We can add an eighth salient fact about Hasan that he shared with the 9/11 attackers: days before his martyrdom attack (indeed he expected to die) at Ft Hood he visited a titty-bar not far from the base at least three times in the past month.

In my article George Sodini and Muslim Terrorists I wrote: "The problem with Muslim terror is that there is an endless supply of angry, bitter, hopeless, sexually frustrated young Muslim men. Why there are so many angry, bitter, hopeless, sexually frustrated young Muslim men is because Islamic society makes them so."

Perhaps if Hasan had stopped looking for a veiled Muslim woman to marry and instead actually bedded down an easy female infidel, he wouldn't have been so frustrated. Certainly if he weren't Muslim, he would not have freaked out at the thought of being sent to fight other Muslims in Iraq or Afghanistan.

Here's a suggestion to the FBI: want to find future suicide jihadists? Forget about monitoring mosques or planting moles at Islamic charities; simply instruct exotic dancers, call girls and escorts to report to the authorities whenever any Muslim shows up for a lap dance or starts drinking alcohol or acts un-Islamic. It means the end is near.

ENDNOTES

Seven salient facts about Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan:

Slate, Hard Evidence

1) Hasan had been in direct correspondence with a notorious preacher of violence, Anwar al-Awlaki, whose enthusiasm for the teachings and actions of al-Qaida has long been well-known to researchers and intelligence agencies.

2) He bought weapons for himself well in advance of a murderous assault on unarmed soldiers awaiting treatment at a clinic—people to whom, in addition to his responsibilities as a human being, he also owed, as a physician, a sworn duty of care.

3) As he unleashed his volleys, he yelled the universal cry of jihad, "Allahu akbar!" or "God is great!" (The eyewitnesses on this point, originally doubted, are especially convincing since some of them didn't understand the meaning of the words and only sought to reproduce them phonetically.) On his business card, he described himself as "SOA" or "slave," or possibly, "soldier of Allah." Neither would be especially reassuring in this context.

4) He had attracted considerable attention by repeatedly using his postgraduate classes at the Uniformed Service University in Bethesda, Md., for the purpose of Islamic proselytizing, for a version of Islam that, to say the least, did not overemphasize it as a "religion of peace."

5) He had, in spoken and written communications, demonstrated a fascination with the love of death and the concept of suicide martyrdom (better described as suicide murder) that is the central concept of Bin Ladenism.

6) Though he may have been upset by the harrowing stories of returned soldiers—as many, many of us have been, incidentally—his overwhelming and reiterated objection to the war against the Taliban in Afghanistan, and al-Qaida in Iraq, is that it is "a war on Islam." It might be worth noting that this means that the Taliban does represent Islam, whereas the current governments of Iraq and Afghanistan somehow do not—a core belief of the Islamic purists who use the dogma of takfir to excommunicate such Muslims and render them liable, along with many other kind of infidel, to holy slaughter.

7) He seems to have been especially obsessed with the Qur'anic injunction that forbids devout Muslims to make alliances with Christians and Jews.

Titty Bar:

Infowars, 10 Nov 2009, “Devout Muslim” Hasan Frequented Local Strip Club

KILLEEN, Texas — The Army psychiatrist authorities say killed 13 people and wounded 29 others at the Fort Hood Army Base Thursday was a recent and frequent customer at a local strip club, employees of the club told FoxNews.com exclusively.

Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan came into the Starz strip club not far from the base at least three times in the past month, the club’s general manager, Matthew Jones, told FoxNews.com.

...

Jennifer Jenner, who works at Starz using the stage name Paige, said Hasan bought a lap dance from her two nights in a row. She said he paid $50 for a dance lasting three songs in one of the club's private rooms on Oct. 29 and Oct. 30.
