I cringe that he's a Muslim. I mean, because it inflames all the fears. I think he's probably just a nut case. But with that label attached to him, it will get the right wing going and it just -- I mean these things are tragic, but that makes it much worse.NPR's Nina Totenberg soon chimed in with agreement: “It really is tragic that he was a Muslim.”

November 7, 2009 - 20:37 ET by DoktorFrankenWithout any regard as to how a Muslim is brought up to hate Infidels and to believe that exterminating them is religiously okay. Taunts? Teases? Whoopti freakin' do! If that will be his ''excuse'' then every child in the world is capable of mass murder.

Napolitano Warns Against Anti-Muslim Backlash
November 8, 2009 - 08:15 ET by ThisnThatNow, the official administration reaction
There's nothing in this story about taking measures against islamic terrorism in the U.S. Not that I would expect it with this administration. After all, didn't obama tell us "to not jump to conclusions"? I guess now we know why -- Napolitano has just now informed us of the official WH conclusion -- there are just too many damed anti-Islam sentiments in this country!

November 8, 2009 - 09:57 ET by gmaniac1Only a liberal would think that it's a great month when innocent people get killed by a "religious minority." You seem frustrated that this killer wasn't a white male soldier or even a Christian to boot. Someone that fits the liberal PC mold of a radical, when the radicals are more like you and your ilk. You also have something in common with this killer; you both have a warped sense of "critical" thinking.
Also, you notice how this cowardly liberal, one of many, just drops some ridiculous comment and doesn't have the cahonies to defend it? Hmmm, someone's emotions getting the best of them maybe?

November 8, 2009 - 15:57 ET by criticalthinkingi think that when tim mcveigh blew up a building, he did not act on behalf of all conservatives. i think when a muslim kills a bunch of innocent people he does not act on behalf of 1 billion muslims around the globe. i could be wrong, but this is what i belief. I think the killer's religion is irrelevant, and any discussion of his being a muslim only takes focus away from greiving for the dead
that was nice
November 8, 2009 - 17:10 ET by NietzscheanThe only note-worthy figure I've heard identify or praise McVeigh's politics was liberal icon Gore Vidal, who recently called his former pen-pal a "true patriot" and "a Constitution man."
'Irrelevant'? He shot 40 people while screaming 'Allahu Akbar'!
November 8, 2009 - 19:28 ET by TailgunnerI wonder what you wrote when Edward Tiller shot an abortionist?
It's said that when a 'Christian' shoots someone a hundred thousand fingers are on the trigger, but when a Muslim murders people he acts alone.
Your liberal BS isn't going to work this time, punk.
The evidence is all over the place that Hasan was an Islamic jihadist who shot pregnant women in the back while screaming 'Allahu Akbar'.
This was, pure and simple, Islamic terrorism.

Do you think 'gun control' laws are going to prevent a soldier from getting his hands on a Beretta M-9, an M-4, an M-249, or a hand grenade (remember Asan Akbar who 'fragged' his entire chain of command?)

That's absolute bullsh*t and you know it. No one here is saying that except you.
(Where in the hell did you pull that 'one billion' number from, pal?Probably out of your ass. Must have been quite a task, what with your head being in the way and all that. There's only about 200-300 million Americans in this country.)
No one is tarring Muslims with the same brush except you. Yes, you.
The problem with twerps like you is that you think we think like you think.
If that last sentence confuses you, well let me break it down.
The only one on this forum who's said anything remotely like that has been you. That's what you think.
The fact remains that there is a violent sect of Islamic extremists that unashamedly shout to the world that anyone who is not a member of this sect (and that includes other Muslims too) is an infidel and must be converted, subjugated or killed.
Major Hasan has proclaimed himself on many occasions in many different settings to be a member of this fanatical group. His Islamic terrorist jihadic mass shootings confirm this to all but the most deliberately blind.
And yes, I've met a few Muslims. Several hundred thousand, as a matter of fact.
You see, I spent thirteen months in a small patch of Arabian desert called Bahrain as part of the Naval Security Force during Operation Desert Storm.
I got to know quite a few Muslims...and Sikhs, and Pakistanis, and Gurkhas, and Sri Lankans, and Filipinos among others.
So you might want to think before you appoint yourself an authority on what a Muslim 'is'.

Lesson one for you might be a reminder that the government the founding fathers created was astonishingly liberal considering the times.
Your education has failed
November 8, 2009 - 21:11 ET by ThisnThatYour education has failed you. Our founding fathers created a representational form of government, in direct refutation of the alternatives at the time -- aristocracies and monarchies. In so doing, they emphasized certain principles such as personal responsibility, limited government, and states rights. They also created the Bill of Rights to ensure that we, as citizens, kept a rein on Government.
So yes, when compared to aristocracies and monarchies, our Government was "liberal".
You, unfortunately, are trying to tell us that our founding fathers wanted the type of government modern-day liberals want -- big, bloated, expensive, punitive, and in control of every aspect of our lives. This is patently false. Our founding fathers wanted no such thing. And you are either the most uneducated student of American history there ever was, or you are delibertly trying to distort the facts. I believe it's the former, having paid attention to your past posts. I don't think you're capable of distorting the facts -- you're only capable of repeating talking points.

November 8, 2009 - 00:04 ET by miss911ninjaI'm on your side, bro. I was just trying to point out another example of liberal hypocrisy. In other words, if a "label" stigmatizes people, then this bleeding heart liberal was implying that "Muslim" is a stigma.
Personally, I wouldn't trust any Muslim as far as I could throw them. Why take the chance? I'm quite aware of the history of Muslim attacks against our country and citizens going way back to the 70's. I especially remember how horrified I was when the Greek cruise ship Achille Lauro was attacked, and Americans were taken hostage. A Jewish man named Leon Klinghoffer was shot and dumped overboard........in his wheelchair.
My user name "miss911ninja" means that I'm still pissed, I will never forget, and that I'm a warrior in spirit. After 9/11 I would have joined the armed services if it was possible, but I was past the age limit.

No regrets that the troops were murdered and many more wounded. Just regrets that poor, little, misunderstood Hasan is a Muslim.

And as for Thomas' contention that the fact that Hasan is a Muslim "inflames" the right-wing? What should inflame everybody is Hasan's crime...not merely that he is a Muslim...Hasan's faith becomes an issue if it is determined that is was a driving force behind the attack (which it appears to have been)...Do Thomas and Totenberg not understand this??

It appears that there were a number of red flags about Hasan, and he was being watched...Unfortunately, if there was any action that was being contemplated concerning him, it wasn't taken soon enough.

He's not "just a muslim".
November 7, 2009 - 16:01 ET by ThisnThatHe's not "just a muslim". He's a muslim that shouted "Allahu akbar! -- Arabic for "God is great!" when he opened fire. He equated suicide bombers to soldiers who throw themselves on a grenade to save the lives of their comrades. He got into frequent arguments with others in the military who supported the wars. He received a poor performance evaluation. And while he was an intern, Hasan had some "difficulties" that required counseling and extra supervision.
I think he was radicalized by an extremist ideology -- islamic jihadism -- which fuels acts of terror. So yes -- being a muslim is heart and center of this case, not "an accidental fact".
BTW, I've heard also that "he didn't want to go fight other muslims" which is why he didn't want to deploy. And the MSM is going to sympathize with that. Before they do, though, they need to answer this question: What about all the Christians who have had to go to war to fight other "Chrisitians"? What's the difference? The difference is the religion. Being a muslim, according to the Koran, means you kill anyone who isn't a muslim. Again -- the radicalization of a religion.

But seriously folks, here's what I'd like someone to ask the top brass in the US army. Maybe in the state controlled PC media...
Think that's going to happen? Err, not very likely. Maybe someone in Congress may ask?
The government has ADVISORS who share similar views.
November 8, 2009 - 19:08 ET by TailgunnerAnd Hasan was apparently one of them...with a 'Homeland Security' advisory team.
Federal law enforcement has also invited CAIR 'sensitivity trainers' who support 'jihad'.
And of course Obama has deliberately chosen his own appointees and advisors for their complete unwillingness to confront the truth of an ongoing domestic Islamic 'jihad':
(excerpt below)
----
"The (Muslim) sensitivity training program, denounced by some active and former agents, was mandated after the 9/11 attacks by FBI Director Robert Mueller.
FBI headquarters defends the program as a way to reach out to the Muslim community in America.
"I hate the word 'sensitivity' training," said FBI spokesman Ed Cogswell. "I would call it an awareness training relative to cultural issues."
Mueller has met several times with Arab and Muslim groups since 9/11. He even agreed to be the keynote speaker at the American Muslim Council conference in Washington – a move that drew fire from AMC critics, who note the group has sung the praises of Islamic terrorist groups, including Hamas and Hezbollah, and was headed by al-Qaida fundraiser Abdurahman Alamoudi, now serving time in federal prison on terror charges.
"Mueller should lead the FBI in this war, and leave the sensitivity sessions to the human resources department or CNN," complained retired FBI special agent Don Lavey, who served 20 years in the bureau's counterterrorism unit.
"Let's just hope the director is leading the charge in this war against terrorism with an equal amount of zeal that he shows for cultural sensitivities," added Lavey, who claims Mueller is so politically correct he refuses to use "Islamic" and "terrorism" in the same sentence."

Anyone still wondering why federal law enforcement didn't aggressively investigate Hasan's increasingly radical beliefs and dangerous statements?

There truly are some things that cannot be defended by any sentient, empathetic human being...period. These things put forth in the "Little Green Book" by the late Ayatollah Sosmelly, hostage taker and pervert extraordinaire are among those things.
I dare any liberal that visits here to read from that book and then come here and defend islam...defend what they find there regarding infants, animals and what constitutes a homosexual act.
islam is a lie and Truth is killing it.

'Doubling down on stupid is not a particularly good idea'~Breitbart
I remember the Reagan years,
November 7, 2009 - 17:07 ET by gueinI remember the Reagan years, when many "Thomas-like" liberals would not believe that the Soviet Union posed a threat to the United States unless they saw with their own eyes a missile headed our way. By that time it would be too late to do anything about it. Fast forward 30 years and the same liberals will not see jihadism as a threat to the United States until they see a bullet flying directly at their head. By that time it will be too late to do anything about it.
Personally
November 7, 2009 - 21:14 ET by ahusserI think liberals are worse than the muslim jihadists. Why wasn't this Hasan guy flagged for his obvious extremism. From what I have heard he was obviously headed for some kind of showdown, breakdown or whatever. I have to blame PC on this one either that or authorities et al were incredibly stupid not to pick this up (The other kind of stupid is being afraid of the PC police).

Friggin idiots can not wrap their brain around the fact that radical muslims want to see America and Americans DIE. I mean here are folks that are supposedly smarter than average Americans but they are so bent idealogically that they will defend and spin away ANYTHING that doesn't match up to their world view. Absolutely disgusting. 13 are dead and these folks sit around wishing is was John Smith that had done it.

November 7, 2009 - 19:20 ET by RR GOPMSM Libtard idiots. Can't speak for others but I guess I'm pretty darn conservative and I haven't spent one second fantasizing about burning down a mosque or targeting Muslims with so much as hate mail.
These tragedies always happen because the shooter knows that his targets are unarmed. These anti-second amendment laws are allowing people to be murdered, robbed and raped. These thugs will not put themselves in a position where they can be gunned down by their would-be victims before they can get the first round off thus robbing them of the infamy they dream of.
It is fundamentally the Communists and their panty waist Liberal sycophants in our own government that have put the American people at risk by pulling our teeth with these social engineering gun laws that do nothing to keep monsters from being armed.
Of course one can say the responsibility is that of the murderer, but I maintain that those that put you in that position are at least complicit.
NCOs and officers at least should be armed at all times. When we we were in convoys we had M-16s and M-60s with us, but no ammo. We would have been sitting ducks for anyone wanting them...and that's lame to be in the Army and not even able to protect weapons, other government property and ourselves.

If it hadn't been for Carter, the U.N. and the European PCers/Socialists Rhodesia would be a model nation in Africa...it takes time to bring people from the stone age to the Twentieth Century, educate them and teach them about Democracy and I believe PM Smith wanted to work towards that goal...and allowing a Communist thug like Mugabe to take over did no one any good, black or white.
The Rhodesians lost not to the Communist guerrillas but to pressure from "respectable" nations, one of which was originally responsible for the existence of white-ruled Rhodesia to begin with!

Re Blow by Blow
November 7, 2009 - 22:52 ET by slickwillie2001Thanks for that. I'd been wondering about his weapon(s), and not heard a proper identification. I'm not that familiar with Herstal's stuff, here's a link to that handgun for others not familiar- http://www.fnherstal.com
It's a handgun that basically fires a small-caliber but rifle-style cartridge, and can be 'armor-penetrating' with the proper round, which you can take to mean it would penetrate typical woven body armor. There was a hoo-hah from the gun control lobby when the gun first became available. Those cartridges are hard to get though. 20-cartridge magazine.
Wouldn't the critique of this handgun be like that of the M-16; lack of stopping power?
Your writeup infers Munley shot Hasan only once; other accounts say four times.
It will be interesting to see how the Bamster treats Munley; I assume that they will meet at some point. He might wet his pants meeting her.
Who The Hell Cares What Gun Was Used!?
November 8, 2009 - 16:02 ET by WinghunterIf he used a bomb instead would you be talking about how C-4 was made??
The relevant point is why aren't more soldiers armed on base! THAT is how you stop murdering psychopaths.
Clearly, CO's are just as stupid as hyprocrit elected officials and must be held fully accountable for the deaths they directly assisted in with their assinine policies.

Liberal loons, hearing that this nut case was Muslim, are now in a screaming panic. They aren't saying it out loud, but you know what they're thinking. They're thinking, 'You fool! Why couldn't you just keep it bottled in for a little longer? We're in the process of destroying the country that both you Muslims, and we liberals hate! Just sit back, shut up and let us do the work for you! When you go on your murdering rampages, you make it harder for us to destroy the country because you make the American people aware of the danger you and your terrorist buddies represent! So just cool it - let us distract them, and our boy Obama will give you everything you want!'
I swear the liberal loons
November 7, 2009 - 21:49 ET by Radical1979I swear the liberal loons won't be happy till the Muslims are in charge, the gays are being beheaded, the women are all confined to home unless they are wearing burkahs, and the middle class is destroyed.

November 8, 2009 - 06:05 ET by docjohn52“It really is tragic that he was a Muslim.”
It sure is, because if he wasn't, this probably wouldn't have happened...
Happily, the Uniform Code of Military Justice will be there to hang or shoot the bastard. (And I really can't wait to see which.)
Being libertard reporters and against any kind of violence being used against a muslim in the pursuit of his jihad, I'd suggest you stand in front of him just before he's shot, just to get his 'take' on being killed, would you please? Inquiring minds want to know.
And by the way...
November 8, 2009 - 06:11 ET by docjohn52I agree with tailgunner.
This was a terrorist attack, straight up.
All of our bloggers should reference it as "the terrorist attack at fort Hood", or "the terrorist Hasan".
I think I will absolutely insist on it myself.
What else?
November 8, 2009 - 11:02 ET by misterbee241What else could one possibly call it? I dont guess it would be a hate crime - naaahhh, couldnt be.

Well, sugar, bless your heart, we dont always get what we want. This time I guess you'll just have to settle for a deranged Muslim. I'm sure you can find a way to blame "right-wing" talk radio for it.
Maybe you'll get lucky next time and an Episcopalian will go off someplace. These types of thing are so common, you know.

"It really is tragic that he was a Muslim..."
November 8, 2009 - 12:06 ET by Thalpy"It really is tragic that he was a Muslim." Nina is so insightful. If his religion had been anything else, the attack would never have happened. That likelihood seems to be lost on this mental giant. Baptist and Methodist terrorists have been in short supply of late. Yes, I've heard all of the nonsense about McVeigh and Nichols, too. Any thinking person knows that Muslims were all over the Oklahoma City bombing as well. That it's always a minority who perpetrate such assaults is irrelevant. If the minority were just 7%, that would be 93 million Muslims-over 1/3 of the population of the United States.
Agree with Thal and Nina
November 8, 2009 - 13:01 ET by eaglewingz08Agree with Thal and Nina that it is tragic that anyone is a muslim. Would have the same opinion about satanists. However I doubt that is what Nina meant. I also doubt that with the murder of abortionist Tiller that Nina said that it was tragic that his murderer was a Christian because that would empower leftwingers. In fact I bet you could find quotes of Nina and her leftwing panelists calling Tiller's killer a terrorist, but could you find one of her's calling that Major a terrorist? I doubt it.

Evan, Nina, Americans aren't afraid, but we are keeping track.
The question is, what are the local Imams doing to identify potential shooters and bombers in our mosques?
The point is, after awhile we are going to grow tired of Cleric's shock and suprise when one of their flock does something terrible.
My advice to all Muslim leaders in our country is that they send out that secret decoder ring email ordering their flock to cool off.
Simple solution right?

The Liberal Mind: Psychological Causes of Political Madness by Dr. Lyle Rossiter
"Based on strikingly irrational beliefs and emotions, modern liberals relentlessly undermine the most important principles on which our freedoms were founded,”
“Like spoiled, angry children, they rebel against the normal responsibilities of adulthood and demand that a parental government meet their needs from cradle to grave.”
“A social scientist who understands human nature will not dismiss the vital roles of free choice, voluntary cooperation and moral integrity – as liberals do,”
"A political leader who understands human nature will not ignore individual differences in talent, drive, personal appeal and work ethic, and then try to impose economic and social equality on the population – as liberals do. And a legislator who understands human nature will not create an environment of rules which over-regulates and over-taxes the nation’s citizens, corrupts their character and reduces them to wards of the state – as liberals do.”
“The roots of liberalism – and its associated madness – can be clearly identified by understanding how children develop from infancy to adulthood and how distorted development produces the irrational beliefs of the liberal mind,”
“When the modern liberal mind whines about imaginary victims, rages against imaginary villains and seeks above all else to run the lives of persons competent to run their own lives, the neurosis of the liberal mind becomes painfully obvious.”
Nina Totenberg is an odious fool
November 8, 2009 - 18:51 ET by WarEagle01NPR's Nina Totenberg soon chimed in with agreement: “It really is tragic that he was a Muslim.” Yes, Nina it would have been so much less tragic if he had not been a Muslim. Gosh, if only those thirteen people had been killed by a non-Muslim we would all feel so much better about their slaughter.
Gee, maybe if it had been a
November 8, 2009 - 19:15 ET by SnarkestraGee, maybe if it had been a Christian who opened fire they may have cared more about the victims and their families instead of what conservatives or anyone else thought about the suspect or his beliefs. Just think, if this monster had just been a Christian, they could have spared some concern for the morale of the troops who still have to ship out and their families, who now have just one more thing to worry about their loved one's deployment.
No, the true tragedy is that someone might infer from the suspect's comments that he was acting in a manner befitting the same people who are so cowardly and devoid of honor they can only attack civilians who can't fight back and in situations in which they know they have the advantage over real men and women of courage, if only for a few moments.
