Fort Hood shootings
What can’t we understand about the Fort Hood murders? The "experts" on television muse on how someone of the high rank of major could betray his comrades in arms. Since the Revolution, traitorous acts have come from ranks as high as Gen. Benedict Arnold. Nidal Malik Hasan is a murderous traitor, period. If he is mentally deranged, then so were kamikazes and every other person who ever went on a suicide mission. He planned what he did and did it. And it’s not even suicidal, only dangerous. If he goes to trial, could a slick defense attorney could get him off because of pre-traumatic stress syndrome. It’s disgusting. It was premeditated murder with a twist of betrayal. He saw no betrayal, but we did. But our "pundits" never read the Quran to see the command to call no infidel "friend" and to use half-truth, equivocation and deception to outwit. Contrary to reports, it was impossible for Hasan to target "friends" because he was not allowed to call them that. It’s so hard to love someone, to befriend them, when you are required to hate them. But we have to anyway. It’s the Christian thing to do. But don’t be fooled or foolish. — Katherine Holt, Fort Worth In another November, 1963 to be exact, I was living in Dallas when Lee Harvey Oswald assassinated President John F. Kennedy. I had never heard of Oswald and had absolutely no knowledge of his plans and actions until he did what he did. However, many people worldwide blamed all the people of Dallas for killing the president.Please, let us not place the blame for the actions of one crazy Muslim at Fort Hood on all people of the Islamic faith.— Margaret C. Hamlin, Fort WorthI am so angry I could scream. Like everyone, I’m angry at the whacked-out psycho who killed and wounded our fine young soldiers at Fort Hood. But I am furious at the military leadership’s procedures that allowed it to happen. Five hundred unarmed soldiers in a large room with no security? That’s a dream situation for radical jihadists who have dedicated their sorry lives to killing us all.
If that had been three terrorists with assault rifles rather than one deranged man with two handguns, the death toll would likely have been in the hundreds. It’s a military base, for God’s sake. It has no shortage of manpower or weapons. Assign a squad or platoon, if necessary, in combat gear, weapons locked and loaded, to protect our protectors wherever they gather. They deserve nothing less.— Robert Roark, Arlington Another known Muslim antagonist within our military ranks has committed another mass murder. Remember the Marine who blew up several other Marines in Kuwait?Like a swat on the back of the head, we are reminded that our bureaucrats, administrators and politicians are ultimately responsible for these killings at Fort Hood and elsewhere. They are deeply addicted to the drugs known as multiculturalism and political "correctness." Just as the heroin addict does, they must regularly inject themselves with these poisons to advance what they have somehow come to believe is "the right thing to do," or "we can’t even think of someone being uncomfortable."
