Despicable!! Its all so fawked up. The irony is that he was a psychologist that was trained to deal with soldiers having issues and he himself was the one that needed help.

Truly sad.

Cosmos, I am not sure it is ironic or causal. Imagine sitting day in and day out listening to the horrors of those wars and then being sent there yourself.

And I do not mean this in any was as a justification even in the smallest measure of what he did. However, I always think it is important to understand the drivers of these incidents if you want to try to minimize them in the future.

This ******* was vehemently anti-american from the beginning, everyone around him knew how he felt about US and the war in Iraq and his command still decided to deploy him there.

In my opinion, religion has no place in the military, especially a literalist religion that requires its followers to kill or die people with idealogical differences. Obviously, this post is not a good venue of sharing my objections over presence, tolerance and encouragement of other abrahamic religions in US army but suffice it to say, anyone who is guided by their imaginary friends has no place in army or any sensitive position of power - combine this divine entitlement to judge others inside the head of a friggin psychiatrist who is himself a psycho and cannot differentiate between reality and voices in his head telling him to kill indiscriminately and you have the perfect recipe for disaster.

This touches on a nerve for me.
This POS is a terrorist and like ALL terrorist is a COWARD.
It is a damn shame they didn't kill this POS. Now will come all the liberal bleeders with their pseudo-intellectual psycho-babble about how this miserable POS was suffering with internal struggles and it wasn't his fault.
I have another theory but I'm hoping I'm wrong.

Ding ding ding you are correct. This will turnout to be a terrible occurrence of military (army) political correctness.
Nobody wanted to speak out against this COWARD( one who kills innocent defenseless, ie. a terrorist) because we can not say anything negative about the muslim / islamic faith. Now other religions are open game for attacks but not muslims!!
This POS Hasan was supportive of suicide bombers. He felt the black muslim convert who killed the two soldiers at the recruiting office in Little Rock, AK was justified.
I will gladly put a bullet between the eyes of this POS Hasan. Now he will fall in the hands of the liberal $cum and be cottled and treated as a victim. The "poor guy just snapped". Give a fukin break. This was planned to the fullest extent.
