The Fort Hood Tragedy: A convert to Islam was a close friend of the shooter

First: A touching testimony from a soldier about the psychological effects of war.
While the authorities say they cannot yet tell us why an Army psychiatrist would go on a shooting rampage at Fort Hood in Texas, we do know the sorts of stories he had been dealing with as he tried to help those returning from Iraq and Afghanistan readjust to life outside the war zone. A soldier’s mind can be just as dangerous to himself, and to those around him, as wars fought on traditional battlefields.

However, the disinformation machine has started. Nothing can excuse the actions of this miserable man but we will be unable to learn from this multifaceted tragedy because the disinformation machine will get us away from the truth. Including this piece of hypocrisy from this unkown convert who was too close to this miserable man, so close that he saw it coming and he didn't do anything...
Islam's Achille's heel is its proselytism. Keep the door open to converts exploiting psychologically vulnerable people and you can be sure of more tragedies to come...
