[history]
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.

They were telling him that one guy was shouting something in Arabic while he was shooting,News people keep asking, so maybe there's something to that assertion, but no one is being specific or even confirming it.

Soldiers ripped off uniforms to save lives. Trained as first responders. Soldiers on Ft. Hood do NOT carry weapons. Will increase security presence in coming days

“Soldiers on Ft. Hood do not carry weapons.” The terrorists probably already know this, but I wish he hadn’t advertised that fact.

WHY have all those persons who knew that Dr. Hasan is alive, permitted the entire nation to believe that he had been killed?
Huh???
No one in the news industry, nor in the Pentagon, has reliable sources??
To: ohioWfan
But shooter was using semiautomatic, which explains the high rate of fire which would be indicated by the victim count.
To: Palladin
It does exist with caregivers. However, that is NOT what it sounds like this was the case here from the description of the shooter’s behaviors.

Cowan - the fact that he is still alive drastically changes the investigation.

“11 killed in Fort Hood rampage
Gunman wasn’t killed by officers, despite earlier reports”
By SIG CHRISTENSON and SCOTT HUDDLESTON Express-News
Nov. 5, 2009, 8:23PM
SNIPPET: “Federal law enforcement officials told the AP that Hasan had come to their attention at least six months ago because of Internet postings that discussed suicide bombings and other threats.
The officials say the postings appeared to have been made by Hasan, but are still trying to confirm that he was the author. They say an official investigation was not opened.
One of the Web postings that authorities reviewed is a blog that equates suicide bombers with a soldier throwing himself on a grenade to save the lives of his comrades.”
