Pajamas Media » Fort Hood Massacre: A Day of Courage and Cowardice
Most of the people in the mainstream media, I suspect, could also see early on exactly what was going on — but to an outrageous degree, they, too, spent Thursday evening doing their best to turn away from the obvious truth.

less useful than the tidbits I picked up online by following links on
various blogs and in Facebook postings. They led me to (among other
things) an AP story, a Daily Mail article, and a Fox News interview
that provided telling details: Hasan had apparently been a devout
Muslim; Arabic words, reportedly a Muslim prayer, had been posted on
his apartment door in ...
