Fort Hood suspect angered over wars

A place to live, a space of freedom, that's all people want. On November 5th 2009, Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan’s grew angery over the U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, he opened fired at a base in Fort Hood, Texas. This left 13 people dead and 29 others wounded. Hasan raised eyebrows for comments he made that the war on terror was “a war on Islam” and wrestled with what to tell fellow Muslim solders who had their doubts about fighting in Islamic countries.

The question is why are they still fighting in these countries? is it for oil? is it for land? or is it religous beliefs? I am not saying what has happened was right i am just saying. whatever their fighting for isn't right, 100's of people dying everyday, young and old. It's time for the Us and their allies to step out and worry about their problems in their own countries.

Hasan likely would face military justice rather than federal criminal charges if investigators determine the violence was the work of just one person. This quote was taken from the Toronto star "Hopefully, they can put together the pieces and find out what in the world was in his mind and why he went crazy,” Danquah said. “Aaaaah, it’s sad. Those soldiers could have been my soldiers.” The sad part is, how Danquah just see's them as soldiers not as people with a family and a home, but just people to be sent out to seek and destroy. All this wouldn't have happened if there was no war, and if everyone in the world was at peace.
