So He was taken out by a diminutive Woman.
Will probably (hopefully) sit till the end of his days in a corner at supermax or some similar joint, wondering what his right hand and nudie bars are for.
Will not get to enjoy 72 buxom women, and will have probably forgot what Mr. happy is for by the time he does die.
I will send a Playboy when he gets settled.

P.S. The cartoon in the link is priceless.

He apparently didn’t get the memo that ‘not jumping to conclusions’ is a piece of cake and is well suited to multitasking.

The Dallas Morning News (via Hot Air) reports that Malik Nidal Hasan may have wired money to Pakistan…

This is the same approach being used by many in the MSM. What possible motives could there be for taking this approach repeatedly?

But why does this need to be terrorism when Columbine and Virginia Tech were not?

Could your point be more easily distinguished from those other events when you consider who was the target of Hasan’s pre-meditated atrocity, combined with his Power Point presentation, statements, and emails?

I can already see it.

Hasan was sending money to pakistan due to an “email” that said if you send me this amount every month I can make you rich.

blah.

Somebody from Bermuda keeps sending me spam emails like that. Do you think that she is a Uigar?

he Unborn Victims of Violence Act of 2004 (Public Law 108-212) is a United States law which recognizes a “child in utero” as a legal victim, if he or she is injured or killed during the commission of any of over 60 listed federal crimes of violence. The law defines “child in utero” as “a member of the species Homo sapiens, at any stage of development, who is carried in the womb.”[2]

The law is codified in two sections of the United States Code: Title 18, Chapter 1 (Crimes), §1841 (18 USC 1841) and Title 10, Chapter 22 (Uniform Code of Military Justice) §919a (Article 119a).

The law applies only to certain offenses over which the United States government has jurisdiction, including certain crimes committed on Federal properties, against certain Federal officials and employees, and by members of the military. In addition, it covers certain crimes thatrs are defined by statute as federal offenses wherever they occur, no matter who commits them, such as certain crimes of terrorism.

14 Murder Victims NOT 13

He’s getting more photo coverage in the media than Michael Jackson.

Why not run a photo of one of his victims every time a photo is needed? Stop mentioning his name – more people now know the killer’s name than the name of any of the people he murdered.

How about headlines like: “The trial of the guy who killed (this person) will start soon”. Or “They wacko who murdered (this other person) was executed today”.

THOSE headlines, I’d look forward to seeing!

We haven’t learned at all.

As former FBI chief Louis Freeh stated in 2005 about the botched 9/11 commission:

Yet this is also a good time for the country to make some assessments of the 9/11 Commission itself. Recent revelations from the military intelligence operation code-named “Able Danger” have cast light on a missed opportunity that could have potentially prevented 9/11. Specifically, Able Danger concluded in February 2000 that military experts had identified Mohamed Atta by name (and maybe photograph) as an al Qaeda agent operating in the U.S. Subsequently, military officers assigned to Able Danger were prevented from sharing this critical information with FBI agents, even though appointments had been made to do so. Why?

Much remains unknown about the 39-year-old Hasan, born in Virginia to Palestinian immigrants. He lived alone near the Army base in Killeen, Texas, and would sometimes use a neighbor’s computer even though he had his own.

Lots of radical Muslims in Virginia, often called the Wahhabi Corridor.

I hope this computer has been seized.

It would also force the government to consider this a planned terrorist attack, which they have been reluctant so far to conclude.

Yes, but would they have the same reservations about jumping to conclusions if it were a white guy that walked into Columbia university and yelled, “the south shall rise again” and started biatch slapping college students? No, he’d be an extremist and conclusions would be reached by the end of the day.

Deport them all.

The entire situation is geared so that if we don’t, we lose.

They have laws giving them special protections, they don’t assimilate, they don’t speak out against terrorism but sit idlely and cowardly waiting to see who prevails

get them out of here and send them back to the stys they come from and they can show us then how superior their ideals are in a practical manner

truth is we don’t need anything that they have while they need everything that we do have

all the oil wealth I’m the world and they don’t make cars, planes, nothing more complicated than a rug

instead we have the libs foist these dependents on us because they know it will eventually crush our system of liberty

the left loves inferiors to use as roadbase

Oh great…heads should roll for this.

There will no doubt be some infidel heads rolling on video as a result of this. Performed by good Muslims of Islam.

Meanwhile, Hasan — a well-paid medical professional — lived a lifestyle of near-poverty despite living by himself. And no one in the intelligence community thought this required further investigation?

Ed, you know the question: Has X shown any unexplained affluence?

In other words, they always look for unexplained wealth, not pauperism. They’re looking for the yacht, the fancy car, the big house. They are not looking for a person renting an apartment and socking all their wealth away in savings.

And, if you remember, in the security questionaire, you do not reveal your banking accounts, but you do reveal your credit reports from the Big 3, and any garnisheed wages, large debts, etc.

Maybe all that will change now, and the Government will begin viewing our finances as a collection of sources and sinks.

If the reports are true that he didn’t want to be deployed, and to some extent targeted people who had been involved in his deployment orders, that sounds like retaliation against government conduct to me.

Sorry I missed this before.

The key word here is the first one: “if”. As I’ve said, I’m open-minded about the possibility that this is terrorism if it turns out that his motives were terrorist motives. Thus far, it’s tea-leaf-reading to try to guess his motives. So it’s foolish to assume that it definitely is (or is not) terrorism.

The cross incident is significant. It is another crime in which Islam is used to violently attack Christianity or infidels. In this case Christianity because the target was the cross around a guy’s neck.
The other funny about this story is that the family said that the guy had just arrived in this country and didn’t know the laws but others said he’d been working at the mall for a long time.
It goes back to the lies being told are justifiable to Islamics because everything is justifiable in the the spread of Islam.
Crazy huh? Those Mormons at my door never seemed to use these tactics.
