" Whether you believe imagine a dollar solace that -- spree -- Muslim extremists or misstate you cracked in the face of imminent deployment to Afghanistan war. All of those things there -- certainly enough disturbing questions about the man who allegedly perpetrated the Fort -- massacre to keep investigators busy for a long time and I believe. The president is right to ask congress to stay out of this. Wait until the courts do their probing the FBI Texas Rangers aren't US army. Let him convict this guy's sentence and and then Joe Lieberman can hold his grandstanding I hearings and all the rest of -- I think there are questions to answer. But I brought reinforcements on the previous issue I've got Doug Kennedy our Doug Kennedy and -- was gonna talk about whether -- found was that Qaeda or crazy. But Doug first on the issue of trying -- he's -- over."
" I gotta go after after an -- and end wants this guy to be al-Qaeda she's she needs this guy in the telephone I'm hopeful that these guys al-Qaeda because if he is. This just expose is they're there incompetence. I mean you know that the guy's a major in the US army he's about to go to the war -- he could've killed. Thousands of people."
" It's. He did pretty good to me out not out yet hey listen he EM in his Alomar -- men's program hardworking. -- people who were who were about to go but he."
" If we -- have somebody of of that of that stature. In al-Qaeda we could've done so much damage this guy could have killed thousands of people and and and this is just. Did that. I did this exposes I don't think that was the reinforcement anywhere lowdown on -- out. Yeah should really think about any real this guy -- top."
" But there -- if this is terror that -- the point of terrorism is to make this quake in our boots as a country as we did on 9/11."
" This shocks us appalled knows this is the site go light can you know okay so what what I like Colin -- Obama captured not. We just on the level of making -- terrorizing."
" Here's I think that this is great getting killed thirteen rather than not not -- I'm not an. -- coming -- out but our position is it would have been very easy to keep him from killing a single person. If the military had not been so vastly consumes so politically correct -- as for example I mean just during the World Series a few weeks ago they Don holds two white guys out of the collar -- guard to perform at the World Series it was a wasn't diverse -- Put in a girl one of Pakistan's."
" Of the army the -- perfectly integrated agency the United States government we have. But the other position on Nadal son as a terrorist threat yeah I don't they and then let them if any if I -- correct it we didn't -- weaken our boots the 9/11 you ticked us off major and you woke a sleeping giant and you're gonna get."
" Trouble and and that's -- that is exactly that is exactly the attitude I think we should have about this guy yet that did this guy should not be."
" But -- as and wants him to be raised to the level of."
" Terrorizing our company please -- with god as a -- the first time I've ever agreed not entitled to right --"
" We -- all -- I bring our bring another voice our ability parents directs the future terrorism project. For the Washington based Foundation for the Defense of Democracies. -- that the -- zeroed an expert person I don't know your religious background but do you think Nadal fond. Is -- terrorists -- more importantly do you believe even if he is self taught. And his hatred comes from within and -- he never had any contact with any one from any recognized terror organization. Does his act his murderous mass murdering act does that represent an escalation of the terror war."
" Well he's certainly if someone who thought about it evident that we have so far is for the previous eight years he has made statements. He had the same time also. When he acted -- acted on behalf of an ideology. If he's cycle or not we will see. But at the end of the data that's coming in the framework of other cases you cannot just remove it and say while this is the only person. That have ever attacked us we had the North Carolina found two cases in New York. We had one shooting against two. Other minutes in Arkansas one was that so. You have to look at this frame of on the one hand and then look at what the actual ideological motives of python regardless of his psychological state at the time. But I --"
