Muslim Veterans Group Says No Reports of Harassment of Islamic Soldiers
2009-11-07
A Muslim veteran affairs organization says it has not received reports of harassment from Islamic soldiers, contrary to claims by a relative of the man authorities say is responsible for the worst mass killing on a U.S. military base.

Abdul-Rashid Abdullah, deputy director of the American Muslim Armed Forces and Veterans Affairs Council, told FoxNews.com that the nonprofit group has not received a single report recently of a U.S. soldier being harassed "simply because he was Muslim."
The MSM has its preferred narrative, however. Can't let the facts get in the way of a good narrative.

#9  You might also want to look into your 'Veterans' group and see just who it is you think is so swell.

#8  The shithole Hasan defended by word was NOT the United States of America. But yeah, I'm sure many thought he 'appeared to be exactly what we wanted him to be'.

MONITOR them NOW!

#7  That would be America, Woozle Uneter9007. They are veterans of the United States Armed Forces.

#6  Put every single one in that 'Muslim Vets Group' under surveillance. Find out what mosques they attend, what's being preached at those mosques, who they fraternize with. One false move and kick their sorry asses back to the shitholes they defend.

#5  I should like to point out that the Muslim Veterans group appears to be exactly what we want them to be, in strong contrast to the man whose claims they contradict so quickly and publicly.

#3  There's a report by a UK source that Hasan attended the same mosque as the 9/11 hijackers. So IF (and I highly doubt it) 'disparaging' remarks were ever made within his earshot, they probably had good reason.

#2  My guess is that harassment OF Muslim soldiers BY soldiers is rare (rarer still of Muslim officers) - but I would not be at all surprised if disparaging comments about Muslims (even non-terrorist Muslims) occured in the presence of Hasan and he took it personally.

#1  Even IF hw was "picked on" that does not excuse his RANDOM killings.
