Survivors of the Fort Hood massacre described today how Major Nidal Malik Hasan allegedly gunned down unarmed soldiers, and then shot them again as they lay wounded on the floor.
Investigators believe more than 100 shots were fired from Hasan's gun in a matter of minutes. He was described as calm and methodical in his attack, pausing only to reload. Soldier Keara Bono survived the onslaught although she was wounded slightly in the back and grazed in the head.
Bono told "Good Morning America" today that she initially thought the scene of Hasan standing up, praising Allah and starting to fire was a drill. She didn't believe it was real even when she felt her own blood, she said.
"Then I looked to my left and right and I saw people that were bleeding," she said. That's when Bono realized that Hasan's rampage wasn't a drill.
"I started crawling, I called 911 with my phone to my side... and I turned back and looked at him. He was about two body lengths away from me, longways, shooting people on the ground still. So I was just waiting to get shot in the back," she said.

So, tell me again why this is not being called a terrorist attack?
>>Bono told “Good Morning America” today that she initially thought the scene of Hasan standing up, praising Allah and starting to fire was a drill.
She can expect a call from the FBI and IRS to change that story to something a little more muslim-friendly.
It is being called a terrorist attack.
But not by the main stream fringe media or the president.
America knows it’s another terrorist attack under Obama’s administration. This one’s just the biggest one since Obama took office.
“Allah is love”
Unless you are an unarmed infidel dog...
>>So, tell me again why this is not being called a terrorist attack?
Because..umm..that’s what it says on the teleprompter.
A drill for a terrorist attack.
WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT IT WAS!!!!!!!!!
Because it's a religion of peace, doncha know?
Does anyone know how often he would have re-enlisted in the military to pay off his medical education? And how often are the reenlistments? Aren’t they like every four years?
Because He is a MUSLIM with a Muslim Name and he worked on the Muslim President’s Campaign and, GOLLY GEE WIZZ!, We just CAN’T OFFEND any Darn MUSLIMS, Now Can We?? Please remember also that Our Esteemed and Infinitely Well Qualified Secretary of Homeland Terrorism has declared that We are NOT TO REFER TO MUSLIM TERRORISTS as MUSLIM TERRORISTS!! but rather as “Justice Seekers for ALLAH!” /sarq!, I think!/
But we all know he won't.
Ding, ding, ding, we have a winner! That perfectly frames both TOTUS and the Lame Stream Media, who are the only ones saying it isn't a terrorist attack.
Because..umm..thats what it says on the teleprompter
Post of the Thread Award!
>>>>>So, tell me again why this is not being called a terrorist attack?<<<<
Because the man we elected to the highest office in the land was/is a Muslim.
Aren’t we supposed to call these manmade disasters??
Pray for America and Ft Hood
He wasn't enlisted, he was an officer. He signed a contract that said the government would pay for his medical school, and in return, he'd have an obligation to serve for "x" period of years. It can vary depending on what kind of physician you are (and how much training the govt. pays for) but it's usually 4-6 years of active duty, with a reserve obligation of anywhere from 2-4 years after that.
He wouldn't sign any other document other than his first candidate and service contract.
The scene of Hasan standing up, praising Allah and starting to fire was a terrorist attack.
This muslim was a major...he was commissioned, not enlisted, so he would not have had a term of enlistment so to speak...the expiration date on his ID card would have said "INDEF". Officers in the normal accessions branches (i.e. infantry, armor, quartermaster, military police, etc.) usually incur an 8 year obligation...for West Pointers, it's a max of five years active, 3 reserve. For ROTC scholarship, it's 4 and 4, and ROTC non-scholarship, it's 3 and 5. The "Professional" branches (i.e. Doctors, Dentists, JAG Lawyers and Chaplains) are managed somewhat differently, but typically, they incur the normal obligations outlined above + an additional 2 years active duty for each year of post-graduate education.
There may be some exceptions but this is the general rule of thumb.
Yes, it was an islamic terrorist attack.
