Twelve people have been killed and 31 wounded in a shooting spree at a Texas military base by what officials believe was possibly carried out by an Army officer.

The suspected gunman was identified by ABC News as Major Malik Nadal Hasan.

The shooter was killed and two other suspects, who are also soldiers, have been apprehended, Lt. Gen. Robert W. Cone said.

The gunman used two handguns, Cone said. He wasn't sure if the shooter reloaded the weapons during the attack.

Geeze. Fox News had to get Shep Smith off the air before they could say the name of the shooter.

One soldier afraid to be deployed does not compute with three shooters.

This is a plot, part of terrorism.

A forty year old major doesn’t go postal over being deployed.

“AP source: Fort Hood shooting suspect Army major”
By DEVLIN BARRETT (AP) – 18 minutes ago

SNIPPET: “WASHINGTON — A law enforcement official says a shooting suspect at Fort Hood has been identified as Army Maj. Malik Nadal Hasan.”

SNIPPET: “The official says investigators are trying to determine if Hasan was his birth name, or if he changed his name and converted to the Islamic faith at some point in his life.”

How, exactly, did this Major become a convert and who were/are his associates?

Who and what is happening to the two other suspects? Fox reporting now that the name Malik Nadal Hasan has been confirmed by the Pentagon as the dead shooter.

Re: “Perp was a Major in the Army about to deploy and was upset.”

That information comes from KBH and the scumbag, Shepard Smith.

If he was upset — what were the motives of the other two?

This was a jihadi action — plain and simple.

Shep asked KBH a question which caught my attention. He asked her if she knew whether the shooter spoke during the shooting. My sense was that both of them knew the answer to the question but neither said.

As soon as I heard about the shooting at Ft Hood I knew the Muslims were responsible, but I am SHOCKED! Yes, SHOCKED! That the shooter was an officer in the United States Army!

The guy is supposedly a Muslim convert, which leads me to think he's probably a black officer who converted to Islam after becoming an officer. Political Correctness would have made it impossible to ease him out as a security risk.

<Shot out ? On a day like today ?
WTH is wrong with him. It ain’t Soul Train !!

I heard that from upstairs and couldn’t believe it. When I came down I asked my son if I had indeed heard the president of the United States say, “Shout out.” The man has no class.

Mom lives down in the Killeen area. Said local news reported earlier of something happening in the base housing area - Comanche 3 or 4 — whatever that means. Tons of police cars and shots being fired. Did one of the suspects move into the housing area after the initial shots were fired? Don't know.

I'm in Killeen - there were a lot of conflicting early reports but I don't think there was any gunfire in the housing areas.

No, he didn’t. Steve said it 2x. Brett said “that person” and gave his age.

Why do muslim converts feel the need to change their names? Surely they can deal with Allah using their birth name.
