		<description>If he didn&#039;t like wars and fighting he shouldn&#039;t have joined the military. Instead he just showed that he is a criminal based on his religious beliefs.</description>

		<description>Most Muslims do not agree with Al Qaida and the Al Qaida wannabe&#039;s.
But at the same time there has to be some dissonance for a practicing Muslim serving in the US Armed forces.
Just imagine what it would be like to be a practicing Christian serving in a Muslim country&#039;s army and having to listen to stuff; occupying a mostly CHristain country and know about how badly Christians were being treated. A practicing Christian is going to be affected.
You can&#039;t excuse what he did, but I bet his head was a pressure cooker.
War, especially the way the US forces fight - no one brings to the field the destructive capabilities of the US army in full flight - is ultimately a self-defeating strategy. It harms its own soldiers just as much the so-called enemy.

		<description>In the photo above, Sgt. Kamal is wearing a combat patch from the 82nd Airborne Division, which indicates he has already deployed to a combat zone while assigned or attached to the 82nd.  I can&#039;t begin to imagine what it is like for American soldiers who are also practicing Muslims, to operate in such a climate of fear and suspicion.  To paraphrase WEB DuBois, I can&#039;t imagine what it&#039;s like being &quot;an American, a [Muslim] . . . two warring ideals in one dark body, whose dogged strength alone keeps it from being torn asunder&quot; (The Souls of Black Folk, pp. 5)

		<description>It needs to be said that crazy violence is Fort Hood&#039;s main product.  Sounds like one of their human time bombs detonated prematurely.  If Major Hasan had done the same thing in an Afghan village, we wouldn&#039;t even hear about it.
The Army needs to explain its refusal to release people on grounds of conscience.  The wars in Afghanistan and Iraq aren&#039;t about anything that&#039;s important to us.  If anything, we&#039;re puzzled about what these wars really are about.
I&#039;m incredulous when I watch the evening news, as one spokesperson after another laments, &quot;&lt;i&gt;How can anybody &lt;b&gt;do&lt;/b&gt; such a thing&lt;/i&gt;? They don&#039;t ask questions like that about the hundreds of thousands of victims of American violence.
The underlying reality is that the all-American kids who died in the Fort Hood tragedy are &lt;i&gt;not&lt;/i&gt; innocent.  They&#039;re part of the American war effort - for which America refuses to accept responsibility.
Here&#039;s E.E. Cummings:
