Instapundit — FOR CERTAIN VALUES OF THE WORD “WE,” ANYWAY: Chris Matthews: We may never know if religion was a factor at Fort Hood. Plus this: “You’ll know it’s okay to start speculating about Hasan’s motives when cops find a Glenn Beck book on his bookshelf.

He considered the war on terror a “ ...

Tea and Sympathy -- By: Mark Steyn
The Corner on National Review Online — The Nothing-to-see-here media continue to do a grand job. Chris Matthews: We may never know if religion was a factor at Fort Hood. That's almost certainly true in your case, Chris. As for yelling "Allahu akbar" as you open fire, Michael Tomasky, one of the American lefties on The Guardian's payroll, explains it for us know-nothings: The fact that Hassan reportedly shouted the above is meant, I suppose, to imply that he was an extremist fanatic. I'm not sure that it does. My understanding is that it's something Arab people often shout ...

Political correctness was not why Hasan was retained

More on Hasan
Classical Values — ... Hasan was a "vociferous opponent of the war" and "viewed the war against terror" as a "war against Islam." Dr. Val Finnell, who attended a master's in public health program in 2007-2008 at Uniformed Services University with Hasan, said he told classmates he was "a Muslim first and an American second." And yes, this should have been caught earlier: "In retrospect, I'm not surprised he did it," Finnell said. "I had real questions about what his priorities were, what his beliefs were." More details at HotAir. Muslims need to be especially careful with these kinds of people. ...

Denial is powerful! And we may never know why the Wall fell!
Classical Values — ... ." For those of us who belong to the smart set, just as " we may never know if religion was a factor at Fort Hood ," we may never know why the Berlin Wall went up, or whether Reagan was a factor in bringing it down. Seeing things that are painfully obvious (that Communism is bad, or that a terrorist murdered American soldiers) is the province of the stupid, the little people, the "teabag" people. It takes brains to be in denial. That's what makes it so powerful.
