Nicosia (US): A video has praised the Muslim officer who shot dead 13 people and wounded 30 others in a shooting spree at a US Army base, saying he had "put terror and chaos in the ranks of the enemy," the SITE Intelligence Group said today.

Major Nidal Malik Hasan, who was due to be sent to Afghanistan, "did not accept dying in the war on his Muslim brothers; instead, he wanted to die fighting the enemies of Allah, the infidels who are fighting this Islamic Ummah (community of the faithful)," the unsigned video said.

"So we give congratulations to the Ummah for their jihadist operation executed by the brother Nidal Malik Hasan on the American base where he was working as a psychiatrist and recently (received orders to go Iraq), and he seemed upset and did not want to participate in this war, and he did not want to be among the ranks of infidels against his Muslim brothers."

He "did jihad (holy war) in that base and killed no less than 13 Crusader foreigners and wounded 31 and put terror and chaos in the ranks of the enemy," said the video, first published on the Fallujah forum and then picked up by other sites.

"This is the brother of Islam O America ... This is the son of Islam," it added. "So, America, we say to you again ... You will not have peace in your country until we have (it as a reality in our Islamic lands), and you withdraw your armies that invade the lands of Islam."
