The AWOL soldier is Pvt. Nasser Jason Abdo. Applied for conscientious objector status after only one year in the Army. Another Muslim. Why am I not surprised?

Fox just reported that it was our local gun stores that called the police. He was buying ammo at various stores. The police found him with a back pack with explosives and jihadist material.

"Fox News has obtained the names of three possible suspects, but is currently withholding that information."

Now, I wonder why Fox News would withhold information from the public that was made available to them? They wouldn't be trying to keep us from jumping to any conclusions, now would they?

From our local paper...

http://www.kdhnews.com/news/story.aspx?s=58840

An AWOL soldier from Fort Campell is in the custody of the Killeen Police Department amidst allegations he was planning a second attack on Fort Hood.

The man was arrested Wednesday afternoon on a child pornography warrant, according to a KPD spokeswoman, who would not confirm or deny the terroristic threat.

A Fort Hood spokesperson said an arrest was made yesterday by KPD on a soldier that’s not from here, but did not have additional details. He said national media is “reporting something we haven’t heard about.”

Maybe a look into training background while in Army, would render some clues about this pvt. and associates?

It’s sounds complicated. Fox also reported that he had jihadi material and explosives in a backpack.

Up on the Fox News website now:

"Pvt. Nasser Jason Abdo, an AWOL soldier from Fort Campbell, Kentucky, was arrested by the Killeen Police Department near Fort Hood and remains in custody there. Authorities, however, will not say if Abdo is the one who raised security concerns.

Abdo was allegedly found with weapons and explosives at the time of his arrest, a senior Army source confirms to Fox News. He was arrested at around 2 p.m. Wednesday after someone called authorities to report a suspicious individual."

There will be more of this.

Heck, there has been more, but it has been happening in Iraq or Afghanistan. Easier to keep quiet.

From Houston Chronicle's blog:

Pvt. Nasser Jason Abdo, an AWOL soldier from Fort Campbell, Kentucky, was arrested by the Killeen Police Department near Fort Hood and remains in custody there. Authorities, however, will not say if Abdo is the one who raised security concerns.

KCEN-TV is reporting two other U.S. soldiers were arrested after authorities recovered weapons and explosives.

Well, we put guns in the hands of Mexican drug cartels so why not Muslims who want to kill us as well? Where is the common sense? What country am I living in?

Bob Jenkins, a Fort Campbell spokesman, told Fox News that Abdo was also being investigated for child pornography found on his government computer.

Abdo went AWOL on July 4. On the eve of his first deployment to Afghanistan — after only one year in the Army — Abdo applied for conscientious objector status. It was denied by his superiors at Ft. Campbell but later overturned by the Assistant Deputy Secretary of the Army review board.
