Muslim terrorist kills Army recruiter in Arkansas
CNN has more on the attack.A Muslim convert who said he was opposed to the U.S. military shot two soldiers outside anArkansas recruiting station, killing one of the soldiers, police said Monday."This individual appears to have been upset with the military, the Army in particular, and that's why he did what he did,"
Little Rock Police Lt. Terry Hastings said in a phone interview."He has converted to Muslim here in the past few years," Hastings said. "To be honest we're not completely clear on what he was upset about. He had never been in the military."
Hastings identified the man in custody as Carlos Bledsoe, 24, of Little Rock, who was going by the name of Abdul Hakim Mujahid
Muhammad . He did not have further details. The names of the soldiers were not released, nor was the condition of the wounded soldier.Hastings said the attacker pulled up in a car outside an Army-Navy recruiting office about 10:30 a.m. local time and fired. The two soldiers were outside the office when shot.

People have called this "sudden jihad syndrome." Clearly police need to investigate his religious teacher to see if there was any grooming for this type of attack. They should also be investigating his associates to see if others are of such a bent.
The soldiers who were killed were just out of basic training and had not been deployed.
For those who argue that some of the weirdos who have been arrested were not that dangerous, this story suggest they are wrong.
