Shooting At Ft.Hood

[Evil_Maniac From Mars]

This is more telling of shell shock than of Islam.

If I recall correctly, it is necessary to see combat to have shell shock.

Right.
When a normal american goes nuts and kills people he has psychological problems
When a muslim american goes nuts and kills people he was idealogical driven.

He was even serving in the american army - how do you connect that with your idealogy.

No, his religion is of no consequence unless he made statements to the effect that his religion did play a role, which Hasan did. Ergo, the logical conclusion from past comments made by Hasan is that his faith did play a role. This doesn't mean all Muslims are like this, but it does mean he was motivated in part by radical Islam, or at least used it as an excuse. If we want to understand the shooting, that is just as relevant as any psychological disorders he may or may not have had.
