Were you stunned to read the pro-Islamic pandering in a Texas paper last week despite the growing body of evidence that the Fort Hood killer was a dvoted Muslim, and killed his fellow soldiers as an expression of his Islamic faith?
This Islamic slaughter of 13 soldiers by an American-born Muslim has again raised the profile of the controversy around Islam and whether there’s any such thing as moderate Islam – and whether or not an Establishment that panders to multiculturalism, ignoring early warning signs of Islamic fundamentalism, can be trusted with leadership in America.
One might expect media outlets in Texas, where the slaughter took place, to be more sensitive to the victims, but the Houston Chronicle on Friday, in an article titled, “Some Muslims fear backlash after rampage,” gently reported: “Almost exactly 24 hours after Thursday’s shootings at Fort Hood, Sgt. Fahad Kamal knelt in a small red-brick mosque near the base and prayed for strength. The 26-year-old combat medic from Sugar Land worships every Friday at Masjidu Ttaqwa on Fort Hood Road, where suspected shooter Nidal Malik Hasan attended services after moving to Killeen from Washington, D.C., this summer. ‘I just want to show myself in a positive way for the religion I represent,’ he said. ‘I just hope people don’t stereotype’.”
Giving Muslim organizations the benefit of the doubt despite the track record of many of them, the paper continued with a very deferential tone towards Islam, “Though the attack has been universally condemned by U.S. Muslim organizations, some worry that it could give the ignorant an excuse to stereotype and lash out at Muslims – or worse.” This claim is also dubious at best, depending on who you identify as representative of Islam. Other reports indicate that some Muslim activists are praising Major Nidal Malik Hasan’s murderous rampage. “They do us one favor though, they explain how Islam justifies the Fort Hood attack,” observes the “Islam in Action” blog.
And other deeply disturbing reports continue to surface. “Texas army killer linked to September 11 terrorists,” reported the Daily Telegraph in Britain on Friday. The article begins: “Hasan, the sole suspect in the massacre of 13 fellow US soldiers in Texas, attended the controversial Dar al-Hijrah mosque in Great Falls, Virginia, in 2001 at the same time as two of the September 11 terrorists, The Sunday Telegraph has learnt.” “Fort Hood suspect became more devout after mother’s death, cousin says,” was a Washington Post headline also on Friday. Fox News is now exploring the question of whether or not the killing should be identified as a terrorist act.
Republican Congressman, Sue Myrick from North Carolina, has declared her commitment to investigate this case. Rep. Myrick is on the House Intelligence Committee and “has been leading a group of four House Republicans on a campaign to investigate Muslim intern ’spies’ on Capitol Hill, an effort launched by supposed revelations in the new book Muslim Mafia. She has touted the book – for which she wrote the foreword ….” She promised: “There’s a lot to look into, and I intend to do that.”

We know from the testimony of various eyewitnesses that this act was carefully planned. Nidal Malik Hasan some time ago told his landlord he would not be renewing the lease on his apartment. He gave away his furniture along with copies of the Qur’an on the morning of the day he committed mass murder. This indicates that he thought he was going to die – in other words, that he was planning a suicide attack. As he began firing, he shouted “Allahu Akbar.” We also know that he was disciplined for proselytizing for Islam during his stint at the Uniformed Service University of the Health Sciences. Law enforcement officials flagged Internet postings written by a man named “Nidal Hasan” and he was praising suicide attacks, but they couldn’t be sure that he was the man who had written them. Still, it was in character: one of his colleagues recalled that he had said that Muslims must rise up against the U.S. military, and had spoken approvingly of Sgt. Hasan Akbar, a Muslim soldier in the U.S. military who lobbed a grenade at American troops, killing two, several years ago. And we know that during a lecture he was supposed to be giving on a medical topic, he instead preached Islam, warning the assembled unbelievers of hellfire in such lurid Koranic terms that some left the hall wondering if he might end up shooting someone someday.

The ‘Muslim Mafia’ hard at work
By Joseph Farah
.
Are you sick to your stomach about the way the media have soft-pedaled the latest Islamic terrorist attack at Fort Hood? Do you share my disbelief at the way the press has gone out of its way to portray this slaughter as something other than what it clearly is? Do you plan to share your revulsion with members of the media who have attempted to bury coverage of the shocking findings of the new book, “Muslim Mafia: Inside the Secret Underworld That’s Conspiring to Islamize America,” at the very moment this book needs maximum attention if we are to protect our country from future attacks?
.
Far from being a setback to the organized front groups for jihadism, the massacre at Fort Hood has been a public relations boon to them. While the courageous American authors of this book have been systematically shut out of mainstream media coverage, the stealth jihadists who pose as Muslim civil rights proponents have had a press field day warning against phantom retribution against innocent Muslims.
.
Hey guys! This is America. Not one Arab-American, not one Muslim-American has been attacked in response to the wholesale slaughter at Fort Hood. I’m an Arab-American, and I don’t have any fear that my neighbors are going to hunt me down because of what happened at Fort Hood. I do, however, fear that I may be a victim of a terrorist attack. And I know I will face retribution in some form for publishing “Muslim Mafia.”

“Indeed. To infidels, Islam is in a certain sense unknowable, and most of us are content to leave it at that. The vast majority of Muslims don’t conspire to kill cartoonists or murder their daughters or shoot dozens of their fellow soldiers. But Islam inspires enough of this behavior to make it a legitimate topic of analysis. Don’t hold your breath. We’d rather talk about anything else — even in the Army.” – Mark Steyn http://article.nationalreview.com/print/?q=YjVmN2E4MjQwZTZkMDgyNTZiMTIxNzhjYzcxZTAxNzI=
