It’s not terrorism, Panetta said so.

Shock of Shocks, the Pentagon now says it will not reclassify the Fort Hood shootings as a terrorist attack over concern about biasing the case against the gunman.

In rejecting the victim’s pleas, Defense Secretary Panetta’s spokesman cited concern that having the government weigh in could “bias” the case against Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, who is awaiting trial for killing 13 people and wounding 29 others.

Yeah, I can see how it wouldn’t be appropriate now. Maybe they should have thought about that three years ago when it first happened. It seemed everyone else knew it was an act of terror, everyone that is except this administration. Then again, that never really fit their narrative.

Things would be so much easier if we didn’t think for ourselves and just gratefully accepted manna that is being spoon-fed from on high.

It should be noted that Major Hasan had previously asked al-Qaeda terrorist leader Anwar al-Awlaki for religious advice, such as whether a soldier who "died while attacking fellow soldiers" would be a martyr. When this information was forwarded to the FBI terrorism task forces, they determined that Hasan was not a threat and that his questions to al-Awlaki were consistent with his “medical research.”

After the shooting, Awlaki quickly declared Hasan a hero, as "fighting against the U.S. army is an Islamic duty."

Nope, no terrorism hear folks, move along.
