If Hasan is not a terrorist, then no one is a terrorist. And that is the point. Obama can not be accused of incompetence in the war on terror if terrorism does not exist. It is just another case of CNN and the Dem Controlled Media propagandizing current events in service of the Dem Party.

I don’t think he’s a terrorist, for a very simple reason. The classical definition of terrorism is the targeting of civilians to advance a political purpose. Hasan didn’t target civilians. He hit a clear military target. The appropriate term then isn’t terrorism. It’s treason.
