We’ve had three terrorist attacks on American soil in Obama’s first 11 months in office. Thankfully we were spared a catastrophic outcome on Christmas Day. Obama and his coven of leftist lawyers seek to criminalize the war against radical Islamist terrorists, treating their institutional demise as a matter best suited to the federal courts. Al Qaeda operatives appear unimpressed with the presidential threats of federal prosecution, having stepped up their efforts in Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, Yemen and in...

The Army, in turn, put him through college and then medical school, where he trained to be a psychiatrist. But Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, the 39-year-old man accused of Thursday’s mass shooting at Fort Hood, Tex., started having second thoughts about his military career a few years ago after other soldiers harassed him for being a Muslim, he told relatives in Virginia.
