The thick-bearded, white-robed Aulaqi, who was born in New Mexico, served as an imam at two mosques attended by three of the Sept. 11, 2001, hijackers -- Virginia's Dar al-Hijra and another in California. Aulaqi, who is in his late 30s, is also fluent in Arabic. U.S. officials have accused him of working with al-Qaeda networks in the Persian Gulf after leaving Northern Virginia. In mid-2006, he was detained in Yemen, his ancestral homeland, at the request of U.S. authorities. He was released in December 2007.
Explaining why he wrote on his Web site that Hasan was a "hero," According to Shaea, Aulaqi said: "I blessed the act because it was against a military target. And the soldiers who were killed were not normal soldiers, but those who were trained and prepared to go to Afghanistan and Iraq."
Aulaqi said Hasan's alleged shooting spree was allowed under Islam because it was a form of jihad. "There are some people in the United States who said this shooting has nothing to do with Islam, that it was not permissible under Islam," he said, according to Shaea. "But I would say it is permissible. . . . America was the one who first brought the battle to Muslim countries."
Of course, Barack Obama will ignore this Washington Post article.
And, he will proceed with his plan to put the Bush Administration on trial in the guise of the KSM Trial.
Obama will continue to treat our enemies with kindness, while treating those who have protected us with malice.
Almost as if he hated America himself.

Any candidate who repeats vain campaign promises and wins as a result, will bear the wrath of an angry public and disillusioned media for his last three years in office
Pastorius,
Isn't it astounding how these hate mongers are able to blame their aggression on the people whom they attack? Its not like the bombings of the American embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, or the attack on the U.S Coal, or both attacks on the World Trade center, happened before we attacked Afghanistan. Oh wait, they did. Yet these people have the gall to blame us on their aggression when we were simply defending ourselves.
