On Friday, the Pentagon’s report on the Ft. Hood terrorist attack was released. U.S. Army officers are punished. Their careers ruined because they did not call attention to Maj. Hasan’s jihadism. Of course, to do so before the attack would have ended their careers due to the politically correct requirement for diversity.
The Left has got the country in a death-grip. This has to change. The military is responsible for the security of the United States. War is too serious for political correctness and the social engineering of the Let.
If this does not change immediately, the West is doomed.
H. Thomas Hayden has an excellent summary here:
owhere in the report does it mention the threat posed by Al Qaeda and nowhere does it mention influences that caused the “self-radicalization.”
There is nothing on why it happened.
The only revealing piece of information in the “Executive Summary: Overview,” is that “DoD force protection programs are NOT focused on internal threats.”
In its 86 rambling pages they treat “the alleged perpetrator,” Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, as just another workplace shooter with references to the Columbine massacre and the new civilian police force concept of neutralizing an “Active Shooter.”
The report did flirt at saying that any attempt to call attention to Maj. Hasan’s radicalism and prevent his promotion could be perceived as reflecting poorly on his superior officers and maybe have negative influence on their careers.
There is another DoD report, which is classified and not available to the public, where one can only hope that DoD recognizes the role “political correctness” played in this tragedy.
Political correctness and the absence of profiling is going to get more American killed until someone in Congress says enough is enough and do something to stop this nonsense.
