Ft. Hood report “cites political correctness” 

We have maintained from the beginning that a top-down culture of political correctness in the military made possible Nidal Hasan's jihadist attack at Ft. Hood.

Last week, a new report that investigated how the FBI handled the run-up to the Ft. Hood massacre suggests "political correctness" played a role in decisions the FBI made regarding Hasan. See the Fox News story below.

ACT! for America has contact with many current and former FBI field agents who express, off the record, their concerns about a climate of top-down political correctness at the FBI. You can see this climate at work in the FBI's rewrite of its counterterrorism training materials.

It's refreshing to see a report that actually identifies political correctness as a problem.

Fort Hood report faults FBI for missteps in Hasan review, cites political correctness 

Published July 19, 2012

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/07/19/fort-hood-report-recommends-many-changes-for-fbi-no-disciplinary-action/ 


A long-awaited report on the Fort Hood shooting faults the FBI for numerous failures in the run-up to the massacre that left 13 dead, concluding that agents' assessment of Maj. Nidal Hasan was "belated, incomplete and rushed" -- and suggesting political correctness played a role in the bureau's decision not to investigate him more thoroughly.

The report, obtained by Fox News Thursday afternoon, includes 18 specific recommendations for changes at the FBI. However, it does not recommend any disciplinary action against employees at the bureau.

The report found that the FBI "erred" in several respects -- by failing to interview Hasan when concerns were raised about his contact with known terrorist Anwar al-Awlaki; by failing to search for more email contact between Hasan and Awlaki; and by waiting too long to pursue leads on Hasan.

The FBI "erred in the process they followed to conclude that Hasan's communications with (Awlaki) were benign and acceptable," the report said. "Their assessment of Hasan was belated, incomplete and rushed, primarily because of their workload."

The report, conducted by former FBI Director William Webster over the course of two years, concludes that despite "missteps," the problems at the FBI in the lead-up to the massacre do not constitute "misconduct" that would warrant disciplinary action.

Was Pogo right? Are we killing ourselves and our Nation with Political Correctness?

America’s worst enemy

BY COACH COLLINS, ON JULY 21ST, 2012

By Jim Emerson, staff writer

“We have met the enemy… and he is us” …Walt Kelly

America’s greatest enemy is willful ignorance; or is that willful political correctness. 

On November 5, 2009, Army psychiatrist Maj. Nidal Hasan, an American Muslim of Palestinian descent, opened fire on unarmed soldiers and their families at the Fort Hood Soldier’s Readiness Processing Center. They were there to receive routine medical treatment immediately prior to and on return from deployments. The Major who was wounded during the action became paralyzed from a gunshot wound. He is currently awaiting trial by court-martial for 13 counts of premeditated murder and 32 counts of attempted murder. His trial date is August 20.  An additional count of murder of unborn child under the Unborn Victims of Violence Act and Article 119a of the Uniform Code of Military Justice has not been filed at this time. We can only suspect why.

Political correctness

A report released by former FBI Director William Webster blames the FBI for not acting on information about an Army officer having regular communication with known terrorists. Webster reported that the FBI looked away from a genuine threat to fellow soldiers.  Did the FBI fail to act in a professional manner because they didn’t want to be seen as targeting an American Muslim?

The FBI and the Army had all of the indicators that Maj. Hasan was a ticking time bomb but did not act because of political correctness. Because of their fecklessness people got killed. When you are afraid to point out the enemy you become the enemy. Far too often political correctness is willful ignorance. The White House classifying this terrorist act as “workplace violence” comes to mind.

Hillary Clinton’s top aide, Huma Abedin has an interesting family history.   Her late father, mother and brother had and still have connections to the Muslim Brotherhood, yet it seems that being close to Hilary Miss Abedin aka Mrs. Anthony Weiner, had no problem getting a security clearance in spite of her family connections. There is a legitimate concern that Huma may have influenced State Department policy concerning the Brotherhood led revolts in Egypt, Libya and Syria.

Five members of Congress lead by Michele Bachmann (R-MN) have called on the Inspectors General of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the Department of Defense, the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Justice and the Department of State to investigate the possible involvement of the Muslim Brotherhood in the U.S. Government.  Rep. Bachmann must be over the target because she is catching flak from the Kool-aid drinkers sipping from the well of Political correctness. What the politicians don’t have the courage to say that if the CIA had someone similar to Huma’s position within the Russian Foreign Ministry they would call her a well-placed spy.
