Some Thoughts On Fort Hood From SDA

November 7, 2009

Secretary Of Homeland Speculation

Now is the time at SDA when we juxtapose!

April, 2009 - “The report is not saying that veterans are extremists. Far from it,” Napolitano said on CNN’s State of the Union. “What it is saying is returning veterans are targets of right-wing extremist groups that are trying to recruit those to commit violent acts within the country. We want to do all we can to prevent that.”

November, 2009 - Napolitano said: "The investigation into the shootings has began and it would be inappropriate to speculate on the causes of this terrible crime, so let me not comment any further as the investigation is ongoing." While she was in Brussels, reports out of the US suggested that the suspect in the killing of at least 13 people at the Fort Hood base shouted "Allah Akbar" (God is great) before opening fire."

No doubt that had this been an evangelical Christian shooting up an abortion clinic reciting passages from the Bible, MSM would be all over that angle, unlike the post traumatic stress, he was picked on, just a crazy man with a gun, angle to this story they've been playing up. "This has nothing to do with Islam", is the reinforced message. When the facts are established, they'll just blame the west, Israel etc.

Excellent juxtaposition Kate. I had forgotten about Ms. Napolitanos demonization of "right wing" military types.

This isn't a domestic "man-caused disaster"! It's an isolated incident by someone with second-hand PTSD! /sarc

Meanwhile over at atlasshrugs2000, Pamela Geller has a photo of the majors business card. It shows "SoA (SWT)" on the card. That is Soldiers of Allah. The SWT is usually added anytime the word Allah is used.

To quote a famous appeal, "Can't we all just get along" (according to union and leftist definitions)?

Expect the multicultural bozos to paint this fruitcake as a victim.

"After listening to hour after hour of horror stories from Iran and Iraq, he just went over the edge."

The most shocking fact to emerge from this sad story is that soldiers stationed at Fort Hood are not allowed to carry firearms.

Good grief.

"Diversity"! Imagine how the college that took this 'Obamination' and made him a psychiatrist wet their pants when they recruited him. Imagine the grins on the faces of the Army recruiters as they eagerly filled their various quotas with this turkey.

The man was supposedly a full blown professional psychiatrist. What does this say about medical 'professionals' in general, particularly with regards to their standards and peer review? Nobody's much talking about that. Not on the eve of the AMA's fantastic, mind blowing coup.
