Fort Hood Killer Applies to Join ISIS, Desperately Trying to Remind Obama He's a Terrorist

On some level you almost have to feel sorry for Nidal Hassan. As much as you feel sorry for a murderous terrorist who should have been hung from the nearest tree. He did everything possible before and after the attack to announce that he was a Muslim terrorist.
Nevertheless Obama, the new judge and the media refused to listen to him. Hassan became so desperate that he resorted to sending FOX notes announcing that he killed Americans at Fort Hood in support of the Taliban.
And still nothing.
Now he's trying to join ISIS. I'm not sure how much use ISIS has for a paraplegic who wouldn't survive 5 minutes without millions in taxpayer funding... but it's worth trying to find out.
The convicted shooter in the Fort Hood massacre has written a letter to the leader of the Islamic State saying he wants to become a "citizen" of the caliphate, in the latest example of the terror group's reach inside the U.S.
The letter from Nidal Hasan, obtained by Fox News, comes after two Americans reportedly died fighting for ISIS in Syria.
In the undated letter, Hasan — who fatally shot 13 people and injured more than 30 at Fort Hood in 2009 in what the Defense Department called "workplace violence"– tells ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi that he wants to join the caliphate.
"I formally and humbly request to be made a citizen of the Islamic State,"Hasan says in the handwritten document addressed to "Ameer, Mujahid Dr. Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi."
"It would be an honor for any believer to be an obedient citizen soldier to a people and its leader who don't compromise the religion of All-Mighty Allah to get along with the disbelievers."
The two-page letter includes Hasan's signature and the abbreviation SoA for Soldier of Allah.
That's the same abbreviation he was using on his business cards before the attack. In the predictable denial cycle, only conservative media outlets are covering the story. Must be airborne PTSD.
And the soldiers wounded by Nidal Hassan, a self-declared terrorist, still aren't being treated like the casualties of war that they are.
