Army: Suspect said `Allahu Akbar!' before shooting
Yahoo News ^ | APRIL CASTRO and DEVLIN BARRETT

Posted on 11/06/2009 5:09:33 AM PST by CHEE

FORT HOOD, Texas – The base commander at Fort Hood says soldiers who witnessed a shooting rampage that left 13 people dead reported that the gunman shouted "Allahu Akbar!" before opening fire at the Texas post.

Lt. Gen. Robert Cone told NBC's "Today" show on Friday that suspected shooter, Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, made the comment, which is Arabic for "God is great!" before the rampage Thursday that also left 30 people wounded.

"spin"

Most of the morons at DummyUnderground are concerned that bigotry against Muslims will spread because of this incident. Yes, that's right, let's not be concerned about the guy screaming Allah Ak-Bar while he was shooting innocent soldiers. Let's forget that inconvenient fact. Surprisingly there were a few Dummys who saw it for what it was: a demented Islamist killing Americans.

There were a few Dummies who brought up his ethnicity. But the great majority of posters cared more about Islam being defamed over the fact that the guy was a nutty Islamist. Few of them are ever able to draw the right conclusion about anything.

Amen, Travis. Jihad within the ranks. Like the case of Sgt. Asan Akbar in 2003.

This Hasan has been a live one for a long time, even suggestiong that more Muslims should attack and kill us after the Arkansas recruiter was killed.

Hopefully he will get the same sentence that Akbar got...and hopefully, unlike Akbar, it will be carried out swiftly.

Maybe they can have a double execution, executed by firing squad with pig-blood soaked bullets, having them fall into a trench of pig entrails before being buried there.

Yes we understand that not all Muslims are terrorists. Thank you.

However, all the terrorists who are killing Americans are Muslim.

It’s like letting gays be boy scout leaders. I know that not all gays are pedophiles, but by defintion you increase the risk infinitely when you entrust a gay man with boys versus entrusting a straight man with boys. It is the same reason straight men should not be girl scout leaders.

Muslims should not be allowed to be in the military not because they are all terrorists but because they infinitely increase the risk of internal terrorist attack against our troops.

Sorry to hurt feelings, but true.

The terrorism we are fighting = Muslim

Exactly!

And here's http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/Pages/Quran-Hate.htm what we're up against. We were told after 9/11 that this would be a war unlike any other. No truer words have ever been spoken.

I can't begin to imagine what the soldiers and their families must be feeling in reaction to the sicko perverse MSM,...

Agreed. Prayers go out to the families. Hopefully they aren't watching the MSM news.

When war is declared, the population as a whole is responsible for those leaders
who made the declaration of war. Therefore, Islam has declared war against
all free people of the earth and all those who follow Islam are also responsible
because they did not act to stop it, speak out, or even openly denounce acts of terror and murder.

All people of Islam are responsible and mosques worldwide should be BURNED to the ground
without hesitation. Let them practice their false religion of a false Messiah pedophile
in the dark rooms and closets. And KILL THEM if they are caught worshiping
the religion of hate, death, rape, and child molestation.

Islam must die so that others may be free..

Japanese-Americans couldn't be trusted.

Yeah, you really had to DIG to find those markers! We outnumber them about 1,000,000 to 1 OR MORE. I'm sure there are also some flying pigs out there too. Go back to sleep. Your children are safe.

By the way the JAPANESE IN HAWAII WERE GIVING THE JAPANESE NAVY DAILY UPDATES ON DISPOSITION OF THE US PACIFIC FLEET!

“...did we have NAZIS fighting in our army in the second world war?...”

No, but we had several REGIMENTS of American-born Japanese ancestry citizens, who served with honor and distinction, and received UNIT citations.

And we had hundreds of thousands of Americans of German ancestry fighting in both World War I and II who were loyal, hardcore Americans who despised what the Nazis were doing. Remember, this country fro its inception had a HUGE German immigrant population.

Basically, we need folks who speak the language there and understand the mentality. BUT - that being said - we also need to remove the NUT CASES like this bastard who evidently was under observation/suspicion.

It’s a fine line for sure, and I’m not defending him; I want to see him HANGED by the neck until dead for this, publicly. And any who helped or supported him.

I’m not convinced that he isn’t part of some sleeper cell.

difference is that we have no idea who is good and who is bad in the muslim community so why take that chance

As for fighting over there as i have I have met many who are willing to help us but that does not mean they are over here and to come over here does it

You're that guy who warned us in the 20th Century that all those Japanese-Americans couldn't be trusted. After all, a word fgrom the Emperor and they'd follow

As with all "rules" there are exceptions.

Your argument is a straw man. Islam has declared war on the West, but Islam is not a nation. Military men and women that we have entrusted with our defense cannot have divided loyalties on the battlefield, particularly where they are fighting alongside non-muslims against other Muslims. Blending into the military loyalists to a movement whose holy book teaches that non-muslims must be "sent to hell" places American soldiers at risk - whether you want to admit this or not.

The defense of this nation is paramount. National security trumps hurting people's feelings or political correctness - or at least it should.

Following a religion is a choice, not a birthright. And choices have consequences...

Understood and not disputing that. Was responding to the Nazi comment.

And back then there was very low tolerance for Fifth-column groups like communists and their liberal buddies - even though they were infiltrating us - there was not the open support in the Democrat party that they enjoy now.

There were in fact Japanese “loyalists” sending intelligence reports (i.e., Pearl Harbor) to embassy spies overseas as well - hence the roundup and internment of Japanese.

That worked when this was a majority white country (90+%) back then, with tightly-controlled immigration and checks on those coiming in to the country, and an assimilation time for those already here to become Americanized.

Not so much now. And we’re weaker for it, and this is just more proof. We’ve been brainwashed into the whole “multiculural” and “diversity” crap, and all it is doing is getting people killed.

Sounds “racist”, I know - but facts aren’t racist. That was wartime, and that was a national security issue. As it is now.

The big question is: “Was he part of a cell”? While I agree he’s a loner, I think he also had to be “pushed”.


I am not sure that he needed to be "pushed", except by an ideology. The New York City Police Department's Report on Homegrown Terrorism describes something called "autonomous Jihad" in referring to acts of Jihad that are motivated by Salafi ideology, but are not the result of a centrally coordinated effort. The issue is not whether he acted alone, or was part of a cell. The question is whether his actions were motivated by Jihadist ideology.
