Computer of Suspected Fort Hood Gunman Seized, Family Calls Rampage 'Despicable' Friday , November 06, 2009 FBI agents seized the computer Friday of the Army psychiatrist suspected of a horrific massacre at Fort Hood in Texas, as the family of Major Nidal Malik Hasan called the crime he is accused of "despicable and deplorable." It was not immediately known if FBI agents found anything suspicious on Hasan's computer files that might explain the rampage that killed 13 and wounded 30, including the gunman. A military official said investigators also are sifting through materials Hasan, 39, carried with him during the massacre and evidence left in his vehicle, which was found parked at the base. Authorities searched his apartment early Friday for clues but haven't yet been able to talk to Hasan, who survived the shootings and was hospitalized on a ventilator. He was due to be deployed any day to the war zone in Afghanistan, Army officials said. Survivors of the rampage said the suspect shouted "Allahu Akbar!" — "God is great!" in Arabic — before opening fire, according to Fort Hood base commander Lt. Gen. Robert Cone. Cone said officials had not yet confirmed that Hasan made the comment. Military officials were piecing together what pushed a man who helped troubled soldiers to turn on his comrades. The Army wouldn't discuss a motive in an early-morning press conference, but initial reports suggested he feared his imminent deployment to Afghanistan and had been critical of the wars there and in Iraq. "He was mortified by the idea of having to deploy,” Hasan's cousin Nader Hasan told The New York Times. “He had people telling him on a daily basis the horrors they saw over there.” Thursday's massacre was the worst mass killing ever to take place on a U.S. military base. A female civilian police officer identified as Kim Munley who shot Hasan was the one credited with stopping the spree. She survived, contrary to earlier reports that she had died, and was in stable condition. "It was an amazing and an aggressive performance by this police officer," Cone said. for the complete article click here:  Rampage_______________________________________________________________________________________________________

xray: 'Survivors of the rampage said the suspect, US Army Major Nidal Malik Hasan, shouted "Allahu Akbar!" — "God is great!" in Arabic — before opening fire...,' should give us all an idea of why the follower of Mohammed opened fire on US troops at Fort Hood, TX. Isn't diversity wonderful? RO |

This guy was born in the U.S. (as I understand it), and to me this is disturbing. How do we protect ourselves from this sort of thing?
