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.

You’d have thought the military would have thrown him out....instead they made him stay in!

Who can we depend on to keep us safe ..... both from terrorists and P C?

Just heard a shrink on Fox talking about all the stress Hasan was under. Had to shut it off, what a barferama. Even Fox has gotten the memo.

Screw the media; they have their collective heads up their asses.

For an unvarnished response (from a past patient of WRAMC -not a "Dr. Hassan" patient, thank God) to the PTSD defense being floated by the MSM and Mr. Hussein Obama, read this and please pass the link along.

Arm yourselves everywhere! Better to be judged by your peers in a possible jury trial for breaking some unconstitutional dumbassed law than to die without a battle!

Instead of looking into the mosques, I think the feds should make them into the new place where gays and lesbians marry.

Two birds, one stone.

Ok, maybe not. But I’m just throwing out ideas.

I try not to be around when Geraldo is talking, but I did hear him denounce the guy. Kept referring to “impotence.” Also talked about his own vast experience in military environments.

What is frightening is that the FBI did not know this in advance. If they really did know about all of the high jackers and knew Hasan had made internet postings, why did they not make a connection!

Fairfax County, home to Falls Church, is one of the major frontlines of Islamist aggression. We have:
The Dar al-Hijrah Wahabbi corridor which is a massive Islamist enclave built up around the mosque

"We were thoroughly warned in advance about Hasan.
So this cannot have been terrorism."


“Army Major (Hasan) Played Role in Presidential (Obama) Transition”

Before the 911 Atrocities (now ‘Natural tragedies’),
the Islamic terrorist community forewarned everyone exactly what
was coming in their handy calendar, a year in advance.

No one in Congress ever cared, then, after 911, or now.
Instead, the traitors have tirelessly worked to have American taxpayers pay to let more terrorists in.

*sigh*

As Dear Reader said, we will probably never get to the real reason he did this - at least "officially".

Everyone paying the slightest honest attention knows "why" but nobody in any position of authority wants to see it or say it.

Andrew McCarthy is right (see my tagline)...

Every story, in just about every publication, mentions that Hasan became more radical, following the death of his parents. Now we know why.
