A Criminal Traitor with Terrorist Sympathies

Reader comment on item: Nidal Hasan – Initial Thoughts on the Ft. Hood Jihadi

Submitted by Mike Fontane (United States), Nov 18, 2009 at 19:21

Certainly the circumstantial evidence surrounding this individual's political views indicate a strong affinity for the anti-American narrative promulgated chiefly by revolutionary Iran on the state actor side, and myriad terrorist groups on the non-to-quasi-state actor side. Mysteriously it seems virtually no-one in the press has linked this particular atrocity to the wider backdrop of non-Muslim anti-Americanism originated on the left.

Extremist rhetoric regarding the U.S. as an imperialist occupier in the Middle East has huge "homegrown" support inside the U.S. body politic. Obama's ex-Reverend said of Louis Farrakhan: "He brings a perspective that is helpful and honest." Mr. Farrakhan has stated: "There is no wicked nation in the past that approaches the evil that is practiced in America on a daily basis."

Obama's "neighbor" Ayers orchestrated the W.U.'s Marxist-Leninist bombing rampage against domestic targets decades before the Major Hassan's of the world emerged on the scene. These types of sleeper attacks are being incubated in an environment where seditious ideology permeates even the highest positions of power.
