No matter what the truth of the Ft. Hood shooting is, it will immediately have the effect of silencing the growing anti-war movement within the military...at least for awhile.
There have been many reports of soldiers of conscience openly speaking out against the lies of the current wars and refusing deployment. The shooting may force them to go underground or to just shut up.

Buried beneath the shooting story is the announcement that 2 more soldiers have died in Afghanistan.
