What Motivated the Murders?

After such a horrific tragedy at Fort Hood, now many are asking what could have motivated the alleged gunman. He is muslim and that has prompted some to wonder if his religious roots played any role in the rampage.

Those who belong to the same faith and worship just down the highway doubt that islam played a role. They say that even though Nidal Hasan did not attend the mosque he could not be considered a devout muslim if he did open fire on his fellow soldiers.

Some specualte that it was his fear of deploying overseas that may have motivated his actions. Hasan was to deploy to Afghanistan on Nov. 28th and apparently had tried to get out of doing that duty. He went so far as to offer to pay back the military for his medical training. 

The one person who could answer questions can't speak. Hasan remains hospitalized.
