Murder, Mayhem at Fort Hood
By Larry Johnson on November 5, 2009 at 6:00 PM in Current Affairs
Wanted to comment on the news out of Fort Hood that a muslim U.S. Army officer, Major Malik Nadal Hassan, and perhaps two others, went on a shooting rampage today and killed 11 soldiers and one civilian police officer. This is not the first time a muslim in the U.S. military has turned his weapon on fellow soldiers. A word of caution, initial reports can be quite wrong and we should keep our powder dry.
However, if these initial reports are verified as true this will be bad for muslims in America.
The murder and wounding of more than forty soldiers is bad enough. If a cell of muslim extremists have infiltrated the U.S. Army then this is going to cause some major blow back throughout the military. Muslim officers and enlisted personnel will fall under suspicion. Most of this will be unfair and unwarranted. But human nature is what it is and the suspicion engendered by this kind of act will reverbrate for some time and probably hurt our ability to do a better job on winning hearts and minds overseas when there is such distrust in the ranks.
Stay tuned.
