FORT HOOD MASSACRE - WATCHDOG FOLLOWUP
Ltc. Allen West Ret. For Congress
We HAVE TO HAVE common sense and vision in the House of Representatives to provide southern Florida’s District 22 with the leadership sorely lacking from from those in power now
BY Allen West (extracts)
Nov 2009 - 13 American Soldiers were killed and another 30 wounded at a horrific mass shooting at US Army installation, Ft Hood Texas. As I watched in horror and then anger I recalled my two years of final service in the Army as a Battalion Commander at Ft Hood, 2002-2004. My wife and two daughters were stunned at the incident having lived on the post in family housing.
A military installation is supposed to be a place where our Warriors train for war, to serve and protect our Nation. On Thursday, 5 November 2009 Ft Hood became a part of the battlefield in the war against Islamic totalitarianism and state sponsored terrorism.
There may be those who feel threatened by my words and would even recommend they not be uttered. To those individuals I say step aside because now is not the time for cowardice. Our Country has become so paralyzed by political correctness that we have allowed a vile and determined enemy to breach what should be the safest place in America, an Army post.
We have become so politically correct that our media is more concerned about the stress of the shooter, Major Nidal Malik Hasan. The misplaced benevolence intending to portray him as a victim is despicable. The fact that there are some who have now created an entire new classification called; “pre-virtual vicarious Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)” is unconscionable.
This is not a “man caused disaster”. It is what it is, an Islamic jihadist attack.
We have seen this before in 2003 when a SGT Hasan of the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) threw hand grenades and opened fire into his Commanding Officer’s tent in Kuwait. We have seen the foiled attempt of Albanian Muslims who sought to attack Ft Dix, NJ. Recently we saw a young convert to Islam named Carlos Bledsoe travel to Yemen, receive terrorist training, and return to gun down two US Soldiers at a Little Rock, Arkansas Army recruiting station. We thwarted another Islamic terrorist plot in North Carolina which had US Marine Corps Base, Quantico as a target.
What have we done with all these prevalent trends? Nothing.

What we see are recalcitrant leaders who are refusing to confront the issue, Islamic terrorist infiltration into America, and possibly further into our Armed Services. Instead we have a multiculturalism and diversity syndrome on steroids.
Major Hasan should have never been transferred to Ft Hood, matter of fact he should have been Chaptered from the Army. His previous statements, poor evaluation reports, and the fact that the FBI had him under investigation for jihadist website posting should have been proof positive.
However, what we have is a typical liberal approach to find a victim, not the 13 and 30 Soldiers and Civilian, but rather the poor shooter. A shooter who we are told was a great American, who loved the Army and serving his Nation and the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) stating that his actions had nothing to do with religious belief.
We know that Major Hasan deliberately planned this episode; he did give away his possessions. He stood atop a table in the confined space of the Soldier Readiness Center shouting “Allahu Akhbar”, same chant as the 9-11 terrorists and those we fight against overseas in the Iraq and Afghanistan theaters of operation.
No one in leadership seems willing to sound the alarm for the American people; they are therefore complicit in any future attacks. Our Congress should suspend the insidious action to vote on a preposterous and unconstitutional healthcare bill and resolve the issue of “protecting the American people”.
The recent incidents in Dearborn Michigan, Boston Massachusetts, Dallas Texas, and Chicago Illinois should bear witness to the fact that we have an Islamic terrorism issue in America. And don’t have CAIR call me and try to issue a vanilla press statement; they are an illegitimate terrorist associated organization which should be disbanded.
So much for peaceful coexistence.

We must recognize that there is an urgent need to separate the theo-political radical Islamic ideology out of our American society. We must begin to demand surveillance of suspected Imams and mosques that are spreading hate and preaching the overthrow of our Constitutional Republic……that speech is not protected under First Amendment, it is sedition and if done by an American treason.
There should not be some 30 Islamic terrorist training camps in America that has nothing to do with First Amendment, Freedom of Religion.
When tolerance becomes a one way street it certainly leads to cultural suicide. We are on that street. Liberals cannot be trusted to defend our Republic, because their sympathies obviously lie with their perceived victim, Major Nidal Malik Hasan.
I make no apologies for these words, and anyone angered by them, please, go to Ft Hood and look into the eyes of the real victims. The tragedy at Ft Hood Texas did not have to happen. Consider now the feelings of those there and on every military installation in the world. Consider the feelings of the Warriors deployed into combat zones who now are concerned that their loved ones at home are in a combat zone.
Ft Hood suffered an Islamic jihadist attack, stop the denial, and realize a simple point.
The reality of your enemy must become your own. http://allenwestforcongress.com/about/

Nov 6 2009 The Fort Hood Massacre and Poor, Sad, Mistreated Major Hasan
I am so disgusted at the media's global search for apologists and pro-Muslim (your editor has fought alongside good Muslims – who treated me as a “Brother of the Book”), breast beaters on behalf of this who are claiming:
Major Hasan was a victim of the “Army command structure.”
Major Hasan was forced to live in a run-down, $325/month apartment, where fellow soldiers ridiculed him.
Major Hasan should have been allowed to resign when he figured out that he would be deployed.
Major Hasan would be forced into a war where he would have to kill his "brothers."
Major Hasan was so poor that he had to press his own clothing and forced to drive a "beater."
Let's set the record straight and tell the story correctly...but not politically correctly, (for that is certainly an oxymoron!). The data is on the net and/or is known to any recruit who has been in the Army more than five minutes.
The command structure is not broken, nor did it single out Major Hasan for deployment...Gee, rumor has it that there is a war on!
Major Hasan was provided $1,128.60 monthly, TAX FREE, to live off-post, plus an additional $234.04 monthly, TAX FREE, for food and sundries after we deduct the $325 a month for rent. What is he doing with the $800 plus a month that he is pocketed….Bought guns obviously! Perhaps he sent it to his radical terrorists buddies!
The soldiers who have to live in $325/month apartments are married enlisted at the lowest end of the pay scale...who, historically, have ridiculed officers since Darius the Great marched on Sparta. So, the better question is, "What was a middle grade officer doing there?" Hmmmm. Still bet it show up that he was sending the extra $800 to his radical Muslim buddies?
Resign? That's rich. He just got a $350,000 medical education for FREE that he completed in 2008, and was paid over $70,000 annually while enjoying college life and residency program. Now, he figures out that he will be deployed in 2009 and wants to walk away?
Psychiatrists don’t go into combat. They never get shot at (unless they are at Fort Hood) or shoot a gun. Where is this "killing his brothers" garbage coming from? Life does not get safer or more comfortable in a combat zone than being a shrink.
He is a Major (I was a Major once – who the hell promoted this scumbag?). TODAY, Hasan is still being paid $115,537 annually, of which $13,300 is tax-free. Poor? Driving a beater? Irons his own clothes? The average first year doctor with crushing student loans would drool at his salary. Let’s hope after the latest round of FBI screw-ups (911 pilot training remember?) they have at least stopped his military pay from going to terrorist bank accounts.
This human flotsam on the sea of life is a poor doctor, hypocrite, liar, thug, killer, terrorist and jihad zealot and taxpayer thief for his high-class education. Many other veterans want our taxpayer money back in pounds of flesh – his….distributed in separate locations!
The only sad thing for Hasan is that the incredibly brave woman cop who brought him down wasn’t able to get in a head shot (would have been hard since she took three bullets). Why is Hasan sad? He didn’t get to be a martyr and be greeted by 22 virgins!
This is also why he is being HEAVILY tripled guarded at Brooke Army Medical – Fort Sam Houston. Not that he is dangerous. There are about 10,000 medics on Fort Sam who would like to help him on his way to hell, where he would find no virgins. OH…. And don’t forget the 80,000 or so military retirees in San Antonio. Plus, the Air Force personnel from Lackland Air Force base who would rush across town to help in the shredding. Oh yes, and the Navy Reserves that would come over to sink the remnants of the shredding. The 100,000 Veterans or so in San Antonio would line up to cheer!
THE WOMAN SHOOTER - OUR SIDE!
FINDS THE RADICAL SHOOTER HASAN
Proves that America has not lost the "magic touch" of reaching out to communicate with violent opponents of Democracy and Human Rights.
ESPECIALLY ONES THAT HATE WOMEN!!!
