I wonder , has the Obama administration has thought up any charges against the survivors?
Exactly. If the hateful left really believed in a “woman’s right to choose”, they would at least agree that children are human in the womb if the Mother “chooses” them to be so.
The way the extreme leftist law is now allows “boyfriend punch abortions”, which are not uncommon.
Any punishment for this needs to start at the White House and go down through the Pentagon, and punish those who have occupied the top positions for at least a couple of decades and ushered the insidious and perverse sickness of political PCness into the decision making of the armed forces and other areas of the federal government.
isn't that the way it always is... blame the lowest rank that satisfies the need to feed the beast. The policy followed by flag officers and DOD bureaucrats is what led to the islamic (feces be unto him) jihadist murdering our troops and the PC continues by not allowing weapons on a base.
Of all the pathetic things i've heard of, even donut munching wanna-be special operator keystone cops are allowed to carry their weapons. So the security of the base depends on rent-a-cops or local PD. f'ing beautiful day in paradise. heck the local Walmart allows concealed carry but a man/woman TRAINED to operate a weapon isn't allowed to have one.
yum-yum....
Lesson learned, make super-d-duper that NO FIREARM signs are big enough so that people like this jihadist will stay away from bases with weapons. Nidal probably didn't see the sign posted on the building and should have been more prominently displayed. Maybe even in several languages.
While I do think the military wants scapegoats, I also believe that anyone who ever was a rater or senior rater of Hassan, who also knew of his problems, and who did not honestly evaluate him made a terrible error in judgement that has injured the US Army.
One doesn’t need to evaluate his religion to evaulate his professionalism, attitude, demeanor, prospects, etc.
Any rater or senior rater who can be shown to have known of Hassan’s extreme nature, and who nonetheless rated him highly, should have, at a minimum, a letter in their file zeroing out their rating scheme and stating that they are demonstrated incapable of professional evaluations of subordinates.
Is that a career killer? You bet. And with Hassan being a doc, and a major, that will nail an awful lot of colonels and a few generals, too. No way I can see, though, that this would go to the top of the military. Gen Petraeus, for example, is almost totally dependent on a man’s former commanders to give him a fair picture of any new man coming his way.
WTF... its damn if you do, and damn if you don't!
"Stagnated" does not even come close to what they would have experienced if they had stuck to reality. I know I experienced significant pressure as a Lieutenant (Platoon Leader) endorsing a career E-6 that was never going to see E-7 if I had anything to do with it. I took crap from both the Platoon Sergeant and the Battery Commander. The E-6 in question was a member of a protected minority. This around 1980 so I know it's only gotten worse in 31 years.
I’d like to see Gen George “Diversity is Strength” Casey get some admonishment over this.
Hasan worked in the White House at one time and was known to Obama.
Hasan’s evaluation at Reed was so poor he wasn’t recommended for promotion but that was overridden.
I would like to know who ordered Hasan promoted to Major. My guess it was the White House.
Will these nine officers be tried and convicted before Hasan?
Yes, it’s deplorable - that level of corruption that allowed Hasan to move - as a muslim infiltrator - through the Army. And yes, heads should roll.
But FGS... start by swinging Hasan by a noose. Then move on.
These will be the sacrificial lambs. Of course, I’m sure they are complicit but you can bet the PC attitude went all the way to the top. That’s how to get promoted in today’s Army.
Amen. It came down from the top that all officers and personnel were to be “more tolerant of other cultures”.
I wonder why the WH would want a relatively low-ranking Army Psychologist/Psychiatrist (don’t remember which he was) working for them?
He was part of a transitions team assigned to the White House. That is how Obama met fellow Muslim Hasan.
I’m guessing one of them isn’t Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, M.D.
“The military is pursuing scapegoats. This definitely a ‘top down’ problem, not a ‘bottom up’ one. They need to scour the Pentagon of all Islamicists.”
Agree - the military is taking a HUGE CHANCE here, as these guys, with decent counsel, will NO PROBLEM putting together a defense that will probably include being forced to read the Koran, bend down on a flying carpet, and learn some Arabic.
Anyone who thinks that military officers, if left to themselves, would EVER ignore a threat like Hassan has a lot to learn about the military.
Islam and its co-conspirator “political correctness”: The enemies within.
Bull Sh**t!
Every person is born a thinking person. If you are so wimp, cowardly, warped to a supposed ethos( Hitler defense ), then you are a human intellectual suckerfish, for money and status.
Lay down for a bit of cloth and a 2 dollar PX badge, then that is your price.
That anyone volunteers anymore is a miracle.
God Bless our military.
Damne if you do, others get murdered if you don’t. ( Go to noon chow line )
