The Fort Hood Shootings, six years later...

 
The Fort Hood Shootings, six years later...
....and people are still fighting for their benefits.
I guess the issue still comes down to whether it was combat related.  Well, Fox seems to provide enough proof to me that it was combat, whether here or not:
Meanwhile sitting on death row, convicted killer Hasan has drafted a 100-page handwritten document, justifying his extreme religious views and claiming his faith is inconsistent with American democracy.
Written from his high-security prison cell at Fort Leavenworth in Kansas, and reviewed by Fox News, the lengthy document is what one Islamic history expert described as a "plodding" discussion of his personal convictions to justify the November 2009 murders at the Texas Army base.
"This long document constitutes an attempt at ex post facto justification for his killing of 13 people at Ft. Hood ... retroactively lionizing himself as waging jihad (in the cause of Allah),"  Dr. Timothy Furnish, an Islamic history expert, explained. Furnish reviewed the handwritten document, titled "The Purpose of Life: Why Were We Created?" and found no evidence the text contained threats.
Hasan did express regret, but not for the shooting.
Hasan also expressed regret, as he has in the past, for taking an oath as an officer in the U.S. Army. Hasan claimed his military pledge conflicts with his deeply held religious beliefs. "I would like to openly admit my error in taking the oath of office in the first place. It was an unislamic oath to begin with," the former Army major explained. "I repent for entering into this unIslamic (sic) oath and ask our Most-Merciful Lord to forgive me."
And just how alligned with the Jihadis is he?
In his writings, Hasan has left no doubt that the first American targeted for death by the CIA in 2011, Anwar al-Awlaki, was a mentor and spiritual guide.
In August, Hasan pledged his loyalty to ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi while asking to be "made a citizen of the Islamic State."
Yeah, that's great.  He gets 3 hots and a cot while his victims fight for benefits.
