...prejudging the case before the investigation is concluded, President Obama said on Nov. 14 that "if there was a failure to take appropriate action before the shootings, there must be accountability." Investigators have asked at least one classmate why he didn't file a formal complaint if he was upset by Hasan's comments. "I said, 'Sir, why should I have to when the faculty heard all of these things firsthand?' " the classmate says. "We shouldn't have had to say anything because these were all classroom assignments."

"I raised my hand and asked, 'Why are you letting this...
Evidence has surfaced that Hassan had been previously troubled by the accounts of war veterans who served in Iraq and Afghanistan. Records further indicate that he had been upset about being assigned to Afghanistan, possibly due to his religious beliefs. Still, media and government officials should refrain from jumping to conclusions concerning the role of Maj. Hassan’s religious background in this incident. Some rashly speculated that this was an organized terrorist attack, but such claims have since been disproved. Sen. Joseph Lieberman, for instance, suggested that Hassan had become extremist in his views. Whether this drove...
