Major Muslim Hasan's Six Figure Paycheck: Zakat to Pakistan?

Did you see Hasan's barebones $325 a month pathetic apartment? It made you wonder where he sent his close to six figure salary. What Islamic charity was the lucky recipient?

They'll keep telling you how mentally ill he was. I expect an islamic slapdown for that......the inference is that Islam is a mental illness. And when they mention jihad, they say he acted alone. Yeah, ok. Meanwhile, he's got contacts in Pakistan, Al Qaeda, violent imams ...........

BTW, ABC news picked up my story on Hasan's jihad calling card and ran it as their own, and O'Reilly gave ABC props for it without crediting Atlas. What creeps. We had to drag, embarrass, and shame the dinosaur media into calling this act of war what it was. And FOX was just as bad as the rest with "vicarious" post traumatic stress syndrome. That was the FOX meme on Saturday.

Fort Hood shootings suspect may have wired money to Pakistan Dallas Morning News

WASHINGTON – Authorities have been examining whether Fort Hood massacre suspect Nidal Malik Hasan wired money to Pakistan in recent months, an action that one senior lawmaker said would raise serious questions about Hasan's possible connections to militant Islamic groups.

Rep. Pete Hoekstra, R-Mich., said sources "outside of the [intelligence] community" learned about Hasan's possible connections to the Asian country, which faces a massive Islamist insurgency and is widely believed to be Osama bin Laden's hiding place.

Hoekstra, the ranking Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, would not identify the sources. But he said "they are trying to follow up on it because they recognize that if there are communications – phone or money transfers with somebody in Pakistan – it just raises a whole other level of questions."

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.

"With what I know about Hasan to date ... I would expect we will learn more about him that will make us concerned," Hoekstra said, "rather than information that says, 'Oh man, we got that all wrong and this had nothing to do with terrorism.' "

Mystery of money

Hasan's finances have been a mystery since last week, when the Army major and psychiatrist allegedly shot and killed 13 colleagues at the sprawling Central Texas military base. Hasan earned more than $90,000 a year and had no dependents, yet lived in an aging one-bedroom apartment that rented for about $300 a month.

"You can bet there is an ongoing, extensive investigation into every single financial transaction he made," said Matt Orwig, a former U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Texas who has no direct knowledge of the Hasan case. "Federal investigative agencies are very good at tracing the flow of money, both to him and from him."

Authorities know that Hasan sent repeated e-mails, starting some time in December 2008, to a radical Muslim cleric in Yemen. That cleric, Anwar al-Awlaki, formerly served as imam of a large northern Virginia mosque where Hasan worshipped. The U.S.-born cleric praised Hasan after the massacre as "a hero."

In January, al-Awlaki told readers of his blog about "44 ways to support jihad" – a term often translated as "holy war." Many of his points dealt with ways to fund such efforts.

"Probably the most important contribution the Muslims of the West could do for Jihad is making Jihad with their wealth," al-Awlaki wrote. "In many cases the mujahideen are in need of money more than they are in need of men."

He also stressed the importance of "avoiding the life of luxury."

A spokesman for the U.S. Justice Department referred questions Wednesday to the FBI, which didn't return a message seeking comment. FBI officials have said they studied Hasan's communications with an unnamed radical Muslim and concluded they were a harmless part of his academic research.

Hoekstra said he wants to know whether authorities knew about Hasan's behavior when they decided his contacts with the Yemeni imam were essentially harmless.

"The conclusion based off just the e-mails might have been perfectly legitimate," Hoekstra said. "But if the [terrorism] analyst for some reason didn't have access to all this other information, that might be where the problem is."

Pamela -

His Apartment Looks like mine did in 1996/7. More or less a place to "Crash" I was ahead of him in electronics, behind him in paper shredders. My situation was a lack of money. What was his excuse?
Maj. Hasan made $90 Large before taxes as an MD and Psychiatrist. He Paid +/- $400/mo. for his apartment.
I paid between $6-700 for my place back then - +/- 13 years ago (bar/bat mitzvah?).
Trust me, at the 1996/7 equivalent of 2009 - $90,000.00 - I would have lived like a "Melech" at Twice His Rent.
Major Hasan was doing a LOT of ZAKAT. The question IS - TO WHERE - and - TO WHOM. That is all. -S-

Pamela - This is the place to be an they know it. They probably have people assigned to watch your site. That is their form of investigative journalism these day - budget style...

They probably think "Damn -she's so sexy and she's always right...We don't know how to rectify that - Sexy, Beautiful and smartest one out there...One of these days we HAVE to get some information before she does - we just have to!"

And I'm straight - thank you very much - I'm just "channeling" those guys for you. I think it bugs them no end to credit you.

Oh well - you are doing a FANTASTIC job! I would say eliminate the most vulgar words and you'll get more references. One personal favorite that I would like to see go is "A.H." On the other hand - you are so worth it! Peppery - and full of great info. But I stopped linking to you because of that...Maybe there are others.

But I love you either way - maybe it is the pepper in you that keep you on fire for freedom. So tat is why I never mentioned it before. We certainly don't want you to turn plain vanilla!

BTW have any of you heard about that disgusting blowhard chris matthews who the other night said in response to hassan having contacted al qaeda said "what's wrong with that"?

Pamela -

Revise and Extend - When I had my place like Maj. Hasan's, I accommodated people from where I worked - almost like a dormitory - for those who had less than I did. Sure they slept on the floor, WITH A ROOF and HEAT/A/C as required. I charged - NOTHING - Mine were the "Tents of Jacob." Let us NOT even call this tza'dakah. All who came in were issued one (1) Rule - Thou Shall Not Steal (From Me). The Rule was adhered to, were it NOT, I was BIG ENOUGH/TOUGH ENOUGH to enforce it, I Must Admit. Maj. Hasan lived on MORE than twice my income at HALF the rent in numeric dollars. He HAD MONEY, HE SENT IT SOMEWHERE - IF to his Family in "WestBankia" may Ha-Shem bless him. If NOT.... That is all. -S-

marylouise -

By George 41 and George 43 - I Think you've GOT IT. "What Is Wrong With That?" - Chris Screwball - LET ME COUNT THE WAYS! Chris, we are BOTH admirers of Walter Mondale. A GOOD MAN at his essence. Like former VP Cheney. Difference is, Walter Mondale had a hard time recognizing enemies on the left, as Hubert Humphrey, his mentor, DID NOT. That is all and Enough for NOW. -S-

[Laura Liebman]

That was mine not Marylouise's comment.

[PersonOfTheBook]

Pam, if ABC is picking up your story without crediting you, at least they're finally telling the truth about Major Muslim.

[PersonOfTheBook]

Pam, I'm with MaryLouise. All you need to do is be more discrete with some of your language, and put some clothes on the statue, and you'll get a HUGE following among the Evangelical Christians.

Use abbreviations. Everyone will know what you are saying, and the parents won't be afraid to let their kids read your postings.

I'm saying this as a friend and a great admirer, Pam.

OK Everyone -

Let Us GET to the "Burlap" - "The So-Called PAKISTAN" IS - The Most Dangerous So-Called "Nation" on the Face of the Earth Today - FULL STOP! Moreso than the "So-Called IRAN" - "P" has the BOMB, "I" does not as Yet. BOTH - ARE - ISLAMST, REVANCHANIST "Nations." - BOTH - WILL go to war - FOR ISLAM - For Nothing More - AND - NOTHING LESS - see: "The MUJAHHADEEM" For what it is worth, the majority population of Pakistan, outside the tribal areas, is ethnically very close, if NOT identical with their Indian Neighbors. Remember that. The So-Called "Iran" IS PERSIA! - PERSIA is PRE-ISLAM, an OLD, creative, talented society. For what it is worth - a POLICY that makes PERSIA - PERSIA, and "PAKISTAN" - INDIAN PROVINCES, with Muslim Majorities would be the BEST Policy for the Civilized World. YES! - I SAID IT - I AM PROUD FOR DOING SO - I SHALL NOT TAKE IT BACK. Get the ARMIES of BOTH So-Called "Nations" behind it - In the Old Fashioned Way - PLUNDER - of their "presumed" Islamic Religious "Betters" and - SO IT WOULD HAPPEN. The World would be the BETTER for this for at least the NEXT 200 Years. That is all. -S-

Pamela - Re: Sarah 2012

Thought I Voted for Sarah in 2008. Sarah allowed me to take my "clothespin" off of my nose when I voted for Sen. McCain. I KNOW what she did in Alaska. I would vote for her for ANY office she chose to run for - from Dogcatcher to President. Sarah Palin is REAL, she is scary to the Politically Correct, She is FAR from stupid.
Sarah reminds me of my Mother - Smart, Strong, and Proud of who she was and where she came from. My Late Mother would have voted for her for President of her HADASSAH Chapter if Gentiles could have run. That is all.

[Laura Liebman]

I don't think Pam should tone down her language at all.

[Urban Infidel]

I saw the business card story on FOX and thought...'Hmmmm... Where have I seen this before..??'

Pam, you are the BOMB! /in the nicest way of course! :)

[James]

Barack Hussien Obama SoA (SWT) this is how I intend to refer to the annointed one from now on.

Maybe someone can print T-Shirt with this on it?

I bet they would sell like hot cakes.

[FredM]

So besides getting charged with murder, where are the terror related charges that come along with dealing and planning terrorism?
