Fort Hood tears down site of 2009 'workplace violence' massacre
2014-02-19
[Jihad Watch] "For the building in which this horrific event took place just to be wiped off the map before we have a say in what's done with it seems like another slap in the face." Platoni is right: this is just another manifestation of the all-pervasive denial of the reality of jihad. They are pretending this jihad attack did not happen.

Instead of acknowledging the murders realistically and redoubling our determination to resist jihad, U.S. officials have consistently dissembled and pretended that Nidal Hasan had motives other than the ones he repeatedly stated. And one thing is certain: whatever memorial is constructed there will say nothing whatsoever about why Hasan murdered these people -- as if a Pearl Harbor memorial said, "Random airplane pilots spontaneously and for no discernible reason decided to attack Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941."
It is indeed interesting that the building which was the scene of the crime, and undoubtedly a key piece of evidence, is being demolished while mandatory appeals [which may last for many years] remain ongoing.

#4  Most irritating person, this Kathy Platoni...
Must she propagate nonsense about a jihadi?
Allah's all peace and love, mercy, kindness and bliss --
All his pious adherents wanna give you a kiss!
Lousy deeds perpetrated by Doctor Nidal
Lead ignorant haters to propose a cabal,
Singing tunes they receive via tin-foil antenna,
Seeing anything reddish as colored by henna.
Intolerance rash we must salve with a balm
I balm, you balm, we all balm for Islam!

#1  Put the shoe on the other foot, if the site were a mosque it would become, after a $5M incentive (shovel ready)from Uncle Sugar, another "Holy Site."
