Fort Hood Shooting - November 5, 2009
U.S. Army psychiatrist Major Nidal Hasan fatally shot 13 people and injured more than 30 others at the Fort Hood military base in Texas on November 5, 2009. Although the government did not label the attack an act of terrorism, many lawmakers at the time did, and a Senate report said the military should have been able to detect his radicalization to violent Islamic extremism. U.S. officials linked Hasan to the American radical Muslim cleric in Yemen Anwar al Awlaki and witnesses say Hasan shouted "God is great" in Arabic just before opening fire. A military jury sentenced him to death in 2013.
