Islamophobe David Gaubatz claims:
Israel has endured ‘suicide/attacks’ similar to this for many years. Malik Nabal Hasan is a terrorist supporting the ideology of Al Qaeda, Hamas, Hezbollah, and yes, CAIR. In Palestine, the leaders send out the young and vulnerable to carry out the murders in the name of Islam. The same is happening in America.Gaubatz is spewing a Zionist "big lie."
In the history of the Israel-Palestine conflict, the incident most similar to Ft. Hood albeit with some significant differences is the February 24, 1994 Ibrahimi Mosque Massacre in which fanatic Jewish-American West Bank settler IDF Major Dr. Baruch Goldstein slaughtered 39-52 Palestinians during a prayer service.
In Confronting Nidal Malik Hassan's Erstwhile "Martyrdom", Zionist Islamophobe Andrew Bostom tries to argue that Islam encourages Muslims to kill non-Muslims execution-style. The claim seems to be some form of Zionist psychological projection. I know of no case of a Palestinian that has killed Zionist Jews execution-style, but in a famous atrocity former IDF soldier Ami Popper killed seven Palestinians execution-style in 1991.
The US media, in which American Jews are disproportionately involved, has focused obsessively on Hassan's Palestinian and Muslim background. Yet American news organizations are studiously ignoring both the case of American Jewish terrorist and murder Yaakov Teitel and also that of Hijab Murderer Alexander Wiens, who is probably of Russian Jewish extraction.
Just imagine how much coverage a German Turk would have received in the US media if he had brutally killed a young Orthodox Jewish shtirntikhl (Jewish hijab) wearing mother in a German court.
Most of the coverage of the Ft. Hood killings has been nonsense as Salon pundit Glenn Greenwald wrote in "A media orgy of rumors, speculation and falsehoods".
In "The media's silly Fort Hood coverage" Mark Benjamin elaborated Greenwald's point
- by addressing the long standing signs of Hasan's psychological disturbance and
- by explaining with commonsense analysis why Army medicine dropped the ball
Even though former WSJ reporter Asra Nomani usually produces good journalism, e.g., Asra Nomani on Aasiya Beheading, she has contributed to the dysfunctional media coverage. Possibly because of her relationship with the late Daniel Pearl, she has a tendency to confuse piety with extremism.
In addition, as an Indian-origin Muslim Asra may have some issues with Muslims of Arab background.
In Inside the Gunman's Mosque, Asra finds sinister extremism in a fairly typical semantic dispute between a Bangladeshi Muslim scholar and an Arabic-speaking Muslim:
As a point of reference, the Jewish concept equivalent to jihad is milhemet mitsvah, which is literally war by commandment and unlike jihad means holy war in practically all contexts.
A milhemet mitsvah is far harder to interpret metaphorically than jihad is. Since 1947 all Zionist aggressions including the recent Gaza Rampage have been declared milhemot mitsvah (Jewish holy wars) by the Israeli Rabbinate.
Jewish Zionists have drained the concept of extremism of all meaning. Zionists believe that Jews have the right to plunder and to kill with impunity on the basis of an etymological relation between the word "Jew" and the word "Judea." Zionism is so extreme that it is murderously psychotic.
Over the last 10 years extremist Jewish Zionists often motivated by religion are responsible for slaughters numbering millions and expulsions numbering in the 10s of millions.
During the same time period the comparable numbers for "extremist" Muslim groups are approximately 10-20,000 killed and possibly a few hundred thousand refugees (by a very loose definition of expulsion). In many cases the Muslim violence has often resulted from politics orchestrated by extremist Jewish Zionists. (According to Jewish ethical concepts, Jewish Zionists have committed the most grievous sin of "lifnei iver" or putting a stumbling block before the blind.)
Besides enmeshment in Zionist casuistry about extremism, Asra has some confusion about the nature of belief:
Jewish Zionists have poisoned the American system of multiple overlapping identities because they conflate religion with Zionist ethnonationalism and expect Jews treasonously to act on behalf of the Jewish people (and not on behalf of God) even to the detriment of US interests.
Not only have Zionists successfully spread this idea among Jews, but they have even created a new form of Zionism for Jewish and non-Jewish fellow travelers as well as another form of Zionism for useful idiots.
Fellow traveler Zionism is Friedmanism, which combines traditional Eastern European exploitative business practices with Zionist concepts of ethnonational financial warfare.
Useful idiot Zionism is Christian Islamophobia, which creates a morons' crusade against Islam so that stupid Christians can feel good about supporting Zionist genocidalism.
Together the three core forms of Zionism have done tremendous damage to American politics, American foreign policy, the American economy, the American government, the American legal system, and the American media.
Military Veterans and Foreign Affairs Journal Staff Writer Gordon Duff goes right to the the heart of the issue when he writes in SCAPEGOATING ISLAM BECAUSE WE ARE TOTALLY SCREWED UP AIN'T GONNA WORK:
American national psychosis will continue and worsen unless subversive Jewish Zionist influence over the US government is purged, a lot of American Zionists go to jail for aid to Zionist terrorism, and the USA begins dealing with the Islamic world on terms of mutual respect and equality.

In Inside the Gunman's Mosque, Asra finds sinister extremism in a fairly typical semantic dispute between a Bangladeshi Muslim scholar and an Arabic-speaking Muslim:
Not long ago, inside the quiet library of the Muslim Community Center here in Silver Spring, Maryland, a suburb of Washington, D.C., Golam Akhter, a local Bangladeshi-American civil engineer, 67, got into a fierce debate with a young Muslim doctor over how to interpret the concept of “jihad” within Islam. Akhter argued, “Jihad means an inner struggle, fighting against corruption and injustice.”Hasan's explanation seems more like common sense than like extremism.
The young doctor responded. “That’s not a correct interpretation. Jihad means holy war. When your religion isn’t safe, you have to fight for it. If someone attacks you, you must fight them. That is jihad. You can kill someone who is harming you.”

It’s critical that we ditch the concept of the “ummah” with a capital “U” and recognize that we are an “ummah” with a small “u,” meaning our religious identity doesn’t have to supersede other loyalties and identities. This attempt to push an “Ummah” is the politics of ideologues of puritanical Islam who want to mollify dissent. Sadly, too many moderates have bought into it. We aren’t monolithic, and we shouldn’t try to be. Look at al Qaeda, the Taliban and Pakistani militant groups: They don’t have a problem with killing Muslims, slaying Muslims in attacks from Amman, Jordan, to Islamabad, Pakistan.A person, who truly believes in God, will obviously put his duties to God before all else, and the American system acknowledges that a citizen may have a religious identity and a national identity. Because God has yet to let us know his position on US national policies, Muslims cannot know for a certainty that their religious identity conflicts with American identity.

The American system has become a lie. Despite fundamental American ideals, not only does the US government domestically treat Jews, non-Muslim gentiles and Muslims according to different laws, rules, and regulations, but it has also given the State of Israel untouchable "Israel can do no wrong" status while the Zionist state perpetrates ever greater outrages on the native Palestinian population. As a result anti-US hostility is growing throughout the world with potentially disastrous economic consequences while the USA is evincing signs of something like national cognitive dissonance.Today, in Tampa, Fla, a Navy reservist tried to murder a Greek Orthodox priest from Crete as a "terrorist." The reservist claimed the non-Arabic speaking Greek had yelled "Allah Akbar." (God is Great) When arrested, Naval Reservist Jason D. Bruce told police the priest had tried to rob him. Thus, America's honor is defended again. Two idiotic wars, two phony invasions and lots of hate crimes, the number, we will never know. We do know 99% of what we hear is lies. Vietnam was a lie. Iraq was a lie and Americans are dying in Afghanistan over more lies. Perhaps we could spread the hate out a bit. We seem to have so much of it.
American national psychosis will continue and worsen unless subversive Jewish Zionist influence over the US government is purged, a lot of American Zionists go to jail for aid to Zionist terrorism, and the USA begins dealing with the Islamic world on terms of mutual respect and equality.
