-
rmy Chief of Staff George Casey
took to the airwaves Sunday to warn the public not to overemphasize
unconfirmed reports about anti-American and religious statements
allegedly made by alleged Fort Hood gunman Major Nidal Hasan. -
Meanwhile, Senator Joseph Lieberman, I-CT, was on Fox news talking all about Hasan's motivations and warning that the attack could be a new model of terrorism on U.S. soil.
"It's
clear that he was, one, under personal stress and, two, if the reports
that we're receiving of various statements he made, acts he took, are
valid, he had turned to Islamist extremism," Lieberman said, "And
therefore, if that is true, the murder of these 13 people was a
terrorist act and, in fact, it was the most destructive terrorist act
to be committed on American soil since 9/11."
