Ft Hood attack to be recalled at suspect's hearing - Health - Mental health - msnbc.com
If one concluded that this was not a terrorist attack, would that one be incompetent or simply a liar?

Humor is established as rooted in some truth.
I suspect, without the element of truth there would be no humor at all.

Motivated for Life
Justice Miriam Cedarbaum, while sentencing Faisal Shahzad to life in prison for the botched Times Square car bombing, asked him about swearing to defend Americans when he became a naturalized citizen."I swore but I didn't mean it" he said.
Apparently, Muslims can take an oath and have it mean nothing to them.
When you understand the true nature of Islam, you understand that it is nothing like any other religion. Truth is not what you believe. It is what you believe Allah wants. The Koran tells us what Allah wants. And for that reason, every Christian and Jew has cause to fear Muslims who practice Islam faithfully, abiding by the teachings of the Koran.
- It is not radical to be obedient.
- Obedient Muslims follow the Koran.
- The Koran teaches to kill all Christians and Jews, as "pigs and monkeys", infidels to be slaughtered.
Unfortunately, those "peaceful" verses, long ago abrogated, are no longer valid in Islam today.
This is not radical.
This is Faithful Obedience.
This is The Vision of an Obedient Muslim.
Contrary to what some would like you to believe,
this man is not an enigma.
He is the hallmark of a successful Muslim who sincerely follows the teachings of the Koran
Faithfully practiced Islam
is not good
for America.
"We're at war with the most dangerous enemy that has ever faced mankind in his long climb from the swamp to the stars.
It has been said that if we lose that war, and in so doing lose this way of freedom of ours, history will record with the greatest astonishment, that those who had the most to lose did the least to prevent its happening."
R. Reagan

Global warming is dead. Long live, er, 'Global climate disruption'!
And the coolest (?) part of all? Without man’s interference, none of this would have happened. No warming, no cooling, no change at all. Just Paradise. But without man, who would care?

What is a counterfeit?
If I had a coin and both sides were either heads or tails, but not one of each, would my collection of coins be enhanced? If so, then how?
Except for the "freakish" part which has a certain "sideshow" quality to it, what is it about this "accident" that makes my collection of coins worth as much as it might be, having all coins with heads on one side and tails on the other?
If I found coins like this in my collection, I would conclude that they were not genuine but were, in fact, accidents or counterfeit; but certainly not as intended. And certainly of no use, as such, to the enhancement of my collection.
What about "fake fashion"? Fake Gucci, Armani and the like. Does owning a fake make your attire as valid as that of one who owns the original? Of course, there will be those who prefer the fake quality of their accessories... that may find a certain excitement in having illicit goods. A bit freakish, maybe.
So, what about a same sex relationship, two heads or two tails: does calling itself a marriage make it any less counterfeit to the name and purpose of "marriage" as the word was conceived? Yes, of course it is a relationship. A homosexual relationship; that is to say, a relationship, odd to a purposeful design -counterfeit- and can only be called a marriage if the definition of the word is changed to accommodate this uniqueness, not unlike a freakish find, a counterfeit.
And why would we not just call it something else since it is, in reality, something else? And, if the purpose of heterosexual design is deemed not purposeful at all, as there was no Designer to supply any purpose, then why have a marriage at all? Animals don't have a marriage. They don't need one to behave as animals. It's natural to them to be so.

Clinton condemns Quran-burning plan - CNN.com
Burning the Koran is insensitive. Building the GZ mosque, Cordoba House is insensitive. Christians are asked not to burn the Koran because it will jeopardize American lives. Why? Because when Christians are insulted, as in Cordoba House, they are taught to “turn the other cheek”. In contrast, when Muslims are insulted, even by cartoons, they are instructed in the Koran to kill the offender. Hence the threat to American lives from burning Korans.
The biggest difference between the two teachings? Christianity promotes life and peace; Islam promotes death and conquest.
What do they have in common? Protection under the Constitution of The United States, the country Islam would destroy.
