Fort Hood

Massacre

Was

Terrorism

In his nationally televised remarks

following the horrendous killings

at Fort Hood,

President Obama never mentioned

the “T” word —

terrorism.

The attack was

an act “of violence.”

No mention of terrorism.

In fact,

the Fort Hood shooting is the

first terror attack on American

soil since 9/11.

But Obama,

reluctant to take the rap

for inadequate protections

against such attacks,

is doing everything he can to

make it look like an adult version

of the Columbine school shootings.

We are treated to stories

about the killer’s dread of being

sent back to Afghanistan and

his deformed personality.

But, the fact is that

Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan

jumped on a table,

yelled “Allah hu akbar”

and began the shooting

rampage that killed

13 people and wounded

30 more.

Ilana Freedman,

CEO and senior analyst for the

Gerard Group International,

which provides intelligence

analysis for business and

homeland security,

describes Hasan as a

“lone wolf terrorist”

who acted without apparent

coordination with any other

person or organization.

But that does not make

him any less of a terrorist.

.

The dividing line,

of course,

between a terrorist and

a psychopathic killer is

political motivation.

His statements right before

opening fire would indicate that

Hasan was motivated by

fanaticism and a commitment

to Islamic fascism,

even though President Obama

bends over backwards to

avoid saying so.

Obama’s refusal to call

the attack terrorism,

and to heed the warning signs

about the porous nature of

our security system that

allowed it to happen on

a military base,

recalls President Clinton’s

deliberate decision to downplay

the 1993 attack on the

World Trade Center.

He did not visit the site of

the attack and treated it

as a crime,

promising to find those

guilty and punish them,

rather than to attack the

international groups that

funded and enabled them.

There may be no groups

behind Maj. Hasan’s attack,

but the fact that he was an

officer in the Army,

with full access to a military

base and its arsenal of weapons,

while holding the views he did,

is the first indication of a

laxity in security under

President Obama.

This attack did not take

place in a shopping mall

or a school,

where security procedures

are, understandably, relaxed.

It happened on the highest

security place of all —

a military base.

That the military failed to

spot the possibility of an attack

and had no measures in place

to prevent it must be laid at

the feet of the commander

in chief of that military:

President Barack Obama.

Many commentators have

warned that the diminution

of security and the weakening

of our anti-terrorist protections

would leave us vulnerable to

be hit again.

Now it has happened.

And the president is doing

everything he can to blur the

distinction between murder

and terrorism.

It was his failure to understand

the difference between an act

of war and a crime that

undermined President Clinton’s

administration’s anti-terror

efforts and led directly to 9/11.

It would appear that

President Obama is going

down the same road of denial

and minimization of

political harm.

There may be casualties

at Fort Hood, but Obama is

determined that his popularity

will not be among them.
