There are 4 pages to this story. As you read you will see other stories linked to this one about the Ft. Hood shootings. I want you to take a look at those as well.

Please then answer the following questions or comments:

1. What are your thoughts, feelings, etc, as you read these articles?

2. What role do you think terrorism played in this massacre, if any? Why? Do you think that there was an terrorist organization behind the shooting?

3. What role did racism or religious persecution play in this incident? Why?

4. Do you think a lot of Muslim Americans have the same feelings as this man? Why or why not?

5. What do you think the military could have done to prevent this from happening? Why do you believe this? Were there signs that this man had the potential to do something like this? What were they?

6. Talk about the leadership of Kimberly Munley (the woman who stopped the shooter). What did she do? How would you have reacted in the same situation?

7. What does this incident say about race relations in America? Specifically with Arab-Americans and Muslims? Is there a reason that Muslims and people from the Arab world feel a certain way about
America?

WHEN YOU ARE FINISHED, WORK ON YOUR 2ND LEADERSHIP ARTICLE, OR CONTINUE TO WORK ON YOUR PAPER, WHICH IS DUE FRIDAY!!!!
