Ft Hood shooter: Islamic terrorist or one of Obama’s antiwar base

Obama’s base objects to the Iraqi/ Afghan wars as does Hasan.

A mass shooting at the largest army base in the US has left 13 people dead and at least 31 wounded, military officials say. The incident took place inside the Fort Hood military base in Texas as soldiers were awaiting medical and dental treatment at a processing centre for troops being deployed on missions to Iraq and Afghanistan.

The suspect has been named as Major Nidal Malik Hasan, a 39-year-old army psychiatrist. "There was a single shooter that was shot multiple times at the scene. He was not killed as previously reported. He is currently in custody and in stable condition," Cone said. Hasan was born in the US to Muslim Palestinian parents who had emigrated from a small town near Jerusalem, US media said.

Further bloodshed was narrowly prevented when Hasan was apparently blocked from reaching a graduation ceremony attended by some 600 people, just metres away from the scene. "Thanks to the quick reaction of several soldiers, they were able to close off the doors to that auditorium," Cone said.

"Hasan became more devout in his religion and started arguing with soldiers about whether the wars were right or not, to the point where he received disciplinary action and negative work reviews."He was transferred to the medical facility here at Fort Hood, where apparently these feelings continued.

Hasan faced his own imminent deployment for military service, officials said. Nader Hasan, a cousin, said Hasan was "mortified by the idea of having to deploy" and that he had been harassed by other soldiers for being a Muslim. He told the New York Times newspaper that Hasan had retained a lawyer and sought to get out of the army before the end of his contract.

The base commander at Fort Hood says soldiers who witnessed a shooting rampage that left 13 people dead reported that the gunman shouted "Allahu Akbar!" before opening fire at the Texas post

Since Hasan was handing out Qurans before and shouting "Allahu Akbar!", it seems more likely of Islamic extremism not a violent antiwar reaction.

We are in a war on terrorism and the Islamic Extremists want to continue their death attacks in the US. We need to be what we can to protect ourselves . Unfortunately, Obama wants to appease the Islamic Extremists.

It should be noted that some American Muslims have condemn the Ft. Hood attack.
