Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan wanted to be lay Muslim leader at Fort Hood

"Deeply troubled" and "almost incoherent" but Hasan was to be deployed anyway?
The FBI was watching him according to reports. But Hasan was to be deployed anyway?
He was able to get his hands on the guns he used to cause 13 deaths and over 40 wounded. Yet again, this same man was to be deployed with the troops and the military had no problem with this? Hasan's record is coming out because of all he did but what about the ones we don't know about?

Cleric said he sensed Hasan was troubled

FORT HOOD, Texas — An Army psychiatrist who authorities say went on a shooting rampage at Fort Hood was so conflicted over what to tell fellow soldiers about fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan that a local Islamic leader was deeply troubled by it, the leader said Saturday.

Osman Danquah, co-founder of the Islamic Community of Greater Killeen, said he was disturbed by Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan’s persistent questioning and recommended the mosque reject Hasan’s request to become a lay Muslim leader at the sprawling Army post.

Danquah said Hasan never expressed anger toward the Army or indicated any plans for violence, but during the second of two conversations they had over the summer, Hasan seemed almost incoherent, he said.

Keep in mind this was a doctor and trained to take care of the mental health of our troops. He was trained by the military. What was he telling the troops he was supposed to be taking care of? Was he in anyway treating any of the soldiers who ended up taking their own lives or attempting to do it? Above all, keep in mind the same person described above was still allowed to be treating our troops as a psychologist. How was this allowed to happen? Was wasn't he removed from having anything to do with the mental healthcare of our soldiers? Is anyone checking on the state of the mental health of the providers they have treating the troops? Is anyone checking to see if they are trained experts on PTSD to be able to treat this wound of war? How seriously is the military taking this when this was all allowed to happen? What policies do they plan on changing? Do they plan on changing any at all?

There are so many questions when it comes to what happened last week at Fort Hood, but while the carnage is fresh, all that came before needed to be taken seriously and maybe, just maybe, it could have been prevented.
