Fort Hood Shooting

ABC reports three gunmen killed twelve people and wounded 31 others at Fort Hood Army base in Texas. The US Army confirms that the three were all soldiers and at least one was an officer. One gunman is reported killed and the other two are in custody.

This is one of those incidents where the importance lies not so much in what as in who. Given that the officer has been identified as Major Malik Nadal Hasan, I doubt if he's a Presbyterian and I'm provisionally marking this one down as Enemy Action. If that pans out, then my prediction of what would happen under Barack Hussein Obama has come to pass and we're in the worst mess the West has seen since September 11th.

This is one time when I would be very, very happy to be proven wrong.

Update: It seems now that Major Hasan was working alone.

Update: Major Hasan not dead.

Update: Meanwhile, the MSM are leaving no stone unturned–except one.

Update: Alleged quote by Major Hasan:

Muslims should rise up against the aggressors.

Somehow I doubt post-traumatic stress syndrome is involved.

Update: As night follows day, we're warned of the inevitable, yet never materialises "anti-Muslim backlash".
