At the end of Sunday’s Face the Nation on CBS, host Bob Schieffer offered commentary on the cause of the mass shooting at Fort Hood: “That doctor [Major Nidal Hasan] should not have been at Fort Hood. I don’t care how hard-up the Army is for mental health professionals....sadly, this shows the Army still does not take protecting soldiers’ mental health as seriously as it does training them to shoot.” Schieffer went on to argue: “And then there is the other part that often happens in government. Don’t deal with the problem, shuffle it off to somewhere else. When he...

“U.S. intelligence agencies were aware months ago that Army Major Nidal Hasan was attempting to make contact with people associated with al Qaeda, two American officials briefed on classified material in the case told ABC News.” http://abcnews.go.com/Blotter/fort-hood-shooter-contact-al-qaeda-terrorists-officials/story?id=9030873 “Months ago”!!! Yet Hasan was allowed to remain in the Army and, for all we know, was not placed under heavy surveillance!? WHY!? Just like when it comes to light that a school district or a church kept a known child-molester on staff and covered it up by shuffling him or her around, the powers that be in our military, political and intelligence...

MSNBC's Chris Matthews has said some things that would make your scratch your head - like getting a thrill up his leg from a speech given by Barack Obama. However, this one will really make you wonder what he was thinking. On his Nov. 9 broadcast of "Hardball," in an interview with Zuhdi Jasser, president of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy, Matthews compared the incident of Maj. Nidal M. Hasan at Ft. Hood to Sirhan Sirhan's 1968 assassination of Sen. Robert F. Kennedy. "You know, I have a hard time with this because people like Sirhan Sirhan, who is...

“That doesn't qualify as a terrorist attack,” said Carl Tobias, a professor of law at University of Richmond who analyzes terrorist investigations across the country. Understanding the Ft. Hood Attack: America’s the Bad Guy This I Know, Because My TV Told Me So By Barry Rubin thelastcrusade.org My teenage daughter watches the “Bones” series and described the latest program to me. An American soldier who had served in Iraq is found dead in the United States. FBI agents discover he was in a battle where U.S. soldiers had stormed a house and one of his friends was killed by...

Often when there is a mass shooting, people who knew the gunman find themselves wondering what warning signs they might have missed. So it is in the case of Maj. Nidal Hasan, a 12-year veteran in the U.S. Army, a native-born American, a trained and practicing psychiatrist — and the man authorities say opened fire on fellow soldiers at Fort Hood. Those who look for a ready explanation for the murderous rampage at Fort Hood can choose between two broad narratives: Maybe it had to do with the travails of an Army psychiatrist, dealing with soldiers who had been traumatized,...

Despite BOR's incessant interruptions, Lt Col Peters does a great job in setting the record straight on what this act of cowardice really was......the last minute is most powerful.

In 2008 The George Washington University Homeland Security Institute (HSPI) initiated a transition task force to help craft homeland security policies during Obama’s transition period. In May of 2009 HSPI finished its report titled, “Thinking Anew-Security Priorities for the Next Administration.” One of the members of this Obama transition project was none other than the Muslim murderer Nidal Hassan...

Interesting article about the shootings and the dangers of infiltrators. Article points out police stations are high risk for these attacks.

(For the law made nothing perfect), and a better HOPE is introduced, by which we draw near to God. Heb 7:18 Another 13 heroes sacrificed at the alter of Liberalism. Rather than noticing the obvious truth that they had a potential terrorist in their midst, the PC nazis allowed him to freely hate and kill our soldiers. The PC thugs are now trying to hide the real villian in this tragedy which is Islamo-terrorism. No, its easier to just let Americans keep getting killed by moderate Mooselips than pointing out that they represent a threat to our society and why....

Spending the better half of one day and one night searching the internet for information on the Ft. Hood Muslim shooter, Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, I have found this disturbing 2009 video from the online archives of C-Span in which the terrorist appears. There has been some reference to this video in US media but not widespread it seems. It is located HEREat C-Span.Nidal Malik Hasan was apparantly an invited guest to a public address in Washington by the Israeli Ambassador to the US, Sallai Meridor. Shooter Hasan took a seat in the second row nearly across from the...
