Major Hasan obviously joined the US Army before 911- and the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. Sounds like he could have run into a "mental/ideological conflict" as a result. I understand he did try to get out of the armed forces but was denied due to an agreement to serve a certain amount of time in return for the US Army financing of his education. In the end perhaps he exploded mentally and physically into violence, seeing no way out. Sympathy to all affected.

US needs to open their eyes and start looking at the clues instead of buring our heads in the sand. Terrorism is in our country and we keep masking it and making excuses for these people's actions. Wake up America!
Anderson the prisoners have time? They are doing time.
Karen (san antonio tx). I am in shock with this tragedy..still can believe this happened to our soldiers and in a military base where i take my kids for activities because it's the most safe place... I am a military spouse and my heart goes to the families. At this time we have to pray for our country so noone can listen to the messages this people in the streets of NY are sending out....
GO Philippines. dance! instead of shooting innocent people. why don't you guys try dancing for a change. haha
Have a great weekend Anderson, Erica, Megan, and Bloggers!
Seriously, we should introduce dance or music therapy to American prisons. It's good for people.
Uh...ok...Those are all guys, right? Hmm (thinking).
Good Night Everyone! Enjoy your weekend! May God be with all of us.
At least the prisoners are dancing to decent music – QUEEN!
The dancers are too much!. Have a wonderful weekend!
Sweet dreams.
I can't imagine WHY they would be dancing to "I want to break free"!
this is so funny!
good night all. great show , Anderson. You know you're a fan of those Filipino prisoners!!!!!!! LOL
See, our prisoners can't dress like that.
Anderson, good get with Oprah interview. And, discussing a subject that both of you are so familiar.
The book sounds like a difficult but worthwhile read.
Thank you and good night Anderson, Erica & Team 360. It's been a long week....TGIF and try to havea good weekend.
Good night friends and bloggers TGIF too, and have a greaat weekend.
The shot: Priceless! You two are too funny. And get those costumes!
There has to be more to this than this Major being upset regarding his deployment. Is it possible this officer is an terrorist who was put into our military to commit an act such as this? I am a former us marine now police officer and am absolutely disgusted with this. If he in fact gave a power point presentation condoning suicide bombing then I would have to think that this man has been planning something like this for sometime. New laws need to be established to keep these morons from publicly declaring violence against America. We need change. They should not be allowed to enjoy our first amendment.
@ Jennifer & Cally,
I had never heard that either....that Americans did not like to read about foreign places and names!
this whole affair is grotesque and appalling and a very thorough investigation better be had to answer why and how this disgustingly horrific act came about. combat troops have been suffering for too long – and then this happens? are there words in the english language to describe the sorrow and pain? i think not.
oh the dancing prisoners - those guys are so great! cool tunes and i'll bet they're in great shape too. luv it when we get to see their new stuff. happy friday!
