and "My life will not be complete unless America is destroyed." Eyewitnesses said after his arrest he inveighed against his fellow troops: "You guys are coming into our countries, and you're going to rape our women and kill our children."
This soldier of Allah, not America, was sentenced to death in April 2005 on two counts of premeditated murder and 17 counts of premeditated attempted murder. But Hasan Akbar, unlike his victims, still lives...

The true leaders have been weeded out. Obama has made it 10 times worse just the past 4 years.
Agreed, it’s gotten much worse since Obummer arrived but Sgt. Hasan Akbar was a known problem that they didn’t deal with.
And this makes the rapid execution of Timothy McVeigh all the more troubling. Why, it’s almost as if they wanted to shut him up or something.
Timothy McVeigh definitely wanted execution for whatever reason, he could have possibly strung it out forever.
I doubt Hasan will fight it either.
I have read one level of appeal is mandatory. Often these pro se clowns bring the lawyers back in for the appeals. In this case, however, I do get the sense Hasan thinks this is his path to martyrdom, so he might well make it fast.
