The New Army: Psychiatrists, Strip Clubs, Jihad and 'Diversity'

The Army that Patton and McArthur commanded has apparently ceased to exist:

The Army psychiatrist authorities say killed 13 people and wounded 29 others at the Fort Hood Army Base Thursday was a recent and frequent customer at a local strip club, employees of the club told FoxNews.com exclusively.
Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan came into the Starz strip club not far from the base at least three times in the past month.

Whereas the Old Army specialized in killing our nation's enemies, today's New Army specializes in diversity:

The general said that while what happened at Fort Hood was a tragedy, "I believe it would be an even greater tragedy if our diversity becomes a casualty here."
"And it's not just about Muslims," he said. "We have a very diverse Army. We have a very diverse society. And that gives us all strength. So again, we need to be very careful with that."

Diversity is our strength, until it kills us.

This general has a future as an Obama cabinet member or czar.

For any imbicilic moron out there who is unfamiar with the TROJAN-HORSE concept of ancient Roman warfare, let me try and 'spain it to 'ya, okay? It was the military procedure to encase a giant wooden horse with soldiers, have it drug inside the gate of the enemy's castle/fortress, whereupon said soldiers could climb out of the trojun-horse and surprise/defeat their enemy INSIDE OF THE CASTLE/FORTRESS. This folks is what is now happening inside of America [and its military]. Our enemy has sneaked its soldiers inside our country's administration and its military and are only waiting for the most opportune monent to climb out of the WOODEN/TROJUN HORSE and to destroy America from within-------WAKE UP, AMERICA!!!!!

Islam's intention today is world domination, just as it was in the 7th Century, under Muhammad.

Muslims come to America as Jihadis or as population builders, "breeder cows" (Islam encourages polygamy, which IS practiced in America by this subversive group).

Most people do not know what the "penalty" is for leaving Islam: DEATH! To leave Islam is Apostasy and the penalty for Apostasy is DEATH. Any Muslim can walk up to you and KILL YOU and it is not a sin for them to do it.

Islam is not so much a religion as it is a political ideology and a cult (The Cult of Death). Allah is not the God that all people worship, contrary to what the liars of Islam like to say. Instead, Allah is the PAGAN Moon God of the ancient, pre-Muhammad Arabian Peninsula. Muhammad repackaged the old PAGAN Moon-God Cult and called it Islam. The Moon God is a blood-thirsty devil and Muhammad was an apt "Prophet" for this Moon God. Muhammad was a child-molesting, caravan robbing, slave taking, murderer of bound captives (he personally killed by chopping-off the heads of many hundreds of bound captive men and boys, right in front of the wives and children).

The Cult of Death (Islam) should be outlawed by America, not coddled and bowed-down to by our military and government. Will the next military member who "GOES JIHADI" ram a passenger-filled Civilian airplane with his military jet? Will an artillery crew suddenly start shelling a nearby town or city (20 miles away)! Will the "turned Jihadi" use one of our high-tech artillery missile systems to kill hundreds of us from a great distance, here in America?

It is only a matter of WHEN not "IF" for this evil to take place.

Great Post. Unfortunately it is a bit to early for the American Reconquista. Liberals and the MSM Media still feel safe warm and cozy in their bubble world.

SoCon| 11.9.09 @ 2:57PM

The Liberals and the Lame Stream Media didn't feel very safe on September 11, 2001, as I recall. We ignore Liberals' treachery at our own peril.

Dixie Pixie| 11.9.09 @ 4:23PM

Right, One minute they were the “Masters of the Universe” living in the “End of History” secular liberal dominance of the whole planet and then a headlong crash into reality. It is liberal delusions and their insistence in demanding everyone live in the liberal delusions and that is the major problem.

SoCon| 11.9.09 @ 7:27PM

Unfortunately for us, we'll get caught in the Liberals' delusional nightmare, too. They're unerringly stupid.

nessus| 11.9.09 @ 1:15PM

The real issue in my humble opinion is immigration, specifically immmigration of muslims into our country. You can not fight a war when you allow the enemy to populate your country (via immigration) and even serve in uniform in our own Army.

Not politically correct but then again, political correctness is largely lying in order not to hurt some feelings.

Immigration and the suitability of non-Western peoples like muslims is the real issue that is never discussed.

Charles H. Kuhl| 11.9.09 @ 1:24PM

Those strip clubs you mention are primarily frequented by American soldiers. At least they aren’t Chippendales! My father was stationed at Ft Hood back in the 70s when the O clubs had topless dancers. I remember frequenting the Navy O Clubs with topless dancers in the early 90s during my stint with the Navy. This all ended with the Tailhook incident.

You should investigate the devotion to diversity at all costs mentality at the DoD. All services, not just the Army is subject to this doctrine. The mindset has changed from providing equal opportunity for a true meritocracy to ensuring the demographics of the services resemble a united colors Benetton ad no matter what the cost in efficiency and unit cohesion.

rod stanton| 11.9.09 @ 1:53PM

THis problem is the direct faul of DHS and the PC "administrators" there under GWB. DHS was aware of the psychiatrist's intentions over a year ago. But the PC "managers" were afraid to do anything.
DHS will never do what we were told it would. It should be torn down.

Bob| 11.9.09 @ 1:56PM

Well, RSM, I see AmSpec and extreme right xenophobia is alive and well. Republicans are basically an all white, Southern party and you wish to maintain that status. I understand that. When I was in the Army I met with antisemitism so perhaps Jews shouldn't serve either.

Doesn't evangelicalism mean that you want to turn everyone into Christians? Hmmm....

Well, at least you right wing "conservatives" are consistent -- no non-whites need apply for the Army and no non-whites need apply to the Republican party.

By the way, nessus, are you an American Indian? If not, we should have not let your ancestors enter this country....

By the way, this officer was BORN in the United States. Most terrorists within the U.S. borders are right wing whites according to Homeland security, and not Muslim Arabs. What about whites who become terrorists like the shoe bomber? That's it, let's not have religious freedom. After all, our forefathers didn't want religious freedom, did they?

ECM| 11.9.09 @ 3:21PM

Wow, that is a staggering amount of ad hominem and non sequiturs for one post--you must workout!

Observer| 11.9.09 @ 3:36PM

@Bob| 11.9.09 @ 1:56PM
"When I was in the Army"

For what country?

Dixie pixie| 11.9.09 @ 4:01PM

Bob, I liked your posts when when you were “Bob of the Noisy Funnel Head”. Your recent post was your worst regression into liberal paranoid delusions yet. Just for your information the FBI terrorist watch list has over 1 million names but only 50,000 are Americans. That is less than 5%. Try funny, not paranoid.

Charles H. Kuhl| 11.9.09 @ 2:25PM

Bob,
You (probably unknowingly) identified the problem. "Most terrorists with the U.S. borders are right wing whites according to Homeland Security and not Muslim Arabs." DHS is too politically correct to identify the problem. Since 2001 how many right wing whites have been convicted of murder while hiding in the trunk of their car sniping at random victims, how many right wing whites have killed people at El Al ticket counters, how many right wing whites have killed soldiers aboard military installations, how many right wing whites have been convicted of conspiracy to kill soldiers at military installations, how many right wing whites have been convicted of aiding A' Qaeda? Finally, Richard Reid is a British Citizen of mixed (Jamaican and British) heritage.

Bob| 11.9.09 @ 3:28PM

....and how many right wing whites have killed abortion doctors, local families, Oklahoma, etc.? I don't have a problem with targeting radicals whether they be Muslim or part of Operation Rescue. I grew up in a black neighborhood so I understand DWB and believe some of that targeting is just fine. However, the diversity of Germans, Italians, Spanish, Jews, Russians, and Africans (and many more) have made this country great. We should stand for religious freedom but criminalize bad behavior.

In the next 20-30 years, Christian whites will be a minority in this country -- get used to it.

By the way, I do have a problem with political correctness when it goes too far -- as it did with the Hassan case. He was reported to his superiors several times about his political views and they did nothing. From what I can gather, there are about 30,000 Muslims in the U.S. military. We've had no problems from about 29,999 of them. Think about it....

Charles H. Kuhl| 11.9.09 @ 4:49PM

Since 2001, I count one abortionist killed, George Tiller, who was killed the same week that an American Muslim killed an Army recruiter. I thought (apparently more than you did) about your assertion that we have only had problems from one military Muslim, Nidel Hasan. What about Sgt Hasan Akbar who killed two American officers in Kuwait? What about former Sgt Ali Mohammed who pled guilty to participating in the 1998 American Embassy bombings?

SoCon| 11.9.09 @ 3:08PM

HuffPo Bob the 'RINO' fiscal Conservative strikes again! As a Republican, of course, he would point out that the REAL American terrorists today are the patriotic white folks in his own party such as returning vets, gun owners and pro-lifers. Of course.

Is it possible that HuffPo Bob the 'RINO' is lying and is really an Axelrod Astroturf troll? Only Scum-bucket 'RINO' Bob knows for sure.

Bob| 11.9.09 @ 3:30PM

Hey, extremist SoCon -- I am a vet and a gun owner. Are you???? Did you serve our country??? I didn't think so... Just like Cheney, Rush, Hannity, and Beck....

Pete2| 11.9.09 @ 6:40PM

I served my country during Vietnam,scumbag, and I doubt very much you did anything like that unless it was as a rear echolon pussy. You have all the markings of a psychotic left wing nut job. Your rants should be ignored.

SoCon| 11.9.09 @ 6:40PM

Well, then, HuffPo Bob the 'RINO', according to Homeland Security's Terrorist Watch List, you are a bonafide American TERRORIST for sure, and a lying old white guy terrorist at that!

Grzmlyk| 11.9.09 @ 3:16PM

One thing's for sure: Bob is an incompetent whack job and a habitual liar who knows ZERO about his professed area of expertise.

Wow - great resume for an Obama czar!

Bob| 11.9.09 @ 3:39PM

Is that right? Please, Grzmlyk, show me the inflation adjusted chart that shows tax cuts raise revenues more than tax increases. Hmmmm.... I guess we understand who knows very little... Remember, people who live in glass houses.... etc., etc., etc.

SoCon| 11.9.09 @ 6:41PM

3/5 Bob, isn't there a Bible out there that needs to be translated?

Ken (Old Texican)| 11.9.09 @ 3:27PM

Folks
Old Bob keeps forgetting the brilliant black persons among us: Judge Bork, Thomas Sowell, Supreme Justice (senior moment), and Lloyd Marcus...et al.
True American patriots.
...or in Bobs's twisted little psyche...they are all "house n___ERs".
Bob, you need a raise from Mr. Soros...or do better.

...or get fired.

Bob| 11.9.09 @ 3:37PM

Bork was white and I'd forget Thomas as well. At the last Republican convention there were only 35 black delegates out of thousands. Thanks, Ken, for proving that AmSpec readers have very little knowledge.

Grzmlyk| 11.9.09 @ 4:01PM

Bob, I repeat: you are a whack job and a liar.

And incompetent.

I am amused, however, at your pre-emptive strike against what i guess you thought I was going to say. I get it bob: No one ever has, or ever will, pay more than, what did you decree? 28% of their income in taxes, according to you. No need to worry, then. And yes, GDP just keeps going up, up up and the numbers aren't tainted at all. Okie dokie. And government spending doesn't represent the dilution of GDP by taking an ever-larger portion of productive dollars and put them to unproductive use.

Dude, you are an idiot. And if you ever WERE a CFO, or whatever it is you claim to have been, my guess is you were summarily fired within one quarter. But no doubt you have a chart to disprove that as well.

And serving in the military? That's a new one!

Ya keep us stitches. By all means, continue to be a religion of one. Nice ecoystem you have there; you are both the worshipped and the worshipper. Doesn't it ever get lonely, you know, with zero followers? You know, besides yourself?

Resume Enhancer| 11.9.09 @ 4:54PM

Dude if you follow Bob you know he is, has, or was:

- A financial expert
- A Harvard grad but he went to Harvard while working 80 hours a week and raising a family
- Bob also lived in South Central with the brothas
- He was Special Forces in the Army
- And now he is a Jew to top it all off

There's probably other stuff I've missed but I usually skip over his drivel, so for all I know he's added a few whoppers to his internet resume.

Bob| 11.9.09 @ 5:35PM

Pretty close, except that I was in military intelligence and not special forces in the Army. In Nam I worked under General Ewell in HQ II Field Force. By the way, the people at AmSpec can confirm all of this is true. But then again, you extremists are not interested in facts....

Pete2| 11.9.09 @ 6:43PM

Were you the guinea pig they tried out all those mind bending drugs on? you're a nutcase, pal, and you can spew out all the names you want...the only one that matters is the name of your caretaker.

SoCon| 11.9.09 @ 7:17PM

Resume, you forgot to add the little tidbit about Bob translating the Bible when he was fifteen. Ran scorched him good for that whopper!

Resume Enhancer| 11.9.09 @ 8:09PM

Sorry like I said I missed a ton of his stuff as I started skipping it months ago. Usually his posts can be summed up thusly:

Me smart, SoCons/Sarah Palin are ruining the republican party, blah blah blah, oh and here's a chart.

Maybe he translated the Bible into Ebonics as after all he was living in South Central wit' de Bloods an' de Crips?????

What is it they say about "military intelligence" again? LOL!

SoCon| 11.9.09 @ 9:45PM

"...blah blah blah, oh and here's a chart." Hahaha!

Retired Guy| 11.9.09 @ 5:02PM

Well well well the chickens are certainly coming home to roost! I remember about a year ago when I posted as "Active Duty Guy" I was labeled a troll for bringing up how things like political correctness has infected our military, and how most officers are merely politicians who care more about their next rank than the safety and security of their troops, let alone the nation. But since I wasn't a republican zombie I was labeled a troll.

Nice that I am vindicated, but unfortunately it cost the lives of 13 soldiers. Are we awake yet folks? Still OK with all those "moderate" muslims walking around (plotting your destruction)?

When I was on active duty at one of my last assignments there was a muslim who worked with TS COMSEC material every day. NOBODY saw an issue with that, even when he traveled to Turkey for his arranged islamic marriage. He was a "moderate" doncha know?

Haha! Hey, maybe it'll be your loved one who gets blown away by the next kook islamic nut who decides to take out a few infidels to ensure his 72 virgins and little boys in "paradise." Chalk up their death to political correctness. I wonder how many more "Major Hasans" are in the military RIGHT NOW spouting off anti-American jihadi garbage and who's commanders are too afraid to do anything for fear of not getting that next big promotion? Don't YOU?

Smitty| 11.9.09 @ 7:21PM

Retired Guy, I think you're confused; that's Huffington Post you're talking about, we're AmSpec, the Conservative site, remember?

Retired Guy| 11.9.09 @ 8:04PM

Why the hate Smitty? All I did was speak the truth. I said and will continue to say that PC BS has infected the US Military to our peril. You may think every member of the military is some kind of cape-wearing, right-wing hero, but I'm here to tell you they're not. I would think even right-wing pom-pom waving zombies would have to agree that current events bear this truth out, but it appears some are more concerned with labels than truth. It is truly sad that you are more concerned with nitwit replies than the reality that there are probably more Major Hasans in uniform right now just waiting to explode. Whatever dude.

Yeah, Amspec, the conservative sight, where just today you got Quin Hillyer making excuses for Joseph Cao. Yeah, conservative my butt. Where every week you can count on a lecture or two about "big tent" nonsense.

Smitty| 11.9.09 @ 8:39PM

No hate here, Retired; I'm just saying you're preaching to the choir here at AmSpec.

Sure, Quin and Klein are a little squishy and there are moronic trolls like 'RINO' Bob on this site, but most of us, like you, detest PC and are disgusted with the Army for their betrayal of these young soldiers. Absolutely disgusted.

Retired Guy| 11.9.09 @ 9:57PM

Fair enough. I apologize for misunderstanding.

Nick| 11.9.09 @ 5:10PM

Don't waste your time with 3/5 Bob folks.

In case you didn't know, until recently (last June), 3/5 Bob thought that blacks had 3/5 of a vote under the U.S. Constitution, as originally written.

He also doesn't know when biological HUMAN life begins because he is not sure when "ensoulment" takes place.

And I just learned he falsely claimed to have translated the Bible from the original Aramaic when he was 15.

He is a pseudointellectual, ignore him.

Bob| 11.9.09 @ 5:38PM

Thank you, Nick, for encouraging me to post more. Personal attacks are always more effective than the truth or arguing on the merits. You must have gone to school with Palin....

Nick| 11.9.09 @ 5:46PM

3/5 Bob,

How is it a personal attack to use your own words against you?

SoCon| 11.9.09 @ 7:23PM

Nick, I think Bob just had a "Senior Moment" of his own.

Pete2| 11.9.09 @ 7:15PM

The rottenest of the PC world is coming to the surface quite quickly. This incident is the worst of many incidences where PC'ism has overtaken common sense. Hopefully the majhority of people are starting to see thru this and thru people like that "Bob". I think we are having the second "Great Awakening" this nation, hopefully it's not too late. The damage that was started under Clinton, expanded under Bush, and culminated under Obama is finally forcing people to wake up. Let's hope next Novemeber will become the starting point of reclaiming our nation from these other domestic terrorists.

Liberal Reader| 11.9.09 @ 7:37PM

The Army has not "ceased to exist."

It just doesn't exist in the considerations of the chickenhawks who were thoughtless cheerleaders of the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars.

"They're paying for it. You eat it."

What do YOU care, after all, about the sacrifices of men who serve two, three, four years abroad?

What do YOU care about the substandard medical treatment to which these men have been subjected?

You think that mindless support of Bush / Cheney policies, no matter what their consequences, is patriotic and that it is actually what the troops need.

And look at how well it's paid off! 8 years in Afghanistan, and NO ONE, Republican or Democrat, can give the American people a good reason we're still there. And 6 years in Iraq, 4,000 dead, at least, and NO ONE can say what the hell we're there for.

But to ask? Well, hell, THAT's the real offense to our troops, isn't it.

Again, McCain. How can you BE so obtuse? Why bother to be a writer at all? You don't have anything to contribute that any one of the dumb hicks posting on this thread couldn't easily deliver after a few beers.

SoCon| 11.9.09 @ 8:44PM

Dumbshit! You would defend the terrorists against your fellow Americans.

You are a nasty piece of human excrement, LR/Jeremiah: Too bad post-natal abortions aren't legal for liberals like you.

Mary Louise| 11.9.09 @ 9:39PM

There must be good Muslim men, but that faction that this guy represents has to be the most inadequate faction of men in the world. He probably owns every episode of Baywatch.

There was such good will towards Obama just before and after his election. I felt it myself. RET wrote a warm piece noting that Europe had still to elect a black leader while we, here in the supposed backwater of the US, did it proudly.

I have to admit it faded fast. Maybe it was the Toastmaster Chic of the Office of the President Elect and traveling lectern that made the whole thing seem a bad dream.

And the inauguration was just as bad. That stupid little diversity ditty by the portly reverend was such a load of crap.

Anyone who has ever lived and moved in the heart of a City knows his whole rap was as false as Obama's perfunctory nod to being the president of all Americans.

Live in a City. Listen to a black woman who mocks the speech pattern of Hispanics. Witness that it's a white girl an illiterate cleaner comes to and asks if she would read a letter to him that he doesn't understand. He doesn't seem to want to go to his own people. Maybe that’s because he encounters a bigotry there that wounds him.

Listen to the black women talk about 'she light. she nice.' What happened to Black Is Beautiful? Don’t ask.

That reverend's pitch was the exact opposite of the truth. Black and brown really don't give a damn if either one gets to come on down. And if Yellow catches you sidling up to his sister, that's likely to become a real problem.

Mark| 11.10.09 @ 3:49PM

The army needs to seriously reconsider it's mental health services. There's a really good article on Hasan and the psychological casualties of war here:

The Army seriously needs to reconsider its worship of Political Correctness; their priorities are all screwed up.

Liberal Reader:
So let me understand. 3,000+ dead on 9/11, millions of Moslem terrorists committed to the death of us all, and you say that there is no reason for us to be in what the young troops today call SW Asia? Do you actually LIVE in the United States? Also, your obvious solution is to come home and hope for the best when we have to fight them in our streets? This is intellect? Strange form, thereof.
