Muslims at Fort Voice Outrage and Ask Questions »
Posted By tehranchik 1 week, 6 days ago in Political OpinionLeaders of the vibrant Muslim community here expressed outrage on Friday at the shooting rampage being laid to one of their members, Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, who had become a regular attendee of prayers at the local mosque.
But some of the men who had befriended Major Hasan at the mosque said the military should examine the policies that might have caused him to snap.
“When a white guy shoots up a post office, they call that going postal,” said Victor Benjamin II, 30, a former member of the Army. “But when a Muslim does it, they call it jihad.
“Ultimately it was Brother Nidal’s doing, but the command should be held accountable,” Mr. Benjamin said. “G.I.’s are like any equipment in the Army. When it breaks, those who were in charge of keeping it fit should be held responsible for it.”

My good friend, you need history classes, and you need to read more news and watch more news and do not digest what they say, rather take it all and then analyze. I think you have a weak background in history so I will not discuss much with you.

If a Muslim swore an Oath of Service he would be as bound by it as surely as any other Person of Faith.

Oath Breaker? A Muslim who broke such an Oath would never reach Heaven. There is something not quite right about this.
I want to know more.-

Well I reckon you have not read their holy book, I have read almost all religious holy books and I have not digested them but analyzed them for 40 years and still am.

To me, what I found rather similar to each book was one of the great lines..
Do Unto Others As You Would Have Them Do Unto You - Matthew 7:12
I reckon you have not read Bible or any of the translations.

There is some inherent conflict in fighting Iraqis to "save Iraq" and fighting Afghans to "save Afghanistan" and fighting "Islamists" to "save Islam". The stress must be tremendous, on our soldiers, in trying to distinguish who is the enemy and who is not, when common sense tells you the Iraqis, the Afghans and the Muslims are the enemy.

None of the comments mentions the possibility that this was another Zionist false flag terrorism operation. Why did the initial AP story say three men were involved and one was killed? Why was this mass murder instantly treated as Islamic terrorism by the entire mass media and nearly every disinformation agent on the Internet? No one treated the Columbine or Virginia tech massacres as terrorism? Read

Everything About Nidal Malik Hasan Screams “Patsy”
Killer’s pre-rampage behavior is completely at odds with the idea of him preparing to massacre more than a dozen of his colleagues.

For the facts, read "Questions about an early AP Ft. Hood shooting article."

I've got a few questions.
Why did officials initially say that THREE gunmen were involved and that TWO of the gunmen wore military uniforms? Why were these two other soldiers detained as suspects? Why were they released?
How did the gunman go from being reportedly killed to stable condition later in the day? How did he go from stable condition yesterday to being in a coma today?
The civilian policewoman who allegedly shot Hasan was also reportedly killed, only to also survive later. How could reporting from "officials" be this inaccurate after several hours?
I tend to believe the earliest news reports are the most accurate, before the "official story" is presented, where it gets repeated ad nauseum into "facts." Just like the numerous reports of "secondary explosions" on 9/11 by many different people which were never repeated again. http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread517407/p... -

Fort Hood Shooting 'Oddities'

'Three people are involved. That, by definition, means it is a conspiracy.'
•CNN: FBI was investigating Major Nidal Hasan six months ago
•Curiouser and Curiouser: -Video surfaces of alleged shooter, Major Nidal Hasan, attending Homeland Security Task Force conference --Major Hasan's name appears on page 29 of The George Washington University Homeland Security Policy Institute's 'Thinking Anew—Security Priorities for the Next Administration' --Proceedings Report of the HSPI Presidential Transition Task Force - April 2008 - January 2009. The report is dated 19 May 2009.
•Numerous media accounts: Major Hasan's neighbors, medical trainers, colleagues, friends, cousin, uncle-- even the store owner to where he bought his food -- all heap praise on Major Hasan's temperament. This appears to be psy-ops, six ways to Sunday. --LRP http://www.legitgov.org/attack_on_fort_hood_051109...
