In the aftermath of the tragic attack at Ft Hood, reportedly committed by a group of at least three servicemen, one of whom has been identified as a Muslim officer, Major Maliki Hasan, government anti-terror forces are hesitating to call it terrorism. Unless the other two arrested for it turn out to be Methodists, I think it's pretty clear what's going on here.

Perhaps waiting until all the facts are gathered before posting "conspiracy" vids. This only breeds fear and loathing before knowledge is affirmed.

That depends. Was the shooting done to further a political or religious agenda? Or was it the crazed act of someone who just flipped out?

From what I've read about him, he had some problems for a while. He had issues dealing with his psychiatry patients, and needed extra supervision/intervention because of it.
While the fact that he was a Muslim may have been a factor, it seems that the fact that he was an unstable person was just as big, or more, of a factor.
I wouldn't call it a "terror attack" either. His motives seem more personal. I'm wondering if the other two people who were detained will actually turn out to be involved at all.

No one else was arrested. Three other people were questioned and released. Such things often happen in the confusion following and incident like this.
That's why it's good to wait more than a few hours before deciding that you know "what's going on here".
