US Army Major Hasan Guilty on All Charges
US Army Major Nidal Malik Hasan was found guilty of all charges by a unanimous board of officers.

Hasan is one of 12 attempted or successful attacks on the US military by those apparently motivated by their Islamic faith, four of whom were actually members of the US military:
- Fort Hood attack thwarted, PFC Abdo, two life sentences (2011)

- Fort Hood massacre kills 14 (Army Maj Hasan, 2009)
- Fragging in Kuwait by Army Sgt Hasan Akbar (2003) (death sentence on appeal)
