Creation of a new thread on the topic will be permitted, but if so, let's leave out religious speculation. Referencing news source reports of religious incidentals is okay, but speculating, making claims that the actions are a result of a particular religious belief, and "educating" us on religions will need to be addressed in the Underground.
It's time to back up, and start over.
Since Empath's closing of the previous thread left the door open to a more factual discussion, I believe there is enough evidence that has come forth in recent days to now call this a pre-meditated act of Islamic terrorism.
In particular this linked story from www.drudgereport.com to a Fox News story listing contents of a Powerpoint slide presentation that this Doctor of Terror gave while still at Walter Reed. Just reading the last few slides is enough, but his connection with the radical Iman from Virginia, now promoting such actions from his new location in Yemen is nearly conclusive.
The Powerpoint, entitled, "The Koranic World View As It Relates to Muslims in the U.S. Military," consisted of 50 slides, according to a copy obtained by the Post.
"It's getting harder and harder for Muslims in the service to morally justify being in a military that seems constantly engaged against fellow Muslims," Hasan said in the presentation.
Under a slide titled "Comments," he wrote: "If Muslim groups can convince Muslims that they are fighting for God against injustices of the 'infidels'; ie: enemies of Islam, then Muslims can become a potent adversary ie: suicide bombing, etc." [sic]
The last bullet point on that page reads simply: "We love death more then [sic] you love life!"
On the final slide, labeled "Recommendation," Hasan wrote: "Department of Defense should allow Muslims [sic] Soldiers the option of being released as 'Conscientious objectors' to increase troop morale and decrease adverse events."
An Army spokesman told the Post Monday night he was unaware of the presentation, and a Walter Reed spokesman declined comment.
IMHO, each of those supervisors, co-workers, and other Government officials who knew of his connections, statements, and actions also have blood on their hands.
