LITTLE ROCK, Ark. A 23-year-old man upset about the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan opened fire from his truck at two soldiers standing outside a military recruiting station here on Monday morning, killing one private and wounding another, the police said.
The gunman, identified by the police as Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad of Little Rock, fled the scene and was arrested minutes later a short distance from the recruiting station, in a bustling suburban shopping center. The police confiscated a Russian-made SKS semiautomatic rifle, a .22-caliber rifle and a handgun from his black pickup truck.
The two privates, who were both from Arkansas, were in Little Rock as part of a recruiting program that typically uses soldiers recently out of basic training to promote the Army in their home regions, Army officials said.

The Lone Wolf theory is about a single islamic terrorist who acts on his own (or her own) and conduct terrorist attacks. We should be very concerned about about the islamic Lone Wolf terrorists. This islamic terrorist who murdered the Army recruiter fits the Lone Wolf profile very well.

Obviously, the black muslims have been unleashed by their handlers. The media won’t tell you that but I just did. A few weeks ago they were trying to blow up synagogues in NYC, now they shot these guys. Also, I blame Olbermann for inciting hatred toward the military.

From the article
In a lengthy interview with the police, Mr. Muhammad said he was angry about the killing of Muslims in Iraq and Afghanistan, Chief Thomas said. Previously known as Carlos Bledsoe, Mr. Muhammad told investigators that he had converted to Islam as a teenager, Chief Thomas said.

I strongly believe that John Allen Mouhammad the terrorist sniper who killed few people in Virgina and Maryland is another Lone Wolf islamic terrorist.

There is already a lot of concern within the military..especially the special forces community..that they or their families might be targeted by terrorists like this perp. Since most military families live off base or in open housing it is a concern.
This incident will be played down by the MSM, ups..the GCM..the Govt controlled media.
I pray for the families...they didn’t send their sons off to war to be shot down in friendly territory. Didn’t this guy commit a federal crime?

Hmmm ... wonder why the media didn’t play up the angle of the possibility that Miller’s murderer was upset about the killing of innocent babies at the abortion clinics ... ? And was acting alone rather than being part of the Pro-Life movement.

yes, NY Times, but I have been away from computer most of day and turned on FOX, MSNBC and CNN and guess I missed the TV reporting on this, did not see it on Drudge either, but a lot of coverage on Tiller and his killer. Not a lot different than other days, FR always has the news first and often exclusively.

That’s the new M.O.: The shoe bomber, the crazy guy at the LAX terminal, the gunman at the Seattle jewish center, the kid at OU stadium, etc. It will now be incremental attacks by single jihadists. Sort of like that movie Traitor.

We must be very vigilant.
