The more details that comes out on this the worse it looks on our goverment and that it could have been prevented. According to reports he was anti-war and had been in contact multiple times with knowen terrioist including ties to the 911 hijackers. The sad thing is supposly the goverment knew this before the shootings. It just doesn't make sense...we knew this guy was anti-war and had some kind of contact with terrioists but we allow him to remain in service and was even going to send him overseas??
WASHINGTON – Nearly a year before Maj. Nidal Hasan allegedly went on a shooting rampage at Fort Hood, terrorism investigators conducted an "assessment" of him before deciding he did not pose a threat.
After the shooting, the FBI is doing a new assessment — of its own conduct.
The Army psychiatrist is believed to have acted alone despite repeated communications — intercepted by authorities — with a radical imam overseas, U.S. officials said Monday. The FBI will conduct an internal review to see whether it mishandled early information about the man accused in the bloody rampage that killed 13 people and wounded 29.
