REMEMBER, IT WAS ONLY WORKPLACE VIOLENCE – AT 7:46 A.M. ET:   Remember Major Hasan, the misunderstood Army psychiatrist who murdered 13 people at Fort Hood in 2009 while screaming a radical Islamic oath?  He has a new request.  From London's Daily Mail: 

The former Army psychiatrist who killed 13 people in the 2009 shooting spree at Fort Hood has said it would be 'an honor' to join the caliphate in a letter to ISIS, it has been reported.

Nidal Hasan has apparently requested to be made a 'citizen soldier' of the caliphate in the letter to Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

Hasan opened fire on his fellow servicemen and women on November 5, killing 13 and injuring 30 others.

He was shot and paralyzed from the waist down in the resulting gunfire and was sentenced to death last year.

Earlier this year FBI Director James Comey testified that he believed the shooting carried out by Hasan at Fort Hood in Texas was inspired by al-Qaeda.

The federal government has termed the attack an incidence of 'workplace violence,' saying that the home-grown Hasan didn't meet the legal definition of an international terrorist.

What a farce.

In an undated letter, obtained by Fox News, Hasan reportedly requests to be made a 'citizen' of the Islamic State.

He goes on to say it would be 'an honor for any believer to be an obedient citizen soldier to a people and its leader who don't compromise the religion of All-Mighty Allah to get along with the disbelievers.'

COMMENT:  No, I think not.  Unless Obama goes completely batty, which is a distinct possibility, Hasan will probably have to face the music for what he did.   But, you know, the Islamic State could probably benefit from his psychiatric services.

Is it really possible that no one noticed this man's proclivities before he shot up Fort Hood?  Or were they not encouraged to notice by the Obama administration?
