Michelle Malkin presented a press release 2 days ago that C-SPAN did a report on how the role Islam played in Malik Nidal Hasan's massacre of Fort Hood was not mentioned in the Pentagon's report:

(WASHINGTON, DC) – House Republican Conference Secretary John Carter and fellow House Members will address the politically-correct scrubbing of the Department of Defense Report on the Fort Hood Shootings tonight on the floor of the House, after the 52-page DOD report was found to never mention “radical Islam” even once.

[...]

“The report flagrantly fails to admit the nature of the attack we suffered at Fort Hood,” says Carter, “and that failure bore immediate fruit on Christmas Day when we failed again to head off a planned attack by the same radical Islamic terror network, this time on a U.S. airliner. We even had similar forewarnings as with Major Nidal Hassan, which we ignored again. Had it not been for the misfiring of the terrorist’s bomb we would be mourning hundreds more today.”

The former Texas judge wrote Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates last week that he was “deeply disappointed” that the DOD report on the attack “not only ignored the clear radical Islamic facet of the incident,” but also failed to designate the attack as either an international terrorist attack or an act of combat by an enemy of the United States. Either designation by the Secretary would make all casualties of the action eligible for combat-related benefits and awards, including the Purple Heart.

Let's not forget that Gates was defense secretary under the Dubya administration, and now is continuing his pretentiousness under Obama's.
