Do No Harm

Two weeks ago I was in Iraq drawing cartoons for happy soldiers headed home  to Fort Hood. A few days earlier I had drawn troops, doctors, and other medical staff at Walter Reed hospital in Washington, DC.

Fortunately, I didn’t meet anyone like  Major Nidal M. Hasan. In 2007, as a resident at Walter Reed, Dr. Hasan gave a “medical lecture”.  You can read about it in this Washington Post story by Dana Priest.  Along with talk about beheading and boiling oil (UK Telegraph) he says, “we love death more than you love life”.

That kind of talk may cause you to miss your flight at the airport,  but Hasan was sent to Fort Hood as a psychiatrist.  At Fort Hood he gave away his possessions and, while shouting Allahu Akbar, allegedly shot 43 people, killing 13. His former Imam, Anwar al-Awlaki, on the lam in Yemen, called Hasan a hero.

I hadn’t figured on jihad in Texas.

As for claims that Hasan was just one more stressed out GI, David Ignatius, of the Washington Post, thinks the military “may be the most resilient part of American society right now”.

My technical staff has been working feverishly to push the right button to enable Comments.  I didn’t realize it wasn’t working.  I just figured I had millions of shy readers.  Anyway, it works now and it’s easy, so make a comment.

More Stuff About Our USO Trip

Posted by: Bok | Comments (1)

Okay. Here are my pictures from the trip. I recommend the slide show. I like it. We did a lot in a few days and I’ve been a little confused due to jet lag. For example I have no memory of staying over-night in Germany. But I do remember the shower door opening from a corner, same as last year. I may have lost my mind but I know I’m clean.

Thankfully, Mad magazine’s Tom Richmond has a comprehensive account of the entire trip.  As if he can be believed. However, I’m intimidated enough by his caricatures to accept whatever he says. Please go to his site to see what really happened. Thanks.

David Ignatius really rides with the helicopter swells.  And he knows what he’s talking about. Here’s what he had to say about the Sunday Baghdad bombings.

One more thing.  I’ve made it easier for you to comment.  The last time I did this I got Spamalot. So I shut it down which is why there aren’t many comments. If you’re still having trouble with it send an email to chip@bokbluster.com, Bcc’d to 500 million of your closest friends, and I’ll sic my technical staff on it.
