Pentagon Looked into Major Muslim Hasan: "concluded he did not merit further investigation"

The left wing asshat constituency in this country had no trouble concocting wild tales of impossible insanity, accusing Bush of being behind 911 (truthers) despite Osama Bin Laden and the ummah's pride in their stealth attack on NY, Washington and Pennsylvania on September 11th.

Here you have real complicity, real dereliction, real guilt on the part of the FBI, Pentagon. Heads should roll (and no, not in the literal Islamic sense).

They knew. They knew he was a jihadi. They knew for a long time. They knew before he bought his guns. And yet they let this time bomb loose in the bosom of America's most strategic home fortress. Every devout Muslim is a soldier of allah. Every devout Muslim is a threat to this nation. This is not rocket science. This is objective reality.

This is the result of infiltration at the highest levels. We need a purge and we need it now.

AP Reports: "AP Sources: Defense Dept worker looked into Hasan"
-- additional link (hat tip world of terror)

"WASHINGTON – U.S. officials say a Pentagon worker on a terrorism task force looked into Fort Hood shooting suspect Nidal Hasan's background months ago, and concluded he did not merit further investigation."

"Two officials say the Washington-based task force was notified of communications between Hasan and a radical imam overseas, and the information was turned over to a Defense Criminal Investigative Service employee assigned to the task force."

"That worker wrote up an assessment of Hasan after reviewing the Army major's personnel file and the communications."

"The disclosure is important because it shows the Defense Department was aware since late last year of Hasan's contacts with the imam."

"The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the investigation."

Our Defence Department failed to defend us. Ironic....

And absolutely inexcusable!

Someone help me here: isn't there a muslim in the highest position at the Pentagon, or it the DOJ? A Mohammad "something or another" Said, or Hussein (but of course, considering they are oh so origianl in the name department), but anyway, he's a first assisitant to that England asshat. I'll figure it out, I'll GOOGLE Jihad Watch for the info.

[Blanco]

Okay, his name is Hesham Islam (original aren't they) he is at the Pentagon and he is the top special assistant there, or was, when Jihad Watch wrote this article. Be interesting to know if he is still there. link: www.jihadwatch.org/2008/01/who-is-hesham-islam.html

The U S goverment has a new branch its called The under the carpet branch. This new branch qualifications are a broom and carpet, political correctness, playing dumb all the time, can't tell the truth, and of course never get vetted just show up and you get the job.

One has to admire the triumph of the Left, our betters. They've taken over the media, our schools at all levels, our local, state, & Fed government; w/o a shot being fired (overtly, by them). Political Correctness (PC) has been their (dis)ingenious (stealth) doomsday device, destroying free speech/liberty/freedom.

I really don't know which analogy we're rapidly approaching - Terminator or the WWII French resistance.

What's wrong with Hasan's contacts with the imam?... after all it was for research..and why should he have to fight Muslims? his rule book says not to.
Muslims should have all the benefits of being in the military but when asked to do what they signed on to ...it's time for Jihad ..they kill.But if they can't kill because someone reports them ..they call CAIR..
Islamic-phobic. CAIR will sue.
Jihad is jihad

Maj, Hasan made his jihad, now my question is who at the Pentagon investigated, Mr. Hasham Islam? Mr. Islam had Maj. Stephen Couglin fired by Deputy Defense Secretary Gordon England for having too contenious attitude against Islam, the religion. Maj. Coughlin was of course the only non-muslim scholar on Islamic Law available to DoD. Yes, Maj. Hasan has made his effort at jihad to "kill the infidel where ever you find them". And now it is time for the rest of us to demand that our leaders "clean house".

" ... Pentagon worker on a terrorism task force looked into ... Nidal Hasan's background months ago, and concluded he did not merit further investigation ...". A remarkably similar comment to the investigations into the dangers faced by Rifqa Bary. Must be a special sort of "looking" that I am not familiar with.

We need to know what the emails said so they can be analyzed by an Islamic scholar the American people trust to tell the TRUTH. As well as the content of the phone calls. And don't forget some terror communications have been in code; for instance I recall some terror supplies in an Ohio case being referred to as 'pillows' and this reported by the local msm.
