    I guess we shouldn't be surprised, but a Washington D.C. based Muslim named Khadeeja Nuur has created a FaceBook Page offering prayers for the recovery of Fort Hood murderer Dr. Nidal Malik Hasan. The page seems to have been started sometime before Friday at 3PM and she features this main message in her information section: Together we pray for the recovery of Dr. Nidal Malik Hasan, MD. May Allah see fit to return this loyal son of Islam back to perfect health. Sallalahu Alayhi Wa Sallam. Initially, it appears that a few Muslims celebrating Hasan's evil actions were leaving messages...

    So home grown jihadi, Hasan earned a major’s pay but lived in a $325 per month apartment. He didn’t date, wanted no contact with women. He didn’t socialize with friends. He did spend a lot of time at a Wahhabi mosque. Where did his money go? Was he just a really good saver or was he sending money to jihadi groups? Why is nobody even asking about this?

Private Francheska Velez, 21, of West Kamerling was one of the thirteen killed by Hasan at Fort Hood Army base on Thursday. "She was the best I have. The light of my family," Juan Velez said of his only daughter. "She was living my dream -- to be part of the military, part of the United States. To be part of something. Just to give back to the United States because this is where we are from." Pvt. Valez was three...

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.

Why not give everyone the chance to read it and debate it? How much will this bill cost us? It’s unclear because the figures coming out of Washington keep changing – and always in the direction of costing more, not less. The latest numbers show it will cost more than a trillion dollars over the decade, but when has a government program ever come in on or under...

Why would Obama (after he said that he did not have all of the information) say that the police officers "acted stupidly" yet was not quick to condemn Hasan by calling him a Muslim terrorist? Why does Obama show restraint when talking about people like Hasan, yet does not show restraint when talking about police officers like Crowley?

    Does anyone wonder why Methodist Dick Cheney didn’t run over his own daughter when she came out of the (gasp) gay closet? Or why anaesthesiologist Capt. Mary Hanna didn’t decide to stage a massacre at her Army base because she had a resurgence of her Coptic Christian faith just before being deployed?

    Horrible news from Ft. Hood, Texas. 12 dead and 31 wounded by a soldier with a Muslim background, one who used to go to his prayers dressed proudly in the uniform of the American soldier. God help CAIR if they blame anyone but the perpetrator for this massacre. Andy McCarthy also has commentary here, courtesy of NRO, though the shooter was actually not a convert.

    Imagine in you will, a conservative anti-abortion Christian going on a shooting rampage in an abortion clinic. Would the stories that followed such a tragedy include the phrase “… motive remains unclear?” But that is what we find in all the MSM stories on this murder spree. From the Virginian Pilot: Hasan's motive remains unclear, although various sources said he is a devout Muslim who is opposed to U.S. involvement in Afghanistan and Iraq and was upset about an imminent deployment. He also had expressed some anger about the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. With the exception of the “devout...

    Scribd ^ | Malik Nidal Hassan (?)
    NidalHasan scribbled: There was a grenade thrown amongs a group of American soldiers. One of the soldiers, feeling that it was to late for everyone to flee jumped on the grave with the intention of saving his comrades. Indeed he saved them. He inentionally took his life (suicide) for a noble cause i.e. saving the lives of his soldier. To say that this soldier committed suicide is inappropriate. Its more appropriate to say he is a brave hero that sacrificed his life for a more noble cause. Scholars have paralled this to suicide bombers whose intention, by sacrificing their lives,...
