"He said the only thing he was going out there to do was blow up the bridges."

So he liked to blow things up......hmmmmm.....

If this man has felt this way for so long, why did he continue his service in the military?????

[Smokin' Joe]

I suppose he could be sent out with an M-16 sans firing pin...and no grenades.

[countrydummy]

Not sure what miliatry justice is, but he should be brought back to his home town station, and the people should stone him to death once his treason is proved!

[nunoste]

If this dude is Muslim, then why not do him the honor of applying Muslim law for his transgressions. Its got to be something along the lines of stoning or impaling at the very least.

[JDGreen123]

I have a feeling this guy comes from a line of anti-Americans. How did he get that middle name, Fidel?

[countrydummy]

Sounds like a plan to me! I am most upset with this idiot! He planned to do further harm as far as I am concerned and did not think he would get caught so darn easily!

His fear of being persucuted is so pathetic! He should really be afraid of what is coming his way now! He should have weighed the virtues of right and wrong....for every action there is a reaction!

Oh, I had better shut up! lol

[sheik yerbouty]

I suppose the lamestream presstitutes will start whining that they were "honor students".

[Post Toasties]

Being a Muslim and a Leftist apparently allows incredible extremes of self-pity, an inability to see others as human and callous selfishness.

[hmmmmm]

His mother is using the last name Bilal and one of his addresses is the Bilal Islamic Center? Well, then...

and her 1st name is Quran, I must remember it's a religion of peace.

Note that Sgt. Muhammad was never prosecuted, in spite of committing attempted murder. This guy was guilty of insubordination, and considered an "attitude" problem, yet was permitted to remain a sergeant. Am I all wet, or would a white guy who acted the same way be able to skate the same way these guys did?

``He wouldn't try to take nobody's life,'' she said. ``He's not like that. He said the only thing he was going out there to do was blow up the bridges.''

More like he was going to burn up his bridges. On Fox News, I remember a reporter saying that at roll call/ inventory, "Hasan" was discovered missing of the grenades he was supposed to have. Probably just a coincidence, though, right!?

I remember Sheykh Kabbani complaining about how the Wahabbis/Saudis were recruiting in US prisons with their radical brand of islam....then we got John Muhammed and Lee Malvo, now this....anyone else doing the math here?

[rwfromkansas]

This is absolutely hilarious. So, this idiot feared he would be "arrested for being Muslim."

Please explain this to me, mother of this terrorist, as it makes no sense whatsoever. Unless he did something bad due to his Islamic faith, he would have nothing to fear.

[boxerblues]

This piece of crap should be shot....the first night they were reporting that he was from the 327th ENG, I freaked out thinking that was my sons unit, got out all my info on my sons and breathed a sigh of relief as I had not heard from my son as of yet. Now to find out he is from the 326th which is my sons unit I really want to do harm to this person my self.

[rwfromkansas]

keep us updated.

[Jumper]

"mamma, I fear they are going to arrest me...." He knew he was going to commit an act of violence against his fellow soldiers! Premeditation!!!

[Theresawithanh]

Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Muslims....

[Joe 6-pack]

A white guy would have been smoked...

[Freedom2specul8]

Sniper ping list...grab your beer or hanky..

[piasa]

Hmmm. The Bilal Islamic Center, is that familiar to you, Lion's Cub?
