Fort Hood shooting: Texas army killer linked to September 11 terrorists Major Nidal Malik Hasan worshipped at a mosque led by a radical imam said to be a "spiritual adviser" to three of the hijackers who attacked America on Sept 11, 2001.

Hasan, the sole suspect in the massacre of 13 fellow US soldiers in Texas, attended the controversial Dar al-Hijrah mosque in Great Falls, Virginia, in 2001 at the same time as two of the September 11 terrorists, The Sunday Telegraph has learnt. His mother's funeral was held there in May that year.

The preacher at the time was Anwar al-Awlaki, an American-born Yemeni scholar who was banned from addressing a meeting in London by video link in August because he is accused of supporting attacks on British troops and backing terrorist organisations.

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.

As investigators look at Hasan's motives and mindset, his attendance at the mosque could be an important piece of the jigsaw. Al-Awlaki moved to Dar al-Hijrah as imam in January, 2001, from the west coast, and three months later the September 11 hijackers Nawaf al-Hamzi and Hani Hanjour began attending his services. A third hijacker attended his services in California.

“We all” already came to grips with “useful idiots” among us here on FR. Most of us, anyway!

Interesting. Somehow this will be Bush’s fault.

Mike, if you are a vet and have a gun, you are a potential terrorist according to Obama’s homeland security’s release to the FBI and police stations across the country. Worse, if you are clinging to your Bible at the same time. Worse if you support those extremist constitutional people or a third party.

Hason sat on Obama’s Homeland Security transition team...
Nidal Hason, no jumping to conclusions or you are a dirty racist commiting a hate crime.

We are always miles ahead of the pack.

Figuring this one out didn't even slightly test the deductive reasoning power of Freeperdom. Any moron could have connected the dots on this, from the minute we knew the killer's name.

As a matter of fact, I'm sure that morons all over the world figured it out without stressing their mental machinery.

The American left and the State-run Media are willfully refusing to admit the all too obvious truth.

The Muhahid teachings and practices are an elective sub sect of all Muslims.It is being tauught and practiced here in the USA. Its a secret community that ALL muslims know about. The Imams know where to send people who want to join it.

Muslims who call themselves peaceful need to start turning them in.

This is just about a last chance for Muslims in the USA to start turning them over.

Candor, your post is on the mark. I hope everyone reads it.

Since he posted the same thing to about 20 threads that shouldn't be a problem.

...Rush often laments how dramatic events always occurr when he's away somewhere.

It's getting scary. It seems lately that every single time Rush takes a day or two off, some incident of major importance occurs.

It's as though the collective evil in the world is afraid to try anything while he's on duty. As soon as he slips out of town, ka-boom! Something, somewhere blows up into a major story.

Hey, I was onto something the other night. The name jumped out at me as soon as I saw it.

Although, the article says it’s in Great Falls. Different than Falls Church. There is another huge mosque out by Great Falls, although it may actually be in Vienna or Herndon. Can’t remember where the boundaries are there. I assume the writer meant the one in Falls Church.

Spoke with my nephew who is in the military. He spends his time vetting/reading intel to determine its severity and validity. He said that they have been getting intel/chatter for a year about how the terrorists want to infiltrate the military. This is enough to make one sick. And pissed. And livid. Ok. I’m officially an angry white female.

It should be one for one. One suicide bomber explodes, his or her mosque explodes!

Best idea of the day.

"Are you saying that FReepers are morons?"

I don't think he meant that at all. I believe that he was saying that the nature of the incident was obvious to all but the most obtuse among us...namely our political class. He might have phrased it differently, but I'm certain that he wasn't insulting the people on Free Republic.

This is no different from all the hundreds of times Christians have yelled out "Jesus is great!" right before they blew themselves up in the middle of a crowded Muslim restaurant.

George Carlin had the sort of mind that could cut through the fog of hypocrisy like that. I nominate you to be our conservative Carlin.

Keep 'em comin.

I find this interesting - wonder if any of you can check it out?

On the FOX news site at
http://www.foxnews.com/

it has photos of the victims and a list of accompanying story lines. All of them load with no problem EXCEPT “Was Ft. Hood Shooting Terrorism?”

I couldn't get it to load - then finally, this popped up:
\
“Sorry, the page you were looking for could not be found”

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/11/07/terrorism-tragic-shooting-analysts-divided-fort-hood-mass/

Has it been scrubbed by the on e who intends to control the media? It's a brand new story, not an archive...

anyone else able to bring this up? Have they gone that far?

Notice its the UK telegraph publishing this getting out ahead of the DBM which is so easy to do these days. Our media will do anything to shield The Joker from any bad press truly disgusting.

fromn

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,572859,00.html

“About an hour later, surveillance cameras at a 7-Eleven across from the base captured images of a smiling Hasan, dressed in a long white garment and white kufi prayer cap, buying his usual breakfast — coffee and a hash brown.

At the processing center on the southern edge of the 100,000-acre base, soldiers returning from overseas mingled with colleagues filling out forms and undergoing medical tests in preparation for deployment.

Around 1:30 p.m., witnesses say a man later identified as Hasan jumped up on a desk and shouted the words “Allahu Akbar!” — Arabic for “God is great!” He was armed with two pistols, one a semiautomatic capable of firing up to 20 rounds without reloading.”

nah, not an act of a jihardist terrorist - move along

(The WH ‘scrubbers’ must have missed this - it’s still on the net)
