He killed active duty American soldiers for political reason, in the name of Islam, after infiltrating and pretending to be someone he wasn't. He selected active duty soldiers on American soil for maximum political and ideological impact. Payment is irrelevant.
Really? You might want to share your findings with the US Department of Defense then. Because the investigation into Hasan hasn't turned up any evidence of this bring a terrorist act, haven't found any co-conspirators, or any evidence that supports your claim.
So not only are you a dishonest twatwaffle, you're smacking delusional as well.
Yeah, he was shouting Allahu Akhbar as he was killing them and as every US Department of Defence Diversity Officer knows, that means 'nothing to see here, folks, move along' in Arabic.
Good one, pal.
"And barely had he got to Texas when he started making idle chit-chat praising the jihadist murderer of two soldiers outside a recruitment centre in Little Rock. “This is what Muslims should do, stand up to the aggressors,” Major Hasan told his superior officer, Colonel Terry Lee. “People should strap bombs on themselves and go into Times Square.”
In less enlightened times, Colonel Lee would have concluded that, being in favour of the murder of his comrades, Major Hasan was objectively on the side of the enemy. But instead he merely cautioned the major against saying things that might give people the wrong impression. Which is to say, the right impression.
This is your brain on political correctness.
“You need to lock it up, major,” advised the colonel.
But, of course, he didn’t. He could pretty much say what he wanted—infidels should have their throats cut, for example. Meanwhile, the only ones who felt any “need to lock it up” were his fellow psychiatrists, his patients, his teachers at the Uniformed Services University, officials at Walter Reed, and the brass at Fort Hood. So they locked it up for years, and now 14 people are dead.
..
Major Hasan sent fortnightly emails to Anwar al-Awlaki, sometime spiritual adviser to both the Fort Hood shooter and three of the 9/11 terrorists and an imam so radical he’s banned from Britain, a land with an otherwise all but boundless tolerance for radical imams. In his leisure hours, he adopted the Pushtun dress of those Arabs who journeyed to Afghanistan to sign up with Osama. And eventually the sheer accumulation of such revelations rendered the Post Traumatic Stress Disorder thesis so absurd that even Frank Rich of the New York Times was willing to muse tentatively on whether the major’s years of jihadist exhibitionism were “ignored because of political correctness, bureaucratic dysfunction, sheer incompetence or some hybrid thereof.”
