CAIR condemns Fort Hood violence
CAIR website - November 6, 2009
The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has publicly condemned the acts of Major Nidal Malik Hasan at Fort Hood in Texas. Hasan opened fire on his fellow soldiers at the Texas base, killing 13 and wounding 30, including himself.
CAIR stated Thursday November 5 that they “condemn this cowardly attack in the strongest terms possible and ask that the perpetrators be punished to the full extent of the law.”
Muslim leaders who also condemn the attack were invited to speak at a news conference held at CAIR headquarters in Washington DC Thursday night.
