Twelve people have been killed and 31 wounded in a shooting spree at a Texas military base by what officials believe was possibly carried out by an Army officer.

The suspected gunman was identified by ABC News as Major Malik Nadal Hasan.

The shooter was killed and two other suspects, who are also soldiers, have been apprehended, Lt. Gen. Robert W. Cone said.

The gunman used two handguns, Cone said. He wasn't sure if the shooter reloaded the weapons during the attack.

Pentagon Convenes Fort Hood Shooting Task Force

By Army Sgt. 1st Class Michael J. Carden
American Forces Press Service

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23, 2009 – The leaders of the Pentagon’s review board on the Fort Hood, Texas, rampage reported for duty here today to begin their 45-day investigation to what led to the mass shooting, a Pentagon official said.

The Nov. 5 shooting at Fort Hood’s Soldier Readiness Center left 12 soldiers and one Army civilian dead and 30 others injured.

Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates announced Nov. 19 that the initial review board will be headed by former Army Secretary Togo West and former Chief of Naval Operations Vern Clark.

West and Clark met with their staff, which consists of representatives from each of the military services, for the first time today. They are: Army Gen. Carter F. Ham, U.S. Army Europe and Seventh Army commander; Navy Vice Adm. Michael C. Vitale, commander of Navy Installations Command; Air Force Lt. Gen. Richard Y. Newton III, Air Force deputy chief of staff for manpower and personnel; and Marine Corps Lt. Gen. Willie J. Williams, director of the Marine Corps staff.

The panel will review possible weaknesses in Pentagon policies, programs and procedures in hopes of preventing similar incidences in the future, Pentagon spokesman Bryan Whitman told reporters.

Also, West and Clark are scheduled to meet with Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates this afternoon to further outline and address his intents.

“They have a very tight timeline to operate off of,” Whitman said. “It’s a very ambitious task that the secretary has given them.”

The terms of reference for the investigation, which was publically released today, will guide the task force in their review. The Pentagon’s review is independent of the criminal investigation, as well as those by the inspector general and White House, and doesn’t employ the task force to take action against people suspected of withholding information that may have prevented the incident.

According to the terms of reference, the Pentagon’s review will not overlap with President Barack Obama’s review of intelligence matters related to the shooting or investigations of individuals in the intelligence community.

“The charter is to look at things outside of any criminal- or liability-type review that’s taking place,” Whitman explained. “This is not a criminal review, [but] they’ll certainly make recommendations.”

The review will take a closer look at personal reliability programs, counseling programs, procedures on the handling of defense employee’s adverse information, medical screening and pre- and post-deployment evaluations. It also will take into account force protection programs, emergency response policies and the functionality and adequacy of those programs, policies and procedures.

The task force’s review will lead to a follow-on investigation that is expected to last four to six months, Whitman said. The more in-depth review will entail each service selecting an investigative panel that will report their findings up the chain of command to a department-level panel. The departmentwide group will assess the findings and identify changes needed in policy and procedure, as well as areas where additional resources are required.

“This effort here will largely inform what the broader, sustained efforts will be,” Whitman said. “This will not be exclusively what determines the longer-sustained efforts. But all of the energy of the department is going to go into assisting these two prominent individuals in this very quick look” at the events that led to the shooting.

Gates is very confident in West and Clark to head the task force, Whitman said, adding that their history of service and compassion for servicemembers makes them more than credible and qualified.

“When you take a look at the individuals [Gates] asked to lead up this panel, these are two very prominent Americans that have a tremendous amount of experience with the United State military, and have, over their many years, established a reputation of caring about the men and women in uniform,” he added.

As of now, West and Clark are not expected to be part of the follow-on review, he said. The panel’s final report is due to Gates by Jan. 15.

Meanwhile, a military magistrate at Fort Hood on Nov. 21 ordered shooting suspect Nidal M. Hasan to remain in custody until the trial, which has yet to be scheduled, a Fort Hood press release issued today says. Hasan has been in custody and in the hospital since the Nov. 5 shooting.

Fort Hood officials are concerned about protecting the integrity of the judicial process, and all further updates about the criminal proceedings will be released by the Army’s Criminal Investigative Division, the release says.

U.S. Representative Michael McCaul attended a military briefing this morning and found out that Hasan had taken "a lot of extra classes in weapons training, which seems a little odd for a psychiatrist." In retrospect -- and combined with information that Hasan had started yesterday by giving away some of his personal effects, such as furniture -- it appears that his assault at Fort Hood wasn’t the result of a man under extreme pressure suddenly snapping. Instead, it looks like a calculating murderer took the time to prepare for his attack well in advance.") (November 5, 2009)
PAGE SNIPPET: "NidalHasan There was a grenade thrown amongs a group of American soldiers. One of the soldiers, feeling that it was to late for everyone to flee jumped on the grave with the intention of saving his comrades. Indeed he saved them. He inentionally took his life (suicide) for a noble cause i.e. saving the lives of his soldier. To say that this soldier committed suicide is inappropriate. Its more appropriate to say he is a brave hero that sacrificed his life for a more noble cause. Scholars have paralled this to suicide bombers whose intention, by sacrificing their lives, is to help save Muslims by killing enemy soldiers. If one suicide bomber can kill 100 enemy soldiers because they were caught off guard that would be considered a strategic victory. Their intention is not to die because of some despair. The same can be said for the Kamikazees in Japan. They died (via crashing their planes into ships) to kill the enemies for the homeland. You can call them crazy i you want but their act was not one of suicide that is despised by Islam. So the scholars main point is that "IT SEEMS AS THOUGH YOUR INTENTION IS THE MAIN ISSUE" and Allah (SWT) knows best. 05/20/2009"

Awlaki is hands down the most cited English language preacher in the underworld of online jihad. And what was Hasan's view of al-Awlaki? Hasan's eyes "lit up" when he mentioned his deep respect for al-Awlaki’s teachings, according to a fellow Muslim officer at the Fort Hood base in Texas, the scene of Thursday’s horrific shooting spree.")

“Probe in Fort Hood Intensifies”
By RUSSELL GOLD
(November 25, 2009)

FORT HOOD, Texas —

SNIPPET: “Former colleagues of Maj. Hasan said he espoused fervent Islamic beliefs and a deep-seated opposition to the U.S.-led wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Former medical colleagues also said his professional work was substandard. The probe will look at whether military policies failed to identify Maj. Hasan as a potential threat and whether his patient care was acceptable.”

Panel Leaders Tour Rampage Site, Describe Mission

By Jim Garamone
American Forces Press Service

WASHINGTON, Nov. 24, 2009 – The leaders of an independent review panel toured the scene of the Fort Hood, Texas, shooting rampage today and described how they view the panel’s mission.

Former Veterans Affairs Secretary Togo West and retired Adm. Vern Clark spoke at a short news conference at Fort Hood. The two men met with Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates yesterday and received their charge from him.

The panel will review the circumstances surrounding the Nov. 5 shooting to see how future incidents could be avoided. “We will look at policies and procedures that look at how we deal with servicemembers who may cause trouble or harm to their fellows,” West said.

The review is to look at personal reliability programs, counseling programs, procedures on the handling of defense employee’s adverse information, medical screening and pre- and post-deployment evaluations. The panel members also are to look at the response to the incident and see how these procedures could be improved.

Today’s trip to Fort Hood was important to starting the review, Clark, a former chief of naval operations, said.

“It was important to me to see the site, walk the ground and really see the setting,” he said. “Today’s activities have been immensely valuable in providing the baseline of factual information upon which we will grow the rest of the information that is required to conduct the assessment.”

Clark said he was impressed with the Army’s 3rd Corps leadership team. “I just want to single out ... the leadership team at the hospital,” he said, adding that the panel also is charged with evaluating the performance of the first responders. “The story about how the first responder team performed is very, very encouraging. It not only involves the leadership team here at Fort Hood, but it involves the leadership teams of the hospitals in the local area and the manner in which they all responded.”

West reminded everyone that the panel is not conducting a criminal investigation and will not interfere with the criminal case against Maj. Nidal M. Hasan, the Army psychiatrist charged with 13 counts of murder who remains hospitalized in intensive care.

West said his group will “not point fingers. We are here to accumulate information and offer our best judgments to the secretary of defense.”

The investigation is departmentwide, Clark said. “The secretary charged us to find the gaps that make us less effective than we desire to be, and to do that, we will go over a wide range of things after we go through the discovery process.”

The panel report is due to Gates by Jan. 15.

“Daveed Gartenstein-Ross: The danger signs of terror”
Posted: November 24, 2009, 9:00 AM by NP Editor
terrorism, Daveed Gartenstein-Ross

SNIPPET: “In the wake of U.S. Army Major Nidal Hasan’s shooting rampage at the Fort Hood military base in Texas, experts are debating the process by which people are radicalized into accepting militant Islamic beliefs. Looming large in this debate is the spectre of “profiling,” which some commentators reject as Islamophobic. To focus on Muslims, they argue, is to suggest that all Muslims are suspect.

Hasan seems to have been motivated by jihadist ideology.”

SNIPPET: “Unfortunately, attempts to engage in serious study of the radicalization process have met with chilly receptions. The NYPD study in particular generated enormous controversy. While that study is by no means above criticism, many critiques suggested that any exploration of this difficult area should be off-limits.

The same kind of arguments have surfaced in the wake of the Fort Hood shootings. If commentators really believe it is inappropriate to explore how terrorists have radicalized, that is their prerogative. But let’s be honest about the kind of profiling that is relevant here. From my perch, it seems that understanding how terrorists are made can be used as a tool to protect rights rather than violate them — to avoid the kind of generalized suspicion that the opponents of profiling rightly fear.”

Hood, killing 13 and wounding 30 others) as a victim of the “Zionist American” government that is employing a program of “psychological warfare” to “oppress Muslims.”

This is a clear example of what the Center for Terrorism Research at the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies has termed “Cause Célèbre Islam.”

Cause célèbre Islam forecasts an inevitable violent revolution between American Muslims (particularly African American Muslims) and the U.S. government. As-Sabiqun is one of the most visible and vocal groups that typifies cause célèbre Islam. Publicly, As-Sabiqun’s founder, leader, and imam, Abdul Alim Musa, does not appear to share religious wisdom or guidance. Rather, his constant theme is that of threats and harassment against Muslims by the U.S. government. The most recent issue of the CTR Vantage covers cause célèbre Islam; its origins and its current manifestations.

The leaflet As-Sabiqun intends for distribution at holiday celebrations tomorrow refers to President Obama as “Judas Goat” - suggesting that he is a puppet who leads Muslims to the slaughterhouse. The leaflet also declares that As-Sabiqun charges the U.S. government with “high crimes and treason.” The ultimate purpose of the leaflet is the raise money for As-Sabiqun to transform its old masjid facilities into the “Islamic Institute for Counter Zionist American Psychological Warfare” - framing it as something of a headquarters from which they can launch a counter-attack on the U.S. government in the war they perceive is being waged against them.”

“U.S. Islamists Congratulate Fort Hood Murderer, Urge Muslim Soldiers to Follow His Example”

SNIPPET: “A U.S. based jihadi forum has issued a statement calling Nidal Hasan a hero and urged Muslims in the U.S. Army to follow his lead and attack their fellow soldiers:

We hope other “Muslims” in the US army repent from their apostasy and take [Nidal Hasan] as a role model, instilling fear in the enemies of Allah and taking them by surprise wherever they may be

The statement also condemns Muslims in the West for speaking out against the attack.”

“The imam’s very curious story
A skirt-chasing mullah is just one more mystery for the 9/11 panel”

By Chitra Ragavan
Posted 6/13/04

SNIPPET: “The probe of the 9/11 attacks soon led Washington FBI agents back to San Diego, where they found that al-Awlaki had twice been busted for soliciting prostitutes in 1996 and 1997 but had avoided jail time. Al-Awlaki has previously described these charges as “bogus.” But FBI agents hoped al-Awlaki might cooperate with the 9/11 probe if they could nab him on similar charges in Virginia. FBI sources say agents observed the imam allegedly taking Washington-area prostitutes into Virginia and contemplated using a federal statute usually reserved for nabbing pimps who transport prostitutes across state lines. But in March 2002, al-Awlaki abruptly left the country for Yemen.”

“US major may have sent funds to LeT in Pak”
TNN 27 November 2009, 02:09am IST

SNIPPET: “Sources aware of the FBI investigations into the killings by Hasan said the army psychiatrist, who went on a rampage killing US armed forces personnel, regularly wired money to LeT in Pakistan. Coming just after the arrests of two Lashkar jihadis — David Coleman Headley and Tahawwur Hussain Rana — the finding is seen as a manifestation of LeT’s growing clout in the US.

Congressman Peter Hoekstra had earlier claimed to have received information from independent sources that Hasan may have wired money to contacts in Pakistan suggesting that he had links with terror groups based in that country. Hoekstra, who is also a member of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, said US agencies were probing Hasan’s links in Pakistan.

Investigations since, according to sources here, had identified recipients of Hasan’s money as Jamat-ud-Dawa — the front organisation of Lashkar. Sources said the accused, who regularly accessed Hafeez Mohammad Saeed’s speeches on JuD’s website — had wired thousands of dollars to contacts known to the LeT chief.”

“Anwar al-Awlaki, the Infidel”
Brian Fishman
November 20th, 2009 | U.K., USA

SNIPPET: “[Editor’s note: I am extremely happy to present a new ad-hoc contributor. He should be known to most Jihadica readers: Brian Fishman is a former director of research at West Point’s Combating Terrorism Center and the author of several landmark studies on al-Qaida in Iraq, several of which are available here. He brings us quite a story today.]”

SNIPPET: “Since the awful shootings at Fort Hood, media attention has focused on MAJ Nidal Hasan’s relationship with Anwar al-Awlaki, an American-born salafi preacher now in Yemen. Less well known, however, is that al-Awlaki was once declared kafir (infidel) by then London-based jihadi Sheikh Abdullah al-Faisal.”

SNIPPET: “The available snippets of al-Awlaki’s San Diego tape, al-Faisal’s reaction to it, and al-Awlaki’s more recent statements about violence suggest that al-Awlaki went through a radicalization process of his own. Al-Awlaki’s statements in a February 13, 2004 interview with National Public Radio illustrate the tension that ultimately seems to have led Nidal Hasan to violence. Pressed about the role of Muslims in the West after 9/11 and the invasion of Iraq, al-Awlaki condemned 9/11 strongly but explained that “after the bombing (the invasion of Iraq)…the conversation shifted…Muslims are torn between solidarity with their religious fellowmen and their fellow citizens.””

“Imam’s e-mails to Fort Hood suspect tame compared with online rhetoric”

By BROOKS EGERTON / The Dallas Morning News

SNIPPET: “A TIMELINE OF TWO LIVES
The lives of Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan and Muslim cleric Anwar al-Awlaki intersected long before the Fort Hood shooting.”

Former classmate of Fort Hood shooter: Nidal Hasan was “an outspoken jihadist”

At this point these facts are well known, but here is more confirmation. I’ve received the message from a doctor and former classmate of Nidal Hasan:

He was an outspoken jihadist. He stated publicly that Shariah Law came before the Constitution that he swore an oath to uphold. He did off topic presentations in public health classes on how the War on Terror was a war on Islam. Other courses, he justified suicide bombing.

We complained to faculty, but the PC climate in the military prevented any action that might have been taken against him. Now there are 13 people dead and scores more wounded.

“Muslim website calls for attacks against USA just 4 days before Fort Hood attack”
November 29, 5:22 PMTrumbull County Conservative ExaminerJohn Hull

SNIPPET: “The muslim website kavkaz center published an entry from Sheikh Anwar Al-Awlaki calling for jihad against the United States on November 1, 2009, just 4 days prior to the Fort Hood tragedy.”

SNIPPET: “Is it a coincidence that Hasan carried out a terrorist attack 4 days later?”
