allahu akbar
Soldiers, who saw the shooting rampage at Fort Hood, which left 13 people died said the gunman shouted "Allahu Akbar!" he shot fellow soldiers, Base commander said Friday.
As he laid out what happened, Cone lauded the soldiers on-scene who struggled mightily to help others. "In talking to many of the soldiers in the hospital last night," Cone said to Smith, "they reported almost a very calm and measured approach by the gunman, who went around and, in some cases, talked to one young man who was shot four times, and by the same shooter. And then when he thought -- he said, 'I made the mistake of moving, and I was shot again.'
"And ... how to change the direction of the shooter, the soldiers scramble on the floor and try to help each other carry each other outside the building. And at one point clear of the shooter, many soldiers began to run, walk outside and started shooting of the building a press and some of the fleeing soldiers when they try.
