Fort Hood shooter Maj. Nidal Hasan earned $90,000 a year as a military psychiatrist. A tidy sum for a man who hated his job and his country.
When you add in the special pay bonuses and military perks, his salary swelled to over six figures. He was making a nice chunk of change off of the military that he so despised.
According to online reports, Hasan lived “like a pauper” in an aging one bedroom apartment that rented for $300 a month. So where did all of his money go?
Hot Air has the answer:
Authorities have been examining whether Fort Hood massacre suspect Nidal Malik Hasan wired money to Pakistan in recent months, an action that one senior lawmaker said would raise serious questions about Hasan’s possible connections to militant Islamic groups.
Rep. Pete Hoekstra, R-Mich., said sources “outside of the [intelligence] community” learned of Hasan’s generosity toward terrorist organizations in the Asian country where Osama bin Laden is believed to be hiding out.
Wow, that sure makes us feel safe to know that someone in the military could send money to support terrorist acts against the United States and nobody within the so-called “intelligence community” caught on.
