Fort Hood Tragedy: Lessons to be Learned

This book examines the brutal attack at Fort Hood on November 5th, 2009, allegedly perpetrated by U.S. Army Major Nidal Malik Hasan, which has raised legitimate questions about why such an event happened, whether authorities, both civilian and military, could have prevented such an attack, and the national security implications of this incident. Unlike any event since 9/11, it has also fuelled discussion about the spectre and threat of a violent extremist ideology in our midst.
