Hasan to Face Military Trial, Death Penalty

U.S Army Maj. Nidal Hasan, the Muslim psychiatrist charged with 13 counts of premeditated murder and 32 counts of attempted premeditated murder in the November 2009 mass shooting at Fort Hood, Texas -- the worst in history at a military installation -- is to be tried in a military court. If convicted, he faces the death penalty. As Hasan opened fire on his fellow soldiers, all of whom were unarmed, he shouted "Allahu Akbar!" which is Arabic for "god is great." Hasan was shot and paralyzed from the waist down by a civilian police officer, but not before killing 13, one of whom was carrying an unborn child.

From the start, the Obama administration and the mainstream media have downplayed his Muslim religion. Indeed, it took the Associated Press until the twelfth and final paragraph of its most recent dispatch to mention it. Had this same political correctness not infiltrated the military to the point that Hasan's superiors ignored his many behavioral warnings, 14 more people would be alive today.
