Political Correctness Aided and Abetted the Fort Hood Terror Attack

Tony Jingo
"America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."- Abraham Lincoln

On 11/05/09, America suffered another attack by a Muslim terrorist. This latest jihad was perpetrated by an American army major stationed inside of Fort Hood, Texas. Within hours of the shooting, the identity of Major Nidal Malik Hasan was revealed along with his Islamic extremism and anti-American views.

The National Media downplayed the significance of the attack, the commander in chief gave a "shout-out" to Joe Medicine Crow and the nation was lulled back to sleep. As the nation dozed and grazed, spin masters and professors of political correctness morphed Maj. Hasan from perpetrator to victim.

"A society of sheep must in time beget a government of wolves."- Bertrand de Jouvenal

Col. Terry Lee worked with Major Hasan and provided a further glimpse into the mind of the terrorist. Visit here for video of Col Lee's interview and text of some very telling quotes attributed to Hasan.

Some pundits and analysts have suggested that Major Hasan may have post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) because of two active wars. In order to buy into that notion one will have to believe that PTSD is contagious and/or can be contracted via osmosis. Remember, Maj. Hasan never went to war and is a trained psychiatrist.

A Harvard professor even equated radical Islam to Christian conservatives. The hypocrisy of the president is noted when he preached caution from a rush to judgment. Obama's message is a sound one, but the duplicitous nature of the president belies his intent (or does it?)

One will be hard pressed not to recall the president's rush to judgment when he called the police stupid and falsely alleged racial profiling when a white cop arrested a black man for disorderly conduct. Visit here for a review of the Sgt Crowley and Prof. Gates dust-up.

Major Hasan attempted to contact Al-Qaeda and was the subject of an investigation, but apparently, it was above everyone's pay grade to confront this evil and remove him from the ranks. PC kills.

Despite an understanding of the dangers political correctness may facilitate, it can still be disheartening to witness fellow Americans perpetuate the PC myth.

Different schools of thought ponder if we (the American people, the victims) are to blame via 'racial profiling' or 'insensitivity', or if the government is running a false flag op and the CIA is really behind the terror attack(s), or that the terrorist is simply a misunderstood victim of war(s) and of course the ol' stand-by; it's Bush's fault.

What is clear in the above schools of thought is the shooter is not to blame. Sometimes folks, there is indeed a bad guy that needs to be dealt with. Another thing that is clear is that the actual victims are negated and heroes are not recognized. No victims = No crime, No Heroes = No emergency.

Meet one such hero;Police Sergeant Kimberly Munley. Kimberly Munley is a mother of two and a civilian police officer assigned to Fort Hood.

Sgt. Munley responded to the soldiers' calls for help and stopped the terror attack by Nidal Malik Hasan. Prior to Sgt Munley's arrival Hasan's carnage resulted in 13 deaths and 31 wounded. A list of the casualties can be read here.

In a testament to the American spirit, on 11/05/09 at Fort Hood Texas, our Defenders of Freedom put it all on the line once again and rose to the occasion. During the threat and after, our heroes rushed in to save the lives of the wounded, including that of the terrorist.

Nidal Malik Hasan woke up in a hospital room after receiving the best of healthcare and immediately lawyered-up. Welcome to America.

A timeline of the terrorist's activities up to and including the moment he stands on a desk and shouts "Allahu Akhbar" before opening fire can be viewed here.

If we continue to bury our heads in the sand, regarding the religion of peace, we may soon find the same removed from its host.

"My people will perish because of a lack of knowledge"- The Bible.

    Tony, your style of writing is so factual, I know I can count on you for the REAL story!!! I tend to get so mixed up with waves of anger especially when our gov't. allows Islam into our ranks, and tries to fluff-off mass murder as workplace stress!!!! Bull!!! I want them out of our nation before anymore of our REAL HEROES are innocently murdered for idiotic PC!!! But maybe others will follow suit when they have their homes burned down, as happened to me!!!

    Rereading this a year later...the tragedy still aches.

  • Jeanne Baney11/6/2010

    We must never bury our heads in the sand of complacency. This is as relevant today as it was when it happened.

  • Teila Tankersley11/6/2010

    Terrific article

  • AnnaB1/30/2010

    Very well written, and it is scary how many people are asleep.

  • frank11/29/2009

    I guess the alleged shooter killed alleged victims also.

  • Sylvia Cochran11/28/2009

    It still galls me that he is called "alleged" shooter in the media. Good grief, they saw him do it!

  • Bobbi Leder11/24/2009

    He just pleaded "not-guilty" due to mental illness. When did pre-mediated murder become an insane plea?

  • Dan Reveal11/21/2009

    Thanks, Tony!

  • Shirley Mandel11/18/2009

    Thanks for the voice of reason. Didn't someone once write a book entitled "Common Sense." Politcal correctness is not always correct. What I can't understand is why this great nation is self-destructing. We don't owe anybody anything; we've already done our part to feed the world.
