Today's New York Post took a look at some of the background of Major Nidal Malik Hasan, the Army doctor who began shooting people at Fort Hood. The Washington Examiner also has an article on the history of Major Hasan.
The Washington Examiner reports:
"Hasan reportedly shouted "Allahu Akbar!" before the killings, wrote Internet postings justifying Muslim suicide bombings, considered U.S. forces the enemy, and opposed American involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan as wars on Islam. His rampage at Ft. Hood has the markings of an act of Islamic terrorism."
I realize that a majority of Muslims who live in America are law abiding, peaceful, productive people, but unfortunately, there are some Muslims who have a more radical nature.
Before being transferred to Fort Hood, Major Hasan attended the Muslim Community Center in Silver Spring, Maryland. The New York Post reports that Imam Faizul Khanis, who has been the main prayer leader there for a long time, is a friend of Hasan.
The New York Post reports that the Imam Faizul Khan:
"...is a leading board member of the Islamic Society of North America -- the main Wahhabi-lobby group in the United States, established by Saudi Arabia to impose extremism on American Muslims. ISNA has a long and disgraceful record of promoting radical Islam."
The New York Post also reports on some other connections of that mosque. It seems as if there were some things in this man's record that should have been a concern to his chain of command.
