Politically Correct Crowd Has Blood On Its Hands
By BRADLEY HARRINGTON, For The Bulletin
“I don’t make jokes. I just watch the government and report the facts.” – Will Rogers, “Saturday Review,” 1962.
You’d just about have to be living in a cave not to have heard the news of Nov. 5, as reported on CNN: “A gunman opened fire on a soldier processing center at Ft. Hood, killing at least 12 people and also wounding dozens of others.”
The count is now at 13 dead and 29 wounded.
In the last few days, several facts about the American-born gunman – a Muslim radical by the name of Nidal Malik Hasan – have emerged, to wit:
• As he stood up and began shooting, Mr. Hasan shouted “Allahu akbar” (Arabic for “God is great”); Pvt. Joseph Foster, who, according to CNN, was sitting near to Mr. Hasan just prior to the attack and was subsequently shot in the hip, reported that, “I was sitting in about the second row back when the assailant stood up and yelled ‘Allahu akbar’ in Arabic and he opened fire.”
• Hasan had known strong ties to radical Shariah-style Muslim fomenters: “Hasan attended one of the most virulently Shariah-adherent mosques in America, Fairfax County’s Dar al-Hijrah, Islamic Center. He publicly expressed admiration for its one-time Imam, Anwar Al-Awlaki – an exponent of jihad associated with two of the perpetrators of the Sep. 11, 2001, attacks,” as reported by the Washington Times.
• Mr. Hasan was known to have repeatedly used the Internet to express his admiration for Islamic jihad: “His name appears above radical Internet postings praising Islamic suicide bombers,” and he had said at the time of the Arkansas Army recruiting center soldier shooting death back in June that, “Muslims should strap on suicide bombs and detonate them in Times Square,” according the Timesonline.com.
• Much of the above, and more, became known to the U.S. intelligence community long before Mr. Hasan ever shot up the Fort Hood processing center. “U.S. Intelligence officials have stated publicly that Mr. Hasan had attempted to contact Al Qaeda operatives,” said Examiner.com.
So, how is it that this murderous fanatic managed to slip through all of our so-called “homeland security” nets? And how is it that this terrorist ever got onto the Ft. Hood base to begin with?
Well, that last question is easy enough to answer: Mr. Hasan lived at Ft. Hood; his name, you see, is preceded by the title of United States Army Major. How’s that for “security?” A rank, it is worth noting, that he was promoted to after poor performance reviews at his internship at Walter Reed – where, his classmates are now reporting, he was fond of spouting off, according to Fox News, that “I’m Muslim first, American second.”
And, for the final corker, what field was Mr. Hasan interning in? Psychiatry.
What on earth could possibly possess our armed forces, or our “intelligence” community, to not just ignore, but to actually perpetrate and reward what can only be described as sheer lunacy? The desire, burning so brightly in the breasts of the multicultural politically correct crowd, to not offend anybody.
I wonder how all of those PC morons are feeling now, after the 13 bodies of real U.S. soldiers have been lowered into their graves? Do you think they are adjusting their views in the wake of yet another fine example of the “culture” of Islam? Don’t count on it. But, just as surely as the oak tree sprouts from the acorn, the tragic deaths of those brave men and women is blood on their hands.
Have we gone so far into cultural and intellectual bankruptcy that we would sacrifice the lives of true and honest patriots in the name of not antagonizing terrorists, killers and thugs?
One could hardly suppose that to be so – yet, those patriots’ graves are real, not figments of our imaginations. But dead bodies and spilled blood is all that the creeds of Islam and sacrifice will ever achieve.
President Obama, in his speech during the Ft. Hood memorial service, stated that, according the Associated Press, “This is a time of war. Yet, these Americans did not die on a foreign field of battle.”
No, they died right here in America, as immolational fodder for a cultural policy of anti-man, anti-life, anti-American insanity – and the crosses that rise above those 13 graves are clear pointers to the true enemy: Anybody who would trash the values of liberty and individualism for the sake of getting along with bloodthirsty savages who merit nothing but obliteration.
