Nish, once again I point out you are either stupid, or trolling.

to your point - this person isn't an islamist. as far as we know, this guy was disgruntled and began to use his ideology to justify his contempt towards his employer. this happens, our history is littered w/ these kinds of nut jobs and painting him into the object of the war kind of defeats the entire purpose of the war. that is my beef, nothing else.
This is best served by g

g and her article:

When the terrorist posts anti-American hate-speech on the Web; apparently praises suicide bombers and uses his own name; loudly criticizes US policies; argues (as a psychiatrist, no less) with his military patients over the worth of their sacrifices; refuses, in the name of Islam, to be photographed with female colleagues; lists his nationality as "Palestinian" in a Muslim spouse-matching program, and parades around central Texas in a fundamentalist playsuit — well, it only seems fair to call this terrorist an "Islamist terrorist."
You're putting the cart before the horse, saying that we can't blame Al Q for this nut job, without examining the reason he is a nut job in the first place. Quite simply, if he was simply a disgruntled employee, even with the in-built tools to defeat cursory investigation (i.e. psychiatric examinations), then in the grand scheme of things it is doubtful that even though he can escape the obvious "bad-guy" radar in many places of work, the sheer number of complaints would have outed him as unstable.
Now think about who suicide bombers and terrorists actually are. Tell me, what makes the perfect suicide bomber or self-sacrificing terrorist? This fucknozzle basically displayed the textbook for all to see, in any case. He was unhappy, decried the Western world for everything it stood for, wished there was more he could do in the name of Islam, and most importantly he despised himself or where he was. Religious cults and terrorist organisations
both recruit these very same people through media, preaching and various other channels, enable them and coach them either overtly or covertly and fill their heads with shit.
At the end of the fucking day, Nish, if AQ, JI, and all the other wacko Muslim terrorists didn't go out there with video cameras and tape themselves blowing shit up and being praised for it, and use everything from broadcast media to clandestine preaching, this would not have happened. He'd instead be sobbing in the Chaplains office, instead of thinking it was a good idea to go shooting up the base.
The Muslim terrorists recruited him without even talking to him. It's more than plausible, it's a certainty. Some people are so prone to suggestion - no matter how schooled they are - and can be convinced to do almost anything without even being coerced. This guy was simply easily influenced, and the groundwork he received as a kid (given his name) probably provided an excellent seedbed to grow the suggestion of righteous sacrifice from what he saw on the media and internet.
Putting the horse back before the cart: He is an Islamic radical because he was convinced through whatever channels (media, preaching, personally approached, sleeper agent, whatever) to think this was a good idea. The original sentiments are voiced by radicals and terrorist, and therefore by believing those same sentiments and extolling the virtues of the same AND by acting on them, he becomes one of them.
Enabled he may be because of the political correctness and the impotence of the Army to stop him before he got this far is NOT the same as creating the monster in the first place. It was simply the unwillingness/inabiity to restrain it before it got out of hand.

i just think it's unfair to count their deaths on the hands of our true enemy, when we clearly bred and enabled the institution to fail in the way it did. what happened in ft hood is america's responsibility and don't want to blame johnny al queda for this idiot.
Again, you should. You're just being fucking dense, or you're championing this troll far too much. I'm happy to sit here and tell you you're wrong
all over again, purely because I prefer to think that you are a fucking dumb cunt this time around instead of orchestrating a troll in this particular part of the forum.
Al.Q. , J.I., P.I.J. and the other 70-plus odd organisations create/recruit the terrorist. Not America. Not the Western World.
Now quit being such a retard. Next you'll tell me that if you disable the alarms and turn off the sprinkler system at your work and burn the place down, it is the fault of your employer for not providing enough safeguards for it happening - and unfortunately most of the mainstream US is doing exactly that kind of thing because they are worried about who the paycheck can come from for bad shit happening, and not simply kicking the ass of the cocksucker who did it in the first place.
