1.What is the point in having world’s best listening post,NSA, when Elint is not used properly?
2.Typical governmental apathy in not letting the right hand know what the left does, and starting the blame game!
3.Once the information about the suspect has been received action should have been taken ,not withstanding his records and early back ground check.
4.Yet another instance of faith transcending National loyalty!What the apologists for Muslims are going to say who have been saying fingerprinting or profiling Muslims by Homeland Security/FBI is racist, on this issue?

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. intelligence agencies learned an Army psychiatrist contacted an Islamist sympathetic to al Qaeda and they relayed the information to authorities before the man allegedly went on a shooting spree that killed 13 people in Texas last week, U.S. officials said on Monday.
While the agencies were monitoring contacts by Anwar al-Awlaki, a fiery, anti-American cleric in Yemen who sympathized with al Qaeda, they came across some communications late last year with the shooting suspect, Major Nidal Malik Hasan, U.S. government officials said.
They said the information was given to federal authorities who determined that Hasan’s writings were largely consistent with his academic work, offering no hint that he was planning an attack or was following orders from anyone
