Traitor: The Fort Hood Shooter and His Al Qaeda Terrorist Communications

Fort Hood shooter: Army Major Nidal Hasan is a traitor and possibly a terrorist
The bloody attack on Fort Hood was no spontaneous accident, was no pitiful “people called me a camel jockey” emotional snap of unleashed violence by an unhappy, unbalanced Muslim.
Army Major Nidal Hasan is a traitor to the United States and is a proven al Qaeda ally, potentially al Qaeda member.
ABC News: Officials: U.S. Aware of Hasan Efforts to Contact al Qaeda:
Army Major in Fort Hood Massacre Used ‘Electronic Means’ to Connect with Terrorists
By Richard Esposito, Matthew Cole, and Brian Ross
November 9, 2009U.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.
It is not known whether the intelligence agencies informed the Army that one of its officers was seeking to connect with suspected al Qaeda figures, the officials said.
One senior lawmaker said the CIA had, so far, refused to brief the intelligence committees on what, if any, knowledge they had about Hasan’s efforts.
CIA director Leon Panetta and the Director of National Intelligence, Dennis Blair, have been asked by Congress “to preserve” all documents and intelligence files that relate to Hasan, according to the lawmaker.
On Sunday, Senator Joseph Lieberman (D-CT) called for an investigation into whether the Army missed signs as to whether Hasan was an Islamic extremist.
“If Hasan was showing signs, saying to people that he had become an Islamist extremist, the U.S. Army has to have a zero tolerance,” Lieberman told Fox News Sunday.
Investigators want to know if Hasan maintained contact with a radical mosque leader from Virginia, Anwar al Awlaki, who now lives in Yemen and runs a web site that promotes jihad around the world against the U.S.
In a blog posting early Monday titled “Nidal Hassan Did the Right Thing,” Awlaki calls Hassan a “hero” and a “man of conscience who could not bear living the contradiction of being a Muslim and serving in an army that is fighting against his own people.”
According to his site, Awlaki served as an imam in Denver, San Diego and Falls Church, Virginia.
The Associated Press reported Sunday that Major Hasan attended the Falls Church mosque when Awlaki was there.
The Telegraph of London reported that Awlaki had made contact with two of the 9/11 hijackers when he was in San Diego.
The Jerusalem Post, ‘Telegraph’: Alleged Fort Hood shooter Hasan prayed at 9/11 mosque:
Major Nidal Malik Hasan, the US officer alleged to have committed the Fort Hood massacre in which 13 were killed, attended the Dar al-Hijrah mosque in Great Falls, Virginia, where several of the 9/11 terrorists prayed, the British Telegraph reported Sunday.
According to the report, the FBI is investigating whether Hasan ever met with any of the 9/11 terrorists.
Imam Anwar al-Awlaki, has been described as an al-Qaida supporter and Hasan held “deep respect” for him, the Telegraph reported.
From Le·gal In·sur·rec·tion: Will The Truth Be Hasan’s Last Victim?:
It is not a good thing to jump to conclusions when there is a shooting, at least on the issue of whether the shooting was a mere crime or terrorism. On Thursday, I cautioned against jumping to the conclusion that Nidal Hasan was motivated by religious or political goals in the Fort Hood shooting, just because he had a Muslim name.
No need to jump to conclusions any more, the conclusion has been reached. This was an act of domestic terrorism committed for political and religious purposes. There may have been additional factors, or something which sparked the eruption at that moment, but there is more than sufficient evidence that Hasan sympathized with al-Qaeda, and made anti-American statements, to treat this as a terrorist act.
Now it even has been revealed that Hasan attempted to contact al-Qaeda operatives. As ABC News reports:
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.
From PumaByDesign001’s Blog: Fort Hood: Traitor Linked To September 11 Terrorists:
Our government, it appears, is giving more rights and freedoms to terrorists as they diminish the rights of Americans.
With all the alarms, flares and red signals going off, those who could have thwarted Nisan Malik Hasan’s treasonous assault did not. If authorities had attempted to intervene months ago before this pig became unhinged, they would have been reprimanded and accused of racism based on this traitor’s religion and last name.
So instead, hands tied behind their backs, they were forced to watch from the sides lines as a mad man with terrorist tendencies chose jihad over country and honor.
Although the military may share part of the blame because of their inaction, the blame goes much further. There is an Islamic friendly president in the White House who hates America. This left our military with little choice to do otherwise. For the record, it is not about Obama being Islamic friendly, but about everything to do with the fact that Obama is soft on Islamic jihadist whose reason for existence is to attack, murder and maim infidels.
While on that note, just as Hasan refused to raise a hand against fellow Muslims, we should keep in mind Obama’s Islamic heritage as he dithers on Afghanistan while granting Islamic terrorists free reign on our shores and off. Translation Muslims supposedly do not raise arms against fellow Muslims. Our president is no different.
Now 13 people are dead and countless others lying in hospital beds wounded from the actions of an unhinged loon who sought jihad.

Because of the onslaught of vulgar, left-wing extremist hate comments (often with the F-word, or worse) against Sarah Palin and/or her children, anti-Palin comments are not accepted for posting. Don't waste your time trying. There are plenty of liberal blogs and Obama-run media articles out there bashing Palin... post your hate-driven criticisms on one of those sites. My blog, my rules.
Infuriating!!!!!!!!!
How could this possibly happen? And we are supposed to NOT jump to conclusions???
Shut up, Obama! When you follow your own rules (cops act stupidly), maybe we’ll be listening to you! I don’t know who you’re leading, but you are not leading AMERICA!
Many American high fives should go the petite mother of two that brought this sucker down
Her name is Kimberly Munley, a civilian assigned to a first reaction force on the Army Post.
Well done Kimberly, YOU ARE A GREAT AMERICAN !!!!
Vicki, the source for the above info was AOL News, with her picture.
I intended to include that.
Thanks, AFVET – my intention is to research and do a profile of her, once the news cycle quiets down (ROFL).
She truly is a hero.
My heart and prayers go out to all the victims, the victims family and friends.
From all the news reports it appears this Major is a career military man and that in his current position for less than a year and was not going well. He did not want to be deployed and in fact wanted out of the Army, so he paid back his military student loans and hired an attorney.
The reason may have been that he was being harassed and called names like “camel jockey ”. I guess all that sensitivity training for those with bigotry tendencies are all for not. (Can training real change the way you were brought up?)
Another reason is called PTSD by proxy, the stress of treating PTSD in other soldiers make you go a little crazy yourself. Its even more stressful because most of the higher ranks don’t even believe in such thing as PTSD. Their denial prompts them to tell suffering soldiers to “drink it off.” Some civilians in the defense dept feel the same way no doubt IMO, it’s why hardly anything is mentioned of PTSD until one of these violent episodes occurs. These people see PTSD as a cop-out or an excuse. First we need to have an understanding that PTSD actually is real before we can ever hope to help treat it (does anyone believe that being shot at or killing your fellow man is not going to affect you in some way either then or in the future?). I guess with the high soldier suicide rate before and after deployment kinda takes care of the complaints from coming in (so those who said he should have just killed himself, well that’s already happening ). What real ticked me off when I heard that the military was trying to say that some soldiers coming back from this war with PTSD or other psychological disorders had “Pre-Existing Conditions” and that the military would not pay to treat them, I think it has been corrected but what a bunch of asses they break you and don’t want to pay, amazing.
The final issue is why does the military want to keep people in their ranks that no longer want to be there is it just sheer number? I mean is it ten percent, twenty percent. Is it that it is the only contract in the US that you can’t get out of unless to kill yourself or kill your fellow soldiers? It does not make any sense to me.
I guess the Major could just be another wacko like Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nicholas, of course McVeigh was executed and apparently because Nicholas became a Christian he received a life sentenced. I real think if he gets that far the Major will get the former and not in a million years the latter.
This is so messed up, hopefully they will make some changes that make sense.
Montana, with all due respect, I don’t agree with you.
Because he was called names (something that all of us, ALL of us no matter our gender or race, have endured through our lives), this somehow justifies his anti-American communications with TERRORISTS? I am not convinced this happened to any extent that would then justify his murderous actions. Statistics bear out that “Muslim hate crimes” are at a record low and have been dropping for the past five years. I know enough military folks that calling Hasan a “camel jockey” would have resulted in the name caller being smacked down and chastised by his peers for racism. Our soldiers are among the most non-racist people in any group worldwide. The term “camel jockey” is a rather mild insult, compared to those insults and attacks made on Jews, Catholics, Protestants, the Irish, women, blacks, gays, Native Americans, Asians, Hispanics, ugly people (all races), and overweight people (all races) through out history. This seems like a fabricated left-wing excuse for Hasan’s murdering of 13 people, which could have been 40 or more had a brave woman, Kimberly Munley, not taken him down.
Questions: Hasan’s affiliation with al Qaeda over a long period of time is not his fault? That yelling “Allah Akbar!” during his rampage of terrorism, of shooting young unarmed soldiers execution-style, is a normal consequence of PTSD? I agree that the warning signs were there for Hasan (now that he went on a terrorist spree, it’s easy to connect the dots) and the Army should have noticed them and addressed them, but I do not buy into his “victimhood” nor in the Army being responsible for his terrorism. Second guessing what the Army should have done is unfortuantely being an armchair referree and trying to shift any responsibility for this tragedy from Hasan to the Army. Nope, don’t accept it.
All terrorists are unhappy people. But not all unhappy people are terrorists.
Montana, I’m recommending that you read the whole piece again carefully – it appears you either skimmed it or didn’t read it at all. There is no “guessing” about McVeigh and Nicholas being soulless terrorists and traitors – Hasan is exactly, undeniably the same. Calling any of them “wackos” is an understatement for the death and destruction they planned and executed in Oklahoma City, while working with known terrorists. This nonsense about Nicholas not being executed because “he was a Christian” is poppycock, but if you have real documented sources to support that claim, I’m all ears.
Hasan’s terrorist ties are now cascading out of the woodwork… we’ll know much more about his traitorous al Qaeda communications by the end of the week. Much of the fringe media is trying to paint him as a sympathetic character that we should feel sorry for… what a crock.

From Fort Ord, where John Allen Muhammad, the D.C. sniper, who was executed at 09:11 pm. yesterday, learned to shoot––to Fort Hood, where Major Nidal decided to shoot––it’s a small world. And, the US Army is like a small town: http://theseedsof9-11.com
