Senate committee report described scenario eerily similar to Fort Hood attack

They always know, yet they never know. We were warned about Pearl Harbor. Sixteen countries warned us. We cracked the Japanese code. We were warned about 9-11. Intelligence was "blinking red" warning of an attack. An FBI informant lived with the hijackers. NORAD staged wargames depicting the exact same scenario on the exact same morning. And now news is flooding in documenting prior government knowledge of Hasan and this attack. But it will not be enough to convince the brainwashed that our government stages terror attacks to provoke fear and outrage and support for draconian abuses of our rights. It's all just a string of cosmic coincidences.

More than a year before the massacre at Fort Hood, a Senate panel conducting an extensive investigation into the threat of homegrown terrorism warned that "radicalization" had spread beyond Afghanistan training camps to the United States and that lone wolves fueled by Internet propaganda would present a growing threat.

The Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee that produced the report is the same panel set to conduct what one lawmaker called a "no-holds-barred" investigation into Fort Hood, with hearings starting next week. Chairman Joe Lieberman, ID-Conn., has said he sees signs that alleged shooter Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan was an "Islamist extremist."

But the panel has been looking at the issue of homegrown threats for years, and its May 2008 report served up startling warnings, describing scenarios eerily similar to the mass shooting at the Texas military post last week, which left 13 dead and 29 wounded.
