Puff Ho: Fort Hood Shooting Suspect Considers Insanity Plea
Does that apply to all Muslims? Can we excuse a billion lunatics for following a killing cult?

Political correctness is a killer:
There is a rot that spreads outside of Washington into the larger culture. It begins with a confusion of terms, and by not calling things by their proper names, it begins with a disassembling of the moral categories. We don’t hear about terrorism or radical Islam so we are surprised to find it in our midst, and when we do, we don’t even recognize it. More>>

Makes you wonder: whose side are they on?
Why its Important to call Major Hasan an Islamist Terrorist
Yid with Lid
To some people the debate about whether the Fort Hood Jihadist was a terrorist is a silly semantics discussion. The Fact is two years ago we were warned that future acts of terror would not come from al-Qaeda but from home grown Jihadists. Back in 2007 the Council on Foreign Relationsreported:
Experts say it is quite likely the next terrorist attack in the United States will not be the work of well-trained al-Qaeda operatives sent from abroad, but rather that of an American citizen. As al-Qaeda leaders focus more of their energy on trying to inspire others to commit acts of terror, most security and counterterrorism officials believe their message will resonate with at least some small number of Americans. Such fears tend to focus on American Muslims, which might seem logical given recent events in Europe. Yet the American Islamic community also has proven one of the government’s best resources for preventing the emergence of homegrown Islamic terrorists.
“The possibility of a ‘homegrown’ terrorist attack against New York City or any other American city is real and is worsening with time (PDF),” Richard A. Falkenrath, New York City’s deputy police commissioner for counterterrorism, recently told the Senate Homeland Security Committee. This kind of threat is particularly troublesome to counterterrorism officials because it is hard to anticipate the motives or actions of a homegrown terrorist. Yet despite the high probability of a homegrown terrorist attack, experts say such an event is likely to have a relatively small impact when compared to attacks by conventional terrorist networks. As CFR Senior Fellow Steven Simon told a recent symposium, homegrown terrorists are often “feckless and ineffective,” though they have at times proven quite lethal. Simon cautioned that self-radicalized individuals and groups can become far more dangerous when they reach out for support from more established terrorist networks.
Two years after this report Major Hasan shot and killed 14 people at Fort Hood and we are still figuring out what to call it? Of course it is terrorism, it is what we were warned about. But we are are still ignoring the threat. That’s why it is so important to call Hasan’s action what it is…an act of terror, home grown terror. If our criminal authorities don’t start recognizing the domestic threat there will be many more Major Hasans threatening our lives:
