The Fort Hood massacre, on Nov. 5, 2009, which left 13 dead and 32 wounded, could have been prevented. Evidence of accused killer Nidal Hasan¿s growing drift toward violent Islamist extremism was on full display during his military medical training, although his superiors took no punitive action. He suggested Muslim Americans in the U.S. military might be prone to commit fratricide. But, a slipshod FBI invest. into Hasan, coupled with internal disagreements and flaws in the agency¿s intelligence operations also contributed to the government¿s failure to prevent the attack. This report tracks Hasan¿s growing radicalization in the years before the attack and the numerous failures of the military to take action against him. A print on demand report.

Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee Chairman Joe Lieberman, ID-Conn., and Ranking Member Susan Collins, R-Me., Tuesday said they planned to work to close vulnerabilities at the Department of Defense (DoD) and the FBI that prevented the two agencies from averting the deadly Fort Hood massacre, which left 13 people murdered and 32 others wounded on November 5, 2009.The Senators underscored the fact that they believe a major vulnerability is a failure to acknowledge the true enemy explicitly as violent Islamist extremism.At a hearing to examine the findings and recommendations contained in the Senators' investigatory report on the Fort Hood terrorist attack, Lieberman and Collins asked expert witnesses for their views on how to combat the ideology that fuels violent Islamist extremism and how to correct the negligence, missed communications, and failure to share information at the two federal agencies leading up to the attack.
