Nidal Malik Hasan’s Family In Ramallah Say Mass Murderer Is A Victim

MAJOR Nidal Malik Hasan is not a terrorist. As we have seen there are ten reasons why the man murdered 13 people in Fort Hood, Texas. And not once – not once – does our round-up suggest that he is a terrorist.

Nancy Gibbs, in Time magazine – “The Fort Hood Killer: Terrified … or Terrorist?” – can stop trying to work it out.

We know Hasan is the victim because we are told he is:

A close relative spoke to Sky News in the West Bank town of Ramallah on condition of anonymity, afraid of reprisals against his family in America.

Fort Hood Shootings Latest News: US Soldier Nidal Hasan Shoots 13 Dead

IN the Soldier Readiness Centre Fort Hood, Texas, 13 are shot dead and 31 are wounded. Nidal Hasan is captured. The news:

At least eight people have been shot in an Orlando, Florida, high-rise office building, CNN affiliates report.

As Chelsy say: “Here we go, now we will be getting a rash of shootings”

Woman saves: Kim Munley, a civilian police officer, is the woman who brought Hasan down by shooting him four times before he could murder more.

Woman killed: Chicago – FOX Chicago News has learned that a 21-year-old pregnant woman from the Northwest Side of Chicago was killed in the Fort Hood shooting spree Thursday.

Francheska Velez, a 2006 graduate of Kelvyn Park, recently had returned from a tour of duty in Iraq.

Reader Cheryl writes: The military/government over here never stops with its deceiving and coverups.  Six and a half hours they let the press and hence the public believe the shooter was dead!  You two know how reporters would think and react when deliberately led to believe and write wrong information and made look the fools six and a half hours later.  Guess the Government and military officials needed those 6  1/2 hours to get their stories straight about what was known or not known about the Major!  Now the CNN news is talking about the Major was on the ‘radar’ to be watched over the last months for some blogs or other stuff he had written about suicide bombing, his intense dislike for the Iraqi War, he wasn’t going over, etc, etc. etc.  CNN with Larry King and Anderson Cooper are far from happy being deceived.

Tim Blair: The evasiveness of media in the immediate wake of the Fort Hood murders is astonishing. The ABC’s Lisa Millar opened her midday report claiming to have “learned quite a lot about the gunman”, then revealed very little of it – apart from that Malik Nadal Hasan had “attracted a lot of harassment because of his last name” and “family background”. This came about, Millar reported, despite Hasan being born and raised in the US. Not mentioned in eight minutes of coverage: Hasan’s faith, which in a case like this is surely of interest.
