Casino67 Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Chron.com:An exhaustive inquiry by the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Government Affairs has concluded that the Fort Hood massacre allegedly carried out by Army Maj. Nidal Hasan could have — and should have - been prevented, a year-long report released Thursday shows.The Senate committee found the FBI and the Army failed to act on evidence "in plain sight" that the 40-year-old Army psychiatrist was communicating with radical Islamic cleric Anwar al-Awlaki in Yemen and becoming an increasingly radicalized Muslim during his medical training at Walter Reed Army Medical Center."The painful conclusion is that Fort Hood attack could have and should have been prevented," said Sen. Joe Lieberman, the Connecticut independent who chairs the Senate panel.The mass shooting on Nov. 5, 2009, killed 13 people and wounded 32 at a facility processing GIs preparing to deploy or returning from Afghanistan and Iraq.The FBI failed to tell the Army before the attack that Hasan had come to its attention because of his repeated email traffic with al-Awlaki, an American born Islamic cleric who has since been put on a shoot-on-sight list by President Obama.

PC is the biggest obstacle. I wonder if the FBI did inform the Army that he was communicating with a known radical, would PC have been unable to be overcome to do anything about it. I doubt it. PC rules and will rule until we are willing to stand up for the truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
