Remember the Alamo, Remember Fort Hood

Three days after the Fort Hood massacre that left 14 people dead and 32 injured on November 5, 2009 Army Chief of Staff Gen. George Casey told George Stephanopolous on ABC This Week that “…what happened at Fort Hood was a tragedy but I believe it would be an even greater tragedy if our diversity becomes a casualty here.”

One year and a few days later, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff avoided publicly acknowledging the real problem as well. However, Adm. Mike Mullen’s attempt to walk a politically correct tightrope has landed him in hot water. Mullen decided to identify unnamed mullahs as being “uneducated” about the Qur’an and thereby responsible for poisoning their uneducated subjects who are not getting an honest interpretation of the Qur’an. Again, the implication is that there is nothing in the Qur’an that advocates violence.

As military brass continues to trip over themselves before choking on their own feet, Americans are getting increasingly angry with their political leaders for not leveling with them when it comes to this very real threat. On November 21st, highly qualified individuals will be in Killeen, TX to honor the victims of the Fort Hood massacre by telling the public what our leaders will not – the truth. Here is a commercial airing days before the memorial. The voice is that of Texas talk show host Lynn Woolley, who will also be the Emcee of the memorial.

That is why, on November 21st the International Counter-Terrorism Officers Association (ICTOA) has decided to be the primary sponsor of the Forum for Middle East Understanding’s (FFMU) Fort Hood Memorial Service at the Killeen Civic Center.

Speaking at the memorial will be highly qualified men who will tell you what your country’s political and military leaders will not. Among them will be Ret. Delta Force Gen. William “Gerry” Boykin, former Muslim terrorists Walid Shoebat and Kamal Saleem, and Robert Spencer, the founder of Jihad Watch.

As the billboards for the event say, “Diversity starts with the truth.”
