"Let's call Joe Lieberman's bluff. Let's have the Homeland Security Committee hearings. While the Army and the FBI will conduct both criminal invesigations and serious inquiries into why Major Hasan's breakdown was not adequately noted or addressed by his commanders, congressional oversite of the military is always appropriate. So have the hearings. But make them real. There's no need to downplay the fact that Major Hasan was a Muslim, or that he appears to have bought into some of the most extreme -- and broadly rejected -- variants on Islam. There's nothing wrong with asking precise, detailed questions that offer as much explanation and detail as can be accumulated. There is no point in being politically correct -- or in being politically incorrect. Embrace transparency and facts. Bring in experts and ask questions. Ask all the questions. What was the bigger factor motivating Major Hasan: stress or religion?" - Steven Perez from Bookmarklet
