Actually, with his rabid support of massive zionist crimes against humanity (the world's biggest refugee problem - over seven million christians and moslems robbed, killed, expelled or put in concentration camps by zionist criminals), it is Lieberman who is the real terrorist. Time to put an end to israel-firsters like him parasitizing on America.

It is time to stop supporting racist, pseudo-jewish zionist criminals and begin supporting real jews. Here are some American jews with the right idea.
The Zionist Attack on Jewish Values
http://www.propeller.com/story/2009/03/22/the-zion...
Even before the Balfour Declaration was announced the danger to Judaism inherent in the Zionist state orientated ideology was sensed and critiqued by insightful Jewish individuals. They would describe their anxiety in varied ways, sometimes using political, or moral, or religious argument. All of them, however, could draw on a tradition of Jewish tolerance and humanitarianism...
As a result there has been a militarization of the Jewish mind, the Passover ritual and other Jewish celebrations have been turned into paeans of nationalism, imperialism and colonialism, and Zionist nationalists have invented (as a vicarious act of fratricide) the category of “self-hating Jew” for those who share their religion but not their politics. ...
...And what of those other, hopefully more authentic Jewish ideals, the humanitarian ones? They have gone over to a small minority of the Jewish people who seek to promote them as a curative to the values that underlie the aggressive and colonialist policies that now characterize Zionist-Israeli behavior. It is worth noting that this minority appears to be growing. Jewish activists, both within Israel and the diaspora, now organize and support boycotts, divestment campaigns, and demonstrations that spotlight the aggressive and oppressive policies of the Zionist state. These people are Judaism’s best hope for the future. They are also Israel’s best hope, in that the interpretation of Jewish values they preserve may help to eventually de-tribalize, and civilize that country. Civilitas successit barbarum — with struggle civilization can succeed barbarism.-

Hyperbola: you and Lieberman are two unreasonable extremists, sharing many traits.

The world would be a better place without having people alike you and Lieberman around.
Just my humble opinion, which could be wrong (not like yours, which is well-funded in
the perfect knowledge that Zionists=Jews are the root of all evil or Lieberman's who gets
his instructions from G*d). -

"For the scant reports that we have, Hasan was a deeply disturbed man who was troubled over being deployed to the Middle East to participate in war against his fellow Muslims. This attack could have just as easily been another American mass shooting by a deeply disturbed individual. Thus far, there is no evidence for the claim that this was an act of terrorism. I know that Lieberman is worried about his reelection prospects, but I can’t see how going on national television and making unfounded claims helps his cause."
or he could've been a disgruntled islamicist that just wanted to create a terror attack.
disturbed individual is a given.
nah! that'd be racial profiling, and we can't have that!!! -

In the end, I don't think it really matters what this man's motives were given the fact that mass shootings of innocent people is an American tradition. Unless he was connected with some grand conspiracy, hes just a link in a long chain. We have at least three or four of these every year.

I really don't know why all the "semantic arguments" here......
Reply
Did Major Hasan (or did he not) shout "Allah Akbar" while discharging his weapon(s)? Answer: he did.
Was/is he (or was/is he not) a Muslim? One who had posted statements online that glorified so-called "suicide bombers?" Answers: Yes, he is, and yes, he did.
Are the views to which he reportedly subscribed better described as views held by a majority of Muslims (which could be called "mainstream Muslim thought), OR are they better described as "radical Muslim thought" with relatively few adherents? Answer: his views are "radical Muslim thought."
The obvious conclusion is that Major Hasan was acting out his radical beliefs by shooting the 42 or so people at Fort Hood.
Was this a "terrorist attack?"
Well, it certainly was not an act of brotherly love, was it?
Perhaps the two words the Major chose to voice while shooting have some (perhaps, way more than slight) revealing significance.....
Was it something that the vast majority of Muslims living in the US would support? No, not in the least!
PC to say this (or not), Major Hasan's thoughts and actions were in line with Muslim terrorist thought and demonstrated modes of action.
That makes him a radical Muslim terrorist (albeit a solitary one) in my book........-

My understanding is that neither of those are established facts. That the FBI said that it's possible that he might have posted things like that. That some people (mostly right-wing pundits) are claiming he yelled "allahu akbar" but others are saying he didn't.
"Well, it certainly was not an act of brotherly love, was it?"
Not at all. -

No surprise here. Liberman, the senator from Israel who is willing to spill as much American blood as necessary to support Israel is using this to keep things stirred up. He supports an invasion of Iran. Just what we need, three wars at the same time. And anything to portray Islam as the enemy will help him achieve his war.

It's really sad that someone would use a horrible incident such as this to promote their own agenda. -

U.S. intelligence agencies were aware months ago that Army Major Nidal Hasan was attempting to make contact with people associated with al Qaeda, two American officials briefed on classified material in the case told ABC News.

Terror does not even require killing. Terror is the threat of harm: a reasonable fear that you are exposed to harm. Legally, threats such as those by an estranged husband that he is coming over to kill his ex-wife qualify as terrorist (unless the perpetrator is prone to making "idle" threats, so that his threats cause no terror in anyone). Islamist terrorists score a win whenever any act of violence:
Reply
1. raises the fear of harm in a population, and
2. can be "credited" or "attributed" to them.
Wouldn't AlQaeda love to claim responsibility for the shootings at Fort Hood, and to claim the shooter as only one of their infiltrators into the very Defense forces of the USA! Now that is scary (random mass killings: not as much)! Yeah, let's stir-up that notion up and give our enemies credit, and an increase in terror, they don't deserve. -

Thank you Senator Lieberman..

He is absolutely right.
Just wondering.. How many more of our young Military Troops, and Americans in general, will essentially be Sacrificed Up on the Alter of "Liberal Political Correctness", until it, finally, embraces the gutless, far left lunatic Elites, Themselves?? Only God knows.. -

Easy claim there Joe. but save the hate and the fear mongering for another day. try being more supportive of your own government rather than aid the dirtbags by creating fear and panic. America, your voters too, asked for a new direction, you picked the losing side to save your own butt and agenda.

you are more of a threat to America at times then they are..
self-righteousness and speaking whatever the lobbyists request does not mean you have a brain, just a puppet voice. -
