Fort Hood captain: Hasan wanted patients to face war crimes charges (UnFreakin Believable)
The Dallas Morning News ^ | November 17, 2009 | BROOKS EGERTON

Posted on 11/17/2009 7:34:13 AM PST by Grumpybutt

Fort Hood massacre suspect Nidal Malik Hasan sought to have some of his patients prosecuted for war crimes based on statements they made during psychiatric sessions with him, a captain who served on the base said Monday.

Other psychiatrists complained to superiors that Hasan's actions violated doctor-patient confidentiality, Capt. Shannon Meehan told The Dallas Morning News.

One day after the Nov. 5 attack that killed 13 and wounded 29, a Fort Hood official said she had never received complaints about Hasan's job performance. Col. Kimberly Kesling, deputy commander of clinical services at the base's Darnall Army Medical Center, also said he was a "hardworking, dedicated young man who gave great care to his patients."

I still don't understand why this man wasn't taken out of service before his terrorist attack on the base

Well, Obama will make this happen for him.

Could this guy have been any more obvious? He was jumping up and down with a sign that screamed “Look at me! I’m a terrorist!”

“Nidal Malik Hasan sought to have some of his patients prosecuted for war crimes based on statements they made during psychiatric sessions with him, a captain who served on the base said Monday.”

They might use this as an insanity defense, "rehabilitate" him an set him free. They are insane enough to do this.

“I still don't understand why this man wasn't taken out of service before his terrorist attack on the base.”

Political correctness stopped them form doing that.

What is even more unfreaking unbelievable is Charley Gibson on ABC news last night was using this as an EXCUSE for Hasan, essentially once again blaming BUSH for this loose cannon Hasan to murder his fellow marines.

Yup, no matter what, it is all BUSH’s fault, right Mr. Gibson?

This *&^%^((( f-ing *(&^$#*&&**_.
The point of getting the help is that normal Americans are not a violence prone people ( I know I know). The War experience ofcourse brings feelings of guilt.
It is the shrinks job to help the client work through those feelings to reach the logical conclusion that self-defense of the Nation requires harsh actions.

Charley Gibson on ABC last night, paraphrasing:

Gibson: It could very well be that the military’s failure to prosecute patients Major Hasan was treating for “war crimes” they admitted to Major Hasan while he was treating them set this chain of events off. Major Hasan had any number of times demanded the military pursue war crime charges for his patients that made statements while being treated that Major Hasan considered war crimes, but each time the military refused to pursue that avenue.

If Col. Kimberly Kessling is stating that the goat fornicator was better than sliced bread there ain’t anyway a subordinate is going to tell her different.
Unless, of course, the col is a lying sack.

Don’t they have mental hospitals in the army for guys like that?

Too bad they couldn’t have tossed his sorry ass in a padded cell somewhere & thrown away the key before he could do this.

PC is bad enough but I had no idea that a military base was a gun free zone. That makes absolutely no sense to me.

He so meticulously planned this attack. There is no way he gets off due to “insanity”. Could his lawyers try it?...Sure, they can TRY anything.

Hitler’s mind and thought processes could have been CALLED insane...however, Hitler (like Hasan) knew what he was doing. He had an exacting rationale for his actions and specific plans to carry them out. In that sense he wasn’t “out of his mind”.

By any reasoning that would find Hasan insane, Hitler and his ilk could be excused for all those killed in WWII including 6 million Jews.

If he really is paralyzed the Army will have to give him special treatment in his sentencing. I suggest a wheelchair ramp for the gallows and a slightly longer rope to reach his neck in the sitting position.

But, but, he COULD be insane. So what if he KNEW what he was doing. His INSANITY is what made it not wrong for him.

Of course I want him executed. I’m just trying to show you how they could twist this thing. Of late, I put NOTHING past these terrorists running OUR COUNTRY.

This dirt bag took and oath to protect and defend which he violated with his Muslim first philosophy. Second he is a Dr. He took an oath there too. Part of that oath is Dr. patient confidentiality.

Yes ofcourse.
I have come into contact with soldiers that are suffering the guilt aspect of War.
Some very anry and some severly depressed.
There are plenty of WELL-qualified therapist working with them as we speak.
It is absolutely heartbreaking to see some of our young people suffering like this. I can only imagine what they are going through in Afgan/Iraq with the current politization of the WAR on TERROR.

Gibson is full of it.

I’ve never been impressed with his intellect.

Now, I’m even LESS so.

So, let me see...Hasan is going to be the judge of who should be prosecuted for war crimes, and his patients would be used to provide the material on which to prosecute...uh...his patients.

Therefore, he felt justified in opening fire on unarmed people like ducks in a shooting gallery.

Sure, Charlie...suuuuuuurrrrre...

Meehan said one of his doctors tried to give Hasan a copy of the book last month. Hasan refused. The captain said he had previously avoided Hasan, who was one of a small crew responsible for interviewing soldiers and writing up summaries of their condition.

"I heard he was not one you wanted to go to" because he didn't finish his work promptly, Meehan said. "Apparently

the reason it took so long is he was turning it over to legal."

Well well well. Jihad by infiltration and subversion of the military legal system. Give the SOB credit for inventiveness.

Because Hasan was a Muslim. That would be “profiling” and “racist” not to mention discriminating again his “creed.”

It’s very simple. PC trumps all, even in the military.
