WASHINGTON (November 18, 2009)—U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder said Wednesday he was disturbed to learn of contacts between accused Fort Hood gunman Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan and a radical imam overseas.
Holder is testifying Wednesday before the Senate Judiciary Committee.
When lawmakers asked him about the deadly shooting on Nov. 5 at Fort Hood’s Soldier Readiness Center, Holder said the government is conducting a thorough review of Hasan's background to determine if internal warning signs were missed before the shooting.
On the basis of what he knows now, the attorney general says, he found the contacts between Hasan and the imam "disturbing."
Investigators have said e-mails between Hasan and the imam did not advocate or threaten violence.
Holder said investigators are still gathering evidence in the case.

Send Him To His Virgins!!! I'll Furnish the Bullets and the Weapon, I'll Even Pull The Trigger until The Clip is EMPTY.
I hope the AG and many others ARE CONCERNED and prevent this from happening in the future. If we suspect someone is a traitor, no matter what his race or religion, then he should be investigated, relieved from duty, and jailed until his court-marshall. Evidently lots of people were suspicious of him, and some even knew of his terrorist contacts, and yet everyone turned their head because of his name. This sorry individual willingly signed up for the U.S. Army, then willingly took U.S. money and U.S. education, then he turned around and contacted terrorists and killed Americans. He is a traitor and murderer, and deserves whatever punishment they can throw at him.
This is the same Eric Holder who wants the confessed mastermind of the 9-11 attacks to have citizenship rights and be tried as a criminal not a TERRORIST..He is nothing but words just like his puppetmaster Barack..If you believe anything that he says your an IDIOT!!
