| #18 At least 2 Congressional Medal of Honor winners have been conscientious objectors, so that argument is invalid. |

| #17 From #14: victim of denial of freedom of conscientious objection to the Asian wars From what I understand, a conscientious objector must object to ALL wars - he doesn't get to pick and choose. Besides which, Hasan was a doctor, which makes him a noncombatant. Several conscientious objectors served honorably as Corpsmen. |

| #16 The Assassins were Ismailis. That group is treated as moderate these days. It may have something to do with the Mongols nearly annihilating them. "The Mongols made first for the Elburz Mountains, where the Assassins lay in wait behind what they believed to be their impregnable fortresses. With extraordinary ingenuity the Mongol generals and their Chinese engineers manoeuvred their artillery up the mountain slopes and set them up around the walls of the fortress of Alamut. But before the order was given to commence firing the Assassins' Grand Master, Rukn ad-Din, signalled that he wanted to negotiate. Hulegu countered that he must immediately order the destruction of his own fortifications; when Rukn ad-Din prevaricated, the bombardment commenced. Under the most devastatingly accurate artillery fire, the walls quickly tumbled and Rukn ad-Din surrendered. Hulegu took him prisoner, transported him to every Assassin castle they confronted, and paraded him before each garrison with the demand for an immediate surrender. Some obliged, as at Alamut; while others, like Gerdkuh, had to be taken by force. Today the spherical stone missiles fired by the artillery teams at the walls still litter the perimeter of the ruins. Whether each 'eagle's nest' surrendered or was taken, the Mongols put all the inhabitants to the sword; even the women in their homes and the babies in their cradles. As this slaughter continued, Rukn ad-Din begged Hulegu to allow him to go to Qaraqorum where he would pay homage to the Great Khan and plead for clemency. Hulegu agreed, but when he got to Qaragorum Mongke Khan refused to see him. It was effectively a sentence of death. On the journey back his Mongol escort turned on the Grand Master and his attendants, who were 'kicked to a pulp' . The Persian historian Juvaini commented that 'tine world has been cleansed'. Five hundred years later Edward Gibbon echoed those sentiments, claiming that the Mongols' campaign 'may be considered as a service to mankind'. It took two years for the Mongols to dislodge over 100 'eagles' nests', but in the process they virtually expunged the Assassins from Persia." - Storm from the East: From Genghis Khan to Khubilai Khan ^ | 1993 | Robert Marshall |

| #15 I'm sure such a movie is already being discussed at the parties of Hollywood. It'll make him out to be a victim of 'racist rednecks' (Texas) and intolerant Christians who are the _real_ perps here. And it'll be advertised as 'True story'. Islam is the only major religion which practices Human Sacrifices. |

| #14 The Assassins were Ismailis. That group is treated as moderate these days. We need to learn from history: when muslims have the power, their aggression rises exponentially. Islam is the mad-dog of religions. Imagine if you had to write a movie of the Fort Hood jihad-massacre, based only on the dhimmi editorials from the print media. You would have to color the Murderer with tints of: maltreatment by the misunderstanders of islam; victim of denial of freedom of conscientious objection to the Asian wars; non-representative of the majority of peaceful muslims; etc ad nauseum. The scumbag Murdered for the fake muslim deity. He didn't declare "allah akhbar" to clear his throat. Hold a lottery for the privilege of sending this wild animal to hell; it would make millions. |

| #12 Probably had a personality like a cross between a porcupine and a skunk. Old Patriot, with Hasan, this is more likely to be the problem. |

| #11 Let's get him well enough for us to shoot him for treason. I've known a couple of people like Maj Hasan - ok at their job, but totally screwed up outside of it. Probably had a personality like a cross between a porcupine and a skunk. |

| #10 Maybe we should just bug the strip clubs and forget about the mosques? |

| #9 This was on ABC. U.S. intelligence agencies were aware months ago that Army Major Nidal Hasan was attempting to make contact with people associated with al Qaeda, two American officials briefed on classified material in the case told ABC News. |

| #8 The present day descendants of the Nazari, under the leadership of the Agha Khan, are the only branch of Islam IMHO who can be trusted to not act like barbarians. |

| #7 That explains where a large part of his salary as a Major may have went to. |

| #6 The term 'Assassin' derives from the Arabic word Hashshashin ..., literally "takers of hashish", more commonly called The Order of the Assassins. Their actual name is Nizari. They were active in the costal mountains of the Levant, then moved to Alamut by the Caspian Sea from the eighth to the fourteenth centuries. This group killed members of the Abbasid and Seljuq élite for political and religious reasons, but mostly targeted the Sunni Muslims. - wiki Lap dances are generally legal. Hashish is a controlled substance. The popular story is that the grand masters of the cult used drugs and sex to control their agents, sort of a preview of what paradise awaits the assassin for carrying out the bidding of the masters. |

| #4 It's part of the ritual wherein "Allah prepares them for victory". I read that part of his troubles was also alcoholism, but that he'd gotten a handle on that. |

| #3 The guy was looking for a wife apparently. Maybe he was too creepy or something. These idiots firmly believe in the idea that no matter how badly they behave as muslims, they get to totally short-circuit any judgment process and go straight to the heavenly hall-of-fame if they do the jihad thing. So what's to stop them from being naughty on this side? N-O-T-H-I-N-G. It seems to me to be a conflicted side-effect of the jihad concept which is about the only thing that keeps the imams in business these days. That, or they feel guilty about their behavior and think "Well, I might as well do the Jihad thing, because there is no other way for me to get to heaven." Probably some of both. |
