FORT HOOD (November 8, 2009)—The Army psychiatrist authorities say opened fired at Fort Hood killing 13 people has been taken off a ventilator, but remains under guard in intensive care at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio.

Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan was in critical, but stable condition Sunday, said Col. John Rossi.

He was transferred to the Army hospital Friday from Scott & White Hospital in Temple.

Col. John Rossi said he is not sure if Hasan is able to communicate.

An FBI spokesman said no motive has been established for the shooting spree.

Hasan was shot at least four times in an exchange of gunfire with civilian police officers, who are credited with ending what could have been an even deadlier attack, Thursday.

Military investigators, and federal, state and local law enforcement officers continue to process evidence from the scene of the shootings, officials said.

I condemn what this man did, but the man had something evil take over his brain. Could he have been possessed by demons? I even wonder if when he is finally fully conscious, if he will even remember doing it. Also...worth mentioning is that he has made comments previously that should have been red flags. How come no one did anything about them prior to him taking lives of our soldiers? What soldier, after hearing such comments, would want to go to battle with him and have to worry about getting shot in the back?

I want this musl1m to live & go to trial & then to his punishment. That's fair, isn't it? This guy should have been investigated & dealt with before he got to the point of destroying innocent lives. God have mercy on his soul.

As much as I would like to see this scumbag not spend the rest of his life locked up in the looney bin at the US military's expense, I don't want him to become a martyr for Islam either ... and to Anon: nice article, thanks for sharing. God bless you Ft Hood, our hearts, prayers and thoughts are with you. Hooah!
