Fort Hood Massacre: Obama a Coward Who Panders To Islamic Extremists

Obama proves again that he is a coward.  Earlier this week, the Pentagon announced that it would not reclassify the Fort Hood shootings from “workplace violence” to a terrorist attack. To those who suffered that atrocious day in 2009, this was not mere workplace violence.  Thirteen were killed, 29 were injured.  A Defense Secretary spokesman stated that labeling the act as a terrorist act would bias the case against Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan.  It is no secret that Hasan was the shooter, so how can this case be biased?  I believe the real issue here is that Obama and his cronies are too spineless to make a judgment that would offend the terrorist community.

There is direct evidence of email chains between Hasan and al Qaeda leader Anwar al-Awlaki.  If they cannot label Hasan a terrorist, then how is the Pentagon  able to label and prosecute any other acts of terrorism?  Jeffrey F. Addicott, the director for Center for Terrorism Law at St. Mary’s University School of Law in San Antonio, believes this is a feel-good attempt by Obama for pre-election purposes. Addicot states that acknowledging Maj. Hasan’s alleged shooting spree as a major terrorism attack on the homeland “destroys the administration’s narrative that al Qaeda is winding down” and there is a diminishing threat of a terrorist attack occurring on U.S. soil.

Even more infuriating is that by not classifying this case as an act of terrorism, service-member victims are not eligible for Purple Heart medals or access to services reserved for soldiers wounded in Iraq or Afghanistan.

See these faces?  According to Obama administration, they are mere victims of workplace violence.

Below is Staff Sgt. Shawn Manning who was shot six times that day, said his injuries prevented him from continuing to serve. But he won't receive the same benefits as those severely wounded on the battlefield because an Army medical evaluation board didn't deem his injuries to be combat-related, he said.

So... Once again, our great president panders to Islamic Extremists.

Obama's administration can't even follow it's own U.S. Code:
