Five years ago, thirteen soldiers were murdered by Major Nidal Hasan at Fort Hood. Twenty-nine + other persons were wounded.
Our president, Mr Barack Hussein Obama and his sycophants, insisted that this was nothing more than “workplace violence.” And that it was unforeseeable:
The U.S. Government has declined requests from survivors and family members of the slain to categorize the Fort Hood shooting as act of terrorism, or motivated by militant Islamic religious convictions.[14]
Hasan, on November 5th of 2009, yelled “Allahu Akhbar” upon the cutting down of these American soldiers.
The US Army knew that Hasan was an Islamist but did nothing because they feared their superiors.
Days after the shooting, reports in the media revealed that a Joint Terrorism Task Force had been aware of a series of e-mails between Hasan and the Yemen-based imam Anwar al-Awlaki, who had been monitored by the NSA as a security threat, and that Hasan’s colleagues had been aware of his increasing radicalization for several years. The failure to prevent the shootings led the Defense Department and the FBI to commission investigations, and Congress to hold hearings.
They feared themselves being labeled as racist or religionist. They feared the weighty violence of Political Correctness coming down upon them and affecting their careers and their future.

Fort Hood Victims Release Scathing Statement on 5 Yr Anniversary
by Cardigan
Five years ago today, the terrorist Nidal Hasan yelled “Allah akbar” and, wearing the uniform of an U.S. Army major, began slaughtering Americans. Fourteen innocent people lost their lives and over fifty were injured. For five years, Hasan has bragged of committing this atrocity in the name of Islam to protect the Taliban.
Hasan’s victims saw their lives forever changed that terrible day. But the real tragedy of Fort Hood was that our government could have easily prevented their suffering. The U.S. Army and FBI had long known that Hasan was a jihadist with al-Qaeda connections and, simply by following their own standard policies and procedures, easily could have stopped him before anyone was hurt. Instead, because of what the Senate Homeland Committee’s investigation called “political correctness,” the government willfully averted its eyes to Hasan’s jihadism. Hasan should have been arrested. Instead, he was promoted and given other special privileges.
Incredibly, the government’s policies of political correctness and special privileges for Hasan continued even after his killing spree.
And, five years later, Islamist Nidal Hasan still breathes air and is not dead. He was sentenced to death on August 28, 2013. He is paralyzed from the waist down but he is not yet dead.
He should be.
If the US is looking for a volunteer executioner, I gladly raise my hand.
Choose me. Give me a Colt .45 and one round. Inexpensive justice placed against Hasan’s temple. I’d even welcome the blowback unless he has AIDS, which he could. I’d have to check first.
But I’d still sleep like a baby that night.
