Major Screwup

Meet the idiot, er... sociopath... who just put an impossible burden on every (no matter how loyal, or patriotic) Arab-American or Muslim... currently serving in the United States Armed Forces...
Authorities initially said they killed the major after he took part in a shooting rampage that left about a dozen colleagues dead at the Central Texas base. Tonight, inexplicably, they are saying that Hasan was wounded but survived.

Hasan worked at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in the nation's capital for six years before being transferred to Texas in July. He was going to be sent into a combat zone overseas soon and didn't want to go, relatives and others said.
So, apparently... he decided to murder his brothers-in-arms instead.

Despite initial reports that he had been killed, Hasan is recovering in hospital.
The commander of the Fort Hood Lt. Gen. Bob Cone told NBC's TODAY on Friday that Hasan was in a "stable condition." He said he would be interrogated as soon as possible.

Cone also said he heard first-hand accounts that Hassan shouted "Allah Akbar," which means "God is Great" in Arabic, as he opened fire at the Soldier Readiness Center at Fort Hood.

LAST WORD: Jihadi brought to a shuddering stop...

...by a frail, inferior chattel...
FORT HOOD, Texas — The top commander at Fort Hood is crediting a civilian police officer for stopping the shooting rampage that killed 13 people at the Texas post.

Lt. Gen. Bob Cone said Friday that Fort Hood police Sgt. Kimberly Munley and her partner responded within three minutes of reported gunfire Thursday afternoon. Cone said Munley shot the gunman four times despite being shot herself.

Officials said Munley was in stable condition.
