An expert on Islamic terrorism believes federal officials bowed to political correctness in their dealings with the Army major who is accused of killing 13 people at Fort Hood last week.
The FBI is looking into whether it mishandled early information about Major Nidal Malik Hasan. Nearly a year ago, terrorism investigators conducted an assessment of the Army psychiatrist. At that time, the agency decided that Hasan did not pose a threat. The same man now stands accused of killing 13 people and wounding more than two dozen others in the November 5 rampage. The suspect is to be tried by a military court. Investigative officials report that Hasan had once been under scrutiny from a joint terrorism task force because of his communication with an imam who encouraged Muslims to kill U.S. troops and was the reputed spiritual leader of three of the September 11 hijackers. Brigitte Gabriel, founder and president of ACT! for America and author of the New York Times bestseller They Must Be Stopped: Why We Must Defeat Radical Islam and How We Can Do It, believes the feds dropped the ball by overlooking this terrorist connection. "It is a sad day when our military, including our FBI [and] our CIA, our military that is supposed to protect us and protect each other...have [come] to such a state where they are willing to close their eyes and indirectly betray each other to the point that blood of our sons and daughters [is] shed...because of political correctness and because of the level of intimidation that is now going through our military," Gabriel contends. "And I think enough is enough, and this is a wake-up call for America." The activist is encouraging citizens to contact their members of Congress and urge them to support Senator Joe Lieberman's investigation into this incident.
