Omar Sacirbey poses the question, “Did the alleged Fort Hood shooter lose control, at least in part, because he was sexually frustrated?” My question is, what has mass murder got to do with self control? No, no, no, I can’t hold it in any longer, I’ve got to – shoot 13 people dead..? Omar collates a range of opinion. –”All these men are so sexually deprived so much so that the sperm has gone to their brain, and they implode,” wrote Ani Zonneveld, a female Muslim activist– echoing Bin-Bazian teachings on masturbation. –”I’m skeptical,” said Kecia Ali, a religion professor at Boston University. People have tried to link Islamic extremism and sexual frustration for years, she said, but a causal relationship “was a bit of a stretch.”– It’s an absurd notion, Kecia. A more interesting interrogative would be this: why is the original question taken seriously? Brainstorming – confusing issue with relationship between extremist violence and hypermasculinity, the trend for psychological explanation, the relationship between racism and sexuality exemplified by phalloplethysmography…

Sexual frustration is one among many triggers that I don’t think should be completely discounted. In San Francisco, once in a while, they have this weird “parade” downtown in the financial district that makes a helluvalot of noise. No, it is not Gay Pride.
Palestinians and their supporters march up one side of town and Israelis and their supporters march up the other side. They meet along one street in the middle of the city. Palestinians are partitioned to one side and Israelis are partitioned off to the other side. Police on horseback and foot patrol the middle and the whole gathering takes up a city block. It is loud and very emotional. Every kind of over the top emotion is on display. It is quite upsetting even for the objective outsider. People yell and cry and curse the opposing side. This goes on for about 20-30 mins. Then everyone disperses.
I wondered what the point of this bizarre annual event was. And it struct me. This is a bloodletting. People are blowing off alot of the anger and violent feelings they have in the most innocuous manner possible.
Sexual frustration, especially among young men, can build aggressive and irritable feelings. Someone already unhinged could be pressured by lack of healthy social outlets including sex. Violence and sexual are primitive aspects of the human brain and system and they are unfortunately intimately related in brain structure.

Too true. People were often hacked to death my monks in the middle ages.

In addition to what Buzz mentioned, there is another important aspect about Fort Hood shooter that I wonder how/why reports do not foucus on which is his carrer as an army psychiatrist. He is not a normal citizen!

Do you remember that computer programmer who shot a bunch of women to death before ridding us of himself in Pittsburgh, PA a few months ago? All the media outlets said it was because he hadn’t gotten any (as he whined about on his blog). Women didn’t respond to this obviously creepy guy’s very needy neediness and didn’t sleep with him and so he had no choice but to hate them and kill them. I hope that’s not going to happen here (Oh, if ONLY he could have gotten married, those people would be alive today).

yeah….im pretty damn sick of this false equivalence, Fourth.
When Hasan enlisted in1988, the Bush Doctrine hadn’t killed hundreds of thousands of Iraqi muslim civvies.
One has to wonder if he was forced to listen to returning GIs tales of atrocity perpetrated against muslims as part of treating them for their PTSD.
Like being tortured, I imagine.

Yes, let us provide another Islam excuse for killing. How sad, how sad. It is never my fault when i do something wrong.

Hey Plimfix, people are often hacked to death in the name of Islam everyday! You dont need to blame someone else 500 years ago. Lets talk about sexual slavery today as promoted by Islamic men between Africa and The Middle East. Where are you balls!

we have chattel slavery of women and children in this country.
the conservative movement seeks to restrict womens rights over their own bodies every day in this country.
And google Yearning For Zion. … the southwest corner of my state is infested with filthy polygs practicing “spirit marriages” to get around anti-polygamy laws.
South Carolina refused to pass the woman’s suffrage amendment until 1970.
WECs that live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.

To compare the politics of rights of women in the USA and the real slavery and traficing of over One Hundred Thousand children and women being sold in Africa and the Middel East is just illistrates your desire to ignore the truth. Well I am not surprised you existence depends on ignoring the truth. Oh yes tell me that some WEC is making them sell women and children. I am sure its not Islam.

Like I said, idiot.
Glass houses.
We were a slave nation, membah?
When will you ignorant godbotherers get a clue that IT ISN”T YOUR FRACKIN’ BIDNESS??????
The US sowed these dragons teeth.
The bitter harvest will be with America for a long, long, longlonglong time.

Now your a slave buying nation. I guess you like that better. The only thing yur a slave of is Islam. Free your self man. Lets see it only takes 36 states to ratify the 19th Amendment and make it the law of the land in 1920. When the other states ratified is meaningless. And how about the girls of Islam are you still stoning them to death? Gee thats right out of the dark ages. I am a free women (black) and American.

Adonna, how about you black chicks free yourselves from the enslavement of materialism? You know, cashing those welfare checks so you can make 10 year payments on that Escalade with 24″ dubz of yours? Free yourself from the victimization mentality that Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton have forced you morons into? Even Bill Cosby has called out victimizing twats like yourself for the morons you lot are.
Generalizations are a bitch, aren’t they? If you can’t handle the heat, then step out of the kitchen.
Note: I’m not really a racist and I only resorted to making these posts to give Adonna a taste of her own medicine. I’m not racist if I have numerous color TV’s, each with different colors you know?

We black girls have been that way in history. We have learned. Now we know abuse when we see it. And it looks like Muslim men. Sorry Dan. No vail here. But its been fun talking.

lol, so you are an ignorant black godbotherer.
That doesnt give you any validity….it just makes you extremely rare….and possibly a member of teh Angry Estrogen Posse.
Was some man bad to you Adonna?
you sound like that other wee black chick, Aayan Hirsi Ali.
lol

A lot of African-Americans don’t consider Somalis black anyways so sucks for Hirsi Ali

There I was, 16 responses to one of my blogs, thinking – woo, hoo, some intelligent debate about an issue I’m interested in. Whoops, apparently not.

Well…it was an irrelevent post.
Dr. Major Hasan wasn’t sexually frustrated……he was tortured into insanity by a fail system that would neither treat him or let him leave.
It had nothing to do with sexual frustration or al-Islam.
The mission changed to causing vast quantities of muslim deaths and Dr. Major Hasan could neither support that or……leave.
Shams al-Nahar 7:38 pm on November 24, 2009 Permalink |
There is going to be a trial.
We will learn first hand of Dr. Major Hasan’s attempts to leave the military, and of their refusal to allow to.
The truth will set you free.
