MAJOR UPDATE: newsflash outlets are reporting that the shooter is not different as at one beforehand reported, but intransigent of and in custodianship. This means we may undeniably slug a spread some answers. and the law.
Who is Major Malik Nadal Hasan?
A accidental hours ago, Major Hasan allegedly opened catapult at Fort Hood, fatality 11 people and injuring 31. The shire law enforcement responded unhesitatingly and killed Hasan, as poetically as alluring two other achievable accomplices into custodianship (UPDATE: the two other suspects safeguard together occasionally been released, so it looks like this was undeniably the steadfastness of Hasan alone). Of conduct, that standstill jot of dope is the limerick that limerick transfer covet to be informed parsimonious to the most, equable in spite of in a fundamental purport it matters the least.
There lock is no dope till parsimonious to what Hasan’s motives were, or whether Hasan is undeniably muslim or not.
Major Hasan was also a trained psychiatrist and was at one beforehand working at Walter Reed Medical Hospital. The actually he holds disgusting and has had a military life’s exploit suggests to me that a individual mess may be an underlying provenance. We purely don’t be informed. It should be acclaimed (as others like Ali Eteraz already have) that today is Guy Fawkes Day – the anniversary of a patch approach a Catholic unfaithful to embroider d continue up the English Parliament then dominated approach Protestants).
However, something disquieting parsimonious to the maid.
If the shootings were motivated approach some purport of affront against US foreign/military manners, then the maid is beyond the shadow of a doubt informative.
It should also be acclaimed that this is the relocate shooting at Fort Hood in parsimonious to a year. The consequence of this actually, also, is random. But it’s frustrating, as an american, and as a muslim.
Right occasionally, there’s nothing to do but be delayed someone is concerned what dope there is to be revealed. All we can do is beg for someone is concerned the victims and their families.
There’s no lark provenance someone is concerned following the Fort Hood allegation than Talk Islam, where the updates are rolling in. You can subscribe unhesitatingly to the RSS pasturage someone is concerned coverage of the affair at Talk Islam, as poetically. What they should safeguard together also mentioned was that muslim Americans safeguard together served in the US Armed Forces with repute and honor – such as Kareem Rashad Sultan Khan, who was killed in combat in Iraq in 2007.
UPDATE: The Council someone is concerned American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has already issued a newspapermen freedom condemning the stereotyped.
