The suspected Fort Hood terrorist served as a lay Muslim leader running Islamic services on the base in the absence of the Muslim chaplain, WND has learned. He also mentored at least one young convert to Islam whose parents worked at the sprawling Texas post.
Hasan's religious activities raise the specter that others may have been radicalized, investigators worry. There are nearly 50 Muslim soldiers serving on the base.
Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan allegedly shot 46 fellow soldiers and security guards and murdered 13 in the worst act of terrorism on U.S. soil since 9/11.
Witnesses say the devout Muslim officer jumped up on a desk and shouted, "Allahu akbar!" Allah is greatest before opening fire and spraying more than 100 bullets inside a crowded building where troops were preparing to deploy to Afghanistan and Iraq.
"He was preparing for a martyrdom operation," a U.S. Army intelligence official said. "There is no evidence that this was an issue of an emotional aberration. It was well planned."

Col.Allen West Will be on FOX & Friends this morning 11/9 at about 8:15AM to discuss his statement about the attack on Ft.Hood! Be sure to tune in and please spread the word!
The real question is how much classified and confidential information (both personal and military) did he become privy to in his sessions with soldiers and what did he do with that information?
Thank God for WND!

PS Big day tomorrow, Marines! SEMPER FI!
If Hitler had been as clever as Mohammed, he would have proclaimed Nazism to be a new religion.
Then PC-uber-alles dolts would demand that Nazi SS priests should be allowed to join the US Army, even as they preached the slaughter of non-Nazis.
And when these Nazi SS priests massacred Americans, these PC dolts would worry more about a potential backlash against moderate Nazis than the safety of Americans.
PC Kills.
