PHILADELPHIA, PA / November 12, 2009 / DIVERSE NEWS / — Never before in the history of murder in the U.S., has there been such a buttering over to the minds of Americans by the media.
The only major network that seems to be concerned about the reporting is Fox News. Fair and balanced.
Not calling Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan a terrorist was nothing more than political correctness run amok. So, what do we call him?
Answer: We must call him a psychiatrist.
Now that we have found out, via English News, that he was communicating with al Qaeda, the media is still not giving it the ‘feel’ of true terrorism. It’s like the media has been using psychiatry on us.
This is what political correctness does: takes away the true meaning of something in order to not put select groups in a negative light.
al Qaeda certainly does not give out membership cards or photo ID’s identifying their members. Since Maj. Hasan is suspected of perpetrating mass carnage, which is aligned with the group whom he had communicated with atleast one member, it would be proper for the mainstream media to call him an ‘al Qaeda-aligned’ operative, without the membership card.
Now that Maj. Nadal had been charged with 13 murders, (see NYDN video below)
I am wondering what his defense is going to be? Don’t forget, he is a licensed psychiatrist and represents that profession. Will they go all out to make him look incompetent or insane, with a ton of expert witnesses to back that defense to protect the profession?
