Fort Hood Massacre Survivor Blasts Atty General Holder for Terrorism Denial

This interview with a Fort Hood survivor is worth watching, but here’s a partial transcript if you don’t have the time.

Sgt. Alonzo Lunsford, who will be the prosecution’s lead witness. Lunsford was shot seven times in the deadly nightmare.

Attorney General Eric Holder has refrained from filing terrorism charges in the case, despite the myriad connections to extremist leanings, including fact that Hasan was in contact with Al Qaeda before the “workplace shooting.”

“Not only am I disappointed [in Holder], I’m embarrassed. Mr. Holder needs to understand the repercussions of his actions,” Lunsford said, adding that perhaps the attorney general should visit troops overseas in Afghanistan or Iraq to better understand how and why service men and women do what they do.

Lunsford also expressed outrage at the fact that some victims are financially struggling, but because of the categorization of the shooting as a “workplace shooting,” he and those other victims are not entitled to combat-related benefits they would have received had they been injured overseas. To make matters worse, Hasan has continued to receive paychecks over the past four years.

Every time Holder lays down at home in peace, Lunsford said, “he needs to understand he’s able to do that because of the blood that’s been shed by service members…”

    Holder never met an anti-American terrorist he didn’t approve of and wish to set free. It’s a simple as that.
    As Hasan was caught in the act there is no way he isn’t going to be convicted, therefore you need to put him up on the lowest possible charge, in this case “workplace violence” instead of treason and murder, which will get him shot as a serving member of the military.

      There is no crime called work place violence in the Uniform Code of Military Justice. Hasan will be charged with murder, attempted murder and other counts. Please do not think Hasan will get off lightly for his crimes. There is one sour patch, however. For a member of the Armed Forces to be executed, it requires the specific approval of the President of the United States in his role as Commander-in-Chief. I cannot imagine 0bama consenting to such a sentence.

    They can’t call hasan a terrorist without making themselves look bad for being politically correct – ignoring red flags.

      “They can’t call hasan a terrorist without making themselves look bad for being politically correct by ignoring red flags.”

      They seem to think it’s OK for Hasan to be a loyal jihadi. It’s almost like Holder and 0′Bama hate nationalism. Gee. I wonder why?

    Holder and Obama refuse to admit terrorism exists because it runs counter to their narrative that they have made the world a safer place. Al Qaeda has been crushed, there have been no serious attacks on US soil (Boston doesn’t count, only a few whites were killed and the bombers weren’t known to be associated with any terrorist networks), the Arab spring is blossoming (well, mostly), and so on. Yep, Obama and Holder know they’re doing a great job. Excuse me while I go retch…
