Nidal Hassan is the final and ultimate test case proving that political correctness does kill.

In the weeks, months and years leading up his Fort Hood Massacre, Nidal Hassan did everything possible to let his superiors know that one day he was going to kill a whole bunch of Americans in the name of Allah.

He posted praises for suicide bombers on the internet. He gave lectures in military facilities calling the War on Terror, a war against Muslims. He even put Soldier of Allah on his business card.

It’s not clear what if anything else Hassan could have done that would have gotten him away from his position as a security risk. It appears that his superiors were willing to overlook anything and everything he was doing in the name of political correctness.

Nidal Hassan is the final and ultimate test case proving that political correctness does kill. For all the complaints about profiling Muslims, not only was Hassan not profiled, he was anti-profiled with openly hostile behavior toward America and signs of Islamic fanaticism getting ignored in the name of accommodating Muslims in the military.

The politically correct cover up of Nidal Hassan continues

As a result the injured soldiers Hassan saw were put at risk. And finally when Nidal Hassan went on his killing spree, he engaged in a form of behavior that seemingly could no longer be covered up. Except it was and it is.

From initially pushing Hassan’s case as being some sort of mystical variant of PTSD that can occur before the trauma happens or can be passed on from people who actually have PTSD through the ether, to the latest reports that treat Hassan as the victim—the politically correct cover up of Nidal Hassan continues.

While it was a criminal act to cover up Hassan’s behavior before the attacks, continuing to cover for him after the attacks ranges somewhere in the equator between madness and treason.

Hassan who became death incarnate in accordance with the teachings of Jihad is also a symptom of the politically correct madness of a liberal approach toward Islam that allowed him to kill in the first place.

And still the cover up continues. And that means throwing in loads of distractions of course. Such as Joe Klein ranting about Jewish extremists after a Palestinian Arab gunman murdered US troops in the name of Allah, while condemning any talk of Nidal Hasan’s Islamic beliefs as Islamophobia.

Joe Klein, who has lately lost whatever remained of his reason, penned a Time Magazine rant calling Martin Peretz (who is himself a liberal and had endorsed Obama) a Jewish extremist and going off on Baruch Goldstein and Yigal Amir.

There are today several odious attempts by Jewish extremists, like this one by Martin Peretz and this one by La Pasionaria of the Neocons, to argue that the massacre perpetrated by Nidal Hasan was somehow a direct consequence of his Islamic beliefs as opposed to a direct consequence of his insanity.

Joe Klein characterizes a conclusion held by 70 percent of Americans, and the FBI, as “odious”. He characterized a liberal editor as a “Jewish Extremist”. And Klein himself presumes to claim that Hassan was insane, without any actual evidence of that.

There was, for example, the lunatic Jewish settler, Baruch Goldstein, who opened fire on Muslims praying at the Tomb of the Patriarchs in Hebron in 1994, killing 24 and wounding more than 100. There was also the lunatic Jewish settler who assassinated Yitzak Rabin. I can’t remember many Jews calling these effusions of violence as a natural consequence of devout Judaism. They were acts of psychopathy, as was Hasan’s bloodbath.
