A cousin of the man suspected of opening fire at Fort Hood, Texas, says his family is shocked and saddened by the tragedy.
Nader Hasan of Falls Church, Va., said in a statement issued late Thursday that he and his family are filled with grief for the families of the victims. Twelve people were killed and 31 were wounded in the attack.
He says that Nidal Hasan's family knows little about what happened, but that they want to send "our most heartfelt sympathies" to the families of the victims. He also says that Hasan was raised in America, and that his family loves and is proud of their country.

“their love for the US have to do with anything?”
Maybe they think it will keep outraged Americans from throwing pig manure on the front lawn?/s
Have they verified his religion yet?
I like it that they said that, tho. But, unfortunately, I have a burning hatred for their slimeball son.
Do they attend the same mosque the Texas jihadi attended, the one some of the 9/11 attackers attended?
Thank you Mr. Hasan. It’s a privelege to have you and your family in our midst. Watching Nightline right now and the Islamic aspect whitewash has already begun.
He also said they were paying his brother six figures a year.......
And the proof that he is a cousin is what???? The perverts mother and father are dead.
By the time Atta and Shehhi returned to Virginia Beach from their travels in Georgia, Hazmi and Hanjour had also arrived in Virginia, in Falls Church. They made their way to a large mosque there, the Dar al Hijra mosque, sometime in early April.73
As we mentioned earlier, one of the imams at this mosque was the same Anwar Aulaqi with whom Hazmi had spent time at the Rabat mosque in San Diego. Aulaqi had moved to Virginia in January 2001. He remembers Hazmi from San Diego but has denied having any contact with Hazmi or Hanjour in Virginia.74
At the Dar al Hijra mosque, Hazmi and Hanjour met a Jordanian named Eyad al Rababah. Rababah says he had gone to the mosque to speak to the imam, Aulaqi, about finding work. At the conclusion of services, which normally had 400 to 500 attendees, Rababah says he happened to meet Hazmi and Hanjour. They were looking for an apartment; Rababah referred them to a friend who had one to rent. Hazmi and Hanjour moved into the apartment, which was in Alexandria.75

MIM: Dar Al Hijrah mosque was named as the most dangerous mosque in America by Paul Sperry in his book Infiltration and is located in what he calls DCs Wahhabi Corridor.
Dar Al Hijrah has given aid and support to terrorists and is linked to the 9/11 hijackers. The congregation consists of many Muslims who are involved in politics major Muslim organisations and fundraising fronts in the Washington area. The founder of the Free Muslims Against Terrorism , Kamal Nawash, worshipped at Dar Al Hijrah and also solicited clients for his legal practice which was nearby.

From this I'm guessing they still attend the Dar Al Hijrah Islamic Center.
The connection is that almost every attack by muslims in this country have gone through this mosque, including the shooter in Pittsburgh, the shooter in Arkansas, and the shooter at the immigration center last year who was alienated just like Cho, and whom the muslims befriended and were sympathetic to his plight.MestaMachine, post 161@Who is Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan?
He said they were the only ones who would talk to him, all the way up to the end.
Its what they do. They seek out people with mental problems and pretend to empathize. Then they turn them. These guys are usually on heavy antidepressants. Add some heroine, and you have a slave aka a suicider.
I guess I should have pinged you @ post 16, since I quote you. Hope you don’t mind.
No. of course I don’t mind. This needs to be known, and however it GETS known is just fine by me. But thanks for the ping. Keep posting it. Send it to your friends.
Travis, it’s coming.
You don’t hire a military attorney.
