Fort Hood shooting
LocationFort Hood, Texas,
United States
DateNovember 5, 2009
ca. 1:34 p.m. (CST)
Attack type
Mass shooting
Deaths13[1]
Injured30[1]

The Fort Hood shooting occurred on November 5, 2009, at Fort Hood in Killeen, Texas, the largest American military base in the world. A gunman opened fire in the Soldier Readiness Center, killing 13 people and wounding 30 others.[2]

U.S. Army psychiatrist Major Nidal Malik Hasan, the alleged gunman, was shot four times by civilian police officers and was seriously injured. Following the incident, Hasan was hospitalized, on a ventilator, under heavy guard.[3]

Shootings

Killeen, Texas, the location of the Fort Hood army post

Hasan entered his workplace, the Soldier Readiness Center—where personnel receive routine medical treatment immediately prior to and on return from deployment—at approximately 1:34 pm (CST). According to eyewitnesses he opened fire with two handguns: an FN Five-seven semi-automatic pistol and a .357 Magnum Smith & Wesson revolver,[4] on a crowd gathered 30 minutes before a scheduled college graduation ceremony.[5] At the start of the attack, Hasan reportedly jumped up on a desk and shouted "Allahu Akbar!"[3][6][7][8] before allegedly firing more than 100 rounds in the soldier processing center.[9] A medic who treated Hasan said the pockets of his combat fatigues were full of pistol magazines.[10]

Thirteen people (eleven soldiers and two civilians) were killed—eleven people died at the scene, and two died later at the hospital.[11][12] Thirty others were wounded before Hasan was shot at least four times by a local police officer, Sergeant Kimberly Munley, who was herself shot by Hasan.[3] Munley is being hailed as a hero for having been the first to engage Hasan and for having drawn his attention away from a wounded soldier he was apparently on the verge of shooting dead.[13]

Munley, who was doing maintenance on her patrol car nearby, arrived on the scene within three minutes of receiving the report of an emergency at the center. Upon arrival, she encountered the shooter exiting the building in pursuit of a wounded soldier. Munley and Hasan exchanged shots. Munley was hit three times; twice through the left leg and once in her right wrist which knocked her to the ground. Hasan charged at the prone officer as the two continued to exchange shots. In the meantime, civilian police officer Mark Todd arrived and began to fire at Hasan. Hasan was hit and felled by shots from both Todd and Munley, ending the shooting spree.[14][15]

The incident lasted for about 10 minutes with the shooter reportedly firing about 100 shots.[16] Contrary to initial reports, the shooter was not killed in the incident, rather he was hospitalized in stable condition.[1] Initially, three soldiers were believed to have been involved in the shooting; two soldiers were detained but subsequently released. The Fort Hood website posted a notice that indicated that the shooting was not a drill. Immediately after the shooting, the base and surrounding areas, including a number of local schools, were locked down with military police and SWAT teams. The lockdown lasted about five hours and by 7 p.m. local time was lifted.[17] In addition, FBI agents were called in from Austin and Waco,[18] and Texas Rangers were dispatched.[19] United States President Barack Obama was briefed on the incident, White House press secretary Robert Gibbs told reporters. Obama later held a press conference about the shooting.[1]

Victims

By the evening of November 6, 2009, there were 43 casualties including 13 dead (11 soldiers and two army civilian employees), and 30 wounded.[1][2] Ten of the survivors—all with gunshot wounds—were treated at Scott & White Memorial Hospital, a Level 1 trauma center in Temple, Texas.[20] Seven more wounded victims were taken to Metroplex Adventist Hospital in Killeen.[20]

Major Nidal Malik Hasan was a 39-year-old U.S. Army psychiatrist at the time of the shooting. In July 2009 he had been transferred to Fort Hood from Washington's Walter Reed Medical Center.[1] He is currently the sole suspect in the shooting. Hasan had come to the attention of federal authorities at least six months before the attacks because of Internet postings he may have made discussing suicide bombings[29] and other threats.[30]

Early life and education

Hasan described himself as being of Palestinian descent.[31] His parents emigrated to the United States from al-Bireh, a city in the West Bank territory north of Jerusalem.[32][33] He was born in Arlington, Virginia[34] and raised in Virginia.

Hasan attended William Fleming High School in Roanoke, Virginia.[35] He joined the army immediately after high school and served 8 years as an enlisted soldier while attending college. Hasan graduated from Virginia Tech with a bachelor's degree in biochemistry and went on to medical school at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences.[36] After earning his medical degree (M.D.) in 2001, he completed his residency in psychiatry at Walter Reed Army Medical Center.[37] In 2009, he completed a fellowship in Disaster and Preventive Psychiatry at the Center for Traumatic Stress.[38]

According to some sources, Hasan is single with no children.[39][40] David Cook, a former neighbor, said two sons were living with Hasan around 1997 and they attended local schools. Cook said of him, "As far as I know, he was a single father. I never saw a wife."[31] According to military records, Hasan was unmarried.[41]

Hasan's parents died in 1998 and 2001. According to his cousin, these deaths caused him to become more religiously devout.[33]


Recent events

Hasan was promoted from Captain to Major in May 2009.[38][42] Before being transferred to Fort Hood in July 2009, Hasan had received a poor performance evaluation.[30] While an intern at Walter Reed, Hasan received counseling and extra supervision.[43]


It has been reported by Christian Science monitor that there is a debate goin on in America .Wether the Gunman was suffering from ' combat-related stress' eventhough not invovled in any war ,'but he would have treated and counseled many combat veterans physically broken and mentally battered by war.“Imagine every day trying to help young men and women somehow put their lives back together despite their night terrors, flashbacks, and chronic sleeplessness,” writes psychologist and full-time therapist Todd Essig. “While you reach out to help, they mistrust your every move and respond with hair-trigger tempers, not to mention all the physical symptoms, alienation, and hopelessness. Surrounded by thoughts of suicide — and homicide — you try and keep faith with the honor and challenge of providing care.”'.[44]

According to Hasan's aunt, Noel Hasan of Falls Church, Virginia, he had sought for several years to receive a discharge, because of harassment relating to his Islamic faith.[45] An army spokesman could not confirm the aunt's statement,[46] and the deputy director of American Muslim Armed Forces and Veterans Affairs released a statement calling the report "inconsistent" with their records.[47]

Hasan had come to the attention of federal authorities at least six months before the attacks because of internet postings he may have made discussing suicide bombings[29] and other threats. However, it remains unclear whether he was the author of the posts, and no official investigation was opened.[30] The postings, made in the name "NidalHasan," likened a suicide bomber to a soldier who throws himself on a grenade to save his colleagues and sacrificing his life for a "more noble cause."[29]

According to retired Colonel Terry Lee, "He said maybe Muslims should stand up and fight against the aggressor. At first we thought he meant help the armed forces, but apparently that wasn't the case. Other times he would make comments we shouldn't be in the war in the first place."[48]

During a psychiatry fellowship at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, Hasan told students "I'm a Muslim first and an American second," according to a fellow student interviewed by the Los Angeles Times, Lt. Col. Val Finnell. Finnell said that while other students' projects focused on topics such as water contamination, Hasan's project dealt with the "whether the war on terror is a war against Islam."[29]

Hasan was to be deployed, to Afghanistan, contrary to earlier reports that he was to go to Iraq[49] on November 28. According to Jeff Sadoski, spokesperson of U.S. Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison, "Hasan was upset about his deployment".[50] Hasan's cousin, Nader Hasan, a lawyer in Virginia, said that Nidal Hasan turned against the wars after hearing the stories of those who came back from Afghanistan and Iraq.[51] Noel Hamad said, however, that the family did not know he was being sent to Afghanistan. "He didn't tell us he was going to deploy," she said.[52]

Faizul Khan, the former imam of a mosque in Silver Spring, Maryland, where Hasan prayed several times a week, said he was "a reserved guy with a nice personality. We discussed religious matters. He was a fairly devout Muslim."[31]

According to his cousin, Nidal Hasan was a practicing Muslim who had become more devout after the deaths of his parents in 1998 and 2001.[33] However, his cousin did not recall him ever expressing any radical or anti-American views.[33] The cousin claimed that Hasan had been harassed by his army colleagues because of his Middle Eastern ethnicity. Said the cousin, "He was dealing with some harassment from his military colleagues. I don’t think he’s ever been disenchanted with the military. It was the harassment. He hired a military attorney to try to have the issue resolved, pay back the government, to get out of the military. He was at the end of trying everything."[53]

A convenience store security video reportedly showed Hasan wearing a salwar kameez, a traditional South Asian outfit.[54][55] Additionally, the morning of the shooting Hasan gave away furniture from his home, saying he was going to be deployed on Friday. He also was handing out copies of the Quran.[56]

Hassan was placed under guard in Brooke Army Medical Center's intensive care unit and his condition was described as "stable".[57] News reports on the morning of November 7, 2009, indicated that Nidal Hasan was "in a coma", although it is not clear if the coma was medically induced or not.[58]

Reaction

In the hours immediately after the shooting, other American military bases stepped up their security measures.[59][60][61]

Lieutenant General Robert W. Cone, commander of III Corps at Fort Hood, called the attack "a terrible tragedy, stunning", saying the base community was "absolutely devastated."[62] A spokesman for the Defense Department called the shooting an "isolated and tragic case"[63] and Defense Secretary Robert Gates said, "I can pledge that the Department of Defense will do everything in its power to help the Fort Hood community get through these difficult times."[64] The chair of the Senate Armed Services Committee, Carl Levin, said "Our hearts go out to the families of the brave Americans who lost their lives in today's senseless violence at Fort Hood, Texas, and to those who were injured."[64]

President Barack Obama, Vice President Joe Biden, and former President George W. Bush (who also once served as governor of Texas) all issued statements of support and sympathy for the victims, as did other prominent American politicians. Obama described the incident as "tragic" and "a horrific outburst of violence" while noting that it was "difficult enough when we lose these brave men and women abroad, but it is horrifying that they should come under fire at an army base on U.S. soil."[1] His statement was preceded by one from Vice-President Joe Biden who said "Jill and I join the President and Michelle in expressing our sympathies to the families of the brave soldiers who fell today. We are all praying for those who were wounded and hoping for their full and speedy recovery."[65] Former President Bush said he "was saddened to learn of the tragic incident at Fort Hood. Laura and I are keeping the victims and their families in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time."[66] Texas Senators Kay Bailey Hutchison and John Cornyn each issued messages expressing their shock and sympathy at the shooting.[18][67]

The Council on American-Islamic Relations condemned the shooting, expressing prayers for the victims and condolences for their families.[68][69]

A few terrorism experts including Michael Scheuer, the former head of the CIA's Osama bin Laden Issue Station, have labeled the event as a terrorist attack. Expert scholar Walid Phares described it as "the largest single terror act in America since 9/11." [70] On November 6, 2009, General Barry McCaffrey stated on Anderson Cooper 360° that "... it's starting to appear as if this was a domestic terrorist attack on fellow soldiers by a major in the Army who we educated for six years while he was giving off these vibes of disloyalty to his own force."[71]

Gun politics

A FN Five-seven, one of the models of handguns used in the attack.

The FN Five-seven pistol used in the shooting was purchased at a civilian gun store, Guns Galore, in Killeen, Texas.[3] Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence president Paul Helmke claimed that "This latest tragedy, at a heavily fortified army base, ought to convince more Americans to reject the argument that the solution to gun violence is to arm more people with more guns in more places."[72] However, the soldiers attacked were not in possession of any guns at the time, and were unable to return fire.[4] One soldier working at the Readiness Center expressed the opinion that the Army's policy of disarming soldiers on domestic military installations had left them unnecessarily vulnerable to violent assaults: "Overseas you are ready for it. But here you can't even defend yourself."[5]


Alegged Harrasment and Discrimination

There have been several satement made by Family Members said that Nidal reported by the ABC that he was 'constantly harassed by others in the military and was called a "camel jockey,".'.Prior to the Incident.[73]
