Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan is a psychiatrist who treated soldiers back
from war. in his own mind that he's saving peoples' lives," said
Garrett. "As illogical as that sounds, in his mind, that would be
quite logical."
As Hasan was about to be deployed to Iraq, he was suffering from some
of the same stresses that he was trained as an Army psychiatrist to
treat.
Although the 39-year-old had just been promoted to major in May, his
family says he had hired a lawyer to help him get out of the Armed
Forces.
"Apparently became very disgruntled in the mission in Iraq and
Afghanistan and voiced that to a lot of his colleagues," said Rep.
Michael McCaul (R-TX).
He also voiced it to the world in an Internet posting, where he
compared suicide bombers to GI's who save their colleagues by throwing
themselves on a grenade.
"Just keep in mind mass killers pretty much know they want to die and
they tend to take as many people with them as they can in a shooting,"
said former FBI agent and ABC News consultant Brad Garrett, who also
believes Hasan didn't want to survive the Ft. Hood shooting.
"It is one of those things where he went and wanted to kill a lot of
people and commit suicide maybe in his own mind that he's saving
peoples' lives," said Garrett. "As illogical as that sounds, in his
mind, that would be quite logical."
