Check out this AP story about how Nidal Hasan was just charged with 13 counts of premeditated murder.

 

The notable quote here is Robert Gates’ statement at the end about leaks to the press regarding Hasan’s ties to an al-Qaida linked imam:

 

 

Defense Secretary Robert Gates said Thursday he was appalled at news
leaks about the   investigation into last week’s deadly shootings at Fort
Hood.

“Frankly if I found out with high confidence anybody who’s
leaking on the Department of Defense, who that was, that would probably
be a career-ender,” he told reporters traveling with him to Wisconsin.
“Everybody ought to shut up.”

Amazing, simply amazing. A jihadist in the US military massacres 13 people after saying for years that infidels should be killed and etc., and no one threw him out of the army. And what gets the Defense Secretary’s goat is that the public is learning how the army’s political correctness enabled this massacre.

 

I wasn’t surprised that Obama kept Gates on. It was clear to me when Bush appointed him after the 2006 mid-term elections that his replacement of Donald Rumseld meant that Bush had decided to stop fighting. 

Bush stopped fighting the jihadists and now Obama and Gates have started fighting the American people.

    This is what happens when the US military and the US administration has resigned itself to the COIN doctrine. So much so, that the US electorate are now regarded as the insurgency which must be countered.

    Caroline, G-d bless you.
    I thought I was the only one disappointed in the appointment of Robert Gates.
    His staying on with the Obama team told me a lot of what I already feared.
    This squirt leans to the left and is a bleeding liberal not what you would prefer for this job.

    Major Moslem Hasan got a poor performance report ,was caught conversing with Islamic terrorists working to destroy the U.S. report and for all this he was promoted to Major.

    Can Israel yet see the insanity of it’s religious devotion to serving America’s demented interests and agenda ?
    Can Israel not yet understand why there is no peace ever possible in following America’s Road Map which only leads to hell ?

    The naive think that with millions of illegal immigrants soon to be given citizenship by the Democrats that the conservatives or RHINO’s will ever again have a majority to win any election. They live in a fantasy world.
    After reading this below it’s clear to me that when God is against a nation it’s finished,doomed.
    The wise become a nation of suicidal idiots.
    Caroline it is not becoming for Israel to follow a nation of idiots.

    ‘No Where to Hide’
    It is funny the way my mind works. When I heard of the tragic news out of Fort Hood, my mind immediately “googled” abortion. What safer place should there be for a soldier than an American military base?
    “The womb.” Returned my thoughts. “The only safer place should be the womb. If a baby is not safe in his/her mother’s womb, no one is safe anymore.” Terror in the womb gives birth to terror in the world.
    Until we stop abortion, no place in America is safe…blood will pursue you….There is nowhere to hide……
    Let me make a connection for you. I’ll tell you what very few will. Islam is NOT a religion of peace. It is a rod that the Lord is using to chastise America. We are blind to it. Our leaders are suicidal…oblivious that blood will pursue us…and that “God is angry with the wicked everyday.” Abortion is wicked…and God is ticked.
    Political correctness, diversity, and tolerance are the instruments that God is using to bring judgment. “Professing ourselves to be wise we have become fools.” He has sent our way “a strong delusion and we believe the most obvious of lies. That is what political correctness is…telling lies to look good.

    General Casey let the cat out of the bag by saying that the loss of diversity would be worse than mass murder. Think about the mentality behind it. It shows a disconnect from reality, from life itself, that worships at the altar of an ideological concept infused with a misplaced religious function. This self destructive mentality is what we are up against in the West. It didn’t just start with Obama, it was starting to emerge, or be detectable, in the 1990’s. Now it is everywhere and Obama is its symbolic leader. It took at least the last thirty years for the deconstruction and long march to work through public institutions to bring us to this point where it now overtly manifests and shows its dominance.
