Horrible news from Ft. Hood, Texas. 12 dead and 31 wounded by a soldier with a Muslim background, one who used to go to his prayers dressed proudly in the uniform of the American soldier. God help CAIR if they blame anyone but the perpetrator for this massacre.
Andy McCarthy also has commentary here, courtesy of NRO, though the shooter was actually not a convert.

There was an early report that this guy was somehow connected to Obama and politics prior to the election. It’s not been mentioned since that I know of...
Will our Muslim President go to Fort Hood??
“Tragedy”? From Merriam-Webster: “a disastrous event : calamity b : misfortune.” It was “a disastrous event”... but it was hardly simple misfortune...
“Attack”? From Merriam-Webster: “to set upon in a forceful, violent, hostile, or aggressive way, with or without a weapon; begin fighting with: He attacked him with his bare hands.”
Now, can we at least call it what it was? Whether it was a specific act of definitional “terrorism” remains to be seen... but we do know it wasn’t simply a “tragedy”.
I rue the day when the word “tragedy” escaped its proper usage in literature and began galloping across the journalism world.
Agreed.
This was “Multiple Murder”.
Tragedy is the MSMs way to foist their “poor misunderstood loner” crap on us.
Thank you. You said it better that I.
Good overview- with pictures and background- from British press
I heard this morning he was going to Walter Reed today. I threw up in my mouth a little.
Use Scope.
Ther is no doubt in my mind this was the 1st attack on US soil since 9/11.
I don’t believe I just said that.
Muslims need to leave this country now!
Try him, convict him, execute him, cremate him, spread his ashes on a pig farm.
I think ‘massacre’ would be appropriate.
Before we do this, since the guy is still under medical treatment, there is an experimental procedure I would like to see tried. It involves vice grips and his testicles.
What a sad state of affairs when we have to turn to foreign press sources to get the best coverage. The death of American MSM can't come too soon for me.
Fort Hood gunman shouted 'Allahu Akbar' as he opened fire
Why "coward"? Because the lying sack of jihadist skum around the world don't dare challenge an American soldier ready to defend himself.
