"Ft. Hood suspect was Army dilemma; His extreme views possibly overlooked in favor of diversity" by Bryan Bender, Globe Staff | February 22, 2010
WASHINGTON - Army superiors were warned about the radicalization of Major Nidal Malik Hasan years before he allegedly massacred 13 soldiers at Fort Hood, Texas, but did not act in part because they valued the rare diversity of having a Muslim psychiatrist, military investigators wrote in previously undisclosed reports.
Oh, what a PILE of S***!!!!!
He was a potential terrorist, but we value diversity here in the AmeriKan Army -- as long as you are not gay.
An obvious “problem child’’ spouting extremist views, Hasan made numerous statements that were not protected by the First Amendment and were grounds for discharge by violating his military oath, investigators found.
And yet he was PROMOTED!!!
Examples of Hasan’s radical behavior have previously been disclosed in press accounts based on interviews with unnamed Army officials, including his defense of suicide bombings and assertions that Islamic law took priority over his allegiance to the United States....
I really don't want to comment anymore because this article is nothing but a government cover story passing as a page-one lead.
The Globe was permitted to review the Army’s more complete findings on the condition that it not name supervisory officers who did not act, some of whom are facing possible disciplinary action.
Translation: the government chose them as the conduit for this crap.
In searching for explanations for why superiors did not move to revoke Hasan’s security clearances or expel him from the Army, the report portrays colleagues and superiors as possibly reluctant to lose one of the Army’s few Muslim mental health specialists.
They actually think we are going to believe this BS?
The report concludes that because the Army had attracted only one Muslim psychiatrist in addition to Hasan since 2001, “it is possible some were afraid’’ of losing such diversity “and thus were willing to overlook Hasan’s deficiencies as an officer.’’
PFFFFFFFFTTT!!!
“Several of his supervisors explicitly mentioned Hasan’s potential to inform our understanding of Islamic culture and how it relates to the current conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan,’’ the investigators found.
Why not just as a "terrorist?"
In one classroom incident not previously described by the Army - which parallels another episode around the same time that has received press attention - Hasan gave a presentation in August 2007 titled “Is the War on Terrorism a War on Islam: An Islamic Perspective.’’
The answer is yes; however, what garbage.
Yeah, Pentagon went back and said give them this, too.
I'm not believing s*** out of these liars until they start telling the truth.
But the presentation was “shut down’’ by the instructor because Hasan appeared to be defending terrorism. Witnesses told investigators that Hasan became visibly upset as a result....
And NO ONE DID ANYTHING ABOUT IT, huh?
But based on Army documents, interviews with witnesses, and sworn statements to the FBI, the review panel’s findings provide the most detailed picture yet of Hasan’s transformation from a bright prospect in the Army’s medical corps to a loner with increasingly extremist views.
This is about the time I check out on the MSM s*** shovel.
They also contain the first official acknowledgement that superiors at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, where he began his residency in 2003, were repeatedly informed of Hasan’s radical statements but did not do anything about it....
Maybe he never made them.
New details also emerge of Hasan’s pattern of radical behavior, the first signs of which were detected in 2005, according to at least four officers who worked with him at the time and spoke to the FBI and Pentagon investigators. In 2006, Hasan met with an academic adviser to see whether he would qualify for conscientious objector status, saying he opposed the war in Iraq on religious grounds, according to a sworn statement from the adviser.
I must be one of those without the religion.
But when he said he was not opposed to the war in Afghanistan it was agreed that he did not qualify because his religious views did not appear to conflict with all combat. In 2007, when he was completing a two-year fellowship that included a master’s degree in public health, his extremist views grew deeper and his work performance also declined, officers told investigators....
So says the lying government!
The behavior continued as he entered the master’s degree program in public health later that summer, according to the testimony of multiple Army officers. “Other officer students repeatedly raised concerns about Major Hasan’s preoccupation with Islam, including allegations by students that Major Hasan justified suicide bombing and stated Sharia law took precedence over the US Constitution,’’ the report said....
As if the government was abiding by that document!
And if he was saying this, he should have been DISCHARGED IMMEDIATELY!
We are AT WAR!!
Doesn't the Pentagon know that?
It was during this period, one of his instructors told investigators, that he thought Hasan’s internal conflicts placed him at risk of developing psychosis.
But by heavens, DO NOT DO ANYTHING because we value DIVERSITY -- as we drop missiles and bombs on them from unmanned drone aircraft!
For his second year of fellowship study, the findings also reveal, Hasan proposed conducting a survey of Muslim US soldiers to explore whether they believed their religious beliefs conflicted with their duties. The proposal was titled “Religious Conflicts Among US Muslim Soldiers’’ and was presented in June 2008. Hasan wanted to pursue the research further, “but because of the sensitive nature of the topic he was unable to obtain approval from an institutional review board,’’ investigators wrote.
Indeed, Hasan’s views and behavior were so well known that before he was transferred to Fort Hood in July 2009 a senior health official at Walter Reed informed a counterpart at the Texas base, the investigation found. In fact, the report says Hasan was assigned in July 2009 to the medical center at Fort Hood in the first place because at least two superiors expressed concern that he “should not be sent to an assignment where he would be the sole provider.’’
It was a GLOWING PROMOTION at the time, dear readers!!

Tired of the MSM LYING YET, America?
And this guy will never have a chance to tell his side of the story:
BELTON, Texas — The Army psychiatrist charged in the deadly shooting spree at Fort Hood will be kept isolated from all other inmates at the jail where he was transferred early yesterday, the local sheriff said.
Major Nidal Hasan was airlifted from a San Antonio military hospital to the Bell County Jail in Belton about 4 a.m. yesterday....
Bell County Sheriff Dan Smith said Hasan will be kept in a 12-by-15-foot cell in the jail infirmary and be under 24-hour watch. Smith did not say whether Hasan was under guard because of fears for his safety or others.
If he turns up dead or as a "suicide" -- oh, STINK!!!
Hasan will not have contact with other inmates, even when a jailer accompanies him to the outdoor recreation area, Smith said. Hasan’s doctor visited the jail and said that it was well equipped to handle his medical needs, Smith said. Hasan will not have Internet access, but he can read the and speak to visitors in Arabic, two things forbidden at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, the sheriff said. Fort Hood authorities will take Hasan to the nearby Army post for hearings and other matters, he said.
WhereTF is his lawyer?

And what does this ultimately boil down to?
UNCONSTITUTIONAL TYRANNY!
"Pentagon to boost ties to fight terrorism; Fort Hood killings leads to change" by Gary Martin, San Antonio Express-News | April 16, 2010
WASHINGTON — The Pentagon vowed yesterday to work closer with law enforcement agencies about potential terrorist threats after a study commission criticized the military for poor coordination in the case of Army Major Nidal Hasan, who is accused of killing 13 people at Fort Hood, Texas, last year.
And thus further erode the Posse Comitatus Act.
Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates also said the Pentagon will adopt a uniform policy on personal gun ownership at military installations.
The policies were announced as Senator Joe Lieberman, a Connecticut independent and chairman of the Senate Homeland Security Committee, accused the Pentagon and Justice Department of stonewalling his investigation into the shooting by refusing to provide documents and witnesses.
I see his name and my first reaction no matter what it is is "F***him!"
“We have been met with much foot-dragging, very limited assistance, and changing reasons why the administration cannot provide us with the information,’’ Lieberman said. Lieberman and Senator Susan Collins of Maine, the top Republican on the panel, said they would issue subpoenas next week for FBI agents and Defense Department officials who were aware of Hasan’s contact with a radical Yemeni cleric before the shootings on Nov. 5....
Yeah, Bush, Rove, and the rest never see a subpoena, but Congress is going to get the Pentagon!!!
The Pentagon also said that it was expanding an FBI and military threat reporting system to flag suspicious incidents.
Yes, the TIPS and the TAPS and AL the OTHER COLORFUL SPY PROGRAMS NEVER WENT AWAY, America!
And you are PAYING FOR THESE LIES in terms of LIBERTY and MONEY!!!!
The announcement added that Gates wanted to work with the FBI and to establish a database to share information.
But if you HOLLER FASCISM you are a CRAZY CONSPIRACY THEORY and a TEA-BAGGER THREAT!!
PFFFFFFFFFTT!!!!
Another change would be to implement a departmentwide policy on how private weapons are stored and carried on military installations.
THAT is what this is REALLY ABOUT!
Identifying soldiers who DISSENT and DISARMING THEM!!!
Of course, that means MORALE is S***, doesn't it?
And that the PENTAGON is WORRIED about the LOYALTY of the TROOPS!!
Meanwhile, there is a WHOLE PUBLIC they have LOST because of the LIES!!!

And Joe always follows through on his threats:
"Senate panel demands Fort Hood files" by Associated Press | April 20, 2010
WASHINGTON — A Senate committee subpoenaed the Obama administration yesterday for secret documents and access to witnesses in last year’s mass shooting at the Fort Hood Army base in Texas.
The subpoena is a rare public dispute between a Democratic-led Congress, which has been largely supportive of President Obama’s policies, and the administration, which prides itself on increased government transparency....
And YOU KNOW WHO is the one stirring it up!
And they PRIDE THEMSELVES on something they DO NOT HAVE?

Oh, I stand corrected.
I thought they were talking about spying and torture.
Yes, there is troubling violence within the Pentagon.
No, no, I didn't mean the mass-murdering wars based on lies.
Those are fine.
I meant some "kook" spraying gunfire around.
"2 guards hurt in Pentagon shooting; Alleged gunman dies of wounds; motive unclear" by Christine Simmons and Eileen Sullivan, Associated Press | March 5, 2010
WASHINGTON - The assault at the threshold of the Pentagon - the US capital’s ground zero on Sept. 11, 2001 - occurred four months after a deadly attack on the Army’s Fort Hood, Texas, post, allegedly by a US Army psychiatrist with radical Islamic leanings. Last night, investigators did not think terrorism was involved but were not ruling it out. They did not discuss possible motives.
Law enforcement officials identified the suspect as John Patrick Bedell, 36. They said they were speaking with a second man, who might have accompanied the shooter, and were checking his identity. The subway station is immediately adjacent to the Pentagon building, a five-sided northern Virginia colossus across the Potomac River from Washington. Since a redesign following the 2001 attack, riders can no longer disembark directly into the building. Riders take a long escalator ride to the surface from the underground station, then pass through a security check outside the doors of the building, where further security awaits....

"Pentagon shooter troubled; Worried parents had warned police" by Mary Pat Flaherty and Theresa Vargas, Washington Post | March 6, 2010
WASHINGTON - In the eight weeks before John Patrick Bedell put on a white shirt and blazer, parked his 1998
Oh, no, another Manchurian candidate!
On Thursday evening outside the Pentagon Metro station, Bedell, a troubled 36-year-old Californian who loved marijuana, computers, and conspiracy theories, shot two Pentagon officers before one of them shot Bedell in the arm and head, killing him.
Oh, HERE WE GO AGAIN!!!!
So the war games went live again?
The PROPAGANDA becomes SO OBVIOUS after a while.
Police records and interviews with those who knew him describe a man who had been slipping into increasingly disturbed thinking for years but whose behavior became uncharacteristically erratic only in recent months In early January, a Texas Highway Patrol officer stopped Bedell near Texarkana, Texas, for speeding. Bedell’s car was in “disarray,’’ the officer noted, and the driver was lurching up and down and rocking on his knees, repeatedly hanging up on a series of cellphone calls that Bedell said were from his mother. Concerned about Bedell’s mental state, the officer called his parents and learned that they had filed a missing persons report - one that noted Bedell had been “detained for mental evaluation before.’’
Police records show that Bedell’s mother, Kaye, who works as director of allied health at Gavilan College in Gilroy, Calif., told the Texas police her son was OK, and he was sent on his way. Bedell, according to police, said he was heading to the East Coast but instead drove home. He wouldn’t stay long. On Feb. 1, Bedell hit the road again and was stopped by an officer in Reno. He had drifted across traffic lanes and stopped yards short of a stoplight, according to a police report. Bedell was charged with possession of marijuana after a pink marijuana pipe was found in his pants pocket.
Bedell made bond. On Thursday, he showed up at the Pentagon, parked in the Pentagon City Fashion Centre garage, and made his way to the Pentagon’s main entrance. There, in an exchange that lasted less than a minute, two officers, Jeffrey Amos and Marvin Carraway, were superficially wounded, one in the shoulder and one in the thigh. They and a third officer returned fire, mortally wounding Bedell. Federal law enforcement sources said Bedell used a Sturm 9mm and a Taurus 9mm. Officials with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives said it could take several days to trace the source of the guns he used and are working with authorities in California.
Richard Keevill, chief of the Pentagon Force Protection Agency, said police and the FBI are examining surveillance video that shows Bedell approaching the Pentagon and have tracked his weeks-long road trip from California to the Washington area. “There are no indications at this point that there are any international or domestic connections to this incident at all,’’ Keevill said. “At this time, it appears to be a single individual that had issues.’’

"Pentagon gunman sought ‘truth’ about 9/11
"Given that the majority of people no longer trust the official story of 9-11 it seems likely that anyone reaching their breaking point and shooting at the Pentagon (or crashing a plane into the IRS) has already decided that the government should not be trusted on anything that it says. The government and media are going to spin this latest attack as a condemnation of anyone who fails to believe as the government orders them to believe I think this only reminds all Americans that they are not alone in wondering just what really happened (cheap plug) on 9-11.
And sure enough:
Bedell left an electronic trail thick with written, video, and audio manifestos. In an audio address posted on the Internet, he suggested that after the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy the United States had been infiltrated by a cabal of gangsters he called the “coup regime.’’ Bedell believed that the group has continued manipulating the country “up to the present day’’ and was probably responsible for the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and the Iraq war.
Yes, you see, if you TELL the TRUTH you are CRAZY!!
In recent years, in conversations with friends and in Internet postings, Bedell seemed obsessed by what he saw as attacks on personal liberty.
Perfectly okay of you are bent on world domination!
He was especially irked by criminal penalties for marijuana use, said Reb Monaco, a family friend who knew Bedell for most of his life.
Then he couldn't have been smoking any, huh?
Would have taken the irks right out of him.
But Bedell had never expressed hostility toward the military, Monaco said. Monaco said he and his wife were with Bedell’s parents as they learned how their son’s cross-country trip had ended. Police and the FBI said that at the Pentagon, Bedell had a full beard and wore slacks and a blazer - a sharp contrast to his appearances on the Internet, in which he appears clean-shaven, speaking softly about his invention of a stock market-like information exchange.
Known to friends as Patrick, Bedell “had gone off the deep end right before he left, his parents told us,’’ Monaco said after spending the night and morning at the family home.

For some reason that WaPo piece was rewritten after the printed paper came out. I dind't care to investigate the discrepancies today.
I'm sick of the MSM and its censorship and cover-up games.
I know that some people will insist this is a staged false-flag event, but like Joe Stack who crashed a plane into the IRS, this reads to me like a genuine case of an American who has just had enough, has reached their breaking point, and a government propaganda machine doing their usual "how can we use this to our advantage?" process.
Also see: Stack Attack
The reason I do not think this is a false flag attack is that staged false flag terror is directed at innocent lives, lots of them, to maximize the psychological shock value. In both the IRS and Pentagon cases, public opinion has little sympathy for the targets. False flag attacks have to have a live perpetrator, someone to put on trial, like Tim McVeigh, or even better to remain at large, like Osama bin Laden, to continue to fan the flames of public outrage and build public pressure to exact a revenge against the intended patsy. In both the IRS and Pentagon cases, the perpetrators are already dead, cutting off any possibility of revenge. Closure is forced on these events before then even get going.
Before the American revolution started in earnest it was preceded by numerous small actions in which angered colonials shot and killed British soldiers at random. The reason the British panicked at the intersection of Devonshire and State streets on March 5, 1770 was their awareness that the colonials had been shooting and killing their comrades. It appears we are in the same phase here." -- Wake the Flock Up
